DEGREE RELATIVE TO THE RE MOVING OF THE PHI-TʻANO CATHEDRAL AT PEKING.

Washington is growing with marvellous rapi- dity. At least two or three bandrod fine hoses are boon halit in the fashionable quarter siuos last spring, the majority of them for rish people who rutead to make the Amorlean Capital" their winter home.
A letter in the St. Lonis lode-Damecral, that speaks of the Danish Capital: Copen hagen and its environs are rich in palaces, and the wealth of art that they contain is an unəzd ing sarprise to one. The whole of the sandy, sky, low-lying islands of Denmark do not equal in ran the one State of West Virginia, and even giving it centuries and an equal popula tion, who could ever expect to find that State supporting anch ao opora, such theatres, pleasure resorts, museums and art galleries, to say De thing of the palaces, surpassing in their aplon- done any of the Royal residences of France or England."
The aroma of red coflar is fatal to house moth; the aroma of black-wainnt lessor is fatal flega It is a matter of common observation that per sous angaged in the basiness of making shingles from odoriferous cypruse timber in malarial districts are rarely, if ever, affected by malarial diseases, and that persons engaged in gathering and distilling turpentine do notenffer from sithar malarial diseases or consumption. It is said that when cholera res spideals in Memphis, Tenn., perous working in leery stables were entirely exempt from it. It is afirmed that since the destruction of the clove trees on the Island of Ternate the colony has suffered from epidemic unknown before; and in times when cholera has prevailed in London and Paris those ouployed is the perfumery factories have escaped
rarages.
