WVETENBERG.

The house of Wurtemberg. it is said,
derives its name from the following le-
gend A poor burgher fell in love with
the daughter of the Emperor of Austria,
and, as the two young people saw no
prospect of obtaining the imperial con-
sent to the union, they fed together
into Suabia. where they bought small
piece of land, and established an inn.
1t stood at the foot of a mountain, and
its possessor therefore went by the name
of "Wirt am Berg" or the Landlord
at the Mountain" One day the En-
peror was travelling to Frankfort, and
stopped on his way at his daughters
house without recognizing her. She
knew him directly, and persuaded her
husband to make himself known to the
Emperor, and to beg his forgiveness.
Accordingly, taking their little son, they
all fell at his feet, entreating his pardon,
which he willingly granted. Moreover,
the Emperor created his son-in-law n
Duke; but in memory of this occur
renee he was to keep his name "Wirt
am Berg" which subsequently became
Wurtemberg.

GOOD WATER FOR ZONE CONSUMP-
TION,

If the water Of the Nile could he con.
veyed in buckets to London, the venture
asa commercial speculation would proha-
bly, prove great success. In work by
Maillet, published last century, entitled
Observations on Several Passages Of
Scripture. as Illustrated by Voyages and
Travels in the East" he speaks in rap
lures Of "the extraordinary delicious
ness Of the Nile" 1t is, he says, 30 de-
liciOus that one would not wish the heat
should he less, nor to he delivered from
the sensation Of thirst. The Turks find
it so extremely charming that they ex-
cite themselves to drink of it by eating
salt. 1t is a common saying that, if
Mohammed had drunk of it, he would
have begged Of God not to have died,
that he might always have done it. In
truth, when one drinks Of it the first
time, it seems to be some water pre-
pared by art. It has something in it
inexpressibly agreeable and pleasing to
the taste. and We ought to give it. per-
haps, the same rank among waters
which champagne has among wines.
Its most valuable quality is that it is in.
tinitely salutary. Drink it in what
quantities you will, it never in the least
degree incommodes YOU. This is so
true that it is no uncommon thing to see
some persons drink three buckets of it
in day without finding the least incon-
venience." A water of this description
is precisely what We require in London.

THE slow growth of the river I'd *ns IS
one of the most noteworthy facts

New Orleans, which has scarcely any
railroad business, and depends chiefly
on river business, has fallen behind all
tie other large cities ill its rate of
growth. Vicksburg has actually fallen
off in population, and Memphis is IL
smaller city than il was ten years ago.
st. Louis, which has been snubbcd and
cheated by the railroads up to very re-
cent times, has felt the effect of her iM-
perfect railroad connections very severe
ly. On the Upper Mississippi there is
most plentiful lack of growth. Quincy
has barely held its own. Hannibal is
frantically looking over the census tables
for its lest children. The only towns
that have kept up with the natural rate
of growth owe it to their railroad con-
nections. and it is not until we come to
Minneapolis and st. Panl, which are
not river cities. hut railroad cities. that
we encounter that rapid growth which

The competition between the rival
routes for the interoceanic canal has cut
down in a rather amusing manner the
estimates of cost made by their pro;ec-
tors. Every time that NJ. De Lesseps

subject is equivalent to an announce
ment that he has discovered new
