The newest earrings are made of
bone. They are cut in the form of
many pointed stars tipped with differ

lobe OF the ear, and a larger one hangs
underneath They are very odd and
very pretty. The first made were ex-

Tie Great STERN Of August. 1873.

The great storm which swept over
portion OF the Gulf of St. Lawrence
and the Atlantic shores of Nova Scotia,
Cape Breton and Newfoundland on the
24th and 18th of August last, destroy
ed a grand total of 1922 vessels. OF
these 49, were small fishing schooners,
but in the list all sorts of vessels are
enumerated. Two hundred and TWEEN
ty-three lives are definitely reported as
lost, and the most moderate estimate
of the numerous cases III which whole
crews are stated to have been lost,
sWellS this number to nearly five hun
dred. If to this be added the loss of
life on land and in the earlier move
ments of the cyclone, the grand total
amounts at least to six hundred lives.
The records also show that about nine
hundred buildings were injured or to-
tally destroyed. Some Of the marine
towns of New England suffered terri
bly, by this disaster. Boats were lost,
lives sacrificed, and ,apital sunk to
most disastrous extent.

The Fastest Speed on English Rail.
WAYS.

The following gives the mean average
of speed attained on nine of the princi-
pal railway lines having termini in Lon
don Great Western, 81 miles per hour !;
London, Brighton and South Coast, 45i
miles; Great Northern, 45s miles Lon
don, Chatham and Dover, AL miles !;
Southeastern, 43, miles Northwestern,
AZ. miles Midland, All miles; South
western, 40f miles Great Eastern, 37i
miles general average on the nine roads,
49, miles per hour. These averages, ar
rived at by taking the speed on different
parts of each company's line, are not
applicable to certain portions of the
lines where express trains are numerous
and usually run faster For example,
on the Great Northern line, between
London and Peterboro'. nearly all the
trains run from Paddington to Swindon,
distance of ia miles, in one hour and
~ mines, or Mt the rate of 53. miles per
hour. This is probably the fastest run
ming time INDUCED in anywhere in the
kingdom. Such speed, barring stop
pages, would bring Edinburgh within
u hours of London, instead of the
present 81 hours, which, when first in
troduced, was looked upon as marvel
Gus travelling. The Southern Company
make a short run of 26t miles, from
Turnbridge TO Ashton, in 81 minutes, q
rate of 5lf miles per hour, and the
Great Northern runs from Tendon to
Peterboro', 763 miles, in an hour and n
half, or at the rate of 81 miles an hour
The average of the fastest speed at
tanned on the nine lines above mentioned
is 47f miles per hour The Exeter and
West of England express of the Great
Western Company runs the entire dis
lance between London and Exeter, 1914
miles, in 4, hours, including three stop
pages, or about 46 miles an hour. The
Scotch express of the Great Western
Company performs the Journey between
London and Edinburgh, a distance of
400 miles, in 8! hours, including six
stoppages of some duration, an average
of ~ miles an hour. The London and
Northwestern Company's "limited mail"
also travels from London to Glasgow, a
distance of 434 miles, in II hours and
- minutes, an average of 80 miles an
hour. The examples of runs of 80 miles
and upward without stopping are nu-
merous. The Continental trains of the
London, Chatham and Dover line run
from Herne Hill to Dover, "a miles,
without stopping, and the Southeastern
between Cannon street and Dover, 75}
miles. The Great Western trains run
from Paddington to Swinton, TIA miles,
without stopping, and the Great North
ern from London to Peterboro', and
from Grantham to York, 76, and 81;
miles respectively, while the London and
Northwestern Companys Irish mails run
from Chester to Holy head, a distance of
So! miles, occupying hours and min
utes, without stopping. The latter is
the longest run without stoppages re-
corded.

Gas i'm Paris.

The cost of lighting Paris makes
startling exhibit for small cities. The
gas-works at La Villette consume 720
tons of coal day during the winter and
$50 tons throughout the summer months,
and the price paid for coal by the COM
pany during the past year has been close
upon 81, 500, 900. The consumption of
gas has increased from 10000. 600 OF
cubic meters in 1855 and 116, 900, 600 in
1865, to close upon $50, 000,0 600 in 1872,
and the total length of the pipes laid
down is rather more than ], ZOO English
miles. The Gas Company pay the
municipality a sum of $40, 900 for the
right of laying on the gas, and it is fur
ther obliged to bear the cost of repairs
whenever the pipes are to be replaced,
to say nothing of tax of 2 centimes
upon every cubic meter of gas con-
sumed. From this latter source, the
city OF Paris derived more than $500, 900
during the last year, while, by the terms
OF another agreement giving it fixed
share in the profits, its revenues from
the Gas Company amounted to a total
nearly three time, as large. There are
$50 lamp-lighters for the whole of Paris,
who, so excellent is their organization,
perform their lighting functions in forty
minutes, while it takes them even less
time to extinguish the lamps. AS the
distance of ground covered is little short
of $50 miles, each man has to get over
about 5000 yards in forty minutes.

Terrible Statistics.

ACape Cod paper gives some statistics
of the loss of life and vessels by fisher
men from Gloucester, Mass, during the
past forty-two and half years. II
says: "There have been lost from
Gloucester, since 1880, 1,251 lives and
2S1 vessels-valued at nearly 81, 800 600
in the fishing and coasting business,
averaging upward of 20 lives and ves-
sells yearly. The value of the vessels
lost is 81 ,4S3, 222; their insurance $685.
1876, mostly in the local offices. Ninety
two of those vessels were lost III the
Georges fishery, little over one-third
of the whole number 56 in the Bay of
st. Lawrence mackerel fishery, 20 in the
shore mackerel fishery, 20 in the shore
cod fishery, % in the Grand and West
ern Bank fishery, Is in the Newfound-
land herring fishery, 2 in the Grand
Menan herring fishery, III the Green
land halibut fishery, 33 in the coasting
trade, burnt by the rebel pirate
Tacony, and pilot boat lost in Glouces-
ter harbor. AS there is no record of the
widows and orphans previous to 1858,
it is impossible to get at the correct
number, but it is probable they would
average about the same proportions as
those of the last IA years-the number
of married men being about one-third of
the whole number lost, and averaging
two children TO a man. This would
give, in round numbers, 400 widows and
500 fatherless children left destitute 10y
the disasters of the past AZ years, an
average of 10 widows and 20 children
yearly, which is not large estimate.

Fault.Finders.

The world is full of chronic fault
finders. Nothing can please them
They take delight in growing and
grumbling over everything they meet
If anything is good, they complain be-
cause it is not better. Humanity has
no bright side to these grumblers. 1t
looks black, dreary, hopeless to them
from whatever point of view they exam
inc it. They overlook the virtues of an
individual, and hold up single fault to
judge his character from. They denounce
party as corrupt because few rascals
disgrace themselves by unworthy acts.
The church is false because few hypo-
critics find shelter within it. The world
is on the high road to destruction, and
everything indicates the depravity of
man. We do not envy the happiness of
these GROWERS. Their unhappy frame
of mind is about the only pleasure
they enjoy. 1t may sound paradoxical,
but the social misery they create is to
them source of enjoyment. A single
hopeful heart is worth regiment of
these fault-finders. Humanity has its
bright side-beautiful and attractive
TO those who seek it. The world is
alive with public and private virtue, and
we should be ready at all times to foster
and encourage this element Of social
comfort and public happiness.
