The Charges Against Arab

CAIRO, Oct. 2O.-It is believed that
the following will constitute the Chi ef
counts Of the Indictment against Arab
Pasha First, that in violation of the
rights OF nations he hoisted q white
flag in Alexandria and under cover
thereof retired with his troops and gave
the city to fire and pillage. Second,
that he melted the Egyptians to arm
against the khedive. Third, that he
continued the war despite the declara-
ton of peace. Fourth, that he melted
civil war. devastation, massacre and
pilIage IN Egyptian territory.
CAIRO, Oct. 2l.-The state OF the
natives is most unsatisfactory. A thin
superstratum of fear overiIes among
them deep hatred of the Christians.
GENEVA, Oct. 2l.-Miuet, Arabs
European adviser, declares that he re-
ceived no rewards for his services, and
that he can prove that the evacn nation
of Alexandria and tue defense of the
country were ordered by the Ministry

tenant were improving. the rents being

" Another subject for thaDkfulness, "

ELEBING FR0H 4 FORTUNE.

The sun rose propitionsly on
Grace Sylvester's wedding morn !;
the air was balmy, the sky blue,
and all nature seemed in sympa-

Presently a stir awoke in the
household, that soon swelled into

her and found it empty. Immedi

All, those days have gone forever, with
their splendid fire and fever.
And their lofty scorn of living, and their
quenchless thirst of fame!
When faith and beauty filed them, and
when love and glory thrilled Them,
And the sacred light of Honor led them like

And the Ministries, tender-hearted! they are
silent and departed,
With their amato-y music. once so delic2 te
and sweet;
Now we never sigh TO hear them, but we fy

Gone the Pirate and the Sea King, and

Furied the banner Of the Rover, hushed his

existence
Is the banging Of the big drum in the play

slight mistake in dates and his

SO charming a wife for him had

delight Of Grace's parents at her

Grace bore her partial defeat
with. charming equanimity, as she
was quite convinced, by some
mental process Of her own, that
she had her husbands love. So
she was reconciled to the posses

SCIENTIFIC MISCELLANY.

The appropriations Of the Brit

poses this year include $4,000 to
tho Meteorological Council for
furnishing weather forecasts to
newspapers without cost. The

The micro, telephone has been
applied by Count Won Eugenberg,
in the Tyrol: to the discovery of
underground streams of water.
He buries several microphones in

depth in the earth.
NJ. Arthur MORN, of Paris, states
that experiments continued for a
nnmb Der of years by garrisoned
cavalry regiments in various

horses are healthier and stronger

in all seasons than where they are
kept shut. Similar observations
have been made in stables contain

Prof. Nordenskjold during his
Arctic voyages was perplexed by
the question, what becomes Of the
bodies Of animals which die a nat
ural death. He very seldom found
such remains, and declared that
on Spitzbergen it was easier to
find vertebrae of monster extinct
reptiles than the bones of the
seal, walrus or bird of the present
day. The problem is yet un-
solved.
A curious burial place was late
ly revealed in New Zealand. An
immense tree, supposed to be
many centuries old was blown
down, and large quantity of hu-
man bones was disclosed in the
hollow interior, some OF the skel-
etons being quite perfect. The
existence ofthe cemetery was uD-
known to the Maoris of the vicln-
ity, who assert that it must date
from a very ancient period.
