The Sanc-HBiils.

‘Come and roll down the sand-hills,” said by cousin. J felt bewildered, and re- marked that I had some respect for my clothes. ‘‘Our white sand won't hurt your clothes,” was the reply ; and away went the fay of eight breezy summers, laughing to the top of a forty feet sand-dune. Gather- ing her habiliments tight about her, and throwing herself on the steep white faca that plunged toward the sea, down she went, sunny tresses and tiny feet making the maddest little whirlwind in creatioa. I looked to see that she had not rolled into the sea, where they said the sharks were. But no, there wes my merry companion shaking the shining sand from her unsoiled dress and Jaughing like the sea waves. That was years ago, When

“Life went a-maying

With Nature, Hope, and Fancy, | When I was young !” i

But I never forgot the lesson about the |

stainless purity of these dunes of washed silicious sand, that make such rolling sea- walks along every low stretch of coast on the north side of our Island. It is the foaming rollers wash them.

‘ ‘Break, break, break, At the foot of thy crags, O Sea.”

But the steady swell that bursts in one

® | unbroken snowy roll of miles in length,

“makes deeper, grander thunder along the front of the sand-hills. How the rollers do With every plunge they dash them up with their own crystal spray, then they suck them into the depths, ‘and rush them out again, in splashing quartzy foam. When a great storm rages on ‘the shore, their terrific charge hurls the ' sands right over the tops of the dunen. By this ceaseless washing all the red coloring matter is separated from the sand, ‘and the partieles of quartz are left white ‘and pure. lron—red oxide ef iron—is ‘the coloring matter that paints our crags ‘and stains our soils, and spreads sunset tints everywhere throughout our Island jor- ‘mation. This, and the clay, and the fine ‘particles of mica and hornblends ere all | washed out of the sands by the sea surf. After a blow we see it staining the waters ‘ved far out.from the shore. It will there ‘settle down to form deposits of fine red | mud.

In the upper Carboniferous rocks are many beds of grey and reddish-grey sand- stones, alternating with bright red shales.

breakers told it us in their own wild tones.

which formed the sandstones, and gave it jin extra abundance to that which formed the shales. They were the artists of nature painting with varied tints the barred ribs of the everlasting hills.

New London sand-dunes, while far from forming the longest range on the Island, are among the loftiest—attaining a height of forty feet. When the sheen of midday sun flashes on the Gulf and all its foaming coast-line sounds like a mighty vibrating chord in nature’s harp of praise, the sand- hills, veiled in the thin sea-mist, gleam a long, white, ghastly ridge,—appropriate

sea-wall to New London Bay. On the one side are the silvery waters of the sheltered basin, on .the other the angry, booming gulf. At sunset the sands are a gilded highway amid the waters, apparently link- ing the Bay View shore to the mist-shrouded front of distant Tryon.

The sand-hills have a vegetation of their own. The wiry, slippery sand-grass,psamma arenaria, binds the sands together with it creeping roots, and the sand-pea, pisum maritimum, in endless profusion, waves its purple banners aloft onthe dunes. They shelter numbers of peaceful glossy ponds, that with one border lave the green skirts of the meadows, and in the other reflect the towering storm-piled forms of the dunes. Fields of purple irises spread their bright beauty round these miniature lakes and jungles of reeds filled with uncommon plants.

These ponds are the home of wild fowl taking refuge from the storm-beaten outer coast. The mallard here first leads out her duckling brood on the silver surface, and the golden-eye hides its nest in the reedy borders. The gulls bring in their young from the stormy wave, and the pewit and the kerlew rejoice forever in this rich feeding ground. The blue heron at stilly eve stands in shallow tide and repletes his pouch for his young, and the nightly bittern utters his booming cry in mimicry of the deep sounding sea.

The level beach of sand in front of the dunes is the arena of the wildest elemental warfare. We go out on it for the sake of being lost in the roar of waters, and to feel the salt spray dashed into our face, and to brace ourselves against the wild buffeting of the wind, and to watch the crystal floods chase each other far up the smooth grey sand-floor. There is very little life to be seen here, amid the drifting sea-sand and the foam. A few solid shells of mactra and the massive quahog, some dead litorinc:, and the large purple mussel, mytilus modiolus, with a fragment of snowy petricola, washed from its rocky lair in the reefs, are all that we find—a strong contrast to the rich fauna of our southern coasts.

We wander by the breaking waves till evening tinges the west, and lotty Tryon is lost

“In the glory of the sunset, — In the purgle mists of ever.

,

The setting sun sinks right into the blaz- ing wave. We depress our eyes towards the water, where the mist is densest, and the intensity of the crimson and purple and golden light fills heaven and earth with ‘such a quivering flame of glory as we tay not see elsewhere. B.

Archbishop Croke’s Spsech.

The full report cf two speeches made ty Arehbishop Croke on his return to Ireland from Rome whither he had been svum- moned by the Pope for a conference upon Irish pelitical affairs falsifies the aeseriion that the Archbishop openly declared sub- mission to the alleged terms of the pspal circular, The Archbishop, in reply to an addres: of welcome, said he had in bis lifetime travelled in a good many lands and found more comfort and more freedom in what were called savage countries than in- Ireland. As regards the papal circular he did nut care tospeak of it all. That was a matter which concerned the clergy alto-

‘gether. It had been addressed to the bishops

and priest and in doing so he was sure that the Pope meant extremely well. His Holi- ness’ feelings towards Ireland were of the best character. He loved Ireland and loved it well, and indeed, he the Archbishop of Cashel, had no doubt everything would turn out for the best. Let them show every re- speet to the holy father, never say a word against him, they did not know the difficul- ties of his position,surrounded asche was by various influences—but they might be per- fectly certain there was no man. loves Ireland as His Holiness loved it. The day he hoped would come when they would appreciate his efforts, and when His Holi- ness would recognize that Ireland was"nét only a land of saints, but a land of patriots also.

WHAT IS THE PROPER COLOR FOR SUMMER CLOTHING ?—THE OPINION OF CAPTAIN MAY¥NE REID.

Captain Mayne Reid writes to the Lond- on Daily News:—In a recent article, tle writer, after stating that a certain lecturcr had declared white to be the best color for clothing, and adding that Dr. Richardson has recommended grey on identical grounds, goes On to say for himself, ‘‘Men will con- tinue to wear black—the coldest color in the winter and the hottest in summer.” Now, the belief in black being the

WARMEST COLOR FOR CLOTHING.

and whitethe coolest, has, ap toa late period, passed as an undisputed fact, which if 1 mistake not, 1 was myself the firat to challenge and pronounce erroneous—one of those lurking errors that from earliest times have escaped detection of science. 1 did so in the Live Stock Journal, of date Jan- uary 24, 1879; and as, in a hygienic point of view, the subject is one of no alight importance, perhaps you will allow me to

We never saw an explanation of this ar- | rangement given; but here the bursting|},)eaching of certain birds and quadrupeds, 7 °8./ with reference also to queries thereon by They separated the color from the material) the Banfishire naturalist, Edwarde; My re- j marks were as follows: ‘‘Why do poplar jhares and foxes, that are slate-blue in

Nature effects the cause; but object and for what purpose? The’ usual mode of accounting for it, when speaking of the hare, is that this defenceless creature by becoming white is assimilated to the color of the snow, and so escapes the danger of being sighted by predatory animals, But the fox also assumes a white dress precisely at the same period of time; and as he is one of those predatory animals, his altered hne enables him the more easily to approach

design of the transformation, we should have nature making a fool of herself, which nature never does, yng L am ac- quainted with the usuvl test of color tem perature; the two pieces of cloth, white and black, spread upon snow. When this pro- verbial problem comes to be mere thor- oughly investigated, it will go the way of the flat earth and spherical bullet. * *

% While campaigning in a tropical country,

runder the hottest of suns, | became aware that

A BLACK COAT WAS COOLER than a white one, both being the same weight, texture, and thickness—in short, coeteris paribus, save the color. The fact led me to reflection, to correlation of other

facts and circumstances observed at the sane time, as on other’ occasions. For one, 1 could see that my negro servant

alongside me, enveloped in a coal-black skin, did not suffer from the fervid rays

of the sun half 80 much as { under my tripe-colored epidermis. What could this be but a provision of nature—merciful nature, made for him

whose home was to be in the torrid zone ! And the longer I remained within its limits the more conid I acknowledge her kind- ness in tanning my cheeks and so making them less sensitive to the scorching of the sun. From the coat upon my back and the color of my skin thought wandered to the black begrs of tropical countries—always coal black—to the brown species of temper- ate climes. and on to the Arctic ice, where Urea is robed in white. Then, there is night and day, shadow and eunlight, the dark, naked ground, and the same covered with snow—all in their opposed temper- atures in conformity with my belief as above.” Some ten months later the Lancet, poesibly inspired by what I had said in the Live Stock Journal, thus made allusion to the same subject: ‘‘We have more than once asked attention for the undoubted effect of color on the radiating power of clothing. Certainly light-colored sub- stances approaching to white do not part with their heat so readily as dark.

provided with white fur, while her brothe of warmer climates has a dark-cdlored integument. It therefore seems desirable to prefer bright to sombre hues, and if this choice were’ made the result would be an air of additional cheerfulness in the public streets. The matter may seem of small moment, but the life we live is made up of small considerations and little affairs.” Now this matter may not be of such small

moment, but one having serious con-

sequences in @ sanitary sense, and s0 deserving further investigation.
