OBLIVION.

Alack the day! upon time, not many years
agone
Within the city o; New York . little Smith
was born.
He kicked and grew (as babies wild until one
summer day
He found himself just twenty year. upon LIES
stormy way.
And then began his troubles dire He loved .

Who would not marry him because "His name
is Smith" she said.

appeilatioR.
And though love you, John, I must refuse
your application.

<''Tis good enough for u.s." they said, land
good enough for him.
You see 1t happened-strange to say-they all
were burdened with
The self-same name-that ancient name, the
myriad name Of Smith.
He vowed to travel far away to climes unknown
before,
AndHaggard like explore their depths in search
Of fame and gore.
To many foreign lands he went, but vhereso'er
he came
He found some former voyager had carried
there his name.
The dry goods clerks in every land, the sailors
on the ships,
When asked to tell their names they formed
his name between their lips.
The merchants and the doctors, the nohles-
yes, the Kings,
Pronounced the magic name OF Smith with
varied mutterings.
sadder and . weary man, he sought his IA
tive shores.
But scarcely had he put his foot on Castle Gar
den floors
When waiting for him stood tho maid ne loved
SO long ago:
She started back. then cried aloud in tones
full-fraught with woe:
''H you had waited but one day might have
been your wife,
But just a year ago. dear John, tied myself
for life
g What is your name:" John frantic cried
This Is a cruel myth
With downcast eyes she answered low: my
name-my nsme-is Smith
Five minutes later John was carried home ward
in hack,
And just FIVE minutes after he lay dead upon
his back.
The mourners at his grave were few He was
unknown to fame;
But on his tomb in bold relief they cut: smith
was his name"

A Stupendous Enterprise.

OF that vast work, as projected, the
ship canal between Bordeaux on the
Atlantic seabOard and Narbonne ON the
Mediterranean coast, it is stated that
the cost will be some $3.50, 0O0, 900. and
while its length would be about $50
miles the use of it would be saving Of
nearly 700 miles by vessels going from
Southern France or Northern Italy to
the Northern Atlantic. The plan, it 10
said. contemplates having railroad
run along the margin of the canal. and
using locomotives to tow the vessels
through. by which means, it is be-
lieved, a speed of seven miles an hour
may be maintained both day and night,
as during the hours OF darkness the
canal might be illuminated with cleo
trio lights. There would be, accord
ing to the plan, thirty-eight locks in
the canal. and the depth of water,
twenty-seven feet. would permit French
armor-clad vessels to pass through the
canal, thus uniting the two sea coasts
of the country. and avoiding the pas
sage through the Strait Of Gibraltar,
which might in time Of war be block
AIDED by the fleet of an enemy, and
would deprive the English Of certain
advantages which they now have in the
Gibraltar Notifications. 1t is thought
that, for commercial purposes. the pat
ronage of the canal will be sufficient to
pay q good return on the money invest
ed in its construction.-N.H Sun.

Horse.Flesh in Corea.

G.orean ponies are very diminutive.
not averaging larger than the Shetland
pony. but now and then a larger one is
seen. The foreigners of Seoul. how.
ever. use Chinese horses almest exclu-

China are held what are called spring
races, and hundreds of horses are
brought in from all of Northern China
to be tried, and of course the vast ma
jority of them do not come up to the re-
quired standard and are Immediately
sold of for what they will bring. One
can then pick up a fine horse for $2Oor

from there into Corea. They are large

on the foreign farm which the King
has started here there are two or three
American horses, and they seem gigan.

ATMOSPHERIC STRATA.
Interesting Observations Made On q
East COast Of GroOnlond.

Interesting Observations Made o. tie
East Coast Of Grssnlsnd.
The tendency Of the air to form strata
Of different density and of different tenn
perature. is often indicated by q col
umn of smoke rising through the still
morning air to q certain height. and
then spreading out as cloud. Nat
urally the warmer air, being the
lighter. will be above the heavier cold
air; but as the atmosphere gets all its
heat from the surface of the earth, the
warmer air is at first beneath.
It takes more force to break up these
layers of air and start currents Of ciy-
culation than is popularity supposed.
This will be discovered by those who
have occasion to be abroad on country
roads in the early morning. Driving
into thick wood. or even under thu
lee of woodland. they will. on chilly
August morning, suddenly come into =
warm streak clearly left over from the
heat Of the day before. It does not rise
and give place to the colder air though
it is sensibly lighter.
Some observations made on the east
coast Of Greenland by the German Arctic
expedition, in February Of 1870. yielded
most interesting results. The first re-
port is from an elevation of nine hun
dred and eighteen feet. At that height
the temperature was fraction moro
than twenty-five degrees below zero.
while, at the level Of the sea close by.
the thermometer indicated At the same
time q temperature Of about twenty
eight and one-half degrees above zero.
Here was difference Of almost fifty
four degrees within less than thou
sand feet elevation, and the warmer air
was beneath. In this instance there
was . strong north wind blowing at
the top Of the mountain. no sign Of
which was had below.
Another observation. made on the
18th of the same month, Is Of interest
when taken in connection with the ono
mentioned above. In this case. at .
height Of more than ono thousand nine
and sixty feet. the tempera-
ture was found to be twenty-seven de-
grees above zero. Below it was near
zero. Here. the difference in elevation
was double what It was in the former
case. the di6erencein temperature half
- great, but now the colder air is At
the bottom. Nothing Is said Is to the
wind ct the time.
