the Devil's Current in the Bosphorus, for, though bandly per- ceptible when the wind blows from the south-west, it runs with grest violence and rapidity when the wind comes from the opposite quarter. Our own country is not without | instances, for the name Devil's Throat is applied by seainen to Cromer Bay, owing to its danger to navigation. On land we have "Devil's Elbows.". Those known to me are both in Scotland. They each consist of a road descending`a atoep hill, and made zigzag ot very sharp angles to moderate the de- clivity. One is between Braemar and Spital of Glenshee, and the other near Selkirk. There is a third in the Mount Lofty Range, near Adelaide, South Australia; but this title, as Debrett would say, ia probably a very recent "creation."
SIGNIFYING DANGER.
Danger, I take it, suggested the name Devil's Kettle being given to a hole in the cliff between Stimme- haven and Dunotter Castle, in Kincardineshire. As regards, shape, "funnel" would have been a more apt description; the opening is wide" at the surface, nearly circular, and narrow lowards the bottom, where an inverted neck opens into a rocky cavern into which the ses doabes. The sides near the top are smooth and covered with short graes, aud any one who slipped thereon would liave little chance of escaping a boil- ing in the "Lettle." The Devil's Beef-tub, a curious depression in the surface of the ground near Moffat, is believed to derive ita name from so many, cattlo having fallen into it.
Where a natural feature-takes the form of something maz in in the habit of making for himself, but fa too vast to have been made by human agency, demoniacal work- manship is almost sure to be seenm ed. Thus in the Pass of Glencos there is a series of natural stepe so extremely like a man-made stair- caso as to be an instance in paint. And that the meal-tube of the ne ther regions may be, well filled there is a Devil's Mill at Rumbling Bridge near Dollar, in Bcotland. Our ghostly enemy ik generally cote erorth to employ spiritual rather than mechanical weapona. NovEZ theless, ihren
