Our Brave Sailors At Marse-
lilies

Particulars have come to hand of
the gallant conduct of the officers and
men of the American feet at Marse-
lilies in saving the shipping in the har-
Dor, and possibly the city itself, from
the destroying flames. An Italian
vessel laden with petroleum, from Phil
adelphia, took fire in the night whites sur
rounded with forest of shipping which
formed almost continuous mass of
combustible matter to the crowded
wharves and to the very houses of the
great French emporium.
While the startled citizens and the
hundreds of foreign sailors in the har-
Dor were almost paralyzcd with fear,
not knowing what to do to avert a
calamity like that which visited the
harbor of Bordeaux some months be-
fore, boats were seen shooting out one
after another from the vessels of the
American squadron. They pulled
directly for the burning ship, and in a
moment a score of brave men boarded
her, dartcd down the hatchways almost
in the midst of the flames, scuttled
her hull 50 that she would sink in II
few minutes, and then returning to
their boats with the alacrity Of the
true Yankee sailor, attached their
boats to the sinking craft and towed it
into the open bay to sink. A shout of
admiration from the rescued people and
OF gratitude to their quick wittcd and
brave-hearted deliverers resounded
through the midnight air in the har-
Dor of Marseilles, and our brave sal
lor boys became the heroes of the hour
with the demonstrative Frenchmen
An exploit like this reflects infinite
credit upon the men who achieved it
and gives assurance of GOODNESS and
daring which would make the lesser
victories of war sure to fall to them
should the hour of trial come.

Geological Talk About Niagara,

Before the lecture began on Tues
day evening last, Professor Cunning
gave his audience little talk about
Niagara.
Ten years ago, he said, he had stood
on Prospect Point and looked search.
ingly at the American fall. Within a
few days he stood there again, but
what he saw did not answer to the
image his mind had carried FIR tn
years. The rim of the precipicc is
more indentcd. Here and there mass
of rock has fallen, leaving notch, the
beginnings of a little horseshoe. The
great horseshoe itself has changed =
At the point of deepest water and
deepest green the curve is deeply
notchcd. Any observer whose knowl-
edge of the falls covers only a few
years will see that they arc recccding.
The recession has been very slow,
the speaker thought not more than six
inches a year. At this rate of re-
cession il would have taken $4,000
years to cut the channel from Lewis
ton to the present site Of the horse
shoe. The speaker drew a section Of
the river bank from Lewiston upwards,
and showed that seven groups Of
strata come TO the surface between
Lewiston and the falls. The rate Of

A despatch from Yokoham, Japan,
dated April %, says BY an imperi-
al decree the Tenno of Japan has
abolished all edicts directed against
Christianity, which have been in force
for over three centuries. This is the
voluntary act Of generous and en-
lightened sovcrein, who, scrupulously
regarding the interests and safety of
his people, rescnts any foreign dicta-
ton touching the internal affairs of his
empire, but willingly aspires to lead
them in his own way as apidly as is
consistent with the nature of radical
changes towards the full benefits of
civilization uniform, with that of a
scientifically developed nation. This
result has been delayed by frequent
embarrassments which the government
encountered from the persistent inter-
ference Of certain foreign missionaries,
who systematically baptised criminals
convicted of infamous crimes, and then
attempted to avert just punishment
under the laws by raising cries Of
Christian persecution and invoking
| foreign interference.
