CAPT. BADGEJl'S "JUDGMENT'
AND "WHAT HE "BELIEVES'
Washington, Jan. 20. R. D. Ilar
rison, superintendent of the Halena,
Montana, assay office, reports to the
treasury department th?.t he assumed
the duties of his office on the Sth, and
lias commenced the purchase of gold
bullion with greenbacks at par.
Washington, Jan, 20 The presi
dent has nominated Wm. G. Thomp
son, of Iowa, to be chief justice of the
supreme court of Idaho.
Montreal. Jan. 20. Alderman
Wm. Clondenning (iron founder), has
absconded with 20,000 cash; liabili
ties half a million dollars.
London, Jan. 20. A dispatch from
Lahore states that various unauthenti
cated rumors arc current that Shore
All-is returning to Cabul,
Oorruna, Spain, Jan. 20. The
Spanish steamer Yurac J3at, from
Baltimore via Liverpool, arrived here
in a damaged condition. She reports
colliding with the British sailing vessel
Lancashire Witch, which sank with all
on board. The steamer's bows are
broken.
London, Jan. 20. Six engineering
firms at Huddersfield have locked
out their workmen for refusing to con
sent to an extension of the hours of
labor. The North Wales miners' asso
ciation has resolved to vote 7 to any
member of the union who desires to
emigrate to America, and 14 to emi
grants to Australia. Notices were
posted Saturday by the iron trade em
ployers' association in the ship-building
yards and foundries in Liverpool
of a reduction of wages of 7 per cent,
after the 31st of January. It is
thought that the men will strike. At
a meeting of the Great Northern rail
way employes, Sunday, the men
pledged themselves ro oppose any re
duction of wages. The decision of j
the directors of the road will be ruadc
known on Tuesday. Six cotton mills
at Preston, running 1S3,144 spindles,
have given notice of a reduction. o
wajjes from five to ten per cent.
London, Jan. 20. Capt. Badger,,
of the United States frigate Constitu
tion, says that, judging from the time
he had sailed, he supposed he was
twenty-two miles from the- English
coast when he struck. He believes
that he must have been carried oiit of
his reckoning by the current. After
getting afloat the ship had a narrow
escape, as the tow rope broke when
passing the Needles. One of the Con
stitution's boats capsized on the
Cowes, and its two occupants were
rescued with difficulty.
Prof. KnaprTs Predictions.
Florida Jianmr.
The fact that so many fish arc
dyiiifir oft the coast of Florida calls
to mind the awful prediction of
Professor Knapp. From the jux
taposition of certain planets to our
earth he predicts that one-half of
the population of the world, in
cluding man and all kinds of ani
mals, and even vegetable life, will
perish before or during the year
lbSO. In a lecture delivered several
years ago he said that this desola
tion would commence by the fishes
of the sea dying, and pestilence and
famines occurring in southern lati
tudes. The famine in China and
the yellow fever scourge in the
south, and now the fearful pesti
lence among the fishes in southern
waters, are so many steps in ful
fillment of Prof. Knapp's prophe
sies. "We express no opinion on
this subject, but simply state the
facts; our readers can draw their
own conclusions
. JW ."

YIXTER.
The fly has fluttered his final fit.
And buzzloness snuggles the bee,
While the our a seldomer message sends,
With his hind-foot unto the Ilea.
The winter is here ! ha, ha ! he, he !
And white, is (he tangled heather,
And soon will the pedagogue snow
balled be,
Which is no bald assertion either.
The construction of steeVolad
turret ships is the next step to be
taken by the British admiralty.
A vessel protected with a thick
ness of from fifteen to twenty
inches of steel will be a ve costly
concern, but if the effort be con
tinued of making ships of war re
sist heavy shots; recourse must be
had to steel. At the tanret tests
at Spezziah, the one hundred ton
Armstrong gun belonging to the
Italian government, easily projec
tiles through the heaviest iron
used; but, though the shot cracked
the steel plate there was no pene
tration. Tony Rosenthal has got
home to San Francisco from
Munich. Tony says that socialism
has got too strong a hold through
out Europe to believe tfiat it is
not dangerous and that only 430,
000 bayonets hold a terrible revo
lution in check. It is certain to
break out sooner or later. The
people are terrified m all parts of
Germany. They are banishing the
leaders, but it is too late. The
great fear in Germany now is that
the defection will extend to the
arm'. It is this fear that has
caused the recent rigorous action
of the government. The revolu
tionists are very bold, and if they
had arms they would be over
whelmingly strong. They are
desperate and determined, and a
terrible outbreak is certainly ap
proaching. When it comes it will
surpass the French revolution in
lajjiiic, piunqcr ana savage
I cruehy.
