THE FATE OF THE PAcIFlC.--The New York
Courier and Enquirer publishes diagram showing
the position of the ice fields in the Atlantic, re-
ported by the various steamers, and arrives at the
conclusion that the Pacific dashed against this
ICY barrier with impetuous speed, and that de-
structlon was the inevitable result" The article
contains the following passage:
neither living or dead we cast no word of
reproach against Captain Asa Eldredge, the COM
mander of the Pacific If, in spirit Of emulation,
he exposed his ship and life to hazard he only did
as they have done who in his profession are every
where regarded patterns of prudence and ability
Captain Judkns, Of the Persia, escaped nerrowlv.
Captain Lines. of the Arago, struck heavily on ice.
Captain Stone, of the Arabia, exposed to inl-
mnent peril from contact with ice. While Captain
Comstock, of the Baltic, and Captain West, of the
Atlantic, were in positions which caused the greatest
apprehensions.
"On the 18th of March, 1884, the steamship
President sailed from New York with thirty passen-
gers, and was never again heard OF. In that year
ice was several times reported, and the belief IS
general that she was destroyed by an enormous en-
counter with ice. On the 10th of March, 1854,
the steamship City of Glasgow sailed from Liver
pool for Philadelphia with more than four hundred
souls on board, and has never been heard of. She,
too, is believed to have been destroyed by ice, for
in that year there were more vessels that reported
ice than had ever been known before. Ice is the
great enemy which ships propelled by steam have
to fear, and TO form of construction seems to afford
security. The President was without compart-
ments, the Pacific was partially provided with bulk
heads, while the City of Glasgow was perfectly d-
vided by water-tight bulkheads
1.-THE money value of the Pacific and her cargo
was about two millions of dollars, and the loss will
fall heavily on the underwriters"

PETER GRIP AND THE UNDERTAKER-Peter
Grip amassed large fortune by loaning money
at five per cent. per month. A short time since
he was afflicted with severe attack of pneumo-
MIA. His doctors had given mp all hopes of his
recovery, and communicated the fact to him.
He Immediately dispatched a messenger to the
grave-digger. That worthy functionary atten-
ded, and the following dialogue ensued between
him and Mr.. Grip;
care you grave-digger ?"
eyes sir"
"What do you charge for burying man %
"Ten dollarss VIII you give me bill of
your charges!"
alt is easily made out. charge five dollars
for digging the grave and covering it up, and
five dollars for the hearse."
"Five dollars for hauling man from here to
the grave yard! Why, never heard of such
charge! l can get a hogshead of molasses
hauled up from the wharf for twenty cents,
and that will weigh ten times as much as man {!
Can't you take less!"
"No the city council allows me to charge
that much, and think it little enough. "
s.The people of this town are leetle too
smart anyhow. In Dauphin county, North Car
DINA, where came from, they never thought
Of charging man to bury him, I suppose
can't employ q dray to haul me out?"
az guess not; for if you did, the drayman
would be subject to fine of ten dollars
"Well old fellow, can't you fall little times
are hard"
"No not one copper, for guess when the old
fellow sends for you, you'll have to pay it, as
I've no competitor" ,-.
81 can't afford it, and amt a going to nei-
Their, so you may travel, old Skinfint.'
After the grave-digger left, Mr.. Grip solilo-
pulsed:
81 don't care what the doctors say, if I'm to
be shaved in that way, I'll not die at all !"
And sure enough, he is again to be seen sit
ting at the door, looking for some poor unfortu-
nate man with constable after hin.

"PHoSoGRApHT.-Phonography is the last inn
provement in and the only perfect system Of short
hand writing; it can be written with speed equal
to the most rapid speaking; is as readable COM
mon print, and in the case Of proper names, all
new terms, and phrases from foreign and even I'M
known languages, much more SO; is already used
for epistolary and other writing by thousands Of
delighted and Jealous advocates in this country and
in England; and must ere long, to great extent,
perhaps altogether, supercede the common long
hand"
The above is definition of photography, and
we propose to furnish your valuable department
with series Of short articles in explanation and
proof Of the positions here taken. Also to defend
any Of the above positions from any attack that
may be made upon them, as we think the cause
demands Ky.

STATUE TO LAFAYErrE.-A correspondent Of the
London News writes under date of February 49,
from Rome, as follows:
"The Americans in the Eternal City met together
on last Friday, at commemoraton dinner given in
honor Of Washington. About sixty gentlemen,
residents and visitors, sat down to the table, the
office of chairman being filled by the Hon. Mr.
Quincy, formerly Mayor of Boston and member Of
Congress. Mr.. Quincy moved proposition for
raising funds towards the erection of a statue at
Paris to the memory Of Gen. Lafayette, with whom
he had been acquainted during the Generals resi-
dence in the United States. A committee of ways
and means was nominated with instructions to enter
into communication with the United States Minister
residing in Paris, and find out what degree Of sup
port the plan might expect in that quarter. 1t is
probable that should the undertaking be realized,
Mr.. Crawford the American sculptor established in
Rome, will be charged with the execution of the
monument.
