Oldest House in America.

The oldest house in America is In
st. Augustine, Fla. 1t was built in
1864 by the monks of the order Of St.
Francis and the whole of the solid
structure is composed Of coquina, a
combination of sea shells and mortar,
which is almost indestructible. When
Francis Drake sacked and burned the
town this was the only house left in the
trail of destruction. 1t has been pur-
chased by the well-known antiquarian,
j. w. Henderson, who will make it his
winter residence.

A Mighty River.

The Amazon, in South America, Is the
largest river on the face of the globe,
and-according to Professor Agassiz-
is 100 miles in width at it's mouth. The
distance from the source Of the ANA
ION in the Andes to the Atlantic Ocean
is 1000 miles i'll a direct line, but by
the course of the river nearly 1000
miles. The Amazon drains an area Of
100000 square miles Gen times the
area of FranceL and in connection with
the river and it's tributaries, there are
said to be $4,000 miles of navigable
waters, one-half Of which is suitable
for steam navigation by large vessels.
The number. length, and volume of the
Amazon's tributaries are in proportion
to its magnitude. More than twenty
superb rivers, 1000 miles and upwards
in length, pour their waters into it, and
streams of less Importance are number
less. At the junction of the Yucayli
with the Amazon, a line of fifty faith
oms does not reach the bottom, and in
breadth it is more like a sea than q
river. The longest tributary, the Ma
deira, has a length of 1000 miles.
