Planting Gardens.

The floating gardens in certain parts
of Mexico are among the greatest Curl
osities to be found in that country.
Says a recent visitor:
when q tract of vegetation composed
of reeds, water-plants and bushes, in
terwoven and laced together, becomes
so dense that it will bear a superstruct.
ure, strips of turf 20 to 80 yards long by
2 yards wide, are cut from some suitable
firm place, foated to it down the canal
and laid upon it; this is repeated sew
eral times. and thus an island is secure
ly raised 2 two 3 feet above the level of
the water; a little soil is spread over it,
and it becomes a chinampa, or floating
garden, on which Indian corn, vegeta-
bles and flowers are grown. The gar
dens vary in size from 100 to 200 feet in
length, and from 20 to 100 in width, ac-
cording to the vegetation which sup
ports them. To secure these gardens
in their proper places long willow poles
are driven through them into the ground
below, where they soon take root. The
poles also throw out roots into the beds
of the floating gardens, and SO hold
them steady"

British Generals Slain in Battle
From the Whitehall Review.

FROM the Nnltenall lteyleW.
The death of General Earle calls to
mind how few instances there are of
British Generals being killed on the field
of battle. Since Picton fell in the hour of
victory at Waterloo, the cases have been
very few and far between, no instance
occurring until Sobraon, when that fine
soldier, Major-G General Sir Robert
Dick, was slain ut the head of his dlvis-
ion. Some of the old school of officers
will no doubt recall General Dick, a
hero of countless escapes in his day,
who had been wounded at Mazda, Sc
verely before Rosetta in the Egyptian
campaign of 1901, again in the Peninsu-
la. and Il fourth time at Quatre- Bras,
when he had command Of the Black
Watch. The only remaining instances
are these of Lieutenant General Sir
George Cathcart, "blest," to quote
Kinglake, with a soldiers death in ac-
tion," at the head of the fourth divis-
ion on the field of Inkerman: Major
General Sir George Colley shot through
the head on that awful day at Majuba
Hill-as yet u%navenged; and Major
General William Earle. killed in action
at Dulka. That fine old Horse-Artille-
ryman, Fox Strangways, also killed at
Inkerman, held only brigadier- generals
rank. The tlree general officers killed
in the Indian Mutiry campaign-viz.,
Sir Henry Lawrence, Neil and Penny
belonged to the Indian Army, as did
Sir Hugh Wheeler, slam in his old age
IN the massacre of Cawnpore. Have
lock, Arson and B~arnard-all three Ia
mented victims to the dark days of 1857
were not killed in action, but died of
illness contracted during the campaign.

AFrghtful Snake Story.

More to be dreaded than even our
ra~ttlesnake is the terrible cobra of In
lila, for the that not only is
death swift and certain after his bite,
but the reptile glides into the houses
and lies in wait for his victims in their
bed-ehambers and bath rooms. Some
time since q party Of English soldiers
were gayly playing cards in the guard
room of q barracks in India, when one
of them, named Maxey, Suddenly grew
as still and rigid as a statue.

ENGLAND's GREAT BANK.
An Army of LOO Employees Who are Paid
DOC Per Annu1n.

The total number OF employees all told
in the bank is about ! LOO, and the sal
airy list, including pensions is about
100000 per annum, says the Fort
nightly Review. There is an excellent
library and reading-room in the bank,
to which the directors have literally
contributed both money and books.
There are also a Widows Fund and
Guarantee Society, a life insurance
company, a volunteer company. and a
club, OF dining-room where clerks can
dine chesply and well, connected with
the bank, which owe very much of their
prosperity to the liberality and kind
governors and directors of the bank di-
vide between them GA, 900 per annum
OF this the governors receive 81, 900
each, and the directors $500 each. Be
yond the status which their position
gives them they derive no benefit from
their office, while they tax themselves
most literally by their contributions
toward the welfare of their
clerks. The governor and deputy
governor remain in office for two
years only, and this short tenure of
Office is, with considerable reason,
thought TO be detrimental to the eff
Gent and consistent administration of
the functions of government. The
great blot of the system seems to be the
want of continuity Of policy which is
engendered. A governor, let us say,
is an enlightened financier, for two
years his policy is paramount; but his
successor then comes and perhaps re-
verses everything, and the onus of the
change, SO far as the bank customers
are concerned, is left to be borne by the
permanent officers of the bank, who
have perhaps never been consulted in
the matter, or whose opinions, based on
the experience of many years may be
%ruthlessly ignored. The two-years'
system undoubtedly has its advantages
for the constant introduction of new
blood; it also strengthens the governors
from above and below the chair. The
directors below the chair give the govern
ors loyal and hearty support, because
they feel that one day their own turn
may come, while those above the chair,
having passed through the ordeal know
the value of their colleagues support.
Butthe result of this is, nevertheless,
the institution IF q sort of one-man
power, which is well enough when
there Is a Hubbard, Hodgson or Craw-
ford IN the chair, or if there is a Bar
ing, Hambro, Rothschlld or Goschen
to follow, but which may have its dis
advantages.
