The Ocean Steamers and Gas.

1t was deemed great feat in England
when the railway carriages were lighted
with gas; but now it seems the ocean
steamers are to have the same boon.
Tried in one of the great steamers which
ply from Liverpool to New York, it has
been settled admirably, although the
vessel ENCOUNTERED severe weather. The
saloon is said to be lighted up as brilliant.
ly as any ballroom. Here is certainly
good news to those that must cross the
Atlantic in the winter moMhs, when the
evenings are long, and when darkness as
well as cold drives the passengers below.
Hitherto they have exchanged the gloom
of the deck for the semi. gloom of the
cabin; and what could they do by the
aid of the lamps, which sent out a ftful
light? To read has been impractcable,
unless the book has been pushed against
the scanty flame, and the experiment is
seldom tried. The passengers must either
eat, drink, play at whiss, or go to bed, and
they usually do all four things in rapid
succession. Some, however, eat and
others drink all the evening, because they
cannot see to read or write. But the dark
ages have now passed away from the
saloon, and the hours will be spent amid
the full blaze of civilization. Nor need
there te any more danger of fire then
there is at present, for gas pipes can be
made as safe as lamps, and the manage
ment OF the great passenger steamers
which sail from Liverpool is a model of
caution. In those which ply upon the
Mississippi or the Hudson it is deemed
safe to leave uncovered lights about,
despite the copious arrangements for
"liquoring up" and ofcourse, the huge
structures are occasionally burned to the
waters edge. But the Cunarders permit
no such lamp erlng with fire. They are
governed by beneficial despotism, which
acts upon the principle that the passen-
gers cannot safely be trusted with facilities
for lighting their own pipes after certain

A FOOlhardy Voyage.

A letter signed "Charles B. Inman"
has appeared in one of the Calcutta
papers, stating that the writer intends
to make the voyage from Calcutta to
England, by the Canal, in small boat
80 feet long, eight feet across the beam,
and about two and half tons burden,
schooner rugged fore and ait sails, and
full deck. When the writer purchased
the boat she had been condemned as
useless; he had her repaired, and en-
gagged crew of five lascars, all of whom
deserted him when the time came for
him to make his experimental trip to
sea. Left without crew, he resolved
to put to sea himself with dog, and
he now processes to have gone up the
rivers into some of the widest parts of
the country-in all, during twelve
months, not less than 1900 miles
with the sole companionsnip of his
dog. He says he has enjoyed the life,
and that, to all appearance, his dog has
enjoyed it equally, especially where
there was occasion for quiet meditation
in lonely scenes. He voyaged through
the malarious Soonderbunds without
having days illness. He had room,
his letter stated, for one passenger to
England. A Calcutta boatman at once
accepted the offer, and the two are said
to be preparing for the trip.

The Horse Disease i'm the Dominion.

Some days ago the telegraph made
reference to the general prevalence of
the horse disease in Toronto, the mat
ter becoming so serious as to impede
travel and transportation, and involve
considerable loss. 1t appears that the
same epidemic prevails in Montreal and
its vicinity, and is rapidly on the in
crease. A Toronto paper gives some
of the symptoms of the disease and the
proper mode of treatment, which, in
view of its possible spread, may be use
full:
The disease appears to be a catarr-
hal fever, of an epizootic nature, the
result of some atmo pheric influence,
as is shown by its sudden appearance
over large extent of country, attack
ing all kinds of horses, old and young,
in good condition or poor. The pre-
monitory symptoms are dullness, a
staring coat, watery discharge from
the nose speedily followed by a severe
hacking cough I; the pulse is quickened
and the mouth hot, the nasal men,
.branes are injected and the ears and
legs are unnaturally cold, the discharge
from the nose increases and becomes
OF greenish yellow color, the breath
ing is increased, and in some
cases labored and severe. AL
though this disease must necessarily
prove a great loss and annoyance
to the community generally, we do not
think it is likely to be of a fatal char
acter where ordinary care and rational
treatment are adopted. In several in
stances the attack has been severe, but
generally increased by overwork or
some other facilitating influence. AS
the disease will run a certain course,
affected animals should be carefully
used. and allowed plenty of pure air,
with liberal diet of nourishing and
easily digested food. The stables
should be well aired daily and thor
oughly ventilated; and it is also adj
visable to use disinfectants, as the
chloride of lime or carbolic acid.
When the throat is very sore, causing a
a difficulty in swallowing, mild en-
brocatlon should be applied, and the
fever allayed by mild febrifuge medi-
cine"

The Increase Of Population in Europe.

DR., E. Decasne, in noted commu-
nication to the Paris Academy of Sci
ence shows that from the triple point
of view of the fecundity of marriages,
of the absolute number of births over
deaths, France occupies the lower place
of all the European States. In Prussia
100 marriages give AGO children; in
France the same nnmber of marriages
give only 800. In Prussia the number
of births for each 100 of the popula-
ton, generally, is 3.9S per annum in
France there are only 2.25. In Prussia
the excess of births over deaths in
each million Of the population is 49,
900 per annum, while in France it only
amounts to 2,400. eff we may adj
NIT" says DIR. Decasne, "as concln-
sion from the above figures that the
doubling of the population of France,
despoiled of two of its finest provinces,
and by unheard-of disasters, will re
quire 10 years to be effected, while
that of Prussia will require only AZ
years, Great Britain 80, and Russia 66,
some estimate may be made of the
amount of evil that has befallen this
counury.'

The Wealth of Alaska,

A correspondent gives some idea of
Alaska's wealth as fellows: "Then, in

and herring present their claims, with a
score of others. The Goldfish of the
Shmmagin Islands is superior to the
Eastern article, and the supply it unlimit-
