This innocent look ing craft quietly floated with the tide until it struck the Loa, when it exploded, tearing the Chilian vessel to pieces mid killing nearly ail on board. A few weeks later, in tbc port of Chancay, the Chilian sloop of war Covadonga picked up at sea wli.it appeared to be an empty boat, which, on being hoisted aboard, exploded and sunk the Covadonga in few minutes, only four of h,er crew being saved.

While the rapidly increasing man ufacture of glucose is a benefit to farmers in that it affords a growing market for their corn, the abuse of the manufactured product is be coming a serious injury to them as well as to the rest ol the community. Analyses made in dif ferent parts of the country show that the adul teration of sugar by glucose is largely on the increase. If the glucose were pure, no effects injurious to health would result Iroin its use; but as its sweetening capacity is considerably less than that of cane sugar, it-t employment would be a fraud, inasmuch as it is estimated that fifty cents' worth of corn would produce five dollars' worth of sugar at present prices. Moreover, the glucose used as an adulterant is rarely pure, and consequently is generally un healt'hftil, causing dyspepsia and similar dis orders. Formerly the presence of glucose in sugar could be detected by a sticky feeling, so that granulated sugar might be considered free from it; but the art of adulteration has made such strides of late that now fine-look ing specimens of granulated sugar are found on analyses to be badly but skillfully adulterated with the product! Nearly ail candies and other "sweet-stuffs," as well as honey and nearly everything into whose composition sugar enters are similarly adulterated, aud from the frauds thus perpetrated on the public the far mers are as great sufferers as the rest of the community.
