EUREKA Sentinel. There were sit

ried men, with one exception, and he
had been there, but, as he remarked,
had planted the old woman some time
previous. They were discussing the
merits OF their wives, when this old
fellow contributed the following as his
tribute to the worth of the departed :
"She was O remarkable woman-one

Ascent Of Mount Vesuvius.

Not only il the cone very steep. but it is
covered with ashes, SO that one has no firm
hold for his feet. but sinks deep at every
step. Thus he makes slow progress. and Is
soon ont of breath. He can only keep on
by going very slowly. l had to stop every
few minutes. and throw myself down in
the ashes 10 rest. But with these little de-
lays. / kept steadily mounting higher and
higher. As we neared the top, the presence
of the volcano became manifest, not merely
from the cloud. which always hangs about
II. but by smoke issuing from many places
at the side. II seemed as if the mountain
we're q vast. smolde-ing heap. out of which
the internal heat forced its way through
every aperture. Here and there n long
line Of smoke seemed TO indicate a subter-
ranean assure or vein. through which the
pent-up fires forced their way. As we
crossed thc3e lines Of smoke the ~sulphurous
fumes were sitting. especially when the
wind blew them in our facc1. b. Mt last
all difficulties were conquered. and we stood
on the very top. and looked over the awful
verge into the crater. Those who nave
never seen a volcano are apt to picture it as
Il tall p ak. a slender cone like a sugar-loaf.
with a round aperture at the top. like the
chimney of a b~last-furnaca out of which
issues fire and smoke. Something of this
indeed there is. but the actual scene is
vastly greater and grander. For. instead
Of n small. round opening, like the throat
Of u chimney. large enough for one flaming
column, the crater is. I should think, nearly
4 mile across, and half a mile deep and
one looks down into n yawning gulf. n vast
chnsm in the mountain. whose rocky sides
are yellow with sulphur. and out of which
thes smoke issues from different places. At
times 1t Is impossible to see anything. rs
dense volumes Of smoke roll upward. when
the wind drives toward us, so that we are
ourselves lost in the cloud. Then they
drift away, and for an instant We can see
far down into the bowels OF the earth. The
point where we stood projected over the
crater. The great eruption three years
since had tore away half the cone Of the
mountain, and now there hung above 1t q
ledge, which seemed ready ut any moment
to break and fall into the gulf below. AsI
stood on that "perilous edge" on the
crumbling verge Of a volcano, / seemed to

The Australian prouth Ended.

A letter from Sidney, N 8. W., Feb
ruary rs, reports that the drouth, which
had prevailed In Australia with more or
less severity for the last three years. had
terminated. The rains haye been very
general all over the country, putting an
end to the further destruction Of stock,
and much more buoyant feeling pre-
walls in commercial circles. The extent
OF the damage by the drouth it is impos.
sible to estimate, but the government
statistics tor the year 1876, which were
obtained from the farmers with great diff,
flculty. show that in that year there was
a loss of more than 100000 head of cat,
tie and OF more than 100000 sheep.
This represents capital loss of about
$4,000, 600. The losses In 1877, though
not yet brought to account, are shown
to be very much heavier, and it is
expected that they will be twice or three
times as heavy.
