A French work recently published
maintains that every 10,5U0 years, the
waters Of tile sea pass from one pole to
the othor, submcrging andoyerwhelm-
ing in their passage the earth and all
its inhabitants. According to the au-
thor of this theory, NJ. Paul deJuuven-
eel, the last OF these deuges occurred
4 500 years ago; the next one is due in
5000 years more. NJ gouvencel re
counts this great cosmiciIl drama with
the vigor and pictorial effect OF an eye
witness Six thousand years-sixty
centurics--then, only, are lett to us
wherein to do our whole worlds work,
and to complete and perfect that civil-
zation which has yet hardly dawned
on the greater number Of mankind
Sixty old men touch hands across the
interval between the present moment
and the last hour of the world us it ex-
lists; then all will be finished all con-
sumed, all will disappear! The sea for
10000 years in its undesirable depths
will crush out our history and leave
nothing OF 1t all but few fossilsl : so,

A painfully intense excitement was
experienced by hundreds of people
living along NiagrR river on Tuesday

being towed out of Chippewa Hsrbor
by the tug Buffalo, the line by which
she was attached to the tug was bro
ken by the strength of the current and
she was swiftly carried down toward
the rapids above the falls. The cap
tain and two men on board saw at
once that they werein imminent danger
---hnving' neither anchor nor small
boat, ana being in such a position that
no one dared attempt theirreseue from
the shore. BY this time hundreds Of
people were gathered along the banlss,
expecting nothing else than certain de-
struction to the vessel and here crew;
but when within couple Of hundred
yards Of the commencement of the
rapids, the cool head of the Captain
conceived an idea which saved the
lives of the whole party as woil ss tho
