ton even in these exciting times, and which
may be read with profit Us we'll as pl easure.
"a Visit to Naples" by Theodore Child, de-
the outbreak of cholera, the state of mat
ters at the Quarantine ground, where the
writer was detained for fortnight, the
street life, social habits and industrial con-
ditions, not emitting the beautiful scenery
and surroundings. Charles B. Todd gives
the most vivid and exhaustive account that
has yet appeared of the Oil-Region of
Pennsylvania, describing the successive dis
coveries and speculations. with their I'M
paralleled ups and downs, the history of the
different companies that have monopolized
the production or transportation of oil, and
the present condition and prospects Of this
vast industry. In contrast to this paper il
that in which Edmund Kirke" concludes
his interesting narrative of n winter jour
ney on tho French Broad in North Carolina,
among a population whose condition and
way of life is as primitive and rude as if it in
habitad some region far remote from the
centres of progress and civilization. Among
the lighter articles in the number are 1.-THE
Philosophy and Art of Dancing" by Nor
man Pearson, "A Western Industry" by M
II. Catherwood, and "Why Not IN Ameri-
can Punch?" by E. G. Reynolds. "Felicie's
Reception" by Kate Putnam Osgood. and
Somehow" by Mary Bigelow Francis, are
capital short stories, and Miss Tincker's
"Aurora" is carried forward with the same
interest and beauty of style that have mark
ed the previous instalments.

Vhc frequency Of Ocean Disasters.

The Frequency of Ocean Disasters.
More than 1900 lives a year are lost
by disasters to steamships. and that
fact, although little needed, is vastly
more appalling than the statement
that the State of Florida and the bark
Pomona collided in midoceau recently,
and both vessels sank almost instantly,
carrying down To death nearly $50 per-
sons. There is an average of one steam
ship disaster for every week of the year,
and no indications are visible that the
rate will diminish The people are
mortified 10y such tragedies OF the sea as
the loss of the State of Florida. the
wreck of the Steiumaun off Sambro
Light last month, and the destruction
of the Cily OF Columbus of Gay Head
IN January; but they are probably I'M
aware chat the aggregate annual loss
of life by steamship disasters is more
than 0s great as the loss of life by the
greatest marine catastrophe of history,
the laundering OF the British man-of-
war ROYAL George, i'm ISL with 1000
men ON board. or they would not be
