A wan named Henry Jenkins was suffo-
cated to desth in St. Johnon the 11th inst.,
by a tumor in his throat, while seeking ad-
mission tothe City Hospital. In the post
mortem examination Dr. Allison stated he
found Jenkins’ lungs and the veins in the
upper part of the neck considerably con-
gested. On examining the wind pipe he
found vascular tumor at the top of it, ob-
structing the orifice by which the air passes
tothe lungs. The other appearences of the
body were healthy. The tumor was situat-
ed where it would cause death, whenever a
rush of blood to the tumor would distend it
so far aa to obstruct the wind pipe. That
was the cause of Jenkins’ death. [The up
per portion of the deceased’s wind pipe was
produced and inspected. The tumor in its
normal state was almost large enough to
atop up the air passage, and when swelled
up by blood would no doubt stop up the
wind pipe like a cork in a bottle. |

_ Tue weather on the Atlantic ocean dur-
ing the month of January, according to the
Hydographic Office, Washington, was
generally stormy north of latitude 30 deg.
Eight well defined cyclonic disturbances
passed off the North American coast on to
the North Atlantic and were felt on the
transatlantic steamer routes as strong gales
from south-west to north-west. For
February, according to the last north
Atlantic chart, the storm area extends over
the north Atlantic and south to a line from
Cape Finisterre to the Azores and Bermu-
da. Within these limita a gale may be ex-
pected on an average of once in eight
days. inthe steamer routes the greater
bumber of gales will blow between south-
west and north-west. Northers may be ex-
pected in the western part of the Gulf of
Mexico. Icebergs aud field ice may be en-
countered south and east of the banks of
Newfoundland to latitude 42 deg. north
and longitude 42 deg. west.

Tue Herald strives to make its readers
believe that Tue Examiner is as deep in
the mud as the Herald is in the mire.
Granted that we appropriated Dr. Cotte’s
pen and ink eketch of El Mahdi without
credit, that is not a valid excuse for its
appropriation (as its own) of matter ob-
tained and prepared by ‘Tne EXaMINnEr’s
reporter. But the Ilerald’s readers will be
surprised to learn that Tue EXAMINER gave
Dr. Cotte full credit in small capital letters
for his sketch of El Mahdi, and thus showed
distinctly that it was not the work of any-
one on THe Examiner staff. Had the
Herald indicated in the same way, or in any
way, that the report of Mr. Fraser's state-
meut was the work representative of
Tue EXAMINER, and not of one of its own

We may be as good as we please it we
please to be good, or as bad as we like if
we like to be bad.

The most important lesson of morality is
this: Never do any injury to any one,
particularly to number one.

Idleness is the most corrupting fly that
can grow on the human mind. Men learn
to do ill by deing what is next to it—no-
thing.

Hard words are lik» hailstones in sum-
mer, beating down and destroying what
they would nourish were they melted into

drops.

The best advertisement of a workshop is
first-class work. The strongest attraction
to Christianity is a well made Christain |
character.

An old man repents of that of which a
young man boasts, but it isa question if he
were ‘* young again” he would not have to
repent again.

Religion can be no more learnt out oi
books than seamanship, or soldiership, or
engineering, or painting, or any practical
trade whatsoever.

Men too often judge the person rather
than the cause, which is not justice, but
malice; and forget that such eggs hatch
chickens that ‘‘come home to roost,”

The charities that soothe and warm and
bless, lio scattered at the feet of men like
flowers, whose perfume makes a paradise of
earth, and sheds fragrance over earth’s
afflictions,

To divert at any time a troublesome fancy,
run to thy books. They presently fix thee
to drive them, and drive the other out of
thy thoughts. They always receive thee
with the same kindness.

Converts who boast of their stability are
not always the most stable. Water con-
verted to ice may possess the hnes of the
rainbow and sparkle with glory, but it only
endures till it resolves again into water.

What is called ill-natare and want of
generosity, is very often nothing more than
a quick eye for the injustice and unreason-
ableness of others, and a determination not
to gratify it; not the desire to save one’s
own money or irouble.

Among the Egyptians the cat was held
sacred to Isis, or the moon, and worshipped
with great ceremony. In the mythology of
all the Indo-Europeans nations the cat
holds a prominent place, aud its connection
with witches is well known.

Ata meeting of the Academy of Sciences,
Stockholm, Prof. Lundstram exhibited a
fossi! scorpion recently found near Wisby,
in the Silurian formation of Gotland, and
remarkable as the most ancient of au air-
breathing animal at present discovered.

The floating gardens at Kashmere, in
Eastern Asia, seem to be one of the won-
ders cf the world. They cover an expanse
of water about nine miles in circumference,
and on a sub-soil of grasses and aquatic
playts they grow melons and cucumbers,
and a crop raised of great value.

Although jute has now assumed import-
ance asan article of commerce, the first
attempts to utilize its fibre were not made
in Europe until 1884-5, and it was only
when the Crimean war deprived England
of Russian flax and hemp that jute fibre
became highiy valued. The centre of the

trade in Great Britain is Dundee. Of
late years Germany has gone largely
into it.

Forty years ago, aman in Emanuel Co.
Ga., sold his wife for a jug of whiskey.
Several days later he was presented with
the wife of a man who had grown tired of

her. The woman first mentioned was after-
wardtraded for a bushel of corn. All
hands then settled down in the same

neighborhood, and have lived there ever
since. ‘Their descendants are among the
most respected people of that county.

Some of the researches lately made by
English explorers in regard to deep sea
beds have ted to the belief that there are
no rough ridges, abrupt chasms, nor bare
rocks, and that the sea bottom at great
depths is not affected by currents or
streams—even those of the magnitude of
the Gulf Stream—its general appearance
rather resembling that of the American
prairies, and it is everywhere covered by a
kind of mud.

Electric towers are now being found fault
with by vessel captains who complain that
the reflection of the lights is so great on the
river that they ave blinded by it and can-
not see the lights of vessels moving about
the harbor. This, too, is especially so on
hazy nights. Some captains say they have
barely escaped collisions by not being able
to discover the lights on passing vessels.
Other captains claim that the electrics
troubled them in discerning the lighthouses
in the mouth of the river,

It is said that the latest wrinkle in Spain
is to have women buil-fighters, instead of
men. It must bea noble sight to see one
of those dark-eyed females in the ring
facing a mad bull, but how different would
be the scene if one of our American girls
should attempt it. The sight would bring
tears to eyes that never wept before. If
any one has ever seen an American girl
climb a rail fence at sight of a cow
in an adjoining field they can form
some idea of what she would do
if brought face to face with a mad bull.
No wall would be too high for her to
climb, and you can gamble on it that she
wouldn’t let avy grass grow under her feet
while getting into the next county. Of
course, there are some girls, like Lulu
Hurst, for instance, who would take a
bull by the tail and toss him over the
fence, but the majority of them would
want to go home to their ma.— Peck’s Sun
