Xovr we are to have an important branch of the public service employed in aid of agriculture.

The powe-rs of the Siguiu Office have been enlarged by thc act of Congress of June 10, 18713, and extended to the more immediate interests of agriculture. Appropriation is made by that act for the expenses of storm signals, by telegraph, announcing the probable approach and force of storms throughout the United States, for the benefit of agriculture as will as commerce. To aid in the accomplishment of the object, the Chief Signal Officer has issued a circular to agricultural and horticultural societies, inviting any suggestions or recommendations to perfect the system now established, and 'to render it more directly useful to tlie agricultural interests, and suggesting that the best mode in which such societies can operate with the Signal Officer in tho matter is by the appointment of permanent committees to confer occasionally with the Chief Signal Officer, and to take, iu conjunction with him, such steps as may be desirable. A large number of societies have already responded to the request of the Signal Officer, and appointed the committees as proposed! It is not to be understood that these committees are to take meteorological observations or make reports for the signal service, their only object being to obtain their practical cooperation through correspondence and conference. an experienced supervisor.

Ihe pared food is to be sold at cost to the working women in shops, replacing their present cold dinners with cheap, warm and excellent rneids.

But even though negroes know that the time of the carpet-bagger is short. The foremost of them are running for snug quarters in the Senate, but they do not expect to keep their hold on their States, they do not grasp after the combined political power of their section. They do not figure in Federal politics, aud will not attempt to figure, except as they will sell their votes for every land-grab, every subsidy for internal improvements, every slnp-buUd- job, and every runt if all internal entries for the last ten heart disease appears to be on the increase in the royal naval service.

Tho anvil of the weight requires but tci bv 800 men, who are immediately after allowed two hours rest, because of the extreme heat to which they are necessarily exposed. A Scraping Match.

One of the most novel matches ever witnessed in Chicago came off recently-- At last authority we as is Intemperance I are to have a recognized to what constitutes the iuteinperato use of intoxicating liquors or drugs. It has been a mooted question in society, among physicians, and in the courts for many generations. But now Congress proposes that the filial standard shall be affixed by the Secretary of War. The House has passed a bill declaring that no officer of the army addicted to the intemperate use of intoxicating drinks shall bo entitled to promotion, and consequently the Secretary of War to decide the question. We may then have an inny standard of just how much liquor nay be consumed without reaching the intemperate degree.

Whether fortunately or unfortunately, it is probable that tlie standard will be an extremely liberal one. Mr. Roberts, of Now York, made a suggestion that the bill should include members of Congress, but it was not received--whether because the army standard would still be too illiberal for Congressional guidance, or for some other reason, was not Kjn'h iug tanfl scheme of the protectionists, like the repeal of tea and coffee duties and abolition of all internal revenue. But the Credit Mobilier Congressmen are the foremost men in the whole Ke- publican party.

Tn the States east of Ohio and north of Maryland, the growing of wheat has in most localities given way to thc raising of other crops, the sale of which will buy more flour than the land will produce.

This is of course less the case toward the western odge of the section mentioned, and very notably increases toward the coast, where, as in Massachusetts, tho annual yield of is only a fraction of the quantity consumed by the population. But it is witnewliat surprising to find that California, with its vaunted advantages for wheat-growing, should show a decided tendency tin 1 same direction. From published statements before us, it appears the area in wheat in that State yields only an average of nineteen bushels to the acre, while barley gives thirty-five bushels, aud oats forty-five bushels per acre. The cash value of the yield per acre for each of the three crops is set down respectively at and from which it will be seel that barley vields in dollars nearly ouc- iiftb, and "oats nearly one-half more than wheat for a given average.

One. member, defending th practice, said The commission of the seppitku is owing to a natural sense of shame being deeply rooted in the heart. It is a national custom founded on what is due to the national sense of jubtu-e and to Japan as a nation." Another declared: "By death thc criminal barely restores himself to his position as a human being. If he lives, he is a scoundrel; but if he dies, he for the first time manifests a senbe of shame. To prohibit the seppuku would be to close tlie public path of honor, and throw open the paih of scoun- drelism." A third asserted that so far from being prohibited the seppuku should be eiiconraged, by this means a sunbe of shame fostered, and the custom bo made famous throughout the world as an example of devotion to principle.

Meal from the kitchen was procured and sprinkled over the floor. Young ladies had to bo lifted bodily out of their tracks, in some instances leaving their heels on the floor, wliile others were pried up with pokers, uttering little shrieks as if it hurt.
