The Coal OF Great Britain.

1t appears that about 7,on0, 600 tons
of coal per year is the amount yielded
by the chief coal districts of Great
acknowledgements, South Wales and
Clyde country-and, assuming this to
represent the average consumption foR.
many years to come, it is eatimated that
the British mines will be exhausted in
less than six hundred to eight hum
dred years. 1t is further calculated
that, drawing upon only one Of her
fields, the Westphalian, Germany will
not exhaust that before the end of tho
twenty-seventh century, but that by
the beginning of the year 5000 the big
coal fields of Bavaria and the Aachen
and the Silesian districts will also be
entirely used up What will Europe do
for fuel then? Fall back on the timber

Pauline Metternich few years ago at
Vienna at q dinner which she gave.
The two chief guests were a couple of

there for the first time, and who were
unacquainted with one another. To
each on entering she had whispered
that the other was extremely hard of
hearing, though very sensitive on the
point of being deaf. At dinner they
sat on either side of the princess, and
being each convinced that the other was
deaf commenced shouting at one an
other in such manner as to absolute ly

the two old fellows got angry at being
shouted at by the other, and commenced
to mutter aside concerning the i'm.

of course, that the party whom they
concerned was unable to hear them.
