Drunken Women.

This morning MtrN H"nris had a
hearing before the Mayor on the charge
of being drunk and disorherly. The officer
who made the arrest testified that at a
late hour last night crowd of young
men were making a great deal of NOISE
at Front and Madison streets, and he
arrested one of the number, when Mary
interferred and aided him to escape.
AS she has frequently been before the
Mayor, he imposed fine of 81 and

Sudden lime ss,

Last night Mrs. Annie, wife of John
Guthrie, of this Office, felt quite unwell
after she had retired, and arose with the
intention of going down stairs. While
she was on the landing at the top Of the
steps she felt dizziness, and barely
had time to set down the lamp when
she fell unconscious to the floor. The
noise made by her falling reused her
husband, who labored with her for
some time before she was restored
1t is supposed that it was caused by an
attack of vertigo, or rush of blood to
the head.

Plain Russia.

Russia Is so destitute of striking
geographical features that there would
seem to be no reason why great city
should spring up at one spot rather
than at another. For hundreds, nay
for thousands of miles together, it is
one dead level, one vast overwhelming
plain, bounded only by the horizon
which it seems to cut in straight
line. as in the contact between sky
and ocean. The sun sets behind this
level eXpanse as it does at sea. Look
over the intervening space into the far
distance and the illusion is complete
You might fancy yourself in the
midst of the Atlantic in a calm.
Even the Ural Mountains are said to
be a geographical imposture. There
is a general elevation of the surface of
the country, but no breach of con-
tlnuity, no vast or even perceptible
upsetting. In such country little
hill has its value, and the Kremlin is
a little hill thrown up on the serpen-
tine and picturesque but shallow
Moskwa. The spot has also the politi-
cal recommendation of being situated
as nearly as possible in the centre of
old Russia that is, of Russia as it
was before its enormous extension
eastward.

NJ. de Lesseps states that the evapo-

The camphor tree has recently been
introduced into California and promises

what. 1t grows well all along the
coast, and one tree at Sacramento has
already attained a height of thirty feet.
1t is easily propagatcd from seed or
cuttings. Besides producing the we'll
known drug, the tree is valuable as
timber.
A non-conductor of electricity has
yet to be found, for all substances
hitherto discovered are conductors of
the force under certain known condi-
lions, but those which offer Il great
resistance to it serve the purpose of
non-conductors in practice, although
they may all be either classed as good
or bad conductors. The best con-
ductor known as yet is silver. The
worst conductor is parailinc.

A Boys Sermon that Slaid BY.

1t was the first effort he had ever
made to speak in public, 1t was in Il
union praise meeting, following great
revival, in a college town. The boy
blushing and agitatcd, yet, wishing to
add his word of advice and thanksgiv-
ing, began abruptly:
"Ny dear brothers and sisters, hope
you will all take hold; and when you
get hold, keep hold
The youth was so confused, that he
repeated the same words over and
over, apparently unable to stop, or to
catch a new sentence. Some of the
young people, who had religion, but
were not oil | enough to have pity or
consideration, began to laugh, when a
big hearted man (nonc other than
Brother Ben Bristow, of COvington) J,
struck out with the always appropriate
ejaculation. "Thank Cod" and then,
with that great melodious voice of his,
began the hymn-"Am l a soldier of
the Crosse"
Pending this inquiry the youthful
disciple sank, red and perspiring, into
his seat
am uncertain whether any honest
effort is fruitless. That poor lad
thought, no doubt, that that was a
failure. | have often wondered
whether he ever tried it again--whether
he did "keep hold" The talk of the
college professors and the min. t"?a II
the evangelical churches assembled in
that union meeting have faded from
my remembrance entirely, but the poor
boys wrctched eXhortation remains at
least in one heart.
