| flaming mountain must be sublime.
People go all the way from England to
get night-sight of Vesuvius in erup-
ton, from Naples or from the bay.
1t may very likely be the case that
volcanoes in other and less accessible
parts of the world are also now in erup-
tion-Hecla, in Iceland, a modern crea-
ton, being one of the most probable
points, but from that lonely and desc
late island, lying far away and alone,
in its chill seas, behind the cold shoul-
der of the globe, no news is likely to be
received for good while TO come. But
the fact itself of the simultaneous erup-
ton of three great volcanoes in differ
ent regions is sufficiently interesting to
excite attention.
Taken in connection with the unu-
sual prevalence of the worst crimes,
the frightful work of pestilence, of war,
and of storms and of cloudbursts, it will
doubtless tend to revive the fears of the
timid and the wonder dispensations of
those who are given to the marvellous,
and lead many to wonder if, after all,
the predicted end of things terrestrial
! may not be near at hand.
But people of common sense will not
be affected by such sensations; and after
the dreaded year of 1880 or 1881 (Which
ever it is) has passed in safety and
quiet, and things are found to have
gone on in the usual way, the nerves of
the sensation lovers will also, it is to
be hoped, become quiet once more,
till some new date for the final catastro-
phe is fixed upon.-N y NeUS.

Three Volcanoes at Once

Not once in ceneuries does a time
occur in which, as at present, all of the
three great active volcanoes of the
world are in full blaze together That
singular fact now exists. CotopaXi, in
1 Ecuador, the great active fire mount
ain of the Andean cham is reported to
be in full and tremendous actiyity--his
towering, snow-covered peak, rising far
above the high mountain valley of
Quito, and twenty thousand feet above
the sea, being crowled by a roaring
sheet of flame, and belching forth lava,
ashes and thunder.
If other South American volcanoes
are again actiye-as Chimborazo (high-
en- than CotopaXD and Aconcague, loft
lest of all--no news of it have been re-
ceiyed. But in Italy both of the great
volcanoes are in action--an unusual cir
cumslanee. Ktna, the great mountain
! in the island of Sicily, is seldom in ac-
I scarcely once in q century and
far more rare is the occurrence of a
simultaneous eruption of Ktna and
Vesuvius. Both are now in full activ-
ity, and the sight, at night, of either

Resources of Alaska.

American enterprise is demonstrating
that Alaska, which has been much
sneered at, is endowed with the solid
elements of prosperity. 1t contains
deposits of gold, silver, copper, graph
ite, lead, iron, sulphur and coal. Its
waters swarm with fish; millions of
salmon of the finest quality frequent its
inlets and rivers, and there are halibut,
Goldfish, and its islands and coasts are
the favorite haunts of countless seals. Its
mountains are covered with pine for
ests and shipbuilding timber, and their
is prairie land and pasture grounds
near the coast. The climate is milder,
less rigid in winter and less rainy than
in the south OF Scotland. Its purchase
may not turn out to be as great piece
of folly as has been charged.-Harttori

cheerfully, begging them not TO mem

show what genuine appreciation Of
