No REpTILEs IN NEwFoUNDLAND.-As a
natural and somewhat curious feature, it is
mentioned that the island Of Newfoundland,
though abounding in game, is not infested
with reptiles. The absence OF snakes and
toads 10 Ireland, for many years has been
the subject of comment, but we believe the
peculiar condition Of Newfoundland has at.
tracted but little general attention. Captain
Chearlney writes:
"Iu Newfoundland there is not snake,
toad, frog or reptile of any sort. There is
not squirrel on the island, no porcupine,
moose or mink, whereas, with the exception
of the porcupne wanting in Cape Breton,
Nova Scotia all these creatures are found in
the neighboriog provinces The Arctic hare
is found in Newfoundland, but neither i'll
Cape Breton nor Nova Scotia.'' .l-
Captain Hardy, an English officer, calls
attention to other deficiencies. He visited
the island in mid summer, and could not help
remarkipg the fact that 6refies we're not to
be seen there. while in Nova Scotia they
swarmed by thousands their scintillations
adding beauty to the pail Of quiet night
The island is full of bogs and swamps, which
renders it more difficult to account for the
total absence of reptiles. aa45 e-

SOUTHERN DEsoLAr1oN.-The desoa,ion
OF the South is thus pictured by traveller
passing from New Orleans to St. Mary's, ]
felt as il in funeral procession for over a
hundred miles. This vast country once the
Eden of America, is desert over which the
weeds of mourning flourish and the clouds OF
sorrow weep. The verdure fspring enchants
the woods and wi|ds as of yore, bnt industry is
unseen in the fields and commerce unielt on
the waters. The orsnge and plantan are
green in the groves, and the palm and the
myrtle are bright in the gardens but the
plantations are uncultivated, and the once
hosptabe homes have no hand to extend
welcome to friends or strangers. The ruins
Of mansions are oveygrown with thorns, and
thousand walls once vocal with songs and
machinery, now stand as gloomy symbol;
of conhagration. Along the railways, by
the river and bayous the same sad scene o
malevolence and wanton destruction is con
tinuaIIy visible. The numbers of ofsugar-miIIs
and houses needlessly burned is. very great,
and the utter ruin inflicted without cause,
is intellectually vast. Not one third of the
farms are being worked, and but few that
are will produce much sugar; several
years labor being chiefly required to produce
seed; perhaps onetenth of crop will be
produced, not more"

saw one lady with bonnet of daisies, and
another who had on her head handful of
lilies OF the valley, festooued with green
ribbon. If it really is anything bonnet
can scarcely be less than few lilies of the
valley, which at Florence would cost half a
Paul. Another lady had wreath of wall
flowers. OF the last | will only say mon

cialIy my lord" and my LADY," but the
others were sweetly pretty, and that such a
something as that "li'Iy" bonnet could come
ont of nothing is, must confess, a wonder
of art. There was, too, dust colored dress
and bonnet, the latter having in it two great
natural roses, which were worth paying the
grand stand ticket to see. Certainly some
French women can dress. it they can do
nothing else. Not that turn against my
own eountrywomen. No. As in ST. James
street you can get better dinner than on
the Boulevard, so in the Park you can see
greater show of beauty than in the Bois, and
for the same reason-the raw material is SO
