small escort and will carry with him IL
complete outfit of astronomical and
Typographical appliances. lie will be

Mr. Martin had an experience two or
three years ago that was very annoying
TO him, though somewhat amusing to
dlsintercs;cd persons. lie had with
great pains collected specimens of all the
minerals he could lind in the mining dis
tricts northeast Of lrkutsk, and, after
loading them on mules, he started south
ward i'll advance of his caravan. He
crossed the mountains and there awaited
his party, which arrived in due time, but
minus his collection of minerals. The
mulctcers told him they found climbing
the mountains hard work, and. to make
it easier for the mules, they had thrown
away the collection, knowing that
equally good stones could be picked up
on the other side of the mountain. MIR.
