xsOr readers win probably be surprised to hear
that: :Mormonism fourishes in the neighborhood d

and influence. On Tuesday last they gave q con-

TheNew Orleans Crescent says well-dressed
man. whose; appearance and manner indicated him
tobe an Englshman, amused himself recently by
aRoWing 5 terrier dog, which accompanied him, to
din Tor rats in the new levee embankment in the
Third District. The dog showed himself efficient
in the hunt, and succeeded in SO thoroughly un-
dermining the bank thatit occupied all of Wednes-
day morning to repair the damages, and was con-
aidered for time to be cause for apprehension for
q break at that point. Owing to the occurrence
not having been noticed at once, the party was not
arrested.
The Memphis Aualanche says that there are in
that city fourteen gambling houses, each Of which
I'M &o4 Thara
are nineteen brothels. Their contribution to the
police is SIS each month. Each inmate pays an
additional $40 every month. A short time ago 8
very bold robbery was committed 81 400 were
stolen. By appointment q policeman met the rob
bers at gambling house, to obtain the share of
the police. It being difficult to effect division,
the money was sant out and changed, the police
man waiting the return Of the messenger.
Count B1sMARcK recently presented poor but
faithful secretary with q portfolio bound like a
book, in which were deposited five Thousand tha-
lers. On meeting his secretary the next day the
Count asked him if he had perused the volume.
tsYes, your highness," said the secretary, ssend
am 80 captiyated by it's contents that am waiting
the appearance Of the second volume with feelings
OF the greatest interest" The Count smiled but
said nothing. A few days afterward the secretary
received second portfolio, bound and filled like
the first, and on the title page Of which was the
sentence, sThis work is complete in two vol
mes."
The new charter for the University OF London,
concerning the examination Of women, is drawn
with such a breadth Of expression as To admit not
only OF examinations such as those of the Univer-
sites Of Oxford and Cambridge, which would be
useful to goyernesses and Others and test general
education but also OF special examinations for de-
;yrees. The British Medical Journal says 'This
would, Of course, be opposed under present cir
cumstances, although We believe that the legal
members of the University are willing formally to
admit ladies to examinations and diplomas in law,
and the medical members would not oppose their
admission to degrees in medicine. We understand
that many more ladies are desirous Of admission
to the bar than seek an entrance into medical
practice"
A Montreal (Canada) paper, Of the 18th, says
In official circles there is an uneasy feeling as to
the possibility of Great Britain being drawn into
The vortex of the coming war in Europe, and the
money market thereby becoming so stringent as to
prevent the international railroad loan and other
loans on provincial account being raised. It is
also apprehended that if Great Britain were to go
to war with Russia on The Eastern question, the
United States, as the ally of the latter, would at
tack the British North American Provinces, thus
drawing all the disposable British troops to this
continent and leaving Franco single-handed to
fight Russia. In such case, British Columbia
would be lost. AS to the cession Of Russian Amer
ica it was at first hoped here that the treaty would
not be ratified, and now the possession is ikened
