An Tnleresting CounIrr.

The London Times has a long letter
from an occasional correspondent
which contains a mass OF very inter
esting information about British Bur-
nah, a corner of the world but little
known. During the last ten years.
owing to the health aud fecundity of
the people, the population hasincreased
by 80 per cent.
In the same time the cultivated area
has increased from 1900, 900 to $780,
600 acres, the sea-borne trade from
$50, 000,00 to $50, 600, 900, the land
revenue has doubled, aud the total
number Of children 10 schools has
risen from 2456 to $3.50. One Of the
chief resources of Burmah lies in its
teak forests, which have supplied a
yield Of 227 600 tons for some years
past. There age fifteen printing presses
in the province and eight newspa-
peTs.
The chief items of export trade are
rice, timber, aud Clutch "a resinous
gum used for dying and other pur-
poses but. the rice produceIs the prin.
cipal support Of the province. The
value OF the rice exported last year
was $28,275,00O. The imports of cot
ton, yarn, silk, wool, and apparel hav,
greatly increased. and large works ar,
going up for the manufacture of TO-
bacco aud of paper from bamboo.

8 o'clock in the morning, bis first glass

Of a light care, took a stroll through

esty ebatted pleasantly with the ladies,
the superior officers, the hieh fune-
tionsrles, or the little children whom

perOr took Kesselbrunner waters as
well as those Of Kranchen, the prom
enade lasted until ten o'clock, when

a. the CurhaDs for breakfast.
The afternoons were given up TO
business, for every day brought mes
seDgers with enormous dispatches
from Berlin. Then the reports Of
General Albedyll, Councillor vii.
moski, or N. de Bulow we're gone into.
At 4 o'clock dinner was served, TO
which the principal members Of the
Emperors suite aud the distinguished
persons who had been during the day
were iayited. After dinner there was
a long drive. Towards s o'clock the
old man returned 10 the town and
visited the theater, often on foot

GEORGIA elects a Governor and

Congressman will be chosen NOvem-
Der 7th. Ohio will elect minor State
officers and Congressman on Tuesday
next; West Virginia will choose Con.

twenty seven States will vote, Penn.

a disturbing element, prohibition, and

COLLECTOR Robertson, Of New

Lovers of Rocks.

Catullus was evidently book lover.
In the clergy addressed to Manius
Allius he laments that most of his
volumes are lett at Rome, and that he
has brought with him only one case
out of the many which he possesses.
Be sure that there was a snug little
bibliotheca in the villa at Sirmio, and
that the pinnace which flashed along
the Lydian lake" when it did not bear
some laughing Lesbia, had a corner
where a precious papyrus might be
slowed. Seneca knew the charms OF
books, and the Plinies, uncle and
nephew.
The elder Pliny was used to say
that he had never found a volume out
of which he did not get good, and the
Laurentine villa Of the younger, with
its bookcase for such works as can
never be read too often" shows like a
green islet amid the black fen of later
Roman life. But Cicero was the great
biblomaniae Of antiquity. Every one
knows the famous passage, in the ora
ton PRO Arohia" about the delights
Of study. IT'S a noble scene-the
great orator pleading the cause Of his
beloved learning at the bar Of the
ages.
Nor was it his genius alone that
Cicero devoted to the service Of books.
Many a boarded sesterce went to in
crease his store of volumes, for rich
man though he was, he was always
saving to add to his library. In his
letters he more than once entreats his
friend Atticus not to part with his col.
lection until he Cicero had laid by
enough to purchase il. The hours
which others gave to business, to
pleasure, and even to sleep, he spent
in reading. His books were the soul
Of his home. "Since URANUS has
arranged them" be says "a new spirit
seems to animate my house" MOI
was his own library enough. We find
him feeding on Faustus's collection al
Puccoli, devouring books with Diony.
sius, sitting With CATO among the vol
umes Of tho young Lucullus. How ht

works (notably Of that treatise "Or

feet right to DO. At shis point Mr..
Prices friends took the matter up and
