The following is a similar statement for the last six months of 1880 and 1881:
house, he had | to life and property, such, in fact, as few |
years have equalled. VIOLENT HURRICANES and cyclones have raged both on sea and land, especially ou the British coast, even since the terrific gales and heavy snow storms of the middle of January, during which many lives were lost. This was fol- lowed on March 7 by a destructive storm which swept over the coast of Aberdeeti shire, wrecking nine vessels and taking one hendred lives. The most deadly storm of the year came in October, during whose course eighty five
down, many with all on board. Another
i storm nearly equally viclent and destruc-
tive passed over the same coasts dur- ing the middle of December. France and the Atlantic, including the eastern coasts of Canada, have not escaped the last storm, causing the loss of the *‘ Bath City” with part of her crew. In China also, a Novem- ber typhoon dest-oyed 2,000 houses, and a storm in the same month took 110 lives in the Mediterranean. On our own lakes and in the United States the effects of these hurricanes have been equally feit. Mis- souri, Lowa, Kansas, and Minnesota were ravaged by them, many lives being lost. In the last State the town ef New Ulm was swept by a cyclone on July 16, thirty per- sons being killed and 100 houses wrecked. On August 27 the same thing eccurred on the coasts of Georgia and South Carolina. AVALANCHES AND LANDSLIPS have been equall; fatal. A snow slide in the Wabsatch Mountains killed eleven men on Jan. 16. An avalanche in February destroyed the Savey village of Brevieres, killing fifteen persens, while a landalip in September killed 240 people and over- whelined thirty houses at Elm, Switzer- land. EARTHQUAKES in divers places have destroyed life and swallowed up villages. On March 5 half of Casamiccioloe, on the Island of Ischia, in the Mediterranean, disappeared. On April 3 one of tle most fatsi ever known devastated the Island of Scio, in the Gre- ‘ian Arehipelago, destroying 45 villages, villing 7,000 persons, injuring 10.000, and rendering 40,000 homelesa. Six months afterwards Chapgeri, in Asiatic Turkey, was similarly visited, eleven persons being killed, FIRES
have been unusually fatal. In a New York tenement house on Jannary 4, ten women and chijdren were burned to death ; thirteen in a New Hampshire poor house on the 7th; fifteen orphans on February 7 in a Roman Catholic Asylum at Scran- ton, Pa ; 100 persons in the Tialian Opera House, Nice, on March 23 ; eleven persons on October 12 in a Philadelphia factory ; and possibly 700 in the Ring Theatre, Vienna, on the 8th of December. =The Quehee fire in June destroyed 800 houses, entailing a loss of $1,500,000. In the same month a Swiss village in Valais of 300 houses was utterly desiroyed. In Canada ws have seen besides the well-nigh des- truction of Woudstock, N. B., the dis-
astrous fires at Woodbridge, Barrie, and elsewhere.

Good-Natured | Men.
Tue Halifax Chronicle says that, ‘since its organization, through the energy of its executive, results have been achieved and concessions gained from railways, stage lines, etc., etc., by the Maritime Commer- cisl Travellers’ Assuciation, fully demon- strating the wisdom of its furmation. It is abundantly evident that the Maritime Com- mereis! Travellers’ Association did not commence its career of usefulness one day too soon, and that the business of our wholesale houses would have gained mater- ially had it Seen established some years azo. Some one has said that it takes a certain amount of heat to make a bullfrog croak, and it can scarcely be denied that there is a good deal of the bullfrog nature about Halifax merchants. But when they once get waked up they usually croak to some purpose. The merchants of the Upper Provinces have been alive to the vaiue of concerted action, and, through the Commercial Travellers Association of Mon- treal and Toronto, have not only largely controlled the trade of the West, but have been strong competitors and aggressive rivals for the trade of the Maritime Pro- vinces. To meet this rivalry and competi- tion, and to give the fullest play to Mari- time energy and pluck, to combine and systemize common interests of the highest commercial value and importance, the M.

But millions of dollars are atolen every year without the knowledge of these prominent directors, who probably think it their main duty az gentlemen not
The Centenary Magasine eays:—‘‘ It is not so wonderful, after all, that popular elections put this sort of good-uatured men into responsible places. The marvel is that men of business training do the same thing in commercial affairs. They generally select the good fellow for a bank cashier, forexample. Heis agood man to meet the public, he will bring business to the bank. But they do not refiect on the amount of distress it will give their good natured cashier to say bo, when some tot tering business house or some speculating adveuturer seeks an ‘‘accommodation.” Ts accommodate is what the good-natured man likes to do—it is ernel to ask him to refuse the people wha beat like waves against the walls of a moneyed institution. Sooner or later the obliging cashier grows tired of the everlasting no, and the un- stable borrowers ‘effect an entrance,” as the reporters say of burglars. When the bank fails everybody is astonished—“the cashier was always the best fellow in the work.” They do not refiect that his yood fellowship was actually his disyualification. Directors in financial corporations, such as
WasHINeTon advices state that the esti- mates of the cost of the United States Government for the fiscai year ending June 30th, sums up a total of $340,462,507, | an increase of $42,259,785 over the expen- | to give offence to the executive ofticers ef diture of the current year. There is an | their institutions by overmuch watchful tucrease of expenditure estimated for| ness. It is notorious that the bank and every branch of the public service, exeept- | insurance examiners of the State often find ing the Treasury and Post Office depart-|loans cf the most improper kind on the men's. In the former of these a saving of books of life-insurance cempanies and $14,470,000 will be effected by the reduc- |savings- banks. The directors would not tion of principal, and the reduction of | stoop to examine too closely into the ad- interest upon the public debt, while the| ministration of the institution to the sup- Post Office department has been enabled to port of whose credit they have freely lent cut down the expenditure $1,900,000 by | their names.

The worst | M feature in the estimates is the enormous| increase in the Interior department expen. diture, which is placed at $112,665,042 in | 1832 3, against $60,186,787 in the current | year This increase has been caused by the Arcears of Pensions Act, an Act which seens destined to cost the country an | enormons sum of money, and to nalhfy all the advantages which otherwise might | gecrue th the people throvigh the reduction | in the pablie debt.

The bush fires of September swept East Michigan and caused tho loss of 309 lives, several villages, and much pro- property in thar State; the. same cause operating equally disastrously in Canada, especially in Muskoka.
DEADLY EXPLOSIONS
have been common. In the United States five men perished in March in an Evanston (Wyoming) mine, and eleven, in Septem- ber, through a powder explosion at Mar- quette, Michigan. Seventeen men were lost in a Staffordshire (England) colliery, in February; many were killed by powder at Maaaltan, Merico, in Angust, and about forty in an Italian sulphur mine in Novem- ber. The British war steamer ‘' Doterel” was blown up in the Strait of Magellan, April 26, 143 men perishing, and a naph- tha explosion on the ‘‘ Solway,” at Glas- gow, the 16th of November,desiroyed eleven lives. MURDERS AND ASSASSINATIONS have been all to common. Those of the Emperor of Russia and President Garfield exeited the most horror and pity. While the Lefroy business and the slaying of Lieutenant Roper in the barracks at Chat. ham, Engiand, with others at home and in the States, have caused us to sup our fill of horrors, OTHER ACCIDENTS,
so called, have ruled heavily. Among these have been the upsetting of a ferry boat, with the drowning of tweive persons, at Elgin, Lil, the coilapse of the excursion steamer ‘* Victoria,” near London, Ont, May 24, 200 people being drowned or suffo- cated; the wreck of the ‘‘Jennie Gilchrist” and the loss of a dozen lives on the Missis- sippi, at Rock Island, October ’27; a casual. ty like that of Elvin, on the Dniester River, aixty-three persons beng drowned; and the fall of several tiers of seats at a Marseilles bull fight, killing twenty-seven people, and wounding 306. There has been only one uausually serous railroad accident—that one being the plunge of a Mexican railroad train with a slender bridge into a frightful chasm, June 24, when 200 persons, mostly soldiers, were killed. But the collision at Charenton, France, September 5, which killed nineteen people, was bad enough, as was that the other day in the tunnel ef the North London Railway at Canonbury. 2 Lee Conviction,
