A Seine OF WILD CONFUSION.

The North Cambria struck the Avocund
amidshiDs with great force and cut half
way through her hull. There were twelve
passengers on the steamer, including seve-
raj women and children. A scene of wild
confusion followed the collision. The ter
rihed passengers rushed half-clad from
their berths 10 the deck. The five boats
belonging to the steamer were cleared
away and the passengers and crew, which
numbered twenty-five persons, hastily en-
tered them. Rowing q short distance the
boats lay by for two hours until the Avo-
cund sank. The North Cambria then
picked up the people in the boats and car
ried them to Dover. Some of the personal
effects OF the passengers and crew were

No Remedy In the Books,

Sir William Temple relates the fol-

most celebrated man of the medical
profession in his time:
A certain great lady came to him in
much distress about her daughter. and
the physician began the investigation
of the cas- by asking:
"Why. what ais herl'
"Alas. doctor" replied the mother,
II cannot tell, but she has lost her
humor, her looks, her stomach. Her
strength consumes every day. SO as we
fear she cannot live"
why do you not marry herr

and have offered her rs good a match
as ever she could expect"
rs there no other that you think she
would be content to marryT"
"Ah, doctor, that is it that troubles
us; for there Is a young gentleman we
doubt she loves hat her father and I
can never consent to-"
why, look you, madam, " replied the
doctor, gravely, being among all his
books in his closet. then the case is
this: your daughter would marry one
nan and you would have her mary
another. In all my books I find no
