Preference of cannfbals for Chinamen.

Preference of Cannibals for Cinnamon.
The black cannibals of northern
Queensland are exceedingly partial to
Cinnamon. The reason is said to be that
the flesh of the Chinese is peculiarly
tender and palatable, owing to rice being
their staple article of diet. There is now
a numerous Chinese population in the
north of Australia, and scores of them
who have ventured beyond the confines
OF civilization have been captured and
devoured by the natives. This explains
the nonchalance with which the northern
Queensland surveyor recently reported

Catarrh of the ears and catarrh of the
.Eustachian tubes often cause deafness.
Catarrh of the stomach loads the stomach
with tough phlegm and interferes with
digestion. Catarrh of the gall bladder
obstructs the outflow of the bile, which
is absorbed into the circulation, and thus
gives rise to jaundice. Catarrh of the
bladder is a dangerous disease, from the
difficulty of getting rid of the mucus.

TIE FOUNTAINS.

An through the frozen land we sped,
Through cuttings white and marshes
drear;
Through black plantations, grim and dead,
And forest giants darkly sere.
The landscape fed and passed below,
And gazing still. we saw no more
Than one great cherries waste of snow.
An ocean with no farther shore:
Until the mountains rose around.
So sternly from the icy earth,
And beauty. though rejected, found
A home in her own very dearth-
Ooid they were, pride intensified
In every line so gaunt and grim
"A mantle and a pail of pride,
That fingered when all else grew dim
The rocky heads all powdered DER,
And in the valley far below
A forest tangle, and once more
A long and stainless slope of snow.
They seemed as mourning for the past,
In hopeless mourning for an age
So distant now, its records cast
But mystery on earth's dim page.
They seemed as frowning on the eye
That arrogantly dared to read
The secret thoughts they laid so by,
And to such silence had decreed.
They seemed as wrapped in voiceless scorn
Too passionless to stop to hate,
That anything of mortal born
Should dare one thought to penetrate.
1met them, and left them so,
Still watch ing from their fortress white,
Their cold, vast citadel of snow,
To see the first approach of night
Longing to feel its shadows glide,
And veil their grief and hide their pain,
With eager longing. even pride,
Though measureless, could not restrain

WRECK OF AFAST EXPRESS.
Miraculous Escape of Passengers from
Dsnth-The Wrcckers.
fBy telegraph to the Dispatch.l


SACRAMENTO. CAL. October l2.-The fast
west-bound express on the Centrai Ia
cific, which passed Colfan early this morn.
ing on its way to this city. was wrecked
about midway between New England
Mills and Colfax. The train passed
through deep cut and out to an en-
bankment which had been thrown up To
preserve the grade. Engineer Estabrook
did not detect anything wrong until the
first two cars were slightly derailed. Tho
baggage-car and the two day coaches re-
manned on the track, but the four Pull
mans and the caboose left the track. Ihe
Pullman sleeper Vera Cruz turned on Its
side and rolled down the embankment for
fifty feet before its progress was stopped;
In the eleeper were ten passengers. all
asleep at the time of the crash. They es-
capped. They were all hustled about IN
most ruthless fashion, but miraculously
escaped with the lively shaking up. Inc
only person injured seriously was the
colored porter of the Santa Cruz.
Investigation showed that an attempt
had been made to wreck the train. Spikes
had been drawn from several of the out
side rails on the outer edge of the en-
bankment Just at a point where the track
makes q curves. No spot better adapted
to the plot could have been selected. and
it was evidently selected in the hope that
the engineer. fireman. and employees in the
baggage and mail-cars would be killed rs
soon as the forward part of the train struck
the loosencp rails. Then the three cars
could be looted. and as they carried q
great quantity of mail the plunder would
have been very profitable. 1t was also
found that the angle e-plate to strap the
rails together had been priced off and
jammed under the rail.
The passengers in one of tho coaches
caught glimpse of one of the wouid-be
wreckers as he rushed off. The Dalton
gang are supposed by many to have had a
hand in it. The passengers were trans
ferred and brought to Sacramento. Much
harm was done to tho road-bed and roll
ing-stock. and it was miracle that no
lives were lost. The track is now clear and
trains are running on time.
The railroad company has offered re-
ward each for the arrest and conviction of
the party or parties implicated III causing
the derallnent.
The train had between 500 and 1000 pas
sengers. many of whom were scratched and
bruised, but no fatalities are thus FAR re-
ported.
