From the Philadelphia InTulTer)
All the world knows that cast Of the
Gulf Of st. Lawrence there Is an island
with shallow banks on its coast, upon
which dense fOgs settle, to the alarm and
often TO the dClrimcnt Uf the mariner. II
is also generally known that there arc lur
animals there, and noble dogs almost as
large and majestic rs lions. Those who
care to know may further lind that this
island has very numerous haTbOrs and
considerable rivers; that the soil is excel.
lent, There urC bold cliffs, lakes and
ponds in thcintcrior. "ThG banks swarm
with cod aud almost every other variety
Of fish, aud the grand bank Is GOO miles
long by 200 miles broad. The island II.
self averages $50 miles in length by 1850
miles in breadth; contains $1,000 square
miles, and has population OF 100000.
The distance from ST. Johns, on the east
coast, to Galway, IN Ireland, Is but little
over 1900 miles The whole island is
rapidly rising from the sea, and will, be.
lore very long, join its banks, which are
also rising. These arc patent facts,
and their PRONUNCIATION, ii they were
not widely known, would hardly allure
acttlors, To make itave llOurishing COun.
try, but there ia product until now but
little known, as to lis great extent, and
but little worked, which promises very
prosperous future to New Foundland.
While the question Of n supply OF coal is
acitaling England TO its centre, excellent
supplies in great seams, easily workable
are reported In New FOundland, and the
word merhGp,tijie is applied to each
scam. One OF these is in the immediate
vicinity Of ST. Georges Bay, on the Cult
Of st. Lawrence, and u railroad across the
island, already Unprotected, would make the
coal available for locomotives, for steam
rrs on tho gulf and steamships on the
Atlantic, and supplies of coal could bC
conveyed in GvcryadircCtiOn. Thus, it /:
not not unlikely that New FOundland
lust now a sort of tlshy Outskirt oI
America, may become a successful coun-
Try, full ,of mechanic, art and social cul
lurc, and, the now inhospilablC shore will
altract u large population, in whose hand:
lish and coal shall bless the world and
enrich the happy island.

fabrics were sought for, and suitings Of
certain makes were sold to arrive Doe
skins continue to be well sold up In some
iavorite makes, while others remain in.

for himself good position.
Julian Hawthorne, who has a clever story in
the last number OF AppIetons' Jotrndl-and who,
indeed, seems to be rapid and inexhaustible
teller OF tales-is busily engaged in writing a
novel. The scene is laid among the Berkshire
hills OF Massachusetts
Among the later foreign novelists the ope
VINO seems most torcibly to attract and hold
American readers is Mr. Geo. Macdonald HI
great popularity is just now illustrated bv ths
fact that already before the issue bv ScTibnar

our case, supported by Messrs. Adams, Evarts,
and Gushing, it either must be very bad one,
or the Commission very unfriendly to our claims.
There are no three Americans superior in the
qualifications required for these responsible du-

selected, and, as Harper remarks, the appoint

The greater part Of these debts-indeed, prac-
ticaly, the whole amount, has been incurred in
the construction of works of public improvement
which either pay interest on the loans or are
more valuable in sanitary aspect than can be
measured in money. Thus, about one-half Of
the debt OF Cambridge was incurred in the intro
duction Of water. Five sixths Of the increase of
debt in charlestown was for permanent improve

OF two and half millions is in the water loan,
which is nearly paying Investment.

our resources, or expend money on unworthy
objects, but it is an example to us of the action
taken elsewhere by men of cool Judgment, and
high municipal ability
