London lute reason long to remem,ber ber recent visitation by the fog. It began to be serious on a Monday, and ematinaed with little interruption for five days. Papers now to hand contain long accounts of the inconvenience and danger to property and lite by which this peenhae feathre of Eng- lish life was attested. Very cold weather for England preceded and accompanied it. For two or three nights a sharp frost had held the southern and midland districts in an icy ,grip. In Leicestershire the thermo- meter showed 23 0, while at York and in London it was 26.17 ° ,• indeed, on the grass at Brixton the screened thermometer mark- ed 21 0 These figures indicate very severe weather for England. It is added that thick hoar frost lay on the ground and roofs, On Tuesday, the frost was accompanied by a thick fog, which threw the noetropolis into dense gloom, delayed traffic in various directions, and stopped it altogether on the river. On the railways fog signalers were stationed at short intervals, and the reports of the detonaters were loud and frequent, On the Thames navigation was ENTIRELY SUSTENDED in consequence of fog, several large steam- ers, inward and outward bound, being de- layed. Oddly enough, a few days hi -afore this frost ripe raspberries were gathered at Wisborough Greeu, in Sussex, and there were many plants in full bloom. Ripe wild strawberries were also picked. at Waldron, in the same county, and in the Weald of Kent. The severe frosts, of course, destroy- ed the prospects of any further second crops. Ioa in Bothey Park was two inches thick. When the fog•set in with renewed vigor on Tuesday it was very dense. At no time was it pessible to see more than the distance of a few yards. The fog, which had then continued more or less for three days, was very general over the London area, and artificial light had to be used both indoors and out throughout the day, while during the greater part of the time the blackness was fully equal to that at mulniat. Over the greater part of the metropolitan area the gaslights were kept burning the whole of the day. The inconvenience caused was very great. On the complicated system of rail- way by which London is served it was im- possible to keep time. Trains were not 'merely delayed, but in several instances the whole service was completely disorganized. The marvel was that, even with all the as- sistance of fog signaling, it was possible to control the coming and going of hundreds of trains without accident. Risk must be en- ornaously increased when the tine table can no more be followed, when there is a sort of a go -as -you -please arrangement in operation, and the trains run, in the expressive but almost despairing language of offielals, any- how. Many of the omnibuses were in as evil plight. A journey from Chancery Lane to Regent Circus, ordinarily perforated -in twenty neanaes, occupied an hour and a efeertet. A disconsolate conductor declared that he had stood for forty minutes were left dark. In some parts the lamps were used in the main thoroughfares, but iiil the other streets were neglected, while there are several hundred crossings at which. some special illumination needed to be pro - Incidents of .the fog on Ttiesday gathered from several sources make up an interesting record. The temperatures in the morning were exceptionally low itt and amend. • London. At Wallington, about two miles from Croydon, the shade thermometer registered if 330 or 100 of frost ; at Nor- wood, 150 ; at Croydon 16 ° , and. at Brixton, 13 ° . In the soak -Ono saburbs of tne metropolis the thermometer •did not exceed 22°, and in the evening, in spite of the fog still continuing very dense, the temperatere was again falling, and there seemed every prospect of a very cold night. Every square inch of the Serpentine was covered with ice 1-e inch in thickness, and it was rapidly increasing iu solidity. The Long Water had upon it capital ice. On the waters there were numerous sliders and skaters in spite of the prohibition, but it, was impossible to keep them off. An average of about 140 of frost prevailed in suburbau Loudon. There was the gveatest risk of ac- cident in passing through -the parks, Some omnibus routes were without vehieles.owiug to the fog, and in the suburban roads the patrols. Exceptional along their beats in double Exceptional delays were caused in the Clutunel passenger trafficlowing to the heavy fog prevailing in tod near London, The Calais Continental express from Char- ing Cross, with ninety passengers, which should have arrived at Dover at 12:43, did not reach there until about 2 :15. The Calais boat was detained until I :45 and then left with the passengers by the London and Chatham Line, who had arrived within a few minutes of their ordinary time, Upon the Southeastern passengers arriving at Dover very great oissatisfaetion was ex- pressed at there being no boat to convey then across the Channel. They had to re- main at the hotels in Dover until 6 :30, when they crossed in the Club boat, whieh service had also boon delayed from a shnilar cause an hour and three-quarters, Intensely cold weather prevailed in En Kent, and she ponds and lakes were frozen to a great thickness. Skating was freely indulged in. On Tuesday there was a dense fog in many parts of the county, and nearly all the London trains were considerably de- layed from this cause. Only in the most severe Winters has the Hyth Canal been frozen over before. The frost penetrated .five or six inches into the ground. The entrances to the Thames and Medway were blocked for set eral hours by a dense fog. Thepassongdr boats between Sheerness and Port Victoria, in, connection with the Southeastern Railway, had to stop running, and all shipping movements in. Sheerness Harbor were suspended. The frost was very severe at Sheerness, and the Government eanal acres the lower portion of Sheppey was frozen over and occupied by skaters. William Briggs, aged seventeen, a van boy in the service of the London and Northwest ern Railway Cornpeny, was going to work at Collier Dock, Poplar, when he fell into the dock during the fog and was drowned. A mau was founcl lying insensible ia the causewly by the side of the River Wandle of Wandsworth. His clothes wore wet, and he ar eared to have falleu into the river durin the fog, succeeded in getting out, and ti 'n an o lip..1.0 become unconscious from ex- haustith. Ife was conveyed to the Wands- worth Infirmary, eelteee he 'was attended to by Dr. Pasmore. but hetadea soon after admission The Brighton and London parcels mail coach was proceedingfrom Croydon toward Streathatn when, owing to the dense fog, James Crown, the driver, mistook his way and drove into the Thornton Heath pond. Fortunately there is a low dividing wall in the center of the water, otherwise the coach musb have been overturned. The driver, was thrown from his seat into the pond, and sustained a severe shaking. Assistance speedily arrived from the Thornton Heath Police Station, and, the horses and coach having been extricated and another coach- man obtained, the mail resumed its journey after ninety minutes' delay. 1Early in the morning a serious collision, which resulted in severe injuries to three persons, took place on the Metropolitan Railway between Harrow and Pinner sta- tions. It appears that a number of men were engaged in unloading ballast from some trucks which were standing on the dewn 'line, when the first down train WU beard approaching and, before an alarm could be given'came into violent collision with the ballast train. The morning was unusually dark, in addition to which a thick fog pre- vailed and this it is surmised reveot 1 the signals from being observed. The driv- er stoker, and one of the guards received severe injuries, and were immediately con- veyed to St. 3Jary's Hospital, while a gang of :nen set to work to repair the damage. The fog which settled on Leeds on Sunday 1 morning continued increasing in density. Pedestrianism was both difficult and dan- gerous, and all vehicular traffic was render- ed well-nigh impossible. Added to the fog . was a keen frost, of which some 100 or 120 was registered. The railway companieestif- fered from the effects of the fog, trains on every liae being 'very late. The tram ears discontinued running, as also did the differ- ent services of omnibuses. During the fog at Morley, . Albert Hol- royd, a bra.kemitie, was knocked down and instantly killed, while Joseph Watmough, a baker of Pairbank, was drowned in the canal through missing his way. WITHOUT TURNING A WIIREL. Money would hardly tempt the cabmen to cross London Bridge, encumbered with traffic, and the roadways slippery with that peculiar greasy mud which fog produces, and which thoughtful municipal rulers so often !ergot to relieve by sprinkling gravel and sand on the treacherous surface. The extent to which such a pall of Egyptains darkuess acts in restraint and disorganizat- ion of business was bard to realize. It was almost pitiable to see the depots of the great °varying houses literally blocked -with carts unableno get about at a time when expedi- tion was most devoutly to be wished. It Christmas parcels wore delayed, the carriers were justified in pleading fog in their de- fense. In the shops business was wonderfally re- stricted. At one large establishment there were not more than thirty eusomers, when usually in there would have been counted a throng at least ten times as numerous. Several branches of business, notably those connected with the building trade, were momentarily at a standstill, and some thou- sands of workmen were out of employment. Nor was personal discomfort, wanting. To many persons acute pain was caused to the eyes, to a still larger number difficulty of breathing; and these inconveniences were not to be evaded by remaining indoors, for the penetrating material invaded every apartment, however well warmed: and cozy othsrwise. In its editorial comments on the melan- choly situation, the London "Daily News" observed that 13., city with five millions of people had had the daylight, blotted out by a dense and . . me a nig witness in the air, and nothing ceuld be done nothing even at- tempted, to remedy the evil. Every house was blaekeneci, furniture and hangings dirt- ied and spoiled, in many of the shops im- mense damage was done to delicate and costly goods, business of all kinds was hin- dered, and the tiaffic of the crowded streets was stilled to a funeral pace, yet nobody even asks why was such an evil was so patiently endured. The physical injary inflicted on large multitude and the convenience and suf- feralg which nearly everybody had to endnre made such a visitatiou a public calamity. There were few persons on whom direct loss was riot imposer', and who would not find it to their advantage to. make a consid- erable payment in the way of "ransom" if it could buy immunity from the nuisance. This journal finds it difficult to believe that nothing can be done; that science has said its last word on the subject; that enterprise and discovery Immo been exhansted, or Opt legislation is impossible. On the south and east coasts and over vast tracts of conntry the weather was fine and bright, while Lon- don was a city of dreadful night. "It would be better," says the "Daily News." "tto try the American rain -making experi- ment than none at all." Apart, however, from any effort to deal with the fog and smoke, the same paper ays, the local authorities might at 'least, ry to disperse the darkness. The lighting f the streets is e» tirely in the bands of he vestries and district boards, and they eem, as a rule, to be utterly paralyzed by uch a fog. In some parishes the public lamps were lighted in tho morning and kept burning all day, bit t in others no at- tempt was ma.de to light the streets till the usual hour in the evening." In Chancery Lane the public lamps were lighted git the City end, but , . NOT A SOLITARY masa was visible in all the rest of that busy AT'n' sw thoroughfare.

DISEASE -RIDDEN SANTOS, Ravages of Yellow Fever and Small.nOx itt a,Hro.silian Port. Eighteen Captains of Illerehant Teasels Among the victims 'within the Moat Two Eloaths-Only One-third of These Who Are Stricken litteover -The Ita Way and ll'intrves Clogged, and 200 I essele WaIti8g to Unload Their Car- goes. Reports from Brazil say that yellow fever and small -pox are now raging at Santos with almost unprecedented fury, and the summer season has only just begun. As an indication of the fearful prevalence of the diseases it is said that eighteen Captains of merchant vessels have been stricken down and have died within the pest, two months. They constitute but a stuall fraction of the many victims. On some vessels the entire ship's company, officers and men have been swept away by the cotnbined iorce of the diseases. Of all the persons attacked it is estimated that only about one-third have left their beds alive. At the offices of the different companies in this city engaged in the Brazilian trade it was said yesterday that nearly every mail brings the announcement of one or more deaths from the ships in port at Santos. On board the ships which have lately returned from Brazil the situation at Santos was described as pitiable indeed. The Captains of the different vessels all give =eh, the same account. Yellow fever and small -pox, they. say, have also broken out at Rio jaueiro, but to nothing like the same ex- tent as at Santos. At Rio Janeiro a Euro- pean company has recently reconfitrueted the drainage system, while at Santos the drainage system is in a more frightful con- dition t an ever, To make matters worse at Santos, the means of transportation have become clogged and vessels arriving in the ports are obliged to wait weeks and months for warfage and dock room. The whole harbor is crowded with suchvessels, lying idle in the pestilent waters. Santos is about 120 miles south of Rio Janeiro. It lies on the inner ,side of the island of Samos, which extends within a short distance of the coast, The province of St. Paul stretches along the opposite coast, and the greater partt of the merchan- dise landed at, St. Paul, which hes inland about three hours' ride by rail. The mer- chandise brought to Santos is exchanged for coffee, which is about the only export from the neighbouring tiountry. The small railway between Santos and St. Paul. has proved wholly inadequate to the increased demands that have been made on it this year, and at present both ends of the line are reported to be clogged, and the work of transportation is going on at a suail's pace, The Custom Roues is crowded to the doors with merchandise, and some companies have been forced to rent prtvato buildirgs at a heavy cost to receive cargnes. In some cases where no room could be found the cargo has been dimmed in the etreets, and great piles of goods are said to be lying iu different parts of the town under guard, waiting for an opportunity of storage of transportation. New ships are arriving every day to increase the difficulty. One Captain said yesterday that when he left thtre were 200 verse's waiting ofl Santos to unload their cargoes. Not only was the snuill harbor in hont of the town completely lined with them, but the line of vcseels extended the whole length of the river leading into the port on the northeast side of the island, and quite a fleet had been. forced to anchor off the south end of the Went" in Santos Bay.. It is among the ships and along the water front, that the black vomit and small -pox have dove their most deadly \Wet. The drainage of the port empties into the river close to the railway wharf, which is the place where the larger vessels go to unload. Of the many vessels that have been at this wharf to unload in the last two months the Chaucer of the Liverpool, Brazil and River Platte Stream Navigation Company is said to 'be the only one that did not give up some of Tier crew to the pestilences. The water in front of the port and. along the river where the reseals are anchored is described as black and foul. It is filled with animal and vegetable growths, plainly visible to the eye the Captains say, if a glass of it is held to the light. The bottom of the river is black, bad - smelling mud. When the tide goes down great stretches of this bake in the sem Near some of the wharves the water is not deep enough for the ehip.s, and the unloading is carried on across scows. At low water many of these are left buried in the seft mud. The inen working on there are said to fur- nish a largo number of the fever's victims. A stone quay is now building on the water front, and dredges and scows are incessant- ly at work spreading the contagion that the mud is supposed to contain. This is given as nee of the principal causes for the fierce outbreak of the diseases. The number of those stricken down is so great tbat only apart of them can be accom- modated at the hospital. Temporary quart- ers have been fitted up as well as circum- stances would allow, and as fast as the hospital is filled the extra victims are dis- tributed among the other places. In most eases those stricken down live at the longest only a few days. Sometimes they are dead in a few hours. As soon as certain symp- toms appear the physicians aro able to calculate the time when death will probably occur, and the family or friend of the dying man are notified to have all arrangements for the burial ready at that time. No delay is permitted. If the family or friends do not, opine forward the city takes charge of the burial. The usual time for the yellow fever to be at its worst has only just begun. From January to March is the summer season in Santos's,. latitude, and it is iu the hottest weather that the disease works the most damage. In addition to the increasing heat, the exposures that the people always suffer at the festivals and carnivals coming at this season of the year, are counted as likely to increase the ravages of the disease. To meet this expected increase a new hospital is building, and at last reports work on it was being pushed night and day. Some of the Captains and officers of ves- sels that have recently arrived in &altos have immediately taken passage on outgoing vessels back to Eng and or American. The number of ships waiting to be unloaded is now to large, that the newcomers have the prospect of being delayed for months and the officers, knowing this, are getting away from danger. Some of the companies, it is said, have procuredhouses some distance back from town for the sailors to live in while the vessels are in port waiting, to be unload A bazaar in Moscow, presided over by Grand Dachess Elizabeth, wife of the Gov- ernor of Moscow, realized n10,000 for the &mite fund.

Her father was a mil Umpire, whose life bad. been devoted to sausage-maltieg. Be was praetiraluatually, but all the poetry of the family NM centred in her, She was beloved by another millionaire's son, but she had been reading •romance and stuff, ana when he propesed to her declared he must do something poetical/or her. "Dearest, what can I do?" "Become a poor artiste" "I couldn't be any other kind of an artist." "I mean you must pretend to become a poor artist. Pa does not know you. You must come and make lova tet me and I nail fall in love with you. Pa will object and make a row. We will elope and get mar- ried, and when it ia all over we'll tell him, and it will be delightful." And so he became a poor artist and took a poor studio and daubed on canvas and pre- tended to paint pictures. And there was anuther millionaire's daughter got to coming to bus studio and. sitting for her picture. ... In those delightful tete-a-tetes he forgot all about the romantic maiden, and when the romantic maiden °erne one night in peasant costume as a sweet surprise to rnn away with him, she found he bad married 1teoon.ther gir, , and had gone off on Ins loney. i She thinks that romances are ellfies now, 1 and tern, nothing happens in real life as it happens in books.
