Prof. Nordenskjold writes that, al though unable to give a decided opin ion at present, he thinks a vovasre along the northern coast of Siberia, iron tue Atlantic to the Pacific Ocean, might often bo performed by. a steam er special 1 j- fitted out, and manned by an experienced crew ; and that such a voyage would occupy, only a few weeks. The condition of the Are tic Sea, so far as hitherto explored, would, nowever, deprive this route of any commercial value.- lie has no hesita tion in affirming that (he trade routo from Europe to the Obi and Yenisei may be regularly adopted for commer cial purposes. In all probability the route between the Yenisei and the Le na may be considered open to navisra tion; but a return voyage between n.uropc and the Lena could scarcely be accomplished in the course of sum mer. Prolonged explorations will still be necessary before the question as to the possibility of communication, by means of sailing ve-sels-between the mouths of tlicLenaand the Pacific Ocean is finally determined. Scien tific American. Tne Pigeons of Venice. ' Everbmly has heard of tho pigeons which nock daily to the famous Square of St. Mark's, in Venice, to be fed, and many Americans have seen them rest ing upon the shoulders aud arms of the woman who dispenses their daily bread to them. Many are the stories told of their origin ; how their ances tors served the republic by bringing back news from its fleets, and so on; but none of them are very well estab lished, except that the birds have al ways been regarded as town property, "and have been fed out of a fund set apart for that purpose, which is now said to have been a donation from the Countess Policrasto. Until lately it would have been thought little less than sacrilege to touch a feather of them, but recently a Venetian boy was discovered carrying off a pigeon, evidently with a view to pie. The case was carried into court, where it was decided that the pigeons had never been legally conveyed to the town, consequently they were nobody's prop erty, but, so to speak, wild fowl, aud that boy was only following his natural instincts in catching them, and must be acquitted. The Mound Builders. Dr. Gustavo Bruehel of Cincinnati has contributed to a German paper in that city an article on the excavations of tho Indian graves near Madisonville. He says of the discovery of twenty two skeletons in the graveyard : "As all of the skeletons were those of males, many of them pierced by spear head3 - that still cling to the bones, and as several of ihe skulls show deep impressions, seemingly caused by dull instruments, perhaps war clubs, it may be concluded, almost with cer tainty, that these skeletons arc the re mains, of fallen . warriors, who were buried here after a bloody skirmish. After this important discovery the re sults of the excavations becamo more and more favorable, and there were dis covered separate graves, and around ash heaps about 200 skulls, several hatchets and axes of granite limestone, flint spear heads, hammers, stone balls, Eolishing stones, scrapers, knives, pipe owls, a piece of hematite pierced in the centre,- harpoons of deer horn, fish hooks, needles, awls, and a flute of bono with three holes, ornaments of mussel-shells and of caunel coal, ono of them in the shape of a butterfly wing, many well preserved vessels, in numerable potsherds, valuable relics which the society has - distributed among the members. The pot-like vessels bulging in the centre, with rim bent outward, and often decorated, are of various sizes, and are made of a mixture of clay and pulverized mussel-shells. They, were made without the help of the potter's wheel and are not glazed. . Most of them have two or four handles, but one has eight, in two rows, one above the other. The simple decoration con sists of sunken straight, oblique, or zig-zag lines, semi-circles, and grouped graven points. It is noteworthy that each vessel contains several pierced mussel-shells, and that they are only found with those skeletons whose heads lie toward the cast, while they. aro lacking with all tho rest; that the children's skeletons always have them, and that in these cases they are found with mussel-shell ornaments. "Very interesting are the pathologi cal specimens found among the re mains, for several show unmistakable signs of bone-syphilis. On tho knoll belonging to the graveyard there aro oaks nine and one-half feet in circum ference, and beeches eight and one half feet, pointing indirectly to the great age of the graves; but these do not shut out tho possibilities that the buried remains were not given to tho earth until after the arrival of Euro peans. "Oue fact deserves special mention, namely, that neither iu this graveyard nor iu any of the earthworks of this group h.ive any copper tools been found, the only pieces of that metal being two small cylindrical pierced pieces, perhaps the remnant of a string of beads. Every additional explora tion shows more and more the untcn ableuess of the heretofore favorite, tiy- o thesis that the Mound-builders aud nd ians belonged to diflereut races. Neither the form of the skull nor the form of the vessels show any material difference, except, perhaps, that tho Mound builders vessels are more per fect, because these belonged to a set tled tribe aud were more civilized than their wandering brethei'ii."

What the Inter-Ocean Man Says of Oar cotiTCUiion. HE THINKS IT'S PART SHERMAN. Special Telegrams to The Inter-Ocean. Columbus, Neb., May 20. The con vention which assembled at 7 o'clock last night continued in uninterrupted session until nearly 5 o clock this moi ning. The result was a triumph of the anti-Grant element, and the election of six delegates favorable to Blaine The second choice of three of three ef these delegates is Grant, Sherman of one. and Wushburne of the other two, The Grant men. finding themselves in the minority, mads the long night fight to divide the delegation and the fight under the leadership of James Laird, of Hustings, was a gallant one. Laird is a young man, but an orator of great power, and roused at one time in the early hours of the uioruing to an im passioned appeal for the cause of the minority, lie electrified the conven tion by a burst of eloquence unlik-, anything ever heard on Nebraska soil, and which would have been worthy ol Ingersoll himself. It made him the'he ro of the delighted Nebruskans who heard it, and its effect was such thai on the motion he made to proceed by a secret ballot to elect delegates to Chicago from the judicial districts (which have given Grant three of the six delegates), a sufficient number of the opposion voted with him to wipe out the opposition majority. Th's was carried in the shape of an amendment; but when the counties were called, on the motion as amended, enough Blaine men recovered their tquilibi ium to de feat the measure by three votes. It is asserted by his friends that ex Congressman Lorenzo Crounse, now collector of internal revenue, and one of the delegates, is for Sherman, and, as the delegation is not instructed, he will so vote in the Chicago conven tion. Pat. O. Hawes, a Sherman man from Omaha, claims that four of the delegation are Sherman men. Washington, May 20. Private tel egrams Iroin Nebraska indicate that Secrtary Sherman will have three of the six delegates from that State, which is a surprise to everybody; that Blaine will have two, and Grant one. The delegates w ere not instructed, and will vote according to their own indi vidual preferences. TLis is another se rious backset for the Blaine people, although the Senator thinks the entire delegation will vote for him. The Blaine men have been confident of se curing Nebraska, and it has been con ceded to him by the Grant men. No one expected Sherman would get a vote in that State. . To the Western Associated Press.

Toronto National. Princely Penuriousncss. Correspondence Philadelphia Telegraph. Some of those who were honored by invitation to meet the Prince of Wales at Hughenden have not scru pled to affirm that their host is failing as much mentally as ho is' known to bo physically. Lord BeiconstIeld is said to be far from the man he was a year ago, and life at his country seat is de scribed as ''portentously slow and., pompously dull." Tho witty word and sparkling repartee were conspicu ous by their absence. Lord Beacons field, it is said, spoke but seldom, and when he did veutuie a remark it par took more of the nature of a thinly disguised platitude than, of tho so bril liant epigrams which used to .drop spontaneously from his lips whenever he ojicned-his mouth. Taken all round tho Hughenden visit was rather a failure. II. It. II. is fond of high play, and Lord Beacon sfleU'a face is said to havo grown ludicrously long when his royal guest proposed sovereign points at whist. Ajuudncss for cards prevails . among the royal family. I am told, but they do not all loso their money so gracefully as docs the heir-apparent. The Duke of Ed inburgh's meanness has' passed into a proverb, and ' has done far more to make him unpopular thau tho fact of his marrying a Russian wife. He gets savage at losing.

Protecting Cheese from Mould. Livestock Journal It is often difflculf to protect cheese from mould, especially those that Inve cracked. The Weiuer Zeitung gives Dr. Engilug'8 plan. He dissolves or digests a spoonful of bruise pepper, two teaspoonfuls of salt, and tha same quantity of. borne ic acid, in a quarter of a pint of brandy for a few days, then filters the fluid through a cloth and dilutes with an equal quantity of water. Some of the preparation is in troduced into the cracks of- tho cheese, by means of a feather, or, better, with a small glass syringe. If places which have been nibbled bymico aro rubbed with this liquid, no mould will form. This will put "jumpers" to flight, and greatly assist in preventing auy decay.
