Jm.i. f A San Francisco paper having ' recoiitlv stated that California wheat is deteriorating, K. H. "VaJkw, statistician of the pro-, duet exchange, said to-day that . this statement iwed create no alarm a.-, to U: emi iiiry supply of wheat, eithr for consumption o- export, as the deterioration ol the California crop would liave no material effect, except in re turns to the fwimei . TJlie wheat kernl would not he quite well filled, and hence would iuK make lame a nei eentatre of Heur: ':t the lots ly shnnkag-e would th IIad of Asceusiiai in the not he srreater than a pouul iif a(auUmii of Jo77. The method bushel. The cause of this de- i this deteriuinatiou was oririn;il tei location he altrilu4t to t'.ie ly proposed by Sir (.leorge Airy, impoverishing of the landby grov-' in 1857, ami consisted in utilizinjr imx upon the same land, yenrafiei the rotation of tin earth as year, the aue kind of emp with-j the means of viewing the out the use of fertilizers. The planet from two separate stations, same system is practiced to a large instead of employing ttro ob extent on the northwest lands, and t servers at different points of the richness is taken from the sod. earth's Surface. Thus the ob f there were rotation of crops. J rvatio could at all be made by or if fertilizer were used, the soil the same observer, seeurinir. would be kept in good condition; but the fanner, anvions to make every cent possible, spnied every itMii of expense. This was the cause of the deterioration of the land in New Eng land and in California for wheat growing purposes, but now the farmer practice either a rota tion of crops or "summer-fallowing;1' in other words, let the land lie over one. season and sow in clover, and when it has attained its summer growth, plow in for fertilizing. Walker stated that the estimated wheat crop of the Tbiitod States for 1SS1 is about 480,000,000 bushels, of which Cali fornia and Oregon would furnish between o0,000,000 and 55,000,000 bushels, but of this amount Cali fornia and Oregon would require for seed about 1.500,000 bushels, and for consumption for au esti mated population of 1,000.000, -1,000.000 bushels. For the rest or the United States there would be required about 50,X)0,tH)0 bush els for seed, awl 500,000.000 bushels for consumption for a population of about 50.000.000 of people.

Mr. Gill had previously satisfied himself of the accuracy to be obtained in measur ing the angular distance between two neighboring celestial objects by" the heliometer. and obtained from Lord Lindsay the loan of a very fine one. with which lie was familiar, having used it in the tran sit of Venus expedition to Mau ritius, and (being aided by a vote of money from the Astronom ical societv) transported to Ascension.
