The Chicago Inter Ocean publishes
a table of lake disasters, which shows
that the casualties occurring upon the
lakes during the navigation of 1874,
number l 1,1S7 save a few of no import
ance not included. The estimates of
vessel property valuation are from
trustworthy sources, with but few ex-
ceptiOns, and are not far from being
strictly correct, though not based ON
underwriters figures. AS will be seen
the estimate of the losses and damages
of vessel cargoes amounts to $500, 500,
appended to which is the exclusive
loss of lumber and timber, while be-
ing transferred through the process of
rafting, amounting to 81, 100000 at a
rough estimate, thus swelling the
grand total to $3,6S6,6OO. The loss
and damages to vessel property figures

A curiosity in the possession of N.
S. Mepham, of this city, says the st.
Louis Republican, is deserving Of
more than passing notice. The article
in question is specimen of the kind
of safe used twelve hundred years ago.
For centuries it laid in monastery,
and when feudalism became thing of
the past it came into the, hands OF
German baronical family. who handed
it down from father to son, until it
found its way to the New World and
the heart of the Mississippi valley. A
safe, but not the cumbrous, heavy,
thick walled articles now used, only
circular iron box, made of iron strips
welded together, about a foot long,
and perhaps a half-foot in diameter.
looking, altogether something like a
cove-oyster barrel. The great curios-
ily about it is the lock, which is mas
terpiece in its way, and is burglar
proof, as it was found few days ago,
when the key being mislaid, it defied
all attempts to PICK. 1t, even from e4-
pert safe-makers. Four springs are
connected with the lock, and although
the box may be taken apart, it can only
be put together with each screw in
the place assigned for it. IL is sup
posed to have been hung up in mon
astery, and to have been in its day
sort of poor-box, slit in the top show
ing where the coins should be put in.
1t was placed in Mr.. Mepham's hands
by Mrs. HUFF, in whose family the box
has been for over 200 years. A Latin
inscription on top gives probably a
clue to its origin. but it could not be
deciphered by the reporter, except the
words GA. d. 722." Es

AN EYE FIGHT ON THE CARS.

A clergyman writes: "Did you ever
have an eye fght-have some person
look at you persistently, catching
your eye every time you looked to-
ward MIN? Did you ever get annoy
ed and fix your eyes on him, and
struggle and wrestle with him, and
finally throw him? l have many

with beautiful young lady who was
in my charge. A man sitting near
fixed his wicked, greedy eyes, on her,
and she was greatly annoyed. 1 got
in good range, fought that mans eyes
all the way from Cleveland to Buffalo.
His eyes both needed what no minis
ter, what no geod Christian could
give them, and. If any wicked man
had come into that car, and had given
him pair of black eyes. should
have thanked the Lord"

A BETTING MOURNER.

A lake steamer was being repaired
and repainted near the wharves of a
Western city. a single narrow plank
served for communication with the
shore. A large quantity of white lead
was provided for the painters, and
one night. before going ashore, two OF
them, whom we shall call Smith and
Jones, thought they would appropri-
ate some Oft to their own use. SO
they tied a strong twine around their
overalls at the ankle, and filed in the
space between their trowscrs and
oyeralls with forty pounds. more or
less, of white lead. Going ashore in
the dusk of the evening, and walking
clumsily in consequence of the unusu-
al heavy loading, Jones stumbled
overheard into the lake. OF course
he sank like milestone. The alarm
was given, and Immediately there
were boats got out, and every prepar-
alton made for the rescue.-Meantime
Smith stood on shore, loudly bewail-
ing.
"Oh, dear. dear! Jones is drowned !!
His poor wife and five little ones
what will become of them? And Jones
is dead! o, dear, dear!"
"What are you blubbering about ~
said bystander. "Don't you see
they are getting ready to haul him
out! He's got to rise three times, you
know" i...
"What-what's that you say?" said
Smith.
81 tell you that Jones aid't drowned
he'll be rescued. He's got to come
up three times"
"Got to come up three times!" re
peated Smith, pulling out his money
and changing his whining tone to one
of excited interest. "Bet you tn,
stamps he don't come up once!"

FASHION.

The absurdities of fashion are not
new except in in one particular: They
are almost completely confined to the
ladies. With the present dress of the
gentlemen little fault can be found;
but with that of the ladiesl Well, let
us be merciful in judgment; if our fair
sisters delight in waists of eighteen
inches in circumference; in trains of
unknown length which convey with
them all manner of street refuge-let
them enjoy perfect liberty Of action
far be it from us to tyranize! Folly
was not born with the present century.
One is very apt to rail against the alb
surdities of present fashion, and as
each new mode appears, to VOW that
taste is on the wane, and Paris the
Temple of the Graces no longer. Yet
a glance at the costumes of the past
will show us that extravagance is no
novelty contemporaries of Alcibisdes
dressed their heads in the most lntrl-
cate manner, rouged their cheeks, and
wore precious stones On their sandals.
The shoes with points chained to the
knees and the lofty sugar-loafed head
dress of the middle ages, were facts as
monstrous as Queen Elizabeth's ruiz
and iron-bound corset, or the figura-
tive couture of Marie Antoinette, with
the gallant ship of the town of Paris
in full sail upon the summit. Nor
where the fashions of the first half of
this century devoid of exaggeration;
look at our grandmother's bonnet,
with wide-spreading brim aud feath-
ers waving on endl Our chapeaas are
of strange shapes, high in the CROWN
and of many colors mixed together
but there is unity about them-they
adorn the head instead of turning it
into a scarecrow. Even when we bor-
row from the past we do not borrow
crudely, but with discretion, mould
ing old fashions to new forms. So
fashion improves as she advances.

WHAT is gratitude? Gratitude is
the memory of the heart.
What is hope? Hope is the blossom
of happiness. .-
What is the difference between hope
and desire? Desire is tree in leaf; !;
hope is tree in flowers, and enjoy
ment is tree in fruit.
What is eternity? A day without
any yesterday or tomorrow; a day
without an end.
What is time? A line that has two
ends, path that begins in the cradle
and ends in the grave.
What is God? A necessary being
the sun of eternity--the machinist of
nature-the eye of justice-the soul of
the world.
Does God reason? Man reasons
because he doubts. he deliberates, he
desires God is omnipotent; he never
doubts; therefore, He never reasons.
