Mr.. Philip Gilbert Hamerton has re
Gently asserted, without going behint

sons, that white wines are much more
Intoxicating than red. An old school

marked. White wine is particularly in

persons who use much of it attain ole
age with their faculties unimpaired
But the reason why red wine is less in
toxicating is not reassuring to the ha-
bitual users of it. Red wine, it seems,
contains a good deal of tannin, which
exercises an astringent influence on the
tissues of the stomach, closes it's pores,
and prevents the alcohol in the wine
from going to the brain. AS between
running the stomach with tannin and the
nervous system with alcohol, there is
little choice. Beer would be better, but

Northwest Passage.

If Arctic explorers have not discov-
cred practical Northwest passage
whales have, as is shown by the fact that
whales have been captured in the North
Pacific having harpoons that were
thrown into them on the other side of
the continent. Capt. Bauldry, of the
Helen Mar, of San Francisco, has taken
a whale having in it large flint har-
poon, supposed to have been put in by
natives of Cape Bathurst, or the regions
beyond the mouth of the Mackenzie
river, because the natives living to the
westward of that river never use such
weapons, but always bone or iron. A
more positive evidence is found in the
fact that the Captain of the Adeline
Gibbs took whale in the Arctic with
an iron in it which had been thrown the
same season in Hudson bay. This is
known to be the case, because the iron
bore the mark of ship at the time en-
gagged in whaling in the bay.
