We quietecl Sate, and put him to work
with the others coeetructing a rude raft out
of the dead tree* which were lying around
in abundance, Ira a short time the raft
waft ready, and we paddled ourselves to
the islaod,
"it shakes, " exclaimed Dupont, who
Was the first to laud.
Sam was the next one on shore, but he
at owe stepped back on the raft.
"De Lewd hab Inuest! 1" he said, "1
kain't Mau' date"
We all followed Dupont and found that
the isleud was trembling quite perceptibly..
" Perhaps it is a, floating ' suggested
one of my compauions.
It is nothing of the kind, I remarked.
" have honed of it before, but NYC are
doubtleas the firat white men who have
landed here in forty years."
"What do yott know about it ?" aaked
Dupont quickly.
"Simply this. When Sir Charles Lyell,
the famous British geologist, visited this
country, he explored the swamp and exam-
ined this very spot 1:113 found it shaking
all the time, with fissures in the earth
&instantly opening and closing, with the
same peculiar smoke rising from them. He
canae to the conolusion that the crust of the
earth was thinner right laere than in any
locality of the globe. The volcanio aetion
near the7surfece causes the smoke and also
the continual bubbling of the leke. This
may have been going on for centuries. You
know that the Indian word Ohefinokee
means trembling earth."
"Well, I can't say that I care to camp
here," said Dupont ',but as we are here
we might as well explore a little."
This was the general opinion, and Sam
Was persuaded to leave his quarters on the
raft and trust himi5elf to the unstable land.
"1 have found a toper," reported one
of our explorers, who had been rambling
about on his own hook.
Guided by him we went to a little spring
of boiling water that was gushing forth
near the centre of the island. With the
water came jets of steam, sand and blue
innd. At this plebe the shaking was so
violent that le made us stagger, and we
could hear under our feet a muffled roar or
rumble.
"Meese Ross," gasped Sam, "1 mus' git
ouVer heah."
He made a run toward the raft, when a
smell fissure in the earth about a foot wide
yawned in front of him. The poor fellow
dropped on the ground in speechleSA terror.
We helped him up and tried to reassure him,
but it was no use. As soon as he was calna
• enough to walkhemadea break for the raft.
"Sam is the only sensible fellow in the
party," said Dupont. "There is danger of
breaking a leg ui one of these fissures, and
I don't see why a man could net he swallow-
ed -up,"
I laughed at this. Sir Charles Lyon had
spoken of the island as a remarkable curi-
osity, but had not predicted any serious
outbreak of the forces of nature.
"See that 1" continued Dupont.
I !tasked. The fissure which had frightea-
ed Samhed closed up completely. I drew
a long breath. In the midst of such /keno-
s:am= a man feels small. Before I could
aay anything there was a deafening roar,
a thousand cracks opened in the earth, and
the smoke coming out of the ground was so
thick that wewere almost stifled. Undoubt-
edly, it was a genuine shock of earthquake—
something altogether different from the light
tremors previously felt.
"We must run for it," I shouted.
Just then another shock came and threw
WA heavily M the ground. We rose in a
dazed condition, and saw within, a few feet
of us a yawning chasm fully three feet wide
and a hundred feet long. It emitted e. volume
of Bteam, and with inconceivable rapidity
closed np with another jar that nearly
toppled us over again.
We started on a run for the raft.
"Whore is Dupont ?"
We all asked this question at once. The
raft was in sight, but Sam was the only
occupart We faced about, but oould see
nothing of the missing man. Had he in his
terror taken the wrong direction? It would
not do to leave him, and there was nothing
to do but retrace out steps.
We yelled out hit name, and traversed
every foot of the island. There was not a
trace of our friend. We looked at each
other with terror-etricken faces. The same
thought was uppermost in the minds of all,
Had Dupont been swallowed up in the
yawning chasm? It looked very much likeit
Again we reeumed our scarab, but without
any better success than before. Then we
gloomily made our way to the raft and
paddled to the other shore. I suggested
that -Dupont had rushed off when the shock
came, and. Minded, by the smoke, he had.

All the apattmente within the building,

Australian Rabbit Plague.
Several of the worstpests Of ourfields,in the
way of weeds, were introduced here from
Europe asornamental or usefulplants. From
a similarienorance, or thoughtlessness, the
rabbit was introdu.ced into Australia as
pet, or possibly as a harmless creature of
the chase, and he has already, proved him-
self more than a raatch for dogs and men.
The London 'Telegraph tells us that one
tract of scrub, or bush, half as large as
Scotland, is already so overrun with rab-
bits that it is abandoned by the settlers.
The soil of the eagle:a-a mixture of said
and dust—isadmirably suited to the rabbit
for burrowing in. The lack of rain he
does not mind in the least or if he does
mind, it is to take delight in the drought.
As compared with the wet, clayey soil of
England, the dust of Australia is a rabbit's
paradise.
Nature practises a curious economy in
allowing the rabbit to thrive. In the first
place this animal eats the scanty herbage
upon which the settlers' sheep were paatured.
Then the wild dogs which were nearly
exterminated, find this fat rabbits excellent
food, so that the dogs in turn multiply
and grow strong. Thus the dogs become
emboldened and attack the poorly fed sheep.
The country has therefore to be abandoned
to the rabbits and dogs.
Ferrets and weasels have been imported.
hito .Australia to prey upon the rabbits,
bet, strangely unserountable it may Le
these natural enemies in Europe fraternize
in the colonies. Thousands of bushels of
poisoned oats have been sown where the
rabbits would eat them, but the increase
of the animals has not been stopped. The
only protection to the fieldsof wheat against
the misehievous visits of the rabbit is
to fence with wire -netting. Besiclea a fence
such as the creature cannot bop over, astrip
of netting has to be laid dat upon the
ground to prevent him from burrowing
ender it.
At the sarne time that the rabbits are
multiplying so rapidly in Australia, the
price is advancing in all the markets of
Europe. A market value will prove more
fatal to the animal than poisoned oats or
weasels or a bounty on his ears. Once let
it become possible to furnish the rabbits
fresh in the markets of London, and that
is now the pest of Australia will prove a
source of revenue to the settlers.

China Advancing.
• It seems that China is bound to come
more and more to the front in the family of
nations. Hitherto comparatively little has
been known about the character and extent
of her resources, but as the veil is being
raised it is discovered that these resources are
both many and very great. She hasapparently
all the elements necessary to her taking a
place in the front rank. The population is,
of course, an excuse. The fertility of the
soil is great. The industry and higennity
• of the inhabitants are undoubted and the
products of the coun ry are indefinitely
varied and valuable: It is now said that
China is the most wonderful gold -producing
country in the world and that its govern-
ment is now resolved to develope its mines.
to the utmost, just as hitherto an absolute
embargo has been put upon them. A
company of experts has been engaged by the
Chinese Government and have received
carte blanche as to the kind and character of
the machinery they are to take in order to
test the reality and extent of those mines.
It is expected thatvvonderfnlly rich "placers"
will be found and operated in all parts of
the Empire. Then the Chinese are just,
beginning to introduce a railway syBtem of
unparalleled extent and importance, This
will give a wonderful impetus to all de-
partments of railway furnishings for a
good *many years to come. The same thing
ie true of Japan, while the communications
between both those countries and Canada
will become always more intimate and pro-
fitable, The extent of the trade thus likely
to be built up may he such as could scarcely
be spoken of as exaggerated language. In
such circurnstancea, it is the most short-
sighted folly to talk of boycotting the
Chinese or of driving them from this conti-
nent. To do this would not be possible if
it were desirable, and in the circumetances
it indicates but short-eighted folly. If the
Chinese break sanitary or moral laws let
them be punished just like other people,
but to talk of driving them from the Conti.
nrrt issimply an indication of short sighted
folly.

evening service—a service which I have no
doubt will be long remembered by, the great
majority of the large audience the Doctor
had on that occasion. Although the preach-
er had nothing to do with the choice of the
chents and hymns, yet he most skilfully
used them in connection with his sermon in
order to produce a beauty like that of a
noble tree with its mot, trunk, branches,
leaves, and fruit The 23 Psalm
has been appropriately called not only the
the pearl but the nightingale of the psalms;
and it was so chanted by the choir and con-
• gregation, and so reed and afterward opened
up by the preacher, that it brought to
the eargate, and through the eargate
to the sanctum smactorum of the heart,
some of the notes of it melody sweeter
than the warblings of the nightingale; some
of the accenta of a music heard only in
holiest, heavenliest dreams, The preacher
also read with fine emphasis and solemnity
the 10th chapter of the gospel according to
John. . . . These few particulars
can no more than give you an idea of Dr.
's sermon than a few twigs from one or
two of the trees can give you an idea of the
glory of the forest. I would ask Dr.
to print the sermon verbatim et literatint,
• but I know that is impossible, as he had not
a note before him, and the better half of the
sermon has never been written and never
ean be written except in the imperishable
leaves of the human soul. Dr. Cairns was
once twitted by a Scotch elder for preach -
Ing it sermon twice. The doctor, in reply,
said, "You are not aware that that sermon
has just reached ite majority." Dr. Cairns
had delired the discourse, doubtless with
many variations, 21 times. We hope that
Dr. will be spared to preach the glori-
ous gospel of Christ for many years yet,
and that he will consent to preach the ser-
mon until it reaches ten majorities and is the
means of bringing myriads of souls to Christ"

"'armless' was wrong. It is 'armful.
Lady Burdett -Coutts expresses a willing-
ness to expend 8125,000 on an industrial
fair school at Baltimore in West Cork, ac-
cessible to all Irish youth. She thinks such
a salmi would benefit all Ireland.
