which Napoleon Bonaparte embarked
to return to France from his memoir
able expedition to Egypt at the close
of the last century. The -Muiron has
for some years been used for the police
service of the port. That the career
of a vessel with the particular associa-
tions mentioned should have been
finally closed on the very day that
England planted her foot SO firmly in
Egypt, ia regarded as curious coinci-
dence. The disaster is attributed to
the vessel having been struck a few
DAYS before by lightning. She went
down in five minutes. The small crew
and the prisoners on board had mar
row escape.
The shortest courtship On record is
here given: A Newton county (Gt.
widower rode up to the gate of hand
some widow and asked for match to
light his pipe. The lady gave him the
desired article, when he asked: "Did
you ever think of coming to my house
to liver" NO." she said; "if | had it
would have done me no good" In ten
days they were man and wife.-NelO
York telegram. That is not half as
short as the one reported from Califor-
MIA. A miner fell in love with q girl
at first sight, she was equally smitten
with him, and the entire courtship was
"My pet?" "You bet."-Philadelphid
Neaos.
Mrs. Morton's last grand reception
which was given just before her de-
parture for the baths, was a most curl
Gus assemblage of American tourists,
and excited not little astonishment
among the few Parisians present.
There were ladies in every conceivable
variety of costumes; some in walking
dress, some in ball-dress, some in high
neck gowns and long sleeves, others
extremely dscolLette and with no sleeves
at all. One woman, in a costume re-
sembling tiger skin, made great
effect, but was outdone by friend
whose skirt was covered with en-
broidered animals, with a greenland
gold lizard for necklace.-Pdris Core

Mr.. Papineau owns park on the
Ottawa river, at Montebello, and sew
eral years ago he opened it to the pub
lie. He was glad, he said, to be able
to provide place for innocent and
beneficial recreation. But his expert
ence has been such that now he threat
ems to shut the gates. He has found
that among the many respectable and
well-behaved there are always some
who pilfer flowers and fruit, break
down shruhbery. and scatter remnants
of provisions about the grounds. He
will give the visitors one more trial,
ard he expostulates as follows: "Peo-
pie should educate themselves to that
respect of property which is such a
beautiful feature in the character of all
classes in Europe, and which causes
private as well as public parks and
gardens to be freely opened to all COM
ers, and where the most scrupulous re-
gard is shown to the wild as well as to
the cultivated and rare plants and
flowers, none being ever touched.

IMMENSE IMMIGRATION.
One Million Foreigners VIII Land In
America During the Present Year.

America During the Present Year.
According to official information
recently furnished by the secretary
of the immigration commission the
number of immigrants landed in New
York city for the year ended June 80,
1882, was 500, III, out of a total to the
United States of 789, 1908, an increase
of 10000 over the preceding year.
From Jan. /, 1882, to date, the arrivals
here are about $40, 900, the largest num-
Der ever landed here in an equal num-
Der of months. About rs per cent. of
these immigrants go TO the west. 1t is
difficult to ascertain the amount Of
money brought by them; those well-to-
do, fearing that some tax will be placed
on them, uIderstated their capital,
while those who had little or nothing,
concealed their poverty fearing they
may be sent back as paupers. The
great proportion of Immigrants, par
ticularly those going to the far west,
seem to be well provided with funds.
The secretary is of the opinion that the
cash capital of the immigrants coming
the past year would average $85 per
head. The indications favor the belief
that not less than ], 10000 immigrants
will land here this year. A million,
averaging $50 each in cash, means
$50, 900, 900 added to the cash capital
of the land. The secretary says that
in the state of Minnesota alone there
are 123, III foreign-born voters against
88,622 natives, and of the 1885 are
negroes. The foreign element of that
state is IS per cent, and as against AZ
native born. In Wisconsin there are
220,819 foreign-born voters to 1S9, 469
native voters. Last week an immense
tract OF land, several thousand acres,
was purchased in Dakota, and the
agent said: eve expect large num-
Der of families from Dorsetshire, /

INJuRIOUs HABITS.

Avoid all habits that are injurious TO the
health. The practice of going about the house
winter mornings with naked feet often causes
bad cold that may end in consumption. Rapid
eating causes arrangement of the digestive or
gans. A quarrelsOme habit may end in murder.
The habit of taking severe cathartic medicines is
very unwise. When suffering from indigestion,
etc., it is best to strengthen those organs by
using DIR Guysott's Yellow Dock and Sarsapa-
rilla. It assists nature in restoring health and
strength to every part of the body.

A Subterranean Abyss Swallows Up a
Child.
London Times.

The Zirknitz Sea in Carniola is re-
markable for the periodical disappear
ance of the water every summer,
subterannean passages serving as chan
nels of escape. A rapidly ripening
crop of grass and some quick
growing vegetat les are gathered dur
ing the autumn from the dried bed of
the lake by the neighboring peasants.
A letter from Lysbach reports singu-
lar accident of which the place was
the theater. a peasant woman and her
daughter were being conveyed in a
cart across the bed of the lake, which
was still covered with water in some
places. Suddenly the cart and its oc
cupants were precipitated into the
chasm, through which the water was
being swallowed down in great vor.
tex. and which had not been noticed
till too late. With great difficulty the
woman was rescued, but the child and
cart were sucked down into the abyss
