This “high civilization” is curious. Its avowed aim is a nobler manhood and womanhood. But while we are so proud of our telegraphs and railroads and grand inventions and magnificent improvements and large corn crops, that we run our printing presses all night to proclaim our glory to the rising sun, our doctors, standing in the midst of a nation of men sucking tobacco, caution a nation of corseted women to go slow and lie flat on their backs three months every year.

Don’t you see a good many pale girls in your stores, girls with a bloodless, halfbaked sort of face, whose walk, whose voice, whose whole expression is void of spirit and force? Those girls are in the green state, Look at their lips and cheeks ; they are not half ripe. Send them out in the country; let them throw. away their parasols and live out in the sunshine three months, and [| would give more for one of them ia any work requiring spirit than for a dozen of the pale things that live in the shade. The only girls with red cheeks and sweet breaths, the only girls who become fully ripe and sweet, are those who baptize themselves freely in the sunshine.

We put adrop of alcohol into a man’s eye. It poisons it. We try it upon the lining of a lining stomach. Again it poisons it. We study, after death, the stomachs of living men, and find alcohol produces in regular stages redness, in- tense congestion, morbid secretions, deeper hurt, destruction of parts, utter ruin. Westudy its influence upon the health and strength of sailors and soldiers, and find it helps to freeze them in the Arctic regions, and exhaust them in the tropics. We watch two regiments on a long march in India, one with and the other without grog, and are driven to the conclusion that even moderate quantities of alcohol weaken the muscles and break the endurance. We visit the training grounds of oarsmen, pedestrians, and prize-fighters, aud learn everywhere the same lesson—alcohol is a poison to muscle ard brain.

Private news from the village of Montagudo, in the province of Soria, 100 miles north of Madrid, states that in eight days there have 210 deaths from cholera and 300 remain ill, out of a population of 800 persons. The greatest consternation has been caused by this extraordinary death rate, which is more severe than in any previous case during the present epidemic. Even the highest village officials are forced to bury their

Sherman’s Estimate of Grant.

The following are extracts from the reply of Sherman (then a major-general in rauk), written “ near Memphis” on March 10, 1864, upon the receipt of news from Grant that the latter had been nominated by the President to the rauk of lieutenant-general :-—

You are now Washington’s legitimate successor and occupy a position of almost dangerous elevation; but if you can con- tinue, as heretofore, to be yourseif—simple, honest and unpretending—you will enj>y through life the respect and love of friends, and the homage of millions of human beings who will award to you a large ehare for securing to them and their descendants a government of law and stability.

I believe you are as brave, patriotic #nd just as the great prototype Washington; as unselfish, kind hearted and honest as a man should be; but the chief characteristic in your nature is the simple faith in success you have always manifested, which I can liken to nothing else than the faith a Chris- tian has ia his Savior.

This faith gave you victory at Shiloh and Vicksburg. Also, when you have com- pleted your best preparations, you go into battle without hesitation, as at Chattanooga —no doubts, no reserve; and I tell you that

iit was this that made us act with con-

fidence. 1 know, wherever I was, that you

thought of me, and if I got into a tight

place you would come—if alive. a + ae 6 Re Naval Manceuvres.

The splendid performance of the steam ram Polyphemes during the recent naval manceuvres in Bantry Bay, have iaduced the Admiralty to order the construction of several new vessels of the same general design. The demonstrated fit- ness of this class of war vessel for har- bor defence or attack is a proof of the wisdom of a recommendation made during the war of the rebellion by the late President Lincoln. At that time he wrote :—

**T havea single idea of my own about harbor defence. It is asteam ram, built so as to sacrifice nearly all capacity for carry- ing to those of speed and strength, so as to be able to split any vessel, having hollow enough in her to carry supplies for a voyage of any distance. Such a ram, of course, could not herself carry supplies for a voy- age of considerable distance, and her busi- ness would be to guard a particular harbor as a bulldog guards his master’s door.”’ The strong practical common sense of the ex-president now fizds endorsation among the best naval engineers of the time, though the American Secretaries of war and the navy did not then agree with him, and hence his views were not carried out into effect.

Enoch Arden Again.

An Enoch Arden case is reported at Oitawa. About 18 years ago a married man left that city for California, leaving a wife and two small children behind. After his departure his wife never heard from him, and having mourned for him as dead for some years she was prevailed upon to take a second husband. The first husband meantime had never settl- ed in California at all, but had located in British Columbia, where he had amassed a fortune. On his return he found his wife comfortably remated, and not only does he not blame her, but is quite willing to let his successor continue undisturbed in peaceful enjoyment of his home. One drawback exists, however, he is most anxious that his son and daughter, whom he left babies, should cast in their lot withhim. The son,who is earning bis owa living, is not at all tempted by his father’s wealth, and de- clipes ; the daughter also prefers to stay wih her mother. The discussion at- tendicg this matter has for the present spoiled the peacefulness of the home life, por does there appear any immediate likelihood of a settlement beiog arranged.

A Disastrous Cloud-Burst.

A despatch from Colorado Springs, Col., of the 26th July, says: One of the most disastrous clond-bursts ever known in this section of the State struck a oint afew miles north of this city at twelve o'clock last night, Several rail- road and wagon bridges in the vicinity were carried away, and a_ large amount of track swept off. The house *of Mr. Eaion, Superintendent of schools, was lifted from its foundation and carried down the stream with great velocity. Mr. Eaton escaped, but bis wife clung to the house which struck a railroad bridge one hundred yards below, and was dashed to pieces. In one slope of Shook’s run were a number of summer campers. Many of their tents have been seen floating in the stream and as the flood came down in the dead of night it is feared that many of tiem have per- ished.
