D., is just out with a pamphlet aettingfortit a mi;hty,ttovel proposition, in detail, on "An Aerial Ratil- way for the Exploration of the Polar Z,ne, and for Air Transit Over Water and Land,' Nothing more readable in the Jules Verne line waa ever evolved in brief ; and, in view of the seasonable character c£ the prapoel tion ---now that people are actually skipping around the world to beat the records, -and with projeotora all but proposing to girt the globe with railroads, the whole peewee lat worthy a place in the columns of a daily newepepera. Dr. Thayer tells it all as lollowe : In October, 1$33, in the teeth of a gale of wined, we steamed out of the harbor of Qzteenstowne 'mend for New York. Aff)ek of gulls kept company with us across the Atlantic. Oar speed from shore to shore was fifteen miles an hour, while the wind was blowing in anopposite direction during the gale with a velocity of thirty or forty Moles 4? hour. Our convoy, the fink.a of +Fth the greatest apparent ease, seem- 6 xeating aeon their wings, and ae if name ter AN INYIBl,1sLE Pence. kept even with us, and oft and frequently, sad laughing at our delay and inveting ns to emulate their 'peed, oe steady wings would glide away be advance of the ship, cross our bow, fall back into the rear With• ont any apparent expenditure of force. Thea observations led ns to the reasonable oonoluulen that these bird!, with all the ea$e Of thouahb, moved through the air at the rate of utty mile* au hour, and continued it for more that a week. The phenomenon was observed and re- marked upon by several of our compenions of tho Toyago, from day to day, durieg the continuance of the gale, but no one could throw any light upon le by way of expleua fieri, It appears that thea° gulls were on the wing for mora thea a week, unseat they were complemented by a relty during the night, which is not probable. All aloof{ the line of history we fled wile men have pre dieted that man will navigate the air like a bird, but to the present hour no ono has been able to Imltete the act or explain the medee operandi. it is ae much a mystery to day eat it was in the days of King Soloman, We may recoil the marvelous feet that the home Pigeons have traversed the air 110 miles In 100 minute*, Thin fact declare* the wonder fat power of their flight, while the gyrations of the *wallow and the Swift proclaim their wonderful aeeuraey of flight, kite invention ef the *Wel reitway point* the way to the brat steep in the 'elation of the sublime problem. The erriel railway consist* of an apparatus whtch I* acted open by two foroos, the first of Well is the wind acing by oblique impaet aeon the murfae° of europium or kite', *ad the second, the Tea time:' to that lama force, by means of a drag at molt* ends of three or more drangl,' t fines. Fore* No. 1 is the direct n otion of the wind upon the aeroplanes Force No. 2 is the resietaace whioh the drag offer* to Oust ot the wind. By the judicious use of thane two forces -. we are enabled to travel over water and land, i OVER BADS .IND MAIN ; C to explore unknown region, of the polar tuna; to ems the prairies and pampas cf I North and South Amerlc3, the artd steppes et 1 t 'o sandy plains of Africa ; to oart'y t line and needed supplies to ettewreeke maximise; to saaend to great titudes fo', purposes of observation; to Melt with little expense andtrouble any of the islands of the Paeifio archipelagos; to' , resole the liorGhorn and Southern Poles, anl'. other looelities which, by other means are difficult of access. The apparatus onside of several series of aeroplanelies, and the drsg lines of, these dkite Attached to some impedi• menta°or dreg . In the water a drag may oonsiab of a number of boats fastened to wither, sometimes called a catamaran, to increase the roultirauce of the wind, thereby diminishing the velocity of the aeroplanes or kite- If the catamaran be inenffiotent in its reeistanoe to the force of the wind aoting upon the aeroplanes or kites, we may add logs of wood to the 'drag, or any other method of increasing its weight and resist• anoe. The drag, when traversing over the -land, consists of wheels and axies with a brake ; when traversing over ice it consists of heavily laden sledges end any additional device to increase the resistance. At the very top of the figure are four bal loons. The use of these balloons is to keep the kites aloft when the wind dies away. These aeroplanes, or kites. may be multipli- ed at pleasure, and each kite may be made', more buoyant by increasing the number and eke of the balloone, and the principal use of the balloons is to keep the kites aloft In the absence of the wind. If there were .,-always a wind to be depended upon there le I would be no use for balloons. In each series '"k of aeroplanes, or kites, there are two broad, largo kites, and to the right and left of them are two narrow kites which we call wings. To the outer edge of these wings aro attached ropes palled braces. When in THE COURSE OF THE VOYAGE it became necessary to change the direction of the flight in order to avoid an island, an iceberg, or the enemy, if deeirablo co evade such dangers, by °seep° to starboard, we would haul upon the right-hand braces, thereby flexing the starboard wings, whioh would drive our apparatus away to the right. If, on the oontrary, it became neoees- ary to escape to the left, we would haul on the port braces, thereby so flexing the pare wings that our whole apparatus would be carried to the left. If, in oases of voyages of observation, it becomes necessary to seek greater or lees altibudos, we effect this by hauling on the halyards which are attached to the Iowa es of the aeroplanes or kites, the lower whioh halyards are within each of bhe.eoyagers. Previous to starting upon the voyage, we will suppose that the oar is resting in the water by the lido of the drag. When everything is ready and we desire bo weigh anchor, it is necessary for us to locate the oar up to the railroads sufficiently high to avoid the touch of the waves. In order to do this it is neoessary bo raise the .sail at' bashed to the front of the oar resting upon the three rails or drag lines above the oar, y means ot the sail halyards, the lower end' of whioh, halyards .are within reachof the oyagers, and then by the force of the wind the oar is carried up the railroad a few feet as may be required for purpose above men- tioned, when we apply the brake, whioh grasps the cables or drag lines, to whioh and beneath whioh the oar hangs suspended. This brake holds the oar in any portion of the track where It may be desirable for her remain. gulls, ed to INFLDTt11ZA ON WAR$HII'8.. Mow the Epidemic Struck Sleet and 'Visited Distant Jslande. The peculiarity of influenza, says an Eng. Usk writer, is that a Sea or an ocean pute no liatita. tc its progress. Ships sail into infiu- erz. as they sail into toe doldrums; in puking through a certain region of tate high emus they take on board .eomethiug which aterts an epidemic of leileeez;, among the crew, and if they be not for from port, they will nob improbably find the epidemic pre - vetting on shore when they arrive. The. fl tet under Kempeufelde left Spi'hoad on the 2::d of Mete 17&1, and kept cruising out of sight of land between the Laz.rd and Cape Uahant, Attout the end of May itiflaerze broke out en board all or moat of the chips, and so esrioasly disabled the crews thea tho Ad- miral was obliged to return to port in the second week of June. Another incident in the naval annals brings one a further eurious aide of this many-sided epidemic izfieence. The frigitte. Hese arrived at Portsmouth from Newfoundland on Nov. 4, 17588, at a time when influenza was prevalent in that port. At once alt the dogs on board the frigate were taken with cough and catarrh, and in a short time the whole shlp s cont: patrysickened with it, Another exemple, similar to the tact, was furnished by Lerd Monte'% fleet, which sail ed from England for the Datcl: coast on the 6:h of May in the same year. Towards the end of May the disorder appeared among the crew of the Ripppe, and, two days later, AMCOR the crew at the 1?'rinoesr A.melte. The crewed other obit* is the fleet were ad'eated at different tithes, some not untll their return to Portetnouth in the Second week of Jeno. Thin fleet, like that of Admiral Ketnpenfeldb, had no commend- eetton with the share, after Leaving Porte• mouth, until it matted the Devine, on ire return, about the 3rd or 4th of Zane. An equally remarkable iaetaaoe of an cppoeita kind was observed during the eptdetmio of 1837, whet% the malady is thee mcntioued as having been prevalent in Lisbon, and among the merchant ehipping in Portuguese and 8panIeh perts, during the month of Jan- uary.

Another curious phenomenon is in the epidemic catarrh which breaks out ataeng thelubabitants of snob remote lelands as� St. Arida and Ieolend, when Onagers tomb. at the former, or the first Spring ships ar- rive at the latter. The Sb. Kilda irlacr:s, used to be thought to be a mere finita, el. though Dr. Johnston believed in it against the ccientifih opinion of this day. A writer in a:recent number of the "Pall MallGazstte" says: Dazing seven years' reaidenoe in Norfolk Wand, the wdli'known aettlemcnt of the dcacendante of the Bounty mutineers.

Sob the phenomenon is not confined to Norfolk Is - laud. Why Europe is Sorambline for Africa. The question is often asked why the various Earopaan powers are sorambling for ponieeelone in Africa, quarrelling over boundary lines and evidently jealous of one another's interests. Many people have the impression that so far an the larger part of Africa is concerned, the game is not worth the candle. Wby then, after the lapse of centuries during whioh all Christ endom knew little and oared less about Africa, is there this enormous activity which is ewallowing up immense sums of money and has made Africa today, after Earope and this country, the most impor- tant centro of interest and source of news? This question is easily answered, and an illustration or two will help to make the an- swer clear. Let us look at Lagos, an un- healthful and uninviting place in tropical West Africa. If we examine the trade statietioe of this little plane we find that just a quarter of a century ago its imports and exports in one year amounted to $698,- 325; that for a long time its trade grew very slowly, that of late years it has been ad- vancing with rapid strides, and that in 1887 its imports and exports amounted to $4,174,• 060. Let us turn now to the coasts of tropical East Africa, where the vast native popula- tion are only beginning to emerge from a state of barter, and are still buried In bar- barism and ignorance; and yet in epite of their low condition and of the Arab elave trade and other disturbances which have long kept their country in a turmoil, we find that these natives are the spontaneous pro- ducers of exports that for some years have amounted to about $4,000,000 per. annum. It has been proven that their country pos- sesses large resources, and it certainly is not a Utopian idea to suppoae that lbs trade, under happier conditions and properly stimulated and organized, .is capable of large development. In seven months of lash year about $500,000 worth of ivory was sold in Antwerp from a pari of the Upper Congo which, five years ago, had never contributed a cent to the wealth of foreignmarkets; and it is found that in parte of this basin toba000,. coffee, and many other products thrive, and steps have already been taken to open in this region plantations for producing these commodities. Ib is an experiment. to be sure, but its promoters have good reason to believe that it will succeed, and that planta- tions will pay, This, then, is the reason why the Euro- pean nations are sorambling for Africa ; they see there potentialities capable of be- coming large sources of trade and wealth; and every year they are beooming more and more pertain that Interests acquired on that continent will in the long run pay well for the investment, : • • • No pissing Likely. is (Irnpp (10 I'.

There are in France 377 associations of employers, 391 of workmen and 597 of farmers. The workmen's assooiations which were formerly political organisations, have become for the most pari purely mutual benefit societies of late years. The agri- cultural associations do not agitate politi- oally like our Grangers. They are to a large extent oo•operative and technical. The farmers' association near Fontainebleau, for instance, owns a slaughter house, at .whish every member has his cattle killed ab very low prices. This and other similar co- operative devloes of the French farmers' associations show that the French peasant is not so stupid and helpless as he le general ly supposed to be.
