Fs! ,AY EVENING. OCTOBER IT.

CLIMBING THE MATrERHoRN.-The Al.
pine guides in Zermatt are very m"cn
worried at the recent exploit of pa.ly
OF German gentlemen who have under
taken the difficult task of ascending the
Ma,terhorn without guide. The Matter
horn has been the great source of revenue
among the guides, as it is the most dang :
oas of all the peaks of the Alps. The plucky
tourists are two young physicians frcin
Vienna, a teacher of gymnastics from Saz
burg and Prof Schulze. from Lelpslc. oh
a former occasion the same gentlemen as
cended the Mont Rose and the Welshorn ny
themselves. By dispensing. with tne ser
vices of guide they saved seVeral nun
dred francs They relied entirely upon !"
raised map of the Alps, prepared ny , tns
English Alpine Club, which they eareiu'S
studied. 1t is most remarkable thaI 'he se
tlemen have determined to DO "ltnou1 .n'
flask of cognac which is regarded oy every
nnida 40 of more importance than bread
Instead, they have provided themselves
with lime Juice. AS we supposed. they nae
totan the road across Wallis TO the Berne
hjohlands to visit the Finsteraarhorn. y
toHrist. who returned to Zermatt few days
ago. reported that he met the party, en-
camped on one of the lower peaks, "nere
thew we're driven to seek refuge from the
severe storms which prevail at this season.
Commenting upon the undertaking the
Berne. Switzerland, Union says: III the
party returns without an accident it Ger
tainiy will not make our guides, happier,
and their business must necessarily suffer
also the trades people in our city. Yet In
spite of all we cannot help speaking IN the
highest terms of praise of the pluck and en-
DURANGO of the 'four-leaved clover when
is travelling somewhere amid the dangers OF
the Alps without guide"
