Wisconsin is rejoicing in an exhibit of
growth through Governor Franchild's
message, over which she has reason to
be proud The liberal measures adopted
for the promotion of immigration, the es-
adjustment of manufactures and the
growth of railroads, have brought wealth
into the State and developed its resources
to an extent that astonishes those who sit
and wait with folded hands for such re-
suits to come without seeking or working.

The London Times in noticing the in
crease of iron ship-building in the United

the growth of iron vessels that steamers

sailing ships on the northern rivers in ten
years time will be as rare as stage coaches

P. At one time during the session
DR.. B was begging for some object,
perhaps literary institution, when he
enthusiastically INDUCED in some mirth.
full remarks, probably to put the expected
donors into a good humor. Mr.. p,
who had very precise views of the propri-
cites of the house of God, bore this strain
of remarks as long as he could, when he
arose, with very solemn countcuance and
in very solemn tone inquired of the
chairman whether such conduct should be
allowed in such place. Then turning to
Dr. B, he said: How much better,
my brother, to make the people weep-my
brother to make them weep" The doctor
stood unmoved and erect during this ap-
peal and reprimand. When it was ended,
looking over the assembly, he said with a
sober face and in whining tone: My
brother wants you to weep" Then sud-
denly turning to Mr.. p, he added
Will you weep, brother PIP The
effect was irresistible.

nJ~ Among the most important dscov-
cries of the German Arctic expedition was
a new land, about thirty,six miles east of
Spitzbergen, and situated north of the
seventy-seventh degree of latitude north.
This new territory is larger than Spitzber-
gen, and presents very wild and rugged
appearance, being filled with almost per-
pcndicular mountains and cliffs.
One Of the results Of the expedition was
the discovery of immense coal beds in the
north of Greenland. Mountains exceed
ing Mount Blanc in height were discov-
cred, and the botanical specimens found
indicate that Greenland must have been
covered at one time with rich vegetation.
