Which is Right

A doctor says: "When a lethargic
feeling pervades your system, when you
have a dissemination to move about,
when you have an adherence of exercise,
your liver is torpid, you are unwen."
But an old father, whose son was affected
in this way, and showed all the symptoms
described by the doctor, gave a different
opinion: "Sick? Not much; it's lazi-
ness that ails him."

The storm raging on the British Coast the
past week was the most severe known there for
forty years past. The following details are
cabled: "a gale of exceptional violence ragged
along the Lincolnshire coast last night and this
morning. A Swedish brigantine, bound from
Hull to Copenhagen, was observed to be in dis
tress on Sutton. With the aid of a rocket ap-
paratus q line was thrown over in the vessel,
but the crew were unable to use it. A lfe-boat
was then tried to be got out, but in conse-
quence of an accident it was found impossible
to launch it. The poor fellows on board,
who could be heard piteously crying
for help were obliged to be left to
their fate. The vessel became q total wreck.
At Grimsby many vessels are lying along the
coast, high and dry, in q manner never seen
before. Sixty ships are ashore between
Grimbsby and Titney Haven and one hundred
and eighty between Grimbsby and Mablethorpe.
The loss of life is not yet known, but it is be-
lieYed to be not very heavy. The Charles Dick
ems, from Philadelphia, bound for Amsterdam,
stranded at Merlinmont. One of the crew was
saved and twelve are still missing. The brig
Mathilde Lagos, from Flensburg, was wrecked
at Andresselles. Two Of her crew were saved
and eight are missing. Many travellers are miss

two lives are lost. The State of Pennsylvania,
due at Greenock on Monday last, arrived to-
day. She experienced terrific easterly gales
during the whole passage, but landed al
the cattle she shipped. At Watterstem
the storm ragged with unparalleled
fury. Eleven vessels were driven ashore,
most of them becoming total wrecks.
Intelligence has been received from Yarmouth
of the loss of the fishing boat Cleaner with her
crew of ten or eleven hands. A vessel was
driven ashore at Cromer during the gale this
morning, and the body Of q boy was found in
the cabin. At Well, on the Norfolk coast, the
life-boat went to-day to the assistance of o
brig which was hoisting signals Of distressl
Before the vessel was reached, however, the
life-boat capsized and only two of her crew were
saved. The disaster occurred in full view OF
the people ON the shore. Serious floods are re-
ported at B~arnbury, Bournemouth, Chester,
Coleshill, Derby and Darlington. Thousands
of acres of land arc inundated in Leicestershire.

A Denial.

Dublin, 2S.-The statement re-
ported in the Irish newspaper TO
have been made at a meeting at
Buffalo, New York. on Sunday, that
the defaulters in payment of rent are
excluded from the Mansion House
relief, was considered st public
meeting and this committee desires to
say that this statement, if made, is
totally without foundation, and that
it ia impossible to conceive how it
could have been uttered. Real dis
tress is the only condition for obtaining
assistance from this committee. 1t
scts exclusively through local orgsni-
cations which include clergymen and
lsymen OF all denominations and
opinions, rendering impossible the
alleged distinction between the
sufferers. This committee meets three
times weekly and is composed OF the
representative men of all shades OF
opinions, whose sole anxiety is to
keep their fellow countrymen from
perishing of hunger. The meetings
of the committee are open to the
press. Also with reference to the
statement alleged to have been made
at Rochester, New York, it is hardly
necessary to say that no individual
newspaper was priVy to the organiza'
ton of this fund; and that tits utterly
incorrect to say any outsider paid
for the kilograms sent By
this committee. The fret telegram
the committee itself paid for. Subse-
quent teiegramF, aud this one, we're
sent free through the Associated
Press by the generosity of the Anglo
American Telegraph Company.
