Fy the eleven months ending Nov. 30, 13°4, the total number of immi- vans entericog the United States according to Mr. Nimmo’s calculations, was but 440, 361,—the number for No- ‘ember being 26,039. For the cor- responding eleven months of 1553 the pomber was 526,430, and for Novem- her ‘83 it was 35,393. This shows a large and increasing falling off which Grit journals, that have so much to say ubout thedecreased immigration into ‘‘apada ir 1884 as compared with 1853, will take good care not to mention

The latest theory of malaria is that ihe principal source of the fever and ex- haustion is to be sought in the slowly but cumulatively poisonous influence of the relatively large amount of car bovic acid in the atmosphere of ma lnrious districts, generated by veget- able decay, by evaparation of soil mois- ture laden with it, or by upturning of enith saturated with that compound. Recent measurement of the carbonic acid in the soil, as compared with the umount present in normal atmosphere, have shown that their relative propor- tious are as 250 to 1.

The London Telegraph says the Nica raguan Canal! will be ef untold advan- tuge to mankiod opinions as to the advisability of Bog

America in preference to any other Power. It can bardly be Lord Gran- ville’s desire to quarrel with Americz over the long forgotten Clayton-Bulwer Treaty, to which tew Englishmen attach very great importance. England has no irterest in forcibly opposing a canal

across the Isthmus of Panaima,by whom- | soever corstructed, with proper previ-|

sions. A wise Euglish Government will preeeive that its interests lie in just the opposite direction.
