Decline of the WORLDS Shipping.

A tabular statement published showing
the number of vessels In each principal
country in the world at the close of the
year of 1870 and also at the close Of 1874
shows a decrease of 5, 629 vessels during
that time, and about 100000 tons, the
falling off being most marked in Great
Britain, which lost, during the period
under review, 2,627 vessels, while the
American exhibit shows falling off of
only 156. The decrease in the British
feet may be ascribed chiefly to the
severity of the Writers for several years
past, and the consequent loss of a great
number Of vessels. These have been in
part, but not fully, replaced, owing to
the dullness of the carrying trade for a
year or more. American shipping has
also suffered largely from rough weather
also suffered largely from rough weather
for several years past, and to a greater
extent than usual, but the loss has been
almost entirely replaced. Besides, in
considering the American figures, it
should be remembered that only the
sseagoing" vessels are in the list, while
if " coastwise' were counted, the num-
Der would be greatly increased, and that,
too, by vessels which In many cases are
as seaworthy as the +" seagoing" craft OF
the Mediterranean. When we consider the
immense coast line of the United States
larger than that of any other country in
the world this fact, as an element of
comparison, is of the first Importance.
In regard to tonnage, the United
States has gained little the percentage
in 1874 was 1902 of the whole, against
400 in 1870 Great Britain last year
possessed 37.08 per cent, while in 1870
she had 1859 per cent. The total, it
will be seen, shows falling off of l.

GOLD IN ILLINOIS.

The AJIriferous Metal Found in Clutches
and Streams Near Decatur in Paying
Quantities.
A telegram from Decatur, ILL.,, to the
Chicago Journal says: A party of old
miners yesterday visited the recently
discovered gold fields near this city, and
after prospecting in different places
s.long the stream, pan of dirt was taken
out OF Dutch gulch, washed, and found
to contain from twenty to thirty cents
worth of shining yellow metal. Some of
the party not feeling satisfied, and fear
ing that trick of some sort had been
perpetrated, procured another pan
Of dirt, this time taking it off the
top, which was washed and found to cou-
tain from three to four cents worm
This last pan was pronounced by Captain
Mason and Mr.. Grow, who have followed
mining in California, as being rich
enough in gold to pay well for mining,
either on large or small scale.
The latest report to-day is that gold
has been found on the land belonging to
DR.. L. N. Bills, adjoining that Of Mr..
Kepler A specimen, found here was
brought to the city to-day, and we learn
that it stood the test applied to it. Fur
ther developments viii be awaited with
great interest. Mr.. Kepler has refused
$4,000 per acre for his eighty acres Of
/ land.

MIRACULOUS ESCAPE.
A Man Topples Over the River Bank
Niagara FaIls-Being Drunk, he Escapes
with a Few Bruises.

A Man Topples Over the River Bank
Niagara Falls-Being Drunk, he Escapes
with a Few Bruises.
The Buffalo Express says "Wed-
nesday evening Frenchman named Al
bert Abattoy fell over the bank of the
river at Niagara Falls, distance Of 140
feet, and, strange to say, escaped with
but few slight bruises. The acct
dent occurred on the Canada side of the
river, about 200 feet north of the new
bridge Abattoy, who halls from Kings
ton, Canada, was intoxicated at the time.
He staggered over the bank, falling
clear distance of so feet, on to the rock
below, and then rolling down 60 feet
more toward the edge of the water.
Thomas Conroy, the noted guide, ac-
companied by three or four others, as
soon as they learned of the accident,
rowed over from Prospect Park, expect
ing to find the unfortunate man
mangled mass of flesh and bones. Judge
Of their astonishment when, after short
search, they discovered him wedged in
| between some rocks, swearing as lively
as any man in his position could,
and suffering no perceptible inju-
TIES SAcepGluB II lew SllSub DTulS6Ss
Abattoy was placed in the boat
and rowed over to the landing, where
every preparation had been made for the
appropriate reception of corpse. The
Frenchman, however, was not at all de-
sirous Of awaiting himself of the priv
ileges, and on reaching the shore coolly
informed the crowd that there wasn't
id bone broken" Neither was the
empty whisky bottle which he had in his
pocket. The fall was a terrible one, and
| it is Lothing short Of miraculous that the
man was not killed instantly. At the
same point where he fell over, a German
musician met With similar accident,
two years ago, and was instantly killed.
It was no doubt the quantity of whisky
he had imbibed saved him. Had he
been sober, there is scarcely prcba-
bility but that every spark of his life
would have been crushed out of him by
the terrible shock his system received.
Abattoy was staggering round on the
Canada side of the Falls yesterday, as
unconcerned as though nothing had
happened. Persons intending to visit
the Falls should make a note of his case
and get dead drunk, so as to be fully
provided for in case they should fall
over the bank.

A BRIEF telegram from London, a few
days ago, announced the death OF Lady
Jane Griffin Franklin, the venerable wild
ow of Sir John Franklin, the great Eng
lish navigator. The devotion of this
noble woman to the memory Of her hus-
band has made her famous wherever the
story of her heroic efforts to learn It'd
ings of him in the far north is known.
She was born in 1902, and was the sec
ond wife of Sir John, their marriage hay
ing occurred in 1923. She went with
her husband to Van Diemen's Land in
1886. The Erebus and Terror sailed IN
1845, and no tidings of them having
been gained, in 1850 Lady Franklin sent
out ship at her own expense on q voy-
age of discovery, and again in 1857 sent
out the steamer Fox, under Captain
MoClintock, who, in the summer Of 1859,
discovered on the shore of King VIII
iam's Land record deposited by her
husbands company in 1913. This docu-
ment stated that Sir John died June IL,
1847, and that the ships were abandoned
April %, 1s48. Still Lady Franklin was
not satisfied, and always chung to the
belief either that her husband was alive
OF that some of the party, or further
news of them might be found. The
Pandora, the last ship fitted out by
Lady Franklin, left England for the
Arctic regions only few weeks ago.

the south. BY 1910, its westward way
had been DETECTED little more toward
the south. In 1920, it had shifted a
great distance to the west. In 1880, it
was nearly in the longitude Of Pittsburg,
and at the most southern point it has
ever touched. Since then, it has gradu-
ally tended to the northwest. Itcrossed
Mason and Dixons line between 1850
and 1860. In 1870, it was in Ohio,
about south OF Columbus and east of Gin

farther west than in 1890. It will be

The world, studied the physiology and

Of its parasitic foes, and then predicted
