The sadest Alpine accident of the
year occurred recently at Tete Noir
pass, some distance beyond the hotel ,on
the road to Chamounix. Mr. Rivington
of Babbicombe, Torquay, was travel

carriages. A horse in the first car
riagc became FESTIVE, kicked over the
traces, and upset the carriage over the
prccipice, which is not very deep al
that point. The wife was killed, the
father received injuries ON his body,
and had both wrists broken.

great Powers each spend a little less
than Germany, but the difference is
exceedingly small. Italy appears to
pay Just under fi0 and Russia just
over G3S, which Is, as will be observ-
ed, not very much more than q quar-
ter OF the expense required by the
British. On the other hand, q table
showing the proportion of money

penditurc Of the countries tells very
different tale, and almost reverses the
positions on the list of the several
European powers. 1t appears from
the calculation made by the CoaStitu-
tionnel that there is paid toward the
army in England and the colonies
only IA per cent of the budget, and
this percentage is the same in the case
of Italy. Austria Hungary occupies
the next place, with proportion Of
10 per cent, and next come the two
rivals, France and Germany, with
similar total Of Il per cent, Russia
bringing up the rear with an expcn-
diture Of 50 per cent, or double that

Stories OF Jacob Bright.

A story with q quaint, old-world
favor about it is told of the Quaker
cotton-spinner and his Solomon-like
mode Of delivering judgment in cases
which his neighbors brought before
him in an informal way. Some pigs
belonging to a certain Mrs. Ann Jones
used to be put out to feed on Cronkey-
shaw common; but, prompted by
desire tor better fare, they were in
the habit Of straying into Mr.. Bright's
garden, much to the annoyance Of the
man-servant, Samuel Sheriff. Samuel
expelled the swine from time to time
in his own rough way, and one day,
his patience being exhausted, he gave
one of the pigs such a tremendous
blow with stick as to render the
hind legs of the animal completely
useless.
Mrs. Jones appealed to Mr.. Bright
to give her justice, and Mr.. Bright
summoned Samuel, the pig, and Mrs.
Jones before him IN pyOpria persona,
and after hearing all the evidence, and
considering the arguments brought
forward on either side, summed up to
the effect that Mrs. Jones had been to
blame for permitting her pigs to tres
pass in the garden after repeated
warnings, and that Samuel had no
right to deal the pig so hurtful n
blow. His award was that the ami
nal should be slaughtered and divided
intn NJ Inhnu IN nnt "a IA,
the unchanged half, and Samuel to
take the wounded half, paying Mrs.
Jones for it at the then market price
OF pork. Mrs. Jones was thus insured
the value Of the pig, and, at tho same
time, Samuel, though ordered TO pay
a sum OF money, had the satisfaction
Of having his moneys worth Of eating.
Mr.. w. Robertson, who has writ
ten biography Of Mr.. John Bright,
tells us how Mr.. Jacob Bright would
take his stand at the mill-gates Oh a
winters night, with lantern in his
hand, and thick ovcrcoat wrapped
tightly round him, AMI rs his work

4 Remarkable Declaration.

Gen. Grant, the other eve4}ng IN
response to a serenade in Memphis,
softened by the sweet music that was
pouring it's soul-stirring strains into his
bosom, used this extraordinary language:
81 can say to my friends in the South
ern States that there has never been Il
dav when I was not as anxious for their
prosperity as they themselves" If Gen.
Grant intended to convey the idea when
he used the word "friends" that he
meant the whole people Of the.South,
then. indeed, are we dumbfounded, and
we have failed to judge him at all. 1t
is not pleasant to recall the past and
stir up much that might now rest, but
tho bold effrontery Of man who, not
ten years ago, played the role of master
over the South, as exacting as it was
nossible to be, now talking about
"tbere never was a day." &C., is the
most outrageous balderdash and nom
sense.
It seems as but yesterday when he
held over US the iron heel of oppression
in an hundred ways, aud particularly of
lording it over us with a set of officers
that would have disgraced darker age.
He upheld governments that literally
eat out our vitals, and when we were
taxed to death and ground heavily, we
sought redress by direct appeal to him
by q committee of citizens. 1t wa
