A TRF.~lL-.n~iu:•l wave has caused immense destruction on the coasf of China. It is stated that a town with nil its inhabitants-three thousand in number-were swept , away. 'l'HE New York Sun says the country expects nothing from a House of Representath·e8 that chose Keifer for Its pre~lding ofilcL'T and Secor Robe@ On for its leader.

They came from Japan, and were bound_for Millan, ltnly. THE girls at fancy fairs who'·w:mt $5 dollars for a ten cent article are always the ones who never made a cent of money for themselves and have no idea of its value. They are just the ones, too, that no man not a mitJ.ionaire ought to murry. • IT is getting to be understood muong public men that when a man accepts a foreign mission be snuff;; ·himself out. It was so with Minister l'~ashbnrne and with ~Iinister ~oyes, to mention no others. Mr. Blaine does DOt :LCc~pt the English mission.

The cause .of tho action of the Goverument was the publiC<ltion of a cartoon which unplensantly twitted on facts. IT is universally ngreed that the eountrv neeLls a more efficient and a l•rger ~navy. But considering how much money has been spent by the Naval Department and how little the country has to show for it all, it st:wcls Congress in hand to go slo\V in the Jrultter of appropriations. TnE arrenrs for pensions under the existing laws amounted to $235,000,- 000, or about $±7 for every person in the United States, or some $240 for every voter. This shows how the public money is squandered by men who woulu let the soldier starve if they had no votes to gire. Tlffi Chinese are eminently practical and hare a ueep knowledge of human nature. The paternal government in their country is 11ot foolish enough to make vaccination compulsory, but offers a premium of about ten cents for every chilu duly inoculated. Curiously enongh, parents prefer to have the operation performed on the noses of their offspring rather than upon either arm or leg.
