IMMIGRATION.

On the ID of October the emigration
officers at Liverpool completed their
quarterly report of the exodus from
that port. Compared with other
periods as with the preceding quarter,
the increase is enormous. During the
months of July, August and Septem
ber, ninety-nine ships left Liverpool
for the United States, carrying SO, ,49l
steerage passengers, and nearly 5000
in the cabins. Seventeen ships left
for Canada. carrying 5,607 emigranIs;
one left for Victoria and two for South
America. The aggregate number of
passengers was so, ,3S5-of whom the
greater proportion, Is, ,279, were Eng
lish, and only 5,104 Irish. This most
notable feature of the quarters return
is the sudden access of Swedes, Danes
and Germans to the emigration from
LiverpOol-no less than 10, S53 of the
whole number having been drawn
from the Scandinavian and German
counties, coming by way of Hull TO
Liverpool, and thence to the United
States in preference to shipping from
the Baltic direct by the Bremen and
German Lloyd's steamers. The Liv-
erpoOl returns show that during the
whole quarter the departure of ships
for the United States have averaged
more than one per day; while the
emigrants have flocked westward at
the rate of 1900 per month or la, 900
per year. English artisans and labor
ers are beginning to count largely in
the emigration, and it appears that
they avoid Canada-probably on ac-
count of a well-founded conviction
that English rule, whether colonial or
home, offers fewer inducements to the
industrious and enterprising than the
free and independent life Of repub-
lie.

4 Remarkable Body Of Water.

There is a place in Oregon called
Smoky Valley, where the people have
a very curious way of cooking. They
do not have the JIOubie of making a
fire every morning when they wish
to get breakfast. They just walk out
with their kettles, coffee pots and
whatever else they need, and cook at
the boiling spring. The water seems
a great deal better tn an common boil
ing water, and all they need to do is
to hang their kettles in it for a short
time and their food is nicely cooked.
They are able even to bake in it. The
bread is put into tight saucepan, and
lowered into the boiling flood for an
hour or two, and then drawn up most
exquisitely baked. Meat is cooked
and beans, which are the miners
great luxury. 1t takes but a minute
to cook eggs, or to make a pot of cof-
fee or tea; but if there should chance
TO be "slip 'tWixt the cup and the
lip" the food would be gone beyond
recovery.

WIT AND HUMOR OF THE BIBLb

! From the Independent.
"ShockingT many a good old sain
will cry at the very thought of it
"The Bible a jest book ? What god
less folly shall we have up next?" No
the Bible is not jest book but there
is wit in it of the first quality, and 6
good reason why it should be there
Take a few specimens: Job, in his
30th chapter, is telling how he scorn'
ed the lowlived fellows who pretended
to look down upon him in his adv
stiles. They are fools, they belong to
the long cared fraternity. Anybody
with less wit might come out bluntly
and call them asses. But Job puts ii
more deftly Xxx, y: Among the
bushes they brayed; under the nettles
they were gathered together" If that
is not wit there is no such thing as
wit. And yet the commentators don't
see it or won't see it. They are per-
fectly wooden when they come to any
such gleam of humor. Take another
instsnce-Elijah's ridicule of the
prophets of Baal. They are clamOr-
ing to their god to help them out Of a
very awkward predIcament. And,
while they are at it, the prophet shows
them up in a way that must have
made the people roar with laughter.
The stiff, antiquated style of our Eng
lish Bible tames down his sallies.
Take them in modern phrase. These
quack prophets have worked them
selves into perfect desperation, and
are capering about on the altar as If
they had the st. Vitus dance. The
scene Il Kings xviii. %, 81 wakes up
all Eliiah's sense of the ridiculous
"Shout lOuderI He is a god, you
know. Make him hear! Perhaps he
is chatting with somebody, or he is off
on hunt, or gone travelling. Or may
be he is taking a nap. Shout away
Wake himupW Imagine the priests
going through their antics on the
altar, while Elijah bombards them in
this style at his leisure. If Mr.. Beech
er ever said anything that convulsed
his audience more thoroughly than
the prophet must have done the Jews
around him, 1 should like to hear it.
Paul shows a dry humOr more Than
once, as in I'd Cor, xii, l3: "WhY
you Jared as well as the other
All! there is one griev- !
ance-that you haven't had me to |
support. Pray do not lay it up against
mel" These instances might be null
tiplied from the Old and New Testa-
ment both. What do they show
THAI the Bible is, on the whole,
humorous book ? Far from it. That
is a humorous subject-that
we are to throw all the wit we can |
into the treatment of it? No. But
they show that the sense of the ludi- |
crous IS put into man by his Maker;
that it has its uses and that we are
not to be ashamed of it, or to roll up
1ur eyes in holy horror Of it.

six stories high standing. 1t looked
as if gust of wind would send it
across my path. On the water front
there was one fierce bonfire yet burn

Flremen were playing on it, causing
immense volumes of smoke. / no.

currents of cold air towards the
burning pile, and ever and anon a

smoke would play like a mOekeTy Of
sport around the devastion. In the
United States Sub Treasury and Post
Office building the destruction was
confined to the dome of the former
and and the foreign depot in the lat
ter. The mails were transferred to
the Custom House, and business was
partly resumed at grand old FaneuiI
Hall this afternoon.
Such is the history of the fire in
orief up to the present. Tonight
the city is picketed around the burned
district and looks as if in possession Of
an enemy.
From thirty to forty lives nave
been lost in the eonflagration. There
IS something in the indOmitable pluck
of the American which looks this
great disaster in the eyes with a resO-
lutte heart. 1t Hooks now as if Boston,
like the fabled giant of old, who arose
every time he touched
the clay, would lift itself up from the
ruins of the fire with renewed beauty,
faith and energy.

TAKING CASTOR OIL,

Breathes there a man with soul 81
dead that he does not recollect the
castor oilings which his poor machine
used to get at stated periods of his
youth? To castor oil u child of two
to seven years of age requires three
or four strong women, a spoon, a mag
mum bottle of the fluid, a lump Of
sugar, a towel, a jumping jack, and 8

to ring in the medicine on the unsus-
pecting babe, thinly disguised in
milk. This manevre failing, you

to corrupt It's infantile integrity with

tiOn finds vent in corporal chastise-
ment of the rebellious infant. 1t
howls. Peace being restored, you
bring up reinforcements, and strategy
and diplomacy having failed, deter
mine to accept nothing but uncondi-
tional surrender, and prepare to march
at once upon the enemy's works. A
grand combined attack is made. The
left wing firmly holds the child's
hands. The right wing piches the
nose, so as to compel it to open its
mouth, in which the center pOurs
deadly fire from the spoon. Mean
while the reserve holds up lump of
sugar, commisserately saying, Poor
little tOOsy pOOtsy, was it nassy med
icy, eh ?n and keeps the towel ready.
The baby yells and chokes, the young
mother, afraid of killing it, lets go of
its nose, the infant catching breath,
discharges the whole dose upon her,
and ruins all the front breadths of her
black silk, and follows up its advan-
tage with so heart broken a yell that
the attacking party surrenders at dis
cretion, and calls it "poor, injured
mamsie's own toOtsens, and it won't
take any more nassy castor oil, if it
don't want to-"
A treaty of peace is then ratified,
whereby the infant is ceded immu-
nifty from castor oils, and an ample
indemnity in lollipOps, and then the
