The vinegards tiens of a French expedition in Chinese Tur-
of the district are its chief resource. Around the town on all sides nave one, rise perpendi- cular cliff, through which tunnels have been driven for the road and the railway line. The Air winds out of the bowl by a COLLETO which causes it to double back on in own track, The bed of the river runs between steep, rocky cliffs, which give the water no chance to spread. The river, swollen by the deluge of rain, roms to have filled the bowl; then, with the whold of ita ga bored force, to have driven itself a track through the railway arch, dashed down the rapide beyond, sweeping nway all sailway bridges, which stand high above the torrent, demolishing the villages perched on the narrow greensward between the cliffs and the rivers, and drowning buod ads of people. The reports pot the leas of life at from 100 to 5oo. A great many bodies have been found hanging in trees. The gravity of the disastercan best be estimated by the fact that the torrent swept away Altenahr railway bridge, which stood 56 feet above the usual level of the torrent. All communications are interrupted, as Altenahr can only be reach. ed now by a difficuli rause over the hills or by a loog journey round and over the Eiffel range The toad and railway in the valley have beco swept away Some sheds in which Italian and Croatian labouseze were sleeping close to the river were swept into the stream, and be labourers were drowned, in their bedi. At Honingen, a builder's shed, where twenty-five workmen were sleiping, was torn away by the fload and the fate of the men is unknown. It is reported from Blankenstein, in Bavaria, that "three workmen's bartacky, containing four huu- dred men, were swept away, and ibat a hoodred men were drowned. It is regarded as certeio that 150 persons have perished in the Aki valley. The bridge over the Ahr at Schuld was crowded with people watching the ft joded river mossing underdeath, when it collapsed: Forty-nine badies have been washed ashore at Schuld.
Obierammergau was also flooded in couse quence of the storm, railway communication being laterrupted, and visitors being kept prisoners in the village.
THE NEW YORK SHARK MARKET.
HEAVY DECLINE.
loa telegram which reached the Foreign Office on the zad instant, Mr. Mizuno, Japanese Consul-General in New York, says :-Since the 28th'uft, the- New York share market bas heavily declined, maoy shares golog down. by more than 20-points Even sallway shares which wore comparatively firm is the las financial papic have been seriously af lected. From yesterday the leading banks have been jointly buying large quantities of shares with the idea of relieving the situation, bul with little result. The cause of the slump appears to be the decision prived at by the Interstate Commerce Commission that the freight-rates charged by certain railway com panics were excessiva and illegal. Various extremely pesimistic reports are being cir culated, but no credit cap as yet be placed on them.
RIDING ACCIDENTS IN YOKOHAMA,
Two'lmeign residents of Yukobama have been seriously injured while borseriding. The Japan Gazette reports a rather bad accident which befell Mr W. S. Moss, of Yokohams, on the 4th instant. As far as can be learned, Mr. Moss was riding near Hozmoko, when his horts bolted. Mr. Mass was throwo, and in fatting 'caught bis foot in the stirrup, the horse dragging bima considerable distance. A Japanese woman endeavoured to stop the horse, and in doing so compelled it to swerve to one side of the rond, bus enablleg Mr. Mors to release bis foot, Mr. Moss, who was uccnoscious for several hours, was badly cat about the face, mod sover- al ribs were broken. 'Dr. Davies was called in, and the patient's lojurion were immediately astonded to. It is reported that Mr. Mess's in- futies are rather serious,
The Genette also leares that Mr. H. Blum, of Yokohama Brewery on the 4th instant, was thrown from his horse, and dislocated bis aboulder.

The members of the expedition found about co gritos filled with interesting rock palat- lugs near a place called Touen Houang, once a powerful city, but now a collection of tuts in #desert. In olden times, before the Chinese had learned tot to cut down xil the trees, it was, not a desert -another lasson we may learn from the Orientals. The wind blew away the sand and the walled in door of a cave was disclosed to the explorers. Inside were found some 20,000 rolls of mnauscripte god packages of learning bad been walled up about 1035, under menace of an invasion, probably. Among the manuscripts was the dead which Honel-1'is gave to the monks when the libraty was finished. His character le shown in its words, translated as follows!
