Wonders of the American Continent.

The greatest cataract in the world is the Falls of Niagara, where the water from the great upper lakes forms river of th1ee-fourths of mile in width, and then being suddenly contracted, plunges over the rocks in two columns to the depth of 175 feet. The greatest cave in the world is the Mammoth Cave of Ken lucky, where any one can make voyage on the waters of & subterranean river, and catch fish without eyes. The great est river in the known world is the Mis- sissippi, 4,OOO miles long. The largest valley in the world is the valley of the Mississippi. It contains 5000, ,OOO square miles, and is one of the most fertile re- gions of the globe. The greatest city park in the world is in Philadelphia. It contains over 2, 700 acres. The great est grain port in the world is Chicago. The largest lake in the world is Lake Superior, which is truly an inland sea, being APO miles long and 1, 1000 feet deep. The longest railroad at present is the Pacific railroad, over 5000 miles in length. The greatest mass of solid iron in the world is the Pilot Knob of Mis- souri.

The Rock of Gibraltar.

There is only one hindrance to the Spaniurds retaking Gibraltar from Eng land as they now desire to do, and that is that it is impregnable. Three of it's sides are so steep and precipitous as to be wholly inaccessible, and the fourth side, sloping down to the water, is pro- tected by about 1000 pieces of artillery. The Moors were finally expelled from the fortress by the Spaniards ill 1462, and the latter then greatly strengthened it, and supposed they had made it i'm pregnable, but it was captured by few British sailors, under Sir George Rock, in 1704, and the most desperate and most persevering efforts have been un- ava1ling to retake it. In 1713 it was confirmed to Great Britain by the treaty of Utrecht. The Spaniards attacked it with large force in 1727, and in 1779 the assault was renewed by 8 combined French and Spanish fleet. This latter siege lasted three years. By June all communication between the rock and the main land was cut off, and in the fol lowing month the fortress was complete ly blockaded. The besiegers brought to bear all the resources of war, by land and sea, and their operations were directed by the ablest French and Span ish engineers; q powerful fleet anchored in the bay, and for three weeks an iu- cessant bombardment was kept up from eight mortars and 200 pieces of battering cannon. The garrison made sortie on November 27, l7S1, and destroyed the enemy's works, but the allies soon re- constructed them and brought 1,0OC pieces of artillery to play against the fortress, an army of 40,000 men the meanwhile besieging it by land, while forty-seven ships of the line and great number of smaller vessels menaced it by sea. Admiral Rodney having succeeded in throwing relief into the fort by defeat ing the French fleet, the garrison were greatly encouraged, and, by discharging red-hot shot, silenced the enemys enor- nous floating batteries and burned many of their ships. Nine of the batteries were set on fire. About four hundred ot the crews were saved by the exertions o1 the British, but the rest all perished by the flames, explosions or drowning. afterward the besieged were reinforced, but they had only lost sixteen men throughout the attack

How Butler Talks.

Gen. B. F. Butler, of Massachusetts, in his speech in the United States House on the greenback question says: would say to the foreign bondholders, particu- larly in Germany, where most of the bonds are held. "There is your dollar :; take 1t ! If it is less value than it was, it is you yourselves who made it so. If you want to make it more valuable, re- monetize and make it so, as you ought to do." The bullionists and bankers have no objection to making the silver dollar legal-tender to the amount of $50 (which is about the average month's earnings of workingmen). That they regard as honest. Out on such barefaced hypocr1cy The devil himself would blush to use tiff there is devil-and if there is not, there ought to be one to catch such statesmen, who eat up Gods people as if they were bread. Laughter and applause.

MOTHERHOOD

Her lot is on you'-woman's lot she meant, The singer who sang swcetly long ago; And rose and ycw and tender myrtle blent To crown the harp that rang to love and woe Awake, 0 POetcss, and VOW one strain To sing of Motherhood its joys, its pain What does it give to Us, this mother-love- In verse, and tale, and legend glorified, Chosen by lips divine as type above
 All other passions ? Men have lived and died For sisters, maiden queens, and cherished wives, Yet sealed by God, the ono chief love survives. Yet what is it it gives Us ? Shrinking dread, Peril, and pain and agony forgot, Because we hold the ray of gladncss shed, By the first cry from lips that know us not, worth all that has been paid. is yet to pay, For the new worship born and crowned that
 day.
 Then nursing, teaching, training, self-dcnial, That never knows itself so deep it lies, The eager taking up of every trial,
 To smooth Springs pathway, light her April
 skies Watching and!guiding, loving, longing, pray
 Ing,
 No coldness daunting, and no wrong dismay-
 ing.
 And when the lovely bud to blossom wakes, And when the soft shy dawn star flashes
 bright,
 Another hand the perfect flower takes, Another wins the gladness of the light sweet, soft, clinging, fond farewell is given :; Still farewell, and then alone with heaven. With heaven! Will He take the tired heart The God who gave the child and formed the
 mother,
 Who sees her strive to play her destined part, And smiling, yield her darling to another Ay, on His cross He thought of Marys woe; He plties still the mothers loft below.

The English Army.

Major General Sir Garnet Wolseley, of the English army, contributes to the Nineteenth Century an article entitled England as @ Military Power" The following are his conclusions: At no previous period has England been so strong in a military sense as now. Were war declared tomorrow about four hun dred thousand drilled men would fall into line, if required, supported by 372 field guns, manned and horsed by the Royal Artillery.
 That number would roughly be made up as follows: Standing army at home, 99, ,O00 men; army and military reserve, 10000; militia, 5000; volunteers, 100,- 900, and second class army reserve, 10,- 00O Total, 4,O00. In this calcula- tion have put the figures very low, and have lett out altogether the 10000 yeo- marry, who would be available for home service. I have not taken into considera- tion the number of regular troops that would be available for war when the Mediterranean garrisons were furnished by militia.
 It will thus be seen that we could at once take the field with two fully equip ped army corps of more than thirty thou sand soldiers each, leaving similar force of regular troops at home as re- serve. When I compare the military strength of England now with what it was in 1854, am as amazed at the con- ditions of military weakness and help lessness in which we were when we be- gan the Russian war of that year as am at the ignorance of those who are now croaking over our supposed want of strength and alleged consequent inabil itY to fight

FARMER JOHN.

In nice new cottage lived Farmer Johnr With his boys so trim and neat, And his girls just patterned by. mother Jane, Bright and womanly sweet. There was love in the cottage for Farmer John, There was reverend household prayer It was thrifty without and bonny within, Save for one failing there. The ample storehouse of Farmer John Was packed from sleeper to peak His purse had rounded out full and deep, But for single leak. One sorrow was there for Farmer John, -@ His neighbor over the way, Was one who tarried long at the cup,
 And he tarried day by day. Now 1t moved the heart of friendly John, To kind, persuasive word, He pleaded as man may plead with man,
 Till the drunkards soul was stirred. Said neighbor Nat "You're good man, John, Or wouldn't bear your speech; Your scrmon-it has a right, true ring,
 But in turn must preach. "Say you, the bottle that makes me mad, must to my thirst deny The weed that Smlrcne6 yoll hAHoVA"n A"~S' Is never denied, say l. I'll pledge you honor, my good friend John, If you will but pledge me, too; never will drink another dram,.
 If you'll never smoke or chew" It touched the marrow of Christian John, And he dare not now be 10th, He quickly answered, 'Tt shall be done, And may God help us both !" And now he reckoned, good Farmer John, The cost of vice so dear How health and sweetness had dribbled away With the dollars year by year. He wanted more acres-ambitious John For his boys and girls to share But quid and pipe had drivelled and smoked The acres into the air. "We've scotched our tyrants," cried earnest
 John;
 'By the grace of God we'll kinl' Now Neighbor Nat is a sober man,
 And John Is victor still !"
