Mandalay the present capital Of
Burmah, has probably by this time
ceased to exist. Two-thirds Of it
were burned on Wednesday and
Thursday, and there were signs of
further fires. Nothing is said OF the
origin of the fires, but il car hardly
be doubted that they were due to IN
cend.aries, aggrieyed either by Brit
ish rule. or more probably by decl-
sions in the Law Courts. The city,
which is built of wood, is not of much
Importance, and the capital should be
transferred to Ava, with strict regu-
lations against the use Of wood, and
withdrainage completed before build
inc begins. The Government, too
should appropriate the land around,
nov almost valueless, so that the
future Municipality may have a re-
independent of taxation. We
have hitherto displayed little fore
sight i'll the construction of Indian
cities, and no originality whatever;
but the selection of a new capital for
Burmah, which ought by-and-by,
when the railway to Bengal is com
pleted, to be unusually rich, gives us
a brilliant opportunity. 1t will not
be taken, we fear, because nobody IN
India reigns long enough to care a.
bout the future; but still, there is the
chance.

The news about Emin Pasha is
very interesting. He broke away, as
our readers know, from his German
friends, and plunged, with a few fol-
lowers, apparently into space. He
had, however, a definite end, which
was to reach the Equatorial Proyin-
ces; and this he accomplished, en-
tering Wadelai in safety, and after
some skirmishes, reasserting his au-
thority over the entire region. He
is, therefore, if this account is cor
rect, and it is believed by the Ger
mans in Africa, virtually Sultan Of
the Upper Nile, reigning either in
his own name, or as nominally a
Lieutenant of the Turkish Khalif.
Romantic as the story is, We see
nothing impossible in it. Emin
Pasha, who processes to be a pious
Mussulman, came away from Wade
all most unwillingly, and almost
under coercion, and always declared
that, if left alone, he could manage
a compromise with his refractory
soldiers. He has great wealth in
ivory somewhere in the province
the people are afraid Of the Mahdl's
followers and though not an able
ruler, he has the art OF seeming or
being a Just and merciful King. He
may found a Kingdom yet, and we
rather hope he will, as Europe is not
ready to occupy the region between
the Victoria and Khartoum, and he
had much better have it than either
the Mahdi or a great Arab slave
raider.

three murders committed at johann
nesberg, in South Africa, in 1888,
where a white named Graham, q
Kafir, and a Hottentot were all muir
dered, and, as it is asserted, by a per-
son exactly resembling Deemi1g. 1t
further appears that while in prison
at Albany, the prisoner secreted a
medicine bottle. and with q broken
piece of it partly cut off his moustache,
assisting the operation by plucking
out a great deal OF it by the roots.
The ~jailers say that in this way he
effected so marvellous a change in his
appearance, that if they had not
known him to be the same man, they
would hardly have recognised him.
And no doubt Deeming hopes that
this change in his appearance will
render his Identification difficult in
his trial at Melbourne, where he has
Just arrived.

Life's Fitful Fever.

We Of to-day live in a perfect
frenzy of hurry; We can never go
quickly enough; we are forever dis
covering short cuts to reform, i'm
provement and happiness in general,
and straightway plunging headlong
into them, and when one after anOth
er proves to be an impassc, we hastl-
ly turn aside and look for new
one. There is povery in the land
quick we rush to discover a means OF
making all men rich. Somebody or
others offers to do it for us, if we
will give him so many thousands of
pounds and our full confidence.
"Quick, give him the money" is
the cry, and howl of indignation is
raised against those who beg us to
stay sor hand aud reflect. There is
drunkenness, and we clamor TO close
all the public houses. We are far
too impatient to live the life our
selves, and watch the gradual i'm
provement Of our race; we long to
push them from behind, to goad
them on the path of virtue with acts
of parliament.
And the same with our expressions
Of opinion; we rush in the widest
haste to deliver them, to administer
praise or blame. If any man be ac-
cused, he is hoisted into the pillory
and pelted long before he has time
to utter a word of defense; if any
one pleases us, he is hailed as hero,
and loaded with honors and adula
tons even before we know exactly
what it is he has done, the result be-
ing that we are constantly making
ourselves ridiculous a result that
matters the less In that we never
really leave ourselves time to con
template the ludicrous figure that we
cut. In our private life we are no
way better. We have never time to
enjoy to-day, because we are always
living in tomorrow, and when to-
morrow comes it finds all our atten-
ton fixed on the day after. Too
soon we rejoice; too soon we de-
spcnd; and we are forever either on
one extreme or the other. Too sosn
we pour out our complaints in the
newspapers too soon we bring ac-
cusations against our neighbors /;
too soon we try to push ourselves in
to the front ranks, even too soon do
we wish to enjoy the fruits of the
earth. The forced strawberry and
the too early asparagus are typical
OF our hurrying appetite. How
much more comfortable place the
world would be if we were only con-
tent to hurry less and enjoy more

Not SO Terrible.

"A lady who has been travelling
abroad, relates an adventure which
befell her in Italy, in a railway train.
Her husband put her into compart
ment alone, and went to attend to
the luggage. After he had gone, a
Misunderstanding fellow got in, and
presently the train started off, the
husband not appearing. The lady
was naturally good deal disturbed,
and the way in which the stranger
looked at her did not tend to dimin-
ish her agitation. Suddenly, still
with his eyes fixed upon her, he took
from his pocket large clasp-knife
and opened it. Then he rose, and
deliberately cut from the window
blinds their cords and began to knot
them together. The lady was terri
fed almost to death. She expected
to be strangied on the spot, and be-
gan appealing to the stranger to
spare her. He only laughed brutally,
answering her in Italian, of which
she did not understand word.
Then he pulled off his coat and
waistcoat, and just as the terrified
woman was almost prepared to fling
herself out of the compartment of
the swiftly moving train, he knotted
the cords SO as to piece out broken
suspender, put on his coat and waist
coat, and sat quietly down in corn
er, where he went quickly to sleep.
The husband, VINO had by mistake
got into a wrong compartment just
as the train was starting, and who
joined his wife at the next station,
found her on the verge of Mysteries
from the effects of the fright she had
undergone San Francisco Argo-
naut.
