EntOnnbed Alive.

A young couple strolling through
the Western Cemetery at Portland,
Maine, on Monday, accidentally
stepped across large tomb, when
the Wondering woodwork gave way
and they fell sixteen feet down among
the dead. The tomb had not been
opened for many years and was fill
ed with bodies. The unfortunate
couple were alone in the cemetery
and could do nothing, except to try
to make themselves heard, and at
last Mr.. James Mcdonald went to
their assistance, and found them
wedged in between collins. Had the
accident occurred little later, they
might have remained for hours in
the terrible place of confinement, as
very few persons visit that part of
the grounds. Both were badly in
jured, and the young lady received
what it is feared may prove to be a
great mental as well as physical
shock.

Our Washington letter.

WASHINGTON, d. O., September 8.
Well, we have narrowly escaped
terrible disaster. An itinerant earth
quake, with blood in its eye, came in
Tuesday night, and nearly scared US
out of our wits. 1t was by far the
most unwelcome visitor, Washing
ton has received for many day. 1t
not only caused alarm, but consider
able damage. 1t shook people out
of their beds, and the very leaves off
the trees. People at first were at
loss TO understand the cause Of the
disturbance. Some said that Chica-
90 dynamiters were practicingin the
vicinity, while others, in frightened
whispers, spoke of the Last day.
Finally scientist, who had been
busily working out the problem,
shouted-earthquake.
There appears to be no satisfac-
tory way of explaining the cause of
the late phenomenon. have listen
ed to score oftheories, read score,
and conceived score. The most
feasible, although not very lucid
theory, comes from member of the
Geological Survey. Speaking of the
cause of earthquakes he says 1T is
he concentrated attraction of the
sun and moon on the mass Of the
earth, operating conformity with the
centrifugal force ofthe earth in rev.
olutioD. That is at the bottom.
The result is the tidal systems, viz
of the ocean, of the air, and of the
fux mass, boxed up within the thin
crust of the planet A moments re-
flee ton will make clear the true re-
suits. One element is proximity.
Perigree and perihelion are prime.
The equinoxes are very effective
crisis, as is shown in this now current
period"
Those who have studied Astrono
my, will mark, the astute phiioso
ply of the above theory My theo
ry is, that on account of superior
conjunction the isothermal line has
squirmed itself out gifts normal po-
sition. The change of this line has
brought the tropics ona parallel with
New York and Canton, Ohio. This
idea has weaved itself into my mid
night slumbers, and caused me great
| care not whether other
Philosophers regard this as rational
or not. With me it is not an opin-
ion--it is conviction.
Soothsayers are unanimous in the
opinion, that more earthquakes are
to follow. This is an interesting,
but we trusG, apocryphal prophecy.
Sufficient unto the day, is the evil
thereof is an adage, well worn at
the elbows, but never trite. We will
just cling to this bit of wisdom until
visited again. ALTO.

England has now SIS, 600, 900 invested in

Germany obtained the whole of the Congo

and they calculate to raise all the wheat
they need themselves soon, leaving the two
thirds of our whole wheat crop we used to
export, on our hands, which will make

would be happy. In the first place, the
probabilities are that no other man will
fall in love with her, and you will there
fore, never suffer the pangs of jealousy
secondly, she will be thankful to you,
for marrying her and frowning upon
pretty girls of her acquaintance that
she will ever be grateful to you and
love you with love such as a girl with
a pretty face can bestow upon nothing
but her looking glass.
