A NEW WEATHER SraSAL.-We see by
an exchange that 1t is proposed to es.
tablish, by means Of cannons and tele-
graphs, signals during the harvest sea-
son to announce the approach Of storms.
These signals can be so arranged rs to
declare the direction and character of
the coming storm, and to notify farmers
who are cutting crops. Il is estimated
that moro than one-fourth Of the grain
and hay crops Of this country are annu-
ally injured BY storms during tho har-
vest, and that the damage to the crops
In Europe and America during the last
season, which might have been saved a,
a small cost, amounted to the enormous
aggregate OF $500, 00o, 900. The plan
proposed for the storm signals is a,
simple as il is practicable, and can BE-
made available along the coast for the
benefit Of commerce by warning ships
when to seek places Of safety and y
prepare for coming storms.-colsm6l'

A JocULAR BE%SEDIorIoS. = Mark
Twain, in a recent letter to the Chicago

IVAN, IN u EeC6nL lcIleE W tue SulSukV
Republican, perpetrates tho following:
Once in Washington, during the Winter,
Riley, a fellow-correspondent, who stayed in
the same house with me, rushed into my
room In scanty costume-it was past mid
nieht-and said, "Great God, what can
the matter be? What makes that awful
smell !"
said, "Calm yourself, Mr.. Riley. There
il no occasion for alarm. You smell about
as usual"
But he said there was no joke about this
matter-the house was full OF smoke-he had
heard dreadful screams-he recognised the
odor Of burning human flesh! We soon
| found that he was right. A poor old negro
woman, q servant in the next house, had fall
en- ON the stove and burned herself SO badly
that she soon died. It was a sad case, and
| at breakfast all spoke gloomily Of the disas-
ter, and felt low spirited. The landlady
even cried, and that depressed u still more.
She said:
"Oh, to think Of such a fate! She was 80
good, and 20 kind, and so faithful. She had
worked hard and honestly in that family for
twenty. eight long years, and now she 10
roasted to death-yes, roasted to a crisp, like
30 much beef"
In a grave voice, and without even the
shadow Of q smile, Riley said: "Wsll done,
good and faithful servant"
It sounded like q benediction, and tho land
lady never perceived tho joke, but ! never
came 30 near choking to death in my life.
