ports Thus, while the trade OF this
country with England required ton
mage Of 1851, 1853 tons, the vessels
sailing under the American flag show

forrtI. place among foreign entries.
Littlt Norway looms up to 2,3I I,O66
tons, showing and increase OF lie, 7o4
tons during the year; imperial Ger
many is but little ahead OF Norway,
the returns accrediting 2,555, OO8 tons
to the former flag. Sweden, though
only approaching the tonnage of the
United States and France, has III
creased 227, 551 tons. The Scandina-
Wan nations are thus 1naintalnirg.thelr

It is remarkable that such countries

Snake Poison,

Caibolic acid is said TO be a deadly
poison to snakes, few drops being sur-
flcicnt to cause the almost instant death
of the much dreaded cobra. All you
have to do is to approach that COBRA in
n seductive sort Of way and introduce a
few drops into his mouth, which he is
apt to have conveniently open when
there is anybody about. This discovery
will be received with great joy in that
pleasant land whore the playful reptile
most hourisheth.

grace of God and the peace that passoth
all understanding, ETC., etc" lie was in
