IT is generally supposed that the
North Arctic Zone is extending, and
proofs Is assumed in the increase Of
ice on the eastern shores of Greenland,
and in the fact that barley, which was
successfully grown in Iceland from
its first settlement in $40 down to the
middle OF the fifteenth century, Is no
longer cultivated there. The lee

lately attempted to grow barley on the
island on a considerable scale, and
the results were very favorable. Nor

TIE quaint wit and wisdom and the
deliberately atrocious spelling of Josh
Billings will be missed to a greater
extent by popular readers than some
more pretentious utterances Of pro-
fessional writers for the press. The
irregular photography which he en-
ployed did not, however, add to the
humor OF his productions; it was only
the clownish garb in which he saw
fit to clothe much that was true ard
of high value in morals and htera

scholarly syHtax, his maxims Of lifs

A ROYAL TRAIN.
How the Emperor of Russia Travels
Luxury I'm Hallway Cars
New York Telegram


The train which is always used BY
the Emperor and Empress Of Russia
for long journeys consists of sixteen
carriages, of which the first is
kitchen, and then comes one for police
agents, one for the military suite
three for members Of the household
and two for the Imperial family, each
Grand Duke having an entirely sepa.
rate compartment, which can be fitted
for either day or night use. The car
riage of the Enpress has a separate
sleeping compartment, with ham
mock bed, furniture of ebony and
utensils of silver and an immense
looking glass. There is bath room
completely fitted and compartment
for the leGy in waiting. The EN-
press sitting room contains a writing
table, a sofa and easy chairs.
The Emperor's sleeping carriage is
fitted with olive green leather and
only contains bed and a dressing
table and bath. Then comes a sitting
room, fitted very simple, and lastly
the dining room, which is furnished
with carved oak and merely contains
tables, chairs, and 2 sidcbOad. There
is communication throughout the
train from one esd to the other There
are many Americans who travel quite
as luxBriously as the above potentates,
although they may not have such an
extensive train. A certain wealthy
lady of shis city, who is something OF
an invalid, not being able to bear the
joltng of cars, chartered a steamboat
10 take her to the Jersey coast last
summer. There are number Of the
railroad kings OF the United States
whose travelling cars are works of art
and contain all modern conveniences.

AT a meeting of engineers in Bos~
ton the relative danger from coal and
water gas was considered. This is
the conclusion With coal gas it ap-
peared to be difficult TO introduce
enough into an ordinary room to be
dangerously poisonous; with water
gas it was not only possible but easy
to produce fatal results. AS far as
could be judged, the fatal effects in
the latter case resulted from the high
er percentage of car5onic oxide, There
seemed to be danger line" il the
use of the carbonic oxide, and the
amount necessary for the danger limit
can be gained IN water gas, but not in
coal gas. 1t wat not correct to say
that the former was two or three or
four times as fatal as the latter, any
more than it would be correct to say
that grain of morphia was four
times as dangerous as one fourth of
grain. Beyond certain point little
more would be highly dangerous in
both cases.

The British Raby and His Painter

From the Contemporary Review
 The prevalent pictorial motive of our great painters for the last two three years has been babies, and our old friend the British matron must have st least enjoyed this pe- culiarity to the full in the academy. There are, it is true, about five nude figures in the present exhibition, but it would not be much of an exaggeration to say that there are nearly five hundred babies. Every variety of infantile healthiness or siekliness is dis played here. A new ''Liliputian warehouse might be set up with shoes, socks. capes and bonnets of these Academic ''innocents. " There is, notice, one special kind of bon net, like miniature coal scuttle, lined with plaited satin, which is great favorite with academicians and which they have attained great skill in rendering. Shoes, also, partic- ularly those with 8 strap and one button, are, like Osrie's Carriages, very dear to" their fancy" and short white socks are also suc- cessfulIy treated in several instances. It is remarkable that in this, as of course in all the less important branches of their art, the academicians and associates surpass the out side artists. There are not only larger number of academic babies, but they are bigger chubbier and better dressed than the others. The average toilet of one of these favored stockings must cost about twenty pounds sterling, and as it is invaria- ply of spotless freshness, must be some what costly element in the household expen- ses. The great apostle of this new ''cry of the children" is an associate called Morris, who had the good fortune to discover, in a ! pictorial sense, the universal attractiyeness of the millinery baby"

 Inoculation has been practiced from time immemorial in certain regions-as a religious rite-but not universally. Vaccination of the natives was introduced in 1864, and the only objection that can be urged against it is that it is giving rise to very serious difficult ty by removing one of the most potent checks to that over population which is threatening india as the most serious evil of British rule. In a large district north of AL lahabad where neither inoculation nor vacci- nation is practiced, ninety-fve per cent. of the population are marked, and 'sin the graphic language of the country, each small pox marked case represents death from the disease" The growth of public opinion among the natives during the last twenty years of vaccination experience is curiously shown by the fact that at first, in villages under the inspection of officers carrying out the female infanticide act, only the girls oi high caste were brought to the family dis honor of having unmarried daughters is deemed so great that female infanticide has only been suppressed by stringent legislation. When vaccination was first practiced the prejudice against it was so decided that the girl infants were offered in expectation of it's fatal results, but instead of this "the boys in these families were swept off in numbers by smallpox; the girls lived" Here was 8 1 selective experiment of peculiarly instructive character, the variation in the relative num- ! Der of the sexes being so easily determined.
