It was a battle . royal fo .'th bulls and bears, and the former , bore away the honors as a result of the full day's , .rading. The day had been looked forward to with unusual trepidation, and it was generally deemed it would mark a crisis either for a much lower range of prices or to compel the bear ele ment to cry a halt for any further breaking of prices. It was deemed that a further sharp de cline would bring down a great many houses, as the strain has been one of unusual tension, prices touching figures never before known in the history of the grain trade at this season of the year. The opening scenes on the trading floor were of the most exciting character and of a panicky tendency. Two or three small houses, long on wheat and who could not carry their holdings any longer, threw them on the market at its opening and accepted prices fully lc under the lowest figures of the preceding day. Rumors of the failures of these firms also added to the nervous feeling during the first thirty minutes, but following that the market generally showed more steadiness. Throughout the entire ses sion, however, trading actions were of the heav iest possible description, large blocks being of fered and taken readily, and while there was a lull in tbe predominant activity of the wheat crowd when prices would sag a little, values rose steadily, and with them came an air of confi dence, which was expressed at noon, that if there had been any danger of a pinch it had al ready been passed. The confusion attending the opening of the wheat market was such that sales in various parts of the crowd varied S4@lc. To follow out orders to sell at the opening one would have to accept the best bid made in the vicinity of the seller, as the uproar was of such a character as to prevent operators from knowing the nature of transactions in distant parts of the crowd. The wheat market opened l@l^c lower, but rallied with some fluctuations 2c abowinside prices, receded %c, rallied lc, and finally closed about %c lower for May, x^c higher for June and J4c lower for July than yesterday. March and April sold down to 81% c, up to 83 %c, closing at 83%c; May sold down 86;4@86%c, up to 88%c, and closed at 88%c; June sold down to 88c, up to 90%c and closed at 90%c; July ranged from 88}4@91%c and closed at 90%c. On the call board the scenes of activity were re newed, and 2,700,000 bushels sold at an advance of %@l%e, May closing at 89c, June 91c and July 91 %c. Outside sales of May wheat were afterwards reported at 89% c. There has been a better demand for cash wheat since yesterday af ternoon, and from 750,000 to 1,000,000 bushels were taken for shipment, supposedly for export. The market for corn was moderately active and somewhat unsettled, ruling lower early, but ral lied subsequently and closed steady.

Less speedily fatal, but not less cer tafnly so, is the vitiation of the blood of which tbe first symptoms are Pimples, Sties, Boils, and Cutaneous Erup tions. When the taint of Scrofula gives warning of its presence bv such indications, no time should be lost m using Ayer's Sarsaparilla, the only perfect and reli able medicine for the purification of the blood. SCROFULA Is a foul corruption in the blood that rots oat all the machinery of life. Nothing will eradicate it from the system and pre vent its transmission to offspring but Ayer's Sarsaparilla. This prepara tion Is al30 the only one that will cleanse the blood of Mercurial poison and the taint of Contagious Diseases. Inmover is tad blood is productive of AN/EMIA, A wretched condition Indicated by Pallid Skin, Flaccid Muscles, Shattered Nerves, and Melancholy. Its first symptoms are "Weakness, Languor, Loss of Nerve Force, and Mental De ?ection. Its course, unchecked, leads nevitably to insanity or death. Women frequently suffer from it. The only medi cine that, while purifying the blood, en riches it with new vitality, and invigorates the whole system, is Ayer's Sarsaparilla, PREPARED BY Dr. J. C. Ayer & Co., Lowell, Mass.

According to Joshlin, fishes have been caught at depths where they must have sus tained a pressure of eighty tona to each square foot of their bodies. The Bpectrum of the Pons-Brooks comet has been examined by Mons. Trepled, of Al giers, who finds it to be practically identical with the spectrum of an alcohol flame. A disease parasite has been found In the 'common onion by Mons, Joannes Chatin. It hss been examined by Mons Pasteur, who finds it to be similar to the parasite of mil dew in wheat. Plants which are attacked should be pulled up and burned. A committee has been appointed by the Royal Society of London to collect the vari ous accounts of the Krakotoa volcanic erup tion and attendant phenomena. This committee may be able to prove or disprove the theory that the red sunrises and sunsets have been caused by volcanic dust. A French scientist, Mons. Duchatre, has shown that moonlight as well as sunlight may have an influence upon plant-growth. Seedlings of lentils, vetches, etc., which had been kept in a dark place, at once began to bend towards the moon when expoaed to its light, and continued to move with it. An observatory provided with instruments for studying earthquake phenomena has been established in a Japanese coal mine by Prof. Milne of Tokio. As the mine runs under the sea, the influence of the tides in depressing the ground will be included among tbe ob servations, as will also the conditions attend ing escapes of fire-damp. Impure Food in Fkance.— Of 3,301 samples of wine examined at the Paris Mu nicipal Labratory in one year, more than half were found to be bad, while 202 were positively dangerous. Of 1,807 samples of milk and cream, 542 proved to be bad; and of 71 samples of fruit preserves, no less than 25 were pronounced dangerous. Of 92 sam ples of water, 62 were condemned as danger ous. A Pigmy Race.—Dr. Emin Bey has made some measurements of the Akkas, the small people discovered In Africa and first de scribed by Schweinfu/th, and finds that when full-grown their heights range from four to four and a half feet, The skin of the Ak kas varies in color from a clear yellow to a glistening red, and their bodies are entirely covered with a thick, stiff and filthy growth of hair. They live in numerous distinct tribes, have no fixed abodes, and are a hunt ing people, skilled in the use of the bow and arrow. A land of ice.—Baron Nordenskjold convinced himself last summer that he was wrong in supposing that the interior of Greenland was low land free from snow and ice during a part of the year. The view that the country is one of glaciers is confirmed by Mr. Edward Whymper, who has just given some particulars of his own observa tions. He found the height of the interior in the latitude of Umenak (about 70 degrees 30 minutes N.) to considerably exceed 10, 000 feet. From various mountains on the eastern side of Davis Straits he has had views of the whole of Greenland's interior between abjut 68 degrees 30 minutes and 70 degrees 15 minutes, and has seen, no break or de pression within those limits of latitude, while the country is everywhere so deep in snow and ice that no rock or crag is visible. Elevation ofthe Northern Lights.—Dr. Sophus Tromholt thinks that the long-mooted question of the height above the earth at which the aurora borealis appears will soon cease to be one of the unsolved problems of nature. It is evident that aurora, like clouds, float through a certain thickness of the atmosphere, and only approximate esti mates can be made of their usual altitude. Dr. Tromholt has calculated the heights of the lower edges of eighteen aurora from measurements of their position made simul taneously at two stations of Northern Europe about 66 miles apart. His results range from 47 to a little over 100 miles, the average being 70 miles. He admits the possibility that aurora may sometimes very closely ap proach the earth's surface, but states that he has never seen any portion of one below the clouds, although he has long watched for such an appearance. Geological Discoveries in the Holt Land. —A geological exploration of the Holy Land has just been completed by an English party under Prot. Hull. The ancient mar gins of the Gulf of Suez and Akaba were traced to a height of 200 feet above their level, showing that much of the cuntry was submejged and has been gradually rising. This rise of land must have caused the separation of the Red Sea from the Med iterranean, and Prof. Hull believes that those two bodies of water were connected at the time of the Exodus. He thinks he has also discovered that the Dead Sea, whose remark able depression gives especial interest to the geology of Palestine, formerly stood at an elevation of 1400 feet above its present level, or at 150 feet above the level of the Mediter ranean. The survey is said to have furnish ed materials.for the construction of a much more satisfactory geological map of the Holy Land than has hitherto been possible.
