In an essay presented by Prof. VIM.
A. Rogers, at the Portland meeting oil
the American Association, it was shown
by statistics that there had been for many
years continual and large increase in
the proportion of shipwrecks among
British vessels. Mr.. Rogers attributed
this increase of danger and accident to
the confidence of captains in reckoning BY
instruments, and depending too much
upon their chrOnometers. The ratio OF er.
rors in chronometers was shown to be such
that a navigator should expect from this
source an error of more than three and
half miles, must be on the lookout for one
of eleven and half miles, aud need not
be surprised at one of twenty.Cne miles.
This is supposing he trusts to an average
chronometer A good navigator, says
the Tribune, told Prof. Benjamin Pierce
during a voyage, that he did not trust
his position within sixty miles. The Pro-
fessor himself, while superintendent OF
the Coast Survey, declared as his own
conviction, that captain who neglected
to take soundipgs when within thirty
miles of coast, "if he had any passen-
gers on his vessel, ought to be hung"

Beautiful Rain.


OH beautiful randrops, the time seemeth long
Since last felt the lull of your magical song;
The cold winds have played with the "beautiful
snow"
Round the head of the homeless with "nowherc
to go;"
And the heart has grown weary with sorrow and
Come, beautiful raindrops, aud gladden. our life.
All nature is calling thee-beautiful rain
The violet waits with its low, sweet refrain
OF fragrance, to join in the welcoming song
That shall wake at thy coming these valleys
along;
And the hill-tops shall wave their bright banners
again,
And rejoice at thy coming-warm, beautiful rain.
The ce-king has yielded his sceptre, and gone
The waters are singing low, parting tune
But twill swell to an anthem inspiring and grand,
When the beautiful rain cometh down on the land ;
So our thoughts shall uprise in q purpose more
grand,
When the beautiful rain cometh down on tho land.
All! beautiful raindropsl no longer we brook
In sorrow thy stay from our dear, quiet nook;
list, and thy droppings fall light on the pane;
The winds are all hushed tc lullaby strain
Dear Father, we pray that thy love-light INA y
fall
Like the beautiful rain, giving blessings to all.

ANN Brigham Young refuses
to come down with that $500 month
alimony, whereupon Ann Eliza asks the
court to apply the Judicial thumb-screws.
The court declines. Briefly the judge
tells Ann Eliza she has not as yet pro-
duced any proof either that she is Brig
hams Lawful! wife, or that she ignorantly
entered into unlawful relation with him,
supposing, at the time, that she was a
party to legal marriage. If she eou-
tracted polygamous and void marriage
with her eyes open, the fact that she Is
now sick of it is not sufficient reason for
giving her money to which she is not en-
titled either in law or morals.
