"That big brown house?" the other returned. "Yes." "You mean the one with the porch running clear around it?" "Yes do you know who lives there?" "The third one from the end of the row." "That's it." "I mean the third from the westerly end of the row." "Yes, that's the one I mean." "That one with the green awnings?" "Yes." "Let's see! Blar&ed if I know who lives there."

Europe will soon have an overland express, which, while not traveling quite as long a distance as some trains in America, will nevertheless cover quite a good stretch of road* The Southern express, which runs twice a week between Paris and Madrid, and, upon two other days, from Paris to Lisbon, will be made a dally train and, running through Madrid, will continue on to Gibraltar. The distance from Berlin to Gibraltar, a little over 2,000 miles, will then be covered, in seventy hours. It is now proposed to connect the so-called Northern express, which travels between Paris and St. Peters burg, with the Southern train, so that there will be an uninterrupted over land line from Gibraltar to St. Peters burg, a distance of more than 3,000 miles, which it is proposed to cover in less than four days.

After the battle of Cawnpore he had pur chased at auction a very smart helmet, which had been the property of Lieut. Salmond of the Gwallor cavalry, who had been killed at Cawnpore. This helmet a good deal excited my envy and admiration,'as I bad not possessed a deccnt head-dress since the muting began. I had asked a friend to buy it for me at the auction of Salniond's effects. But poor Younghusband out bid him. At his sale 1 was again out bid, and the helmet fell to the nod of Lieut. Havelock, a nephew of the gen eral. He. too, was killed while wear ing it, and rumor subsequently said a fourth officer had bought it and had been killed. It was a strange coinci dence, and as these deaths occurred quickly one after the other, I ceased to wish I had been its possessor.—(Jen. Sir .Hugh Goff, in Old Memories. Indigestible.
