Refuge in a Balloon

An eccentric old gentleman in Lincolnshire
England, age eighiy-three, is, it is stated, SO
firmly convinced Of :he approaching end OF the
world, that he has ordered an immense balloon
to be made for his own convenience, by means
of which he hopes to witness tie destruction
of the planet without sharing the fate OF Its
inhabitants. He will take with him in his
ascent timed provisions, brandy, soda-water,
cIaret and other creature comforts IN sufficient
quantities to meet his requirements for three
wears, bv which time he calculates his life will
have come to natural close. he is OF
opinion that among the debris Of the world
will lie several large fragments, on one OF
which he will be able to effect descent at an
opportune moment and find refuge for his
few remaining years. He proposes TO take
with him no companion but gamekeeper, who
has been long in his service and for whom he
has great regard. He has, however, warned
this faithful retainer, who is only ffty-two
wears old. that when the provisions in the bal
loon are exhausted he will have TO shift for
himself. and may therefore in three years
time be without means of subsistence. Having
made these arrangements, the old gentleman is
perfectly calm, and indeed cheerful. He ex-

Notes From Corea-

General A C. Jones, United States Consul
at Nagasaki, Japan, has forwarded to the
State Department a private letter written by
Dr. Frank Cowan giving an account of visit
to Corea, whose mysterious confines he recent
ly succeeded in penetrating. As a naturalist,
and nomiually surgeon of japanese steamer,
he entered the ports Of Fusan and Gimgan, on
the eastern coast, which by treaty are open to
Japanese commerce. During his stay he col
lected much rare information and many
specimens illustrating the physical and social
condition of this strange country and its in
Labitauts. with respect to golG,' writes
Dr. Cuwau, " l am Of the opinion that the

From the North Sea to the Baltic.

This may be known in the future as the era
Of canal digging. One of the many gigantic
projects which are now engaging the attention
Of engineers aud capitalists the world over is
the construction Of u canal between the North
Sea and the Baltic, first suggested after the
conclusion Of the Danish war. According to
the original plan, as drawn by the Pussan
Government engineer Lentze in 1855, the canal
was to run from st. Margarethen, on the Lower
Ellie, 10 Eckernforde, on the Baltic; and the
cost was estimated at 81 100000 marks. Ii
was afterward decided that, in order 10 make
the canal more valuable from a str8tegical
point Of view, it should debouch in the Bay Of
Kiel, and the extra expense Of doing this was
estimated by Lentze at 5O,Og0,0O0 marks
Various objections, however were made to the
plan, Chiefly on the ground Of expense, and il
was ultimately dropped. Other proposals were
subsequently made from time 10 time; and in
1875 a Hamburg engineer. Herr Dahlstrom,
published a pamphlet strongly advocating the
establishment Of waterway between the two
seas as q matter Of international interest, and
suggesting that the work should be under
taken by joint-s.ock company subsidized by
the Government. The state o! the money
market at that time was not favorable 10 the
establishment Of company FOR the purpose; ;
but the matter has now seriously been taken
up by private fnauciers, and a second pamphlet
has been issued by Herr Dahstrom suggesting
that the canal should proceed from Brunsbutte
TO Holteneau, in the Baltic, and estimating its
cost at 90 600. 600 marks.

A Candid Opinion

a Detroit lawyer, famous for his wise and
candid opinions, was the OF er day visited by
young attorney, who explained:
l was admitted to the bar two years ago,
and think know something about Law, yet
the minute l arise 10 address the jury forget
all my points and can say nothing. Now l
want TO ask you if this does'n show lack of
confidence in myself, and how can overcome
it2'
The wise attorney shut his eyes and studied
the case for a moment before answering:
My young friend, if it is lack Of conf
dence in yourself it will some day vanish,
but if it is lack Of brains you had better sell
out your Office effects and buy pick AK and

But how am l TO determine p
