I never leave the wharf until I look my crowd over and find out what I can (I on. If I find it all right we put on steam and work right up to card-time ; if it’s a weak lot we go slow and are behind from the start.” “ Please define the case a little clmrer." “ Well, the right sort of a crowd is about half and half asto sex, and only here and there a child. The wrong sort of a crowd is an overplus of women and children. Let me illustrate : Coming down the river one day a raft ahwl of us swung around across the channel and we struck it, got caught in the elbow. and were lifted square on the lnnk. I had the wrong crowd that day. Woman and children shrickcd and rushed hero and there. and all made a dash for the rt side and came near capsiring the boat. Vhile there was no real danger women were frantic, children terrified, and I myself pulled back several females who were bound to go overboard on the channel side in thirty feet of water. The incident was a mere nothing, yet a score of Women had to lie down after the panic to quiet their nerves. “Within another week we were makinu a landing u the river and the engine ‘ Btuci.’ The resu t was that we went into dock at the rate of twelve miles an hour. We struck the wharf a Ilancin ' blow, picked up a wood scow and who: her, and stop- ped only after my boat had run her how fourteen feet upon the bank of the slip. That time 'I had 200 ~ugcrs, and they were the right sort. I stood where I could see the whole crowd, and while every one knew what was going to happen, not a man or women changed position. Those sitting down gripped their chairs, and those stand- ing up braced for tho shock, and not a hand was bruised. "KEEP COOL." “ It's all in keeping cool," said another ca tain as he sat down for a. chat. “As a ru c, the man with the most istclligcnec and the most to lose by accident is the coolest. I have seen roustabouts who had seemingly nothing to lose snatch life-prescrvcrs or run to the yawls at the first warning of danger, and you will see something of the sort when- ever you meet an accident. [)0 you remem- ber when the Alaska burst her steam drum just as she had of: out of the mouth of the river? “'0”, t no lower deck. stairways, cabins and staterooms were filled with steam in ten seconds, and hot water flew lively for a minute, and yet the only lives lost were those where individuals jumped overboard in a panic. That was a lucky crowd of passengers. Not a man s foutcd and only one woman uttered a scream. When the steam blew away and the boat stopped her whecls nearly every scnger had a life-pre- scrvcr buckled on, mt there was no confus- ion. A panic among the passengers would have sent half of them overboard. “NEVER BOARD A STEAMEI'. with your eyes shut. First locate the stair- ways so that you can readily find them in the dark. Next look to the life-prescrvcrs. Some of them are corded up forward, others piled away under the berths in the state- rooms, and others are stored aft. Locate them so that if an accident occurs you will know just whcrc to go." IN CASE OF FIRE. ” “'hnt should 0. 'isscngcr do in case of fire '.'" repeated nnof. fer captain. “\Vcll, there is only one answer to that. He should wait. “’e read of a great many steamers burning up, but five are saved when: one is burned. A steamer on a. voyage is being watched at every point, and the moment a fire breaks out it is located. The hose hangs in the most convenient )lacc, the water is all around us, and powerful streams can be gut ready in tivcnt seconds. Passengers should wait for rcsu ts, and make no move until certain that the fire is beyond control. Just as long as the passengers keep cool the crew will run any risk and keep up to their work. Lct \vomcn begin to scream and mcn to rush and new perils will instantly be added to the situation. The chances are altogether in favor of mttin ' out the fire. and no man should thin of ( istracting the attention of the crew b shouting orders or advice or ob- structing their pathway. “'l‘lll-Z cusscss." “Sup so one of our rivcr steamers hav- ing on )Olll‘fl 150 passengers. should catch fire in going up or down? There are three chances to one that the fire can be extin- guished in frqu two to five minutes. From five to ten minutes the chances are even. After that she can be run ashore anywhere in the river in about three minutes. Let the passengers sit quiet for the first five minutes, provide themselves with lifc-prcscrvcrs dur- mg the next five minutes,-and even if every soul has to jump overboard in the middle of Lake St. Clair not one need be drowned. A cork life-preservcr made secure under the arms will float is man weighing 200 pounds from lake to lake without his giving a kick. I went ovcrlmanl in Lake Huron with my wife from a burning schooner, and we float- od thirt' hours in a heavy sea before we were pic 'ed up.

Had it been midsummer a score of passcngcrs would have lived until picked up or cast on shore. In this case passengers had no chance left.

The cashier looked up from a roll of hundred dollar notes he was in the act of counting, took a furtivc glance at the apparent tramp and said, “ “'c haven't anything for you to-day." “ \Vcll, that's good,” said the tramp. “So you take me for a beggar, do you? I see. I have remained away too long. “'cll, well ; out of sight, out of mind. You really do not remember me? Come now, take a long look and brush up your dormant faculties,” and the tramp struck another attitude more im- posing than thc list. The cashier inspected the face of the tramp with a searching gaze that would have done credit to a full-bloomed stor '-pnpcr detective, but without recogniz- ing the features. “I never saw you before," said the cash- fer. “Is it possible that you, my old school fol- low, could have bccomc so enamored of the vanities of this world as to cut an old friend simply because his back is not covered with broadcloth and fine linen?

And so I have lived all these years to see a noble nature hurled from its pedestal of purity by the glitter and tinsel of riches. Ah, my friend. it is indeed too true that few peo lc can stand the corroding influences o pros- pcrity." “ if you do not leave at once I shall be obliged to have you removed by force," said the cashier, cntircly losing patience. “ ‘Some arcborn great, some achieve great- ness, and some. have greatness thrust upon tlicfu,‘ ” quoted the tramp. “\Yhen I was a youth I felt that my lot in life was a. high one. 1 felt that I was born to greatness, as our lamented frich \vcll puts it.

Thch lives not a thousand miles from town, says the Charlottcsvillc(V3,). «jihrson- iun, a fascinating young bachelor, who tills his ancestral acres with his own hands. During the recent heated spell I": was en- gagcd in plowing his corn, and the excessive rcd-hottcducss of the temperature constrain- ed him to shed more than the usual am- ount of clothing, in order that he might extract as much comfort as possible from the sky breezes that occasionally flittcd about his uudmpcd cxtrcmitics. While the am- ount o‘feliis drapcry was limited almost to that on snowy garment which the lines of flood have iunnortalizcd, some evil spirit moved a bevy of fair maidens to call upon the industrious bachelor. Finding his man- sion locked, they proceeded to the field. At the turn of a row the unfortunate plowman caught nglimpsc of the fair invadcfs. llis pantdoous were at the other end and terror seized him. “'hnt should he do? Should he meet the maidens at so great a disadvan- tage or should he escape to the friendly shudc of the neighboring thicket? Discre- tion finally gained the mastery, and his two stout and uucncumlmrcd lcgs bore him home with the velocity of the wind. At acou- vcnicnt distance his tormcutors followed, and as they reached a crust ovorlookiug the bachelor‘s hall they saw a figure half draped in a robe of flowing \vhitc disappear through the window of his rustic lmlgc.

The discovery consists in a lh'W method of con- stmction and such an arrangcmcnt of the keel as will diminish the resistancc of the wafer to the lowest mssiblc point. Vessels built in the fashion ill-vised by Prof. Pictct, instead of sinkng thwir pmws in the water as their spur-l increases, will rise out of thc wa- ter the faster they go, in such a way that the only parts (“fluâ€"‘04 to the friction of the ‘afcr will be the sides of the hull and the neighlnrhmnl cf the wheel. In other words, ships thus unistructml, insfcml of pushing their way through the watcr. will glidcovcr it. According to the Professor‘s calculations, in the accuracy of which he has the fullest confidence, steamers built after his design will attain a speed of from 3-0 to 6:) kilome~ tree the hour.

Dun MAD“.â€"-In response to your wish, Ihve much leasure in expreaing the ins tea-est which lfeel in your pbrpfiosed investi- gation on the mental and ily develop ment of infants. Very little is at present accurately know on the subject, and I be- lieve that isolated observation will add but little to our knowledge; whereas tabulated ' malts from a very large number of observa- tions, systematically made, would probably throw much light on the acquence and period of development of the several faculties. This knowledge would probably give a foundation for some improvement in our edu. cation of young children, and would show us whether the same system ought to be follow. ed in all cases. Ilwill venture to specify a few points of in- quiry which, as it seems to me, possess some scientific interest. For instance, does the education of the nts influence the men. tal powers of their children at any age, either at a very mrly or somewhat more ad- vanced age? This could, perhaps, be learn- ed b schoolmastcrs or mistresses, if a large num r of children were first classed according to age and their mental attain- ments, and afterwards in accordance with the education of their parents, as far as this could be discovered. As observation is one of the easiest facul- ties dcvclo d in young children, and as this power wou (1 probably be exercised in an, equal degree by the children of educated and uneducated persons, it seems not impossible that any transmitted effect from education could be displayed only at a somewhat ad- vanced aec. It would be desirable to test statistically in a similar manner the truth of the oft-repeated statement that colored children at first learn as quickly as white children, but that they afterwards fall off in progress If it could be proved that educa- tion acts not only on the individual, but by transmission on the race, this would be a great encouragement to all working on this all-important subject. It is well known that children sometimes exhibit at a vc early age strong special tastes, for whic 1 no cause can be assigned, although occasionallythey may be account- ed for by reversion to the taste or ocwpation of some progenitor; and it would be interest- ing to learn how far such early tastes are persistent and influence the future career of the individual. In some instances such tastes die away without apparently leaving any after effect ; but it would be desirable to know how far this is commonly the case, as we should then know whether it was im- portant to direct, us far as this is possible, the early tastes of our children. It may be more beneficial that a. child should follow energetically some pursuit, of however trif- ling a nature, and thus acquire perseverance, than that he should be turned from it, be- cause of no future advantage tohim. I will mention one other small point of inquiry in relation to very young children, which may possibly prove important with respect to the origin of language ; but it could be investi- gated only by a. person possessing an accur- ate musical car. Children, even before they can articulate, express some of their feelings and desires by noises uttered in different notes. For instance, they make an inter- rogative noise, and others of assent and dis- sent in different tones ; and it would, I think, be worth while to ascertain whether there is any uniformity in different children in the pitch of their voices under various frames of mind. Kux'r, July 19, 1881. CHARLES DARWIN. â€"-â€"-â€"‘aâ€"-<->â€"O.-’ Mennonites in Manitoba. Though the Mennonites possess many vir- tues and make excellent settlers in a new country, they are yet fur from bcing model citizens. Their very virtues are not easily distinguishable from vices. They are as nvaricious and mggardly as French peasant proprietors. They are morbidly suspicious of persons who do not belong to their body, and when dealing with Strangers they drive bargains which are so hard as to verge on sharp practices. To get money is their chief aim in life, and their whole en- joyment consists in laboring for that object. Even the charity of the Mennonites has its dark side. The poorer brethren are assisted by the richer, but the richer take care lest the poorer should be so well paid as to grow independent and make their own terms. Rich Mennonites are thoroughly convinced of the advantage of employing cheap labor. Their astutcncss as a community is some times carried far beyond permissible limits- I was present when the heads of one of their municipalities were taken to task for the following conduct : Incommon with others in the Province, this municipality had re- ceived $100 from the Provincial Government to be applied to drainage. The grant was accepted by the municipality in question, but nothing was done in draining the land. Unless each municipality did its duty, the effect of the work would be impaired. The result of the investigation was to show that tho Mennonite municipality had expended 875 in buyng two drainage ploughs, which were carefully stored away, and had lent the rest of the sum at interest to a member of their own body. ’ " ' Every year the possibility of remaining a class apart is more difficult, owing to the increase of inter- commuuication. The resent generation of Mennonites may practice all the exclusive rules to which they have been accustomed, and their ignorance of English will render it easier for them to resist any external influ- ence which might cause them to modify or alter their views and habits. Their children will assuredly succumb to these influences. They are learning English, and they will ac- quire ideas which must alter their mode of life. Moreover, the Mennonites are making money more rapidly than they ever did bc- forc, and the sons of rich parents may cease to labor with their hands 0:! their forc- fnthcis have done for generations. -â€"..â€"â€"â€"-. .o. <--â€"- “Only a Lodger." ‘Sickncss is a sort of early old age; it teaches us a diflidcncc in our earthly state and inspires us with the thought of a future better than a thousand volumes of philoso- phers and divincs. It give»; so warning a concussion to those props of our vanity, our strength and youth, that we think of forti- fyinv' ourselves within when there is so lit- tle f cpendcncc upon our outworks. Youth, at the very bcst, is but a bctraycr of bunnm life in a gentler and smoother manner than age. When a fit of sickness tells me that this tcnomcnt of my body will fall in a little time, I am as unconscious as was that honest Hibernian, who, being in bed in a great storm, and told the house would tuni- blc over his brad, madc answer: " “'hat cam I for the house ?

Women‘s Play-ground. In general the remark holds good of the female sex, that thme think most who qral' least~as frogs cease cmakin" when a light is faced on the banks of the pond. The ha iit of much talking among women is a re- sult of their sedentary m‘cupations. The little work~fablcs are play-grounds of wo- men's fancies. and their knitting necdlesam fairy wands, by which they transform a mom into an isle of dreams : hence it is that a book distract: a woman in love more than four pair of stockings knit by herself.

The European wife of the Grand Shun-f vaccinated fifty children in one day in Momma. ' attracted by a sound which secmal to him Water Pant Up lnthaBow-els crass Earth Breaking out in Vermont. W W, King David Carter, who lives in the town of Marlboro’ was at work in his hill pasture recently, when his attention was suddenly- 1ike the rumble of thunder. Looking across the valley, he was astonished to behold a furious torrent rushing down the opposite. slope,vwhere no streamhad. tohis know edge, before existed. It dashed onward with a hissing noise, now obstructed by stona and gravel, and then breakin over these barriers and plungin furiously ong till arrested by fresh obstac ee. Mr. Carter said the torrent, with it foaming waves and the huge rocks which it swept along in it course, reminded him of a flock of sheep scampcring down hill. The rumour of this strange Occurrence spread slowly through the neighborhood, and was generally received with incredulity. A visit to the spot, however, revealed to a party of explorers the fact that something rtally remarkable had happened. Upon climbing nearly to the top of .the rather steep hill side to the spot where the torrent burst forth, the party discovered a basin some twenty-five feet in diameter and fivci feet deep in the middle. Here was where the earth first slid away. At the lower end of this basin two or three legs had been in- terlocked and had dammed up the water un- til there had cvjdcntly been a largo accumu- lation. The logs v. ere then swept aside with great violence, and the unfettered tor- rent tore through a bank, making a gully six feet in depth and as many wide, besides a smaller parallel gully. Through this opening the waters made their way head- long down the hill. Some twenty rods be- low was a fence made of saplings, quite sub- stantially put together. This was swept away like so many straws, and the mass of debris was carried down twenty rods or more further. The whole track, as marked by the heaps of gravel and stones, is forty or fifty rods long and twenty feet or more in width. It was estimated that nearly ‘200 cart loads of gravel were thus swept; down, although popular rumor had put it at many more thousands. Through the middle of the dcbrisa small stream now triuklcs, issuing from two or three spots in the basin bcforc mentioned, when: the outburst took place. All the neighbors agree that no stream has before run in that channel. The water is sweet and odorless, yet it is evidently power- fully impregnatcd with iron or other sub- stances, as it deposits in places’ thick, yel- lowish scum. The stones and gravel borne down by the torrent are full of indications of some sort of mineral, but the scientific knowledge of the visiting party was not equal to defining it. The cause of the phenomenon is yet a mystery in the neighborhood. The explor- ing party, however, took note of two facts, which may help to a solution. The first was that at the lower part of the hill were well-defined marks of an ancient water- course. The second was that a. short dis- tance from the spot of the outbreak, and at the same level, was an oozy spot, where the cattle love to tread, from which I’d‘llllell a minute stream. The [probabilities are that a small brook once ran down from the forest which crowns the hill, fed by springs in the interior. From some cause, perhaps the ! cutting down of the trees, the springs became ‘ low and the stream ceased to flow, the im- prisoned waters finding an imperfect outlet , through the boggy spotrcfcrrcdto. Indeed, ! this may have been the original'outlet, and have become choked up. At. last the pres- sure of water became sufficient to break through the strata and dislodge a superin- cumbent mass of stones and gravel. __.____4-.-.â€">.___~.â€"_ Old-Time Travelling in Spain.
