Canada's Future.
New Yens, Aug. 16—The Herald's Wash-
ington special. says Senator Cullom feelsthat
the time is coming when Canada's presence
on our northern border will be a standing
menace to our peace and prosperity. The
Illinois Senator is not an alarmist, nor
in he at all given to sensationalism. He
is, on the contrary, one of the most clear-
headed and conservative men in public
life. But he thinks we have reason to
fear Canada's growing greatness, both
from a numerical as well as a material
standpoint. "It was for this reason,"
said Senator Cullom yesterday, "that I
introduced my resolution on Friday last
to investigate and report upon the number
of railways in this country which are
owned or indirectly controlled by the Cana.
dian Pacifio and Grand Trunk railways.
I think 3vhen the facts become known it
wilt surprise some of our people to learn
how much of the carrying trade to this
country is diverted from its legitimate chan-

TRADE WITH CHINA AND JAPAN.
"Already, I am told, nearly fifty per cent.
of the merchandise brought from China and
Japan to America is carriedby a line of sub-
sidized Eoglish steamers to Vancouver Is
land. There it is transferred to the Cana-
dian Pacific railway and carried as far east
ae practicable, and then reshipped to its des-
tination by Amea'sc: n lines. All tbis is
working an injury to our transcotinental
railways, and it ought to be remedied,
These steamships and railway lines can un-
derbid us. They are subsidized by the Brit-
ish Government, and if they can divert our
commerce from regular channels they pro.
pose to do it until they have driven us out
of the market, when they will remain mase
ters of the situation. Moro than this, their
linesof American rail-
ways,influence with certain

large interest therein, is such that they are
able to freeze outnew enterprises of this
character which might otherwise Dome into
competition with them. This strikes me as
carrying their imprudenoo a little too far.
It is these and kindred facts which we pro•
pose to thoroughly investigate,

terinii atiou of the innumerable rabbite that
are driving the farmers and wool -growers
from their land, Chinese immigration has
been discouraged by tax, and it is poseilrle
to shut out the Chinese altogether by treaty
and legislation ; but how can the rabbits be
dislodged ? Thus far the use of alldevices
and the expenditure of millions have failed
to bring relief. "The peat is more virulent
and a xrenaive than ever," said a committce
of the New South Wales Agricultural Anne
dationin a report recently laid before the
Premier of dee colony, Official reports show
that in the three years and a half ending
December 31, 1880, there was expended in
the war against the rabbits upon only 205
agricultural holdings in that colony by the
tenant* themservee $1,079,410, and by the
Goverment $1,094,450 Since the end of
1886 the payments of " scalp -money " have
greatly increased, The number of rabbits
killed fer the bounty last year in this• one
colony was 19,182 5539, and the bounties paid
in that year have been estimated at $500-
000, In addition millions of dollars bane
been paid! for hundreds of miles of rabbit -
proof fence. These Sores show how great
the burden is. And still the rabbits seem.
to be as numerous ae ever.
The offer of a reward of £25,000, by the
Government of New South Wates for nonce

M. Pastern to propose the infection of the
rabbit hosts with the microbes of chicken

plan and spoke of the departure of three of
is agents for Australia with a supply ot
microbes preserved in bottles. Before the
arrival of Drs. Hinds., Loir and Germout at
ydney, interesting experiments with the
!1

s is n as scaba
y Prof, Watson of the Adelaide 'Meyer
city and Ise was confident that the destruct•
ion of the rabbits could bo accomplished by
Means of this disease. Brat the colonial au-
thorities oflie eared that it
South Austro t
would besommunicatedto sheep. Afterward
similar experiments with another disease
were made by Dr.. Ellis and Dr. Butcher
ata place called Tintinallogy, and these gen-
lemen also assented that they could do the
work. The farmers of New South, Wales
had suggeatoif that. the Government should
refer the subject to a commisaion composed
of a pathologist chosen by the Council of
the Rnyai College of Physicians in London,
a veterinary surgeon selected by the Lon-
don Veterinary College, a' pupil of Pasteur,
and an expert recommended by Profs. Vir-
chow and Koch, of Berlin. This suggestion
was not followed, but the New South Wales
Government did appoint an Intercolonial
Commission of experts to enquire concern-
ing the eahemes proposed by M. Pasteur,
Prof. Watson, and Drs. Ellis and Butcher.
This commission was instructed to enquire
as to whether the introduction of disease
among rabbits by inoculation or otherwise,
or the propagation of diseases natural to
rabbits, for the purpose of destroying them
or promoting their destruction, would be
accompanied by danger to human or animal
life." The Sydney Board of Health was
required to report concerning the same ques-
tion.
Tho Board of Health made an investigation
and its report was not favorable as to the
three diseases suggested.°• It declared that
the disease propagated by Drs. Ellis add
Butcher, and by them called marasmoid, had
not been pathologically defined, and that its
effect upon the human system could not be
foreseen. No proof hes been offered that
the "scab" propagated by Prof. Watson
would not be communicated to men, and
much clearer and more convincing evidence
would be required to show that the remark-
ably fatal disease of chicken cholera might
not directly or indirectly produce among hu-
man beings disastrous results at present
unsuspected."
At the beginning of their session the
Commissioners were of the opinion that if
no disease then existing in Australia would
suffice, no new disease ought to be intro-
duced. Afterward, however, they resolved
that it was expedient for the New Sout
Wales Government to set aside an itland
for experiments with importer" diseases an
an island tract for experiments with import
ed diseases already prevalent. For those
last named tests six tracts of from fifty
one hundred acres each were selected, an
the work was intrusted to Dr Kutz, a
expert bacteriologist. Redd Island wa
chosen for tltib teats of Pasteur's chicks
nholera, and lit was provided that sheep
cattle, horses!!" pigs, cats and other animals,
as well as chilkens and birds, should b
fully exposed there to infection. Th
Australians signet intend to sacrifice the;
n herds and finks and all their wild bird
for the sake M exterminating the rabbits.

There are in the whole celestial sphere about
6 000 stars visible to an ordinary good nye:
Of these. however, we can never nee more
than a fraction at any one time, because
half of the sphere is always below the her;•

as easily as in the zenith, a half of th
whole number, or 3,000, would be visible o
any clear night. But stars near the horizon
are seen through so great a thickness of at-

Volcanic Eruption.
SAN FRANCISCO, Cal., Aug. 18.—The
steamer City of Sydney, which arrived last
evening from Hong Kongg and Yokohama,
brings Japanese journals containing par•
neuters of a volcanic eruption of Banda; -San.
On the morning of the 15th alt, the smaller
Bandai•San trembled and roared violently.
Almost immediately atterwards ashes began
to fall and the eky suddenly grew dark, and
the rumbling sounds continued, accompanied
by violent earthquake and flare of dazzling
flame, The crest of the smaller Banda; -San
appeared to be lifted bodily upwards and
thon to fall again with a tremenduons noise.
Then followed showers of red mud, mingled
with large atones. Ahoy e the mud fell a
few inches of ashes. In the five villages of
Iwase, S_'osad, Wakamiya, Minato, and
Etibera, the greater part of the houses were
buried to a depth offrom seven tag twenty
feet. The state of the .bodies recovered is
terrible. It is searcoly possible to dill.
tinguish between men and women. A few
corpses were found suspended in the
branches of trees, which had caught them
as they fell. Up to the 17th the number of
bodies recovered was 476, It is believed
that 81 are still entombed. The wounded
number 41, Eighty-seven houses were die-
