all the way from the antipodes. The
camera obscura at the Melbourne Expo
sition commanded q view of the streets
of Melbourne, and also of the steps lead
ing up to the dome. On the occasion in
question, the exhibition was not very
full of visitors, and while several persons
were looking at the camera they observed
the reflex OF young gentleman and lady
coming up the stairs towards the dome.
Their looks told how far they were en-.
tangled in the meshes of love, but they
need not have betrayed it quite SO OPEN
ly as they did. Both gazed anxiously
around; no one was looking, the oppor-
tunity was too good to be lost, and so the
languishing swain clasped his lady love
in his arms and imprinted kiss upon
her lips. The sound could not have
betrayed them, but they had forgotten
that unfortunate camera; and amid the
rather inconsiderate laughter OF those
above, they, in hot confusion, beat a
hasty retreat.
1t is certainly, one wonld suppose,
quite within the right of engaged lovers
to find fault with each other for bestow-
ing favo.s of this kind in other quarters
An engaged young gentleman got rather
neatly out OF a scrape Of this description
with his intended. She taxed him with
having kissed two ladies at some party
at which she had been present. He
owned it, but laughingly assured her
that their united ages only made 81.
The simple-minded girl only thought of
10 and IL, and laughed off her pout. The
willy rascal did not explain that one of
the girls he had kissed was 10 years of
age and the other 2.
With the merry, time-honored custom
of kissing under the mistletoe our read
ers, are all, OF course, familiar. Nor is
it necessary to more than allude to the
well-known understanding that a lady,
finding gentlemen asleep, may salute
him with kiss and then claim as q re-
ward pair Of gloves. We have known
young men to go asleep in the most care
less way imaginable, in full cognizance
OF this danger, and lose several pairs Of
gloves before they happened to awake.
Many young ladies would probably
think tho act of kissing q gentleman
whom they Glanced to find asleep rather
a breach of the proprieties than other
wise; but there are few in
stances in which they could not rely
upon the full and free forgiveness of the
persons against whom the offense was
committed-who, indeed. in ninety-nine
cases out of hundred, would be only
too willing to submit to such sweet chas.
tisement, whether asleep or awake and
to pay the penalty without q murmur.-

Waterfalls Under Ground.

A party explored the Blowing Springs
Cave for a few hundred feet recently aud
returned x tn tale of marvellous dis
euies, - .-onderful experiences.
f1y party Mas organized by Mr.. j. P.
MoMillin, of this city. to continue the
Investigation He was accompanied by
Mr.. Mark Long, the well-known civil
engineer. They were supplied with coal.
oil torches, pine knots, lanterns, ropes
and all other equipments, besides taking
along levelling rods and transits.
Although the river is very low the water
laves the mouth Of the cave, and the en-
trance was obtained only by crawling
through the water, when at once the
scene changed and they stood in an i'm
mense chamber. The party entered at 9
A. NJ. and remsired in until 8 P. NJ. and
were walking nearly the entire time. By
actual measurement they traversed dis
lance of 1895 feet. and from all appear
ances the wonderful cave extended to an
indefinite length. Their explorations
met with the happiest results and the
wonderful sights which met their aston
ished gaze seem more like views in fairy
land.
They first entered succession of large
chambers from which huge stalatites
hung suspended in countless myrisds
and glistened in the Pickering lights like
diamonds. About 200 feet from the
mouth they encountered another cave.
but it extended only short distance.
Returning to the main cave, they pro-
ceeded further, and following branch
to the right they came upon huge sub
teranean lake. They were unable to
proceed further in that direction, and
again returned to the main cave and ad.
vanced. Ahead of them was heard the
roar of rushing waters and they soon
encountered q waterfall. its height being
81 feet. A branch led to the left, aid
within short distance they beheld an
other waterfall, the cliffs rising to sheer
height OF $50 feet. The water came over
with roar like thunder, the volume be-
ing fully IL inches in diameter. With
the meagre facilities they could not pro-
coed any further in that direction, and
returning to the main channel again ad.
vanced, until their explorations we're
brought to sudden stop by precipit-
GUS wall of solid rock rising to height
OF fully 100 feet.
They then stood in an immense cham.
Der, fully 200 feet wide, almost circular
in shape; walls Of solid stone rose on all
sides, and the roof spsnned it as dome.
From the centre of the dome q stream Of
water poured, falling in the centre Of
the chamber; the stream was fully II
inches in diameter. and was 10y cold and
clear as crystal. Tho party stood almost
speechless with admiration at this sub
lime spectacle, but were barred from
further progress by precipitous walls

Scarlet Fever and Sewerage.

In recent paper on some of the con-
ditirns which modify or increase the in
fective character of scarlatina, DR.. Car
penter takes the ground that while
rigorous isolation is required whenever
and wherever the disease occurs, in its
early stages, it is unnecessary to continue
this for many weeks, as is often done.
He thinks that the isolation might be
restricted to fortnight. He gives the
case of school at Croydon, where scar
latina appeared over and over agsin.
''The unused cesspocl had become the
recipient of the washings of a slaughter
house, and that and cold water had found
q way into the ceespool, sp1b5urther ex.
animation showed that it occurred once
week, displacing the aerial contents of
the ceespool into the closets and urinals
of the boys, and explaining the cause
for complaint. which, at the time they
we're made, seemed unaccountable. The
cesspool was filled up, the slaughter
house sewer was unstopped and made to
discharge its sewerage in the right d.
rection, that is. into the sewer. The
house has been occupied as . school
since 1862, and there has not been any
outbreak of scarlatina among the occu-
pants from that time to this. 1t must be
evident that the cesspool in the school
yard was intimately associated with the
temperance OF scarlatina; that it con
tanned some material which continued
its vitality, being fed with water con-
tanning blood products which material
was displaced by the introduction of
fluid every week. There is large pri-
vate school at Blackheath, where several
outbreaks of scarlatina appeared. A
close examination revealed the fact that
the doors in the lobby acted as suckers
on piston-rod, and drew air backwards
or forwards ont of or into the class
rooms, towards or from the bath room
and latrines. Separated from the boys
closets, and leading out of the latrines,
was q water-closet which was locked up.
1t had been provided for the tutors, but
was seldom used. An examination OF
this water closet gave most perceptible
evidence of sewer smell, especially when
large volume of water had been dis
charged down the latrines. 1t was quite
clear that whenever the latrines were
flushed. or the bath emptied, some part
of the sewer became a closed receiver,
and emptied foul air from the main
sewer into the latrines by this water
closet, and from thence into the class,
room. We have only now to provide
that some OF the factors of scarlatina
shall be in the sewer for them to find
their way into the class room in the
manner indicated. When the disease
appeared in the school it was very prev
alent in the district lower down the hill.
Since 1874, the defective drainage hav-
ing been rectified. no succession Of cases
have appeared at all in the school, and
the one imported case has not been fol-
lowed by any general outbreak. San

The evidence of Ionic, the second in
former, differs in many material points
from that of Farrell. Ionic testified to
the existence of a vigilance committee,
and Farrell to the existence of an assas-
sination circle, the object of the or
ganization being described by Ionic as
assassination. Informer Farrell said it
was organized for the murder of Crown
officials. Ionic swore that he expected
no reward. The girl Carroll gave her
evidence in aflIppant manner. Her testi-
mony conflicted with that of the second
Crown witness Connolly, she maintain
ing that it WAS Joseph Brady who used
the sword in the attack on Field. while
Connolly swore it was used by Timothy
Kelly, another of the prisoners. The
female witness also declared that she

parent mark of haviug been manufac-
tured, and it is believed that the long
remands demanded by the Crown law
yers were to give time to complete the
manufacturing and III che hope that
some of the prisoners might be induced
to inform.
The government wishes to keep up
the excitement, which serves its present
purposes admirably. t
The prisoners here have been refused
to receive visits from their relatives, to

vision of the new Prison Act inserted
&C the demand of Parneu and strongly
opposed by Spencer when the measure
was before the House. English liberal
opinion for the moment was bitterly
anti .Irish, aud their confidence in their
strength was increased by Tory dis
union and incapaci'y which is exposed
by stupid Tory writer's in the journals.
Tue result of the Mallow election has
forced English journals to face the in
evitable return of seventy National
members IL the next ele c:ion The St.
James Gazette advocates the disfran-
chisement of Ireland. and horde of
Liberal members follow Harrington in
screaming, Home Rule will never be
granted" The Pail Mall GG-ette and
. her journals deride these cries and
compare them with similar emphatic
declarations concerning the inadmissi-
biIity of other Irish demands which
were after ali successfully asserted.
The Nations'ists have not yet decided
to contest the PortaIlineton seat or no.
The constituency is extremely small
and usually returns Tory. Shodld
the seat be challenged by the National
party, the result must be uncertain,
but in any case Wing will not be al
lowed to get in.
The feeling of Ireland is faithfully
reflected by O'Brien's triumph in Nal
low. In writing on this subject Tues
day the Dublin Freeman says, Ireland
was never farther from being con-
quered'
