Corinne, says:
Three gentlemen from London, on
their way for Hong Kong, stopped in
town night before last. 10 China and
Japan the Pacfic railroad offers route
from London ten or twelve days short
er than any other, and affords the
traveller the pleasure Of passing the
continent of the United States in re-
view from Boston or New York to
San Francisco. Think Of it as a pleas
ure trip; thIrty-five hundred miles over
every variety OF scenery in the world.
from the highly -cultiyated slopes and
valleys of Massachusetts, to the gloomy
eorges of the Rocky Mountains, the
cloud-compelling peaks of the same
the Dead Sea, the Mississippi prairies,
the Great American Desert and the
American Andes thrown in as side
shows! With the completion and
equipment of the road, the trip will
be very agreeable, personally,-what
with good eating-hoases and hotels
along the roae, sleeping, and hotel
and silver mounted cars.

Worthy of Imitation.

The Prebendary gives us this admira-
BILE discourse of French Capuchin, who
on the Festival of St. James had to pro.
nounce a panegyric on that Saint. As
he was rather late, the attendant priests
who feared that he would make long
sermon and SO weary the congregation
cntreated him to abridge it. The monk
mounted the pulpit, and addressing the
people, said: 3" My brethren, twelve
months ago L preached All eulogy OH the
eminent apostle whose festival you this
day celebrate. AS doubt not but that
you were all very attentive to me, and
as have not learned that he has done
anything new since, 1 have nothing to
add to what 1 said Mt that time" He
then pronounced the blessing and de.
scended from the pulpit.

passed by the body Of which he was a

bis remains to his late home, supposed to
be, of course, somewhere in North Caro-

body, it is said, and at last accounts
were en- route for the State of Vermont
where the deceased had lived. He
had been "sojourning" in the old North
State long enough to be elected to the
legislature,
