I says, ‘you don’t know the name of a bank on which all that money is drawn?’ “No. You see, all my papers wore in the wallet. We might easily go to the bank and stop payment on the drafts if I knew the namoe of the bank, but I can't for the life of me recall it.

D, 79, The people of Herculaneum and Pompeii, near its base, thought it extinet until it proved in an extremely therough manner that it could be roused into activity. Since then its comparctive quietude has deceived no one, The first eruption of Hecla, in Iceland, is 'nl to have vceurred A, D. 1004, Iy 1783, just a century ago, there occurred to this volcano the most tremendous It wis accompaniod by violent wind and ruin and & darkness of the heavens, and it was feared that tl island would full to picecs, Three fix | spouts broke of Mount Skapta, which, af tor rising to a considerable height in the air, forned a torrent of red-fot Liva that flowed for six weeks, and rau o distance of sixty miles to thesea ina broken breadth of nearly twelve miles; twelve vivers wero dried up; twenty-one villages were totally overwhelmed by fire and water; (]nl() four others were materiaily injured. The depth of this river of lave was 1,000 feet, and its greatest width fif- teen milos, In Mexico a plain was filled up into a | Sept. 18, | Puta ~TE CHEA I8 They always have the NO STAIRS TO CLIMB mountain more thana ”qull\lul {u-t in heigth by the burning lava form a vole noinl A voleano in the isle of Ferro broke out , 1777, which threw out an im- menso quantity of red water, which dis- colored the sea for several leagues. The voleano of Cotopaxi, one of the lof- tiest of the active voleanoes of the Andes, 18,887 fect above the lovel of the sea, has cast rocks a distance of miles, as was late- ly the case in Java, The flames have been known to rise from Cotopaxi to a distance of 8,000 feet, while the roaring of an eruption has been heard ata dis- tanco of 200 leagues. The great cruption of Tomboro in South America destroyed 12,000 lives and ejected enough ashes and cinders to cover tho entire surface of Germany two deep, besides casting a rock 3,000 cubic feet in dimensions a distance of nine miles, Voleanic ashes have been carried 700 miles. In 1772, a great pact of the Papanda- yang, a mountain in Java, was swallowed up. The area sunk with all its inhabit- ants was fifteen miles long and six broad. The Upas valloy, also in the island of Java, contains an extinct crater; and the certain death which overtakes every ani- mal that penetratos the valley is due to noxious gases, not to the antiaris, which, though yielding a dendly poison, does not affoct tho atmosphere: Voleanic mountains spring up arouud openings formed by accumalations of su consive eruptions. ~ Tho great ages of vol- canoes like Mauna Loa, in the Sandwich islands, and .Ftna, in Sicily, which are respectively 14,000 and 11,000 feot high, can_be readiiy seen from this fact.

Wall Streot Nows, A wholesalo merchant of this city, who has just returned from the west, admits that he had never given that country proper credit for its enterprise. As he passed through detroit he was sought out and offered a 860 coffin for $28, with deed of a burial lot thrown in, In Chi- cago a man offered to killhim for 3 cents, and an ice wagon went & square out of its way to run over him. In Milwaukee he was coaxed to accept for nothing a half-interest in o fire cscape bringing in $76,000 a year. In Indianapolis he found one of his old employes, who admitted an embezzlement as far back as 1859, and forced him to take a check for principal and interest, He stili has the check to prove it. At Mackinaw they took him for a lord (rates $8 per day), and at Cleve- | land he was taken for a bunko man and | had to identify himself by telograph, Had he been of an agricultural turn of mind he could have bought six hund, acres of land of a Toledo man for trifle of §500.
