Rapid Travelling.

An examination of the nine great rail
 ways which terminate in London shows
 that the average rate of speed at which
 the quickest expresses travel is forty
 seven and three-quarter miles an hour.
 Two lines only excel this. The ten
 o'clock Northern train from London to Peterborough runs the distance of sev- enty-six miles and quarter at the rate of ffty-one miles an hour. But the broad-gauge west of England trains on the Great Western beat even the Great Northern. A train makes the run from Paddington to Swindon, seventy-seven and quarter miles, without stopping, in three minutes less than an hour and half this is uniform pace of fifty three and quarter miles an hour The Great Northern falls off it's pace after it passes Peterborough, and travels from Granthen to York at under forty-fve miles an hour. The Great Western falls off little from Swindon to Bath. But the journey from London to Bath by the Il :45 train is the quickest in the world. The distance is one hundred and six and three-quarter miles. It is timed for two hours and thirteen min utes, including ten minutes at Swindon. The running time is, therefore, some thing over ffty-two miles an hour. The fastest time anywhere on the Great Eastern is forty-one miles an hour. The London Daily Nea0s gives many other figures comparing the speed of different roads, instancing some trains that run as slow as thirty three and half miles an hour. The Great Eastern is the slow est, and the Great Western the quickest of the railways. .----.--.- 1-- l II I-

Statistics of Population.

The Memorial Diplonaatique gives the following interesting account of the density of population in the great cen -ters of humanity throughout the globe. There are nine cities having a popu- lation exceeding one million souls, viz London, 3, ,251, GOO; Soochow, 2, 1000, 900; Paris, 1,825, 900; Pekin, ], ,648, ,OOO; Yed- do, 1,554, ,O00; Canton, 1,236, ,0OO; Con stantinople, 1,075,OO Siang-tan, in the province of Human, LOGO, ,OOO; and Tchan- n-tchaon-foo, in the province of Fokien, 1000, 900. It will be seen that although London holds the first place, the Chinese empire can still boast of possessing more populous cities than all the civilized States of the West. The number of cities possessing pop ulation ranging from above half 8 mil lion up to million is twelve, viz New York, Vienna, Berlin, Hang -kaow, Phil adelphia, St. Petersburg, Bombay, Cal cutta, Fow-chow, Tchehing, Bangkok. and Kioto. Twenty cities have a popu- lation of from 300, GOO to 400, 900 inhabi- tants, thirty three of from 200, GOO to 300, ,00O, and ninety of from 100, 900 to 200, 900 inhabitants. Europe alone pos sesses one hundred and seventy-one cities containing more than fifty thou sand inhabitants, at the head of which stand London, Paris, Constantinople. Vienna, Berlin and St. Petersburg.

The Mormon Bible.

T. l find in my scrap-beok,e set down
 there thirty years ago, an item which
 may be of interest at the present time,
 when the Mormon problem is evidently
 approaching civilized solution. The
 truth of the statement herein given was
 vouched for in my presence by a man
 who was above deceit. The origin of
 the " Book of Mormon" so called, has
 been a puzzle to many, much of it being
 evidently the production of a cultivated mind, and yet springing to light from
 the hands of illiterate men. 1iea' ya E. It was written, in 1912-13, as a liter
 aly recreation, by Rev. Solomon Spaul- ding, a graduate of Dartmouth College,
 at that time residing in New Salem,
 Ohio; and, as he wrote it, 1t professed to be a historical romance of a lost race, the remains of whose numerous mounds and inscriptions are found on the banks of the Ohio. if After the work had been completed the author had thoughts of having it printed, and for that purpose he gave the manuscript into the hands of printer, ill whose office 1t remained for several years. but the design of printing was not carried into execution. As foreman in the printing office where IHIs OpdtllU1uS IOIuHuC0 WdS 4OuSeQ was employed Sidney Rigdon,p who af- terward figured conspicuously, in Nor mon history and there is no doubt that he copied the manuscript and subse- quently gave it to Smith. Upon the appearance of the Book of Mormon, in 1880, there were those living to whom MT. -Spaulding had read parts of his TO-, nance, and they recognized his. yerbi- age in the book. Upon search the orig 1nal manuscript was found among the papers of the deceased clergyman, and on comparison the Mormon Bible. proved to have been not materially al- tered from this parent text Of course the discovery soon made considerable talk. A great many people went to see the manuscript, and at the expiration of a few weeksitmysteriously disappeared. As there was a Mormon preacher in New Salem at the time, with proselytes athis heels, the mystery of the disappearance was not very deep. ...-,1-....s...

An Atlantic Cable.,

The new Atlantic cable differs some what from any of those hitherto laid,
 either to America or elsewhere. There are seven No. IS gauge copper wires,
 twisted in a spiral, and weighing 300 pounds per nautical mile, and these are covered with four coats of gutta percha, with thin layers of Chatterton's com pound, this amounting to 400 pounds per knot. The diameter of each wire is O, O48 inch ; of the stand, O, 146 inch, and of the wire and gutta percha and compound, %, 464 inch. This Gore is served with hemp, and the hemp is again protected by ten wires drawn from homogeneous iron, each wire being swathed in five yarns of Manila hemp laid on splrally, with tarry compound to preserve it. So far the cable. is rot dissimilar to those of 1865 and 1866,
 and is almost identical with that of the French cable of 1868; but it is sensib1y larger, and the difference is owing to two servings of jute yarn wound on in contrary directions, and covered with two coats of Latimer Clark's preserya- tive compound. The cable weighs nearly two cwt. per knot more. than the previous cables; but it is even stronger in proportion, and is calculated to last twice as long under the same conditions. The cable is coiled down under water in the same tanks which have thrice done duty across the Atlantic, and there is now 8 fourth, tank constructed. quite close to the stern, capable of taking another 800 miles of cable. But if this was filed the Great Eastern would not be able to get over the Sheerness bar. As it is, she will be down te her line as soon as her ooals are got on, board. Right well does she look; lift at aweek's notice for any service as trim and as neat asa man-of-war. 2 Thoseswh have, known her since the trip in which she blew up her second funnel, fourteen years ago, can see no deterioration in her appearance, and when the new dock at Milford Haven is ready to take her in, that she may get scrubbed down and have the tons of mussels, taken of her bottom, she will be as good as new ii in every respect. -r. ,., ,.,,, f,F,,,.ts -..

1 Tn the wreck of. the NorthAeet. C one navvy who was saved was heard by the correspondent of the London Syamdard saying:1 ''When I saw what was up, I said, ses I, I'm agoin' to die, and may as well do it as comfortable as I can,' and so I lit my pipe" There was no high feeling in that man, but there was an infinite capacity for discipline. Fear did not over power him in any degree He thought smoke even in the face of death still an object worth desiring.

 in the left wrist from alswire,' and since
 that timehas been growing continually worse, q notwithstanding medical aid, until the entire left side, had become
 cold and inanimate as in death, while the opposite side of the body is at fever heat. His friends are very much alarmed for fear that the accident, if not of a fatal nature, will at least cause the paralysis of the affected side.

ELEoTIoNEERNa.-The Gardiner Re- porter tells little story of town elec- tion "at the head of navigation" "' A man who wished to be elected treasurer promised to treat the crowd on cider. Then he went to the Yankee who wa
 retailing the beverage and undertook to buy up the stock so as to control the business, but was told he could have it for five cents per glass, without any discount to the trade" His treat thus cost him more than he intended, but he was elected. His next move was to send a letter to the Yankee threatening to enter complaint against him for selling cider unless he came and settled up for the advantage he took of him on cleo tion day! .' l'' s,~'7'7' 1''
