They were made up in two sections each, pear-shapadand enclosed in booms. Through the rivers the sections were towed separately, and they also went through the rapids in the same shape without loss or damage. The run is about one mile in length and the fall in the neighborhood of 20 feet. The entire distances from start to destination is about 600 miles. The run froin Detour was made in 14 dap, the average speed being about 1 miles an hour. There were four tuge, the Winslow, Mocking Bird, James Reed and D. L. Hibberg.

Mr. Haskell, although one of the pioneers in stage driving (he formerly ran from Lewis- ton to Niagara Falls and Buffalo), is hale and hearty, and bids fair to iive for many yews. The strange stories of his' early adventures would fill a voluixie.

The Queen is unueually late this year in her visit to her Highland hoene-e, delay which may be amounted for by the dell- oate state of health of the little Duke of Albany, in whose welfare the Queen is deeply interested. A very unpleasant soot to disagree with is a new refigious body whose existence has within a few months come to light in the Crimea. Members deem it their duty to kill on the earliest opportunity those who differ with them. Royalties axe not very consistent in their persecution of the Grand Duke of Hestia. Prince Albert'e cousin, Dom Fernando, father of the King of Portugal, contracted a inarriage of a similar descrip- tion, only that the lady, though equally attractive with Mate. de Kolemine, did not occupy eo goocl a position. She was an American actress. London Truth has the following notes: The Empress Eugenie is staying at Carls- bad, at the Hotel Westminster, close to the Sohlombrunnen. Pauline Luce, is expected to sing in Peri!! this winter. Her constant refueal to sing Wagner's musio will doubtless make her a favorite with the Parisians. Mr. Boehm is engaged on two busts of the late Duke of Albany, whioh have been ordered by the Queen. One of them is to be placed in the Prince Pommes mauso- leum at Progmore, and the other is intended for Balmoral. One of the first couples which took advantage of the new French divorce law bore the name of Granville. • The lady; who married at 161 obtained a separation fifteen dap after the wedding and had been awaiting her dtvoroe exmly fifty years. In the course of last year the British army was strengthened by the enlistment of 768 reeruits under D17 years of age. I hope that this will be one of the .first subjects to engage the attention of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children. . , An American exhibition in London, if the Americans will frankly take 58 up, would be most interesting. But in 1866 it is already arranged that there is to be an exhibition ofcolonial produots at the Healtheriee. 11 Would be well, therefore, to put off this exhibition until 1.877, and then to !Merge nothing for space to exhi- bitors nor a peroentage on artiolee sold.

The worship of gold can be shown to have descended to us from the sun worship1 whieh, in some form or 'Other, has been almost universal. In plain Words, men took to collecting gold and making gold trinkets, charms and amulets, because gotd was the same- color,, and possibly et the Same divine material, as the sun. The . eiteredness of gold is indicated by Pinder, who, invoking Theis, the mythical mother of the Sun god, exclaims: " ThrotIgh thee it is that mortals esteem mighty gold above all things else 1" 'Originating thus in the most absurd superstition, the suppose& • likeness of the yellow metal to the color of the sun god's face, the value of gold has prevailed over the world for so Many ages that it has become a hereditery passion; and bemuse of the value thus set on it, and for no other reason, gold has long been the highest metellic medium of exoliange. Mr. elebbert Brown., F. S.A., in his learned and intereeting treatise, "The Myth of Kirke." remarks : " The links between gold.and molar divinities are endless, and the drown - stamen supplied a natural basis for the commercial value of the metal."
