A Chat About Volcanoes. Volcanoes, or burning mountains, as they aro sometimes calico, are elevations on thc surface of the earth, which act as chimneys for the great lires (h ep under ground. There are nearly three hun dred at present which arc bot and smok ing mountains. The great crater, nr opening, is generally near thc summit. As volcanoes are not always active, thc crater sometimes becomes dead, and i; filled with great masses of cold black lava. Mountains have been known to remain in this quiet ?tate for centuries, when suddenly noises like thunder aie heard, and the'erater begins to throw up boiling lava and bot ashes ami smoke. A volcano in eruption is one of thc grandest sights ?ti nature. Vast quanti ties Of heated matter are (brown hun dmls of feet in the air. great bombs ex plode with terrille noise, and at night the sky appears like a sheet of Hume. Tho volcanoes of North America are all situait d near thc Pacific coast, There arc none of them very active at pi.-n.t. Mount Kai nt lilias, which stand-on lix boundary of A'a-ka and British Ameiicn is a vole 'lie peak nearly iy,0u0 feet above the velofthesen. lt is the high est point in the Northern half ol' lb? Western continent. Popocatepetl, which ? -s 11 : ? next high est, is less than 18,000 feet, it is the largest volcano in Mexico, ai d although it is crowned with snow ?ll thc year, Us crater is still very bot, and all lite snow which tails inside (d'the great hob' II elti DH snnri as it touches the wt.; . fa tn black lava. The last great < uptiou u Popocatepetl was two hundred ami coleen years ago, but ai late at I :.' i. would now and then throw up iii ri and small stones. Now nothing ii-1- freu tho cracks and crevices of the crater btr. j little spirals of hot vapor, which iincl j like a burning sulphur match. The whole crater of Popocatepetl is filled bo neath thc surface with beautiful yellow sulphur, Deep boles have been dug there, like wells, and Indians go down to gather thc sulphur, which is carrie .! dowi thc mountain and Hold. Thc air is so hot under ground in the crater lhal lin Indians can not slay long, and they wear big wooden shoes to keep their feet fr un becoming blistered. Tko peak of Orizaba is another ramon.' volcano ol' Mexico, almost a> high a Popocatepetl, lt has not been in live foi more than three hundred year?. Now ?I is very cold, and the great valley ol it. crater is filled with ice and snow. Thc highest volcano in thc world i Sahuma, III Hull vin, which ri.-e* u< feet above thc sea; but the largest crater is that of Mauna Loa, one of thu (treat volcanoes of Hawaii, in thu .Sandwich Islands. Mauna Loa, has two craters, ono near thc summit, about Ll.OUt) feel high, and the large one, which i-> called anea, about il,(ii)O Icet lower down the mountain slope. The great lower crater is nearly eight miles around, and about eight hundred feet deep. Thc sides arc steep and rocky, but there is a zigzag path by which people go down to sic the groat biko ol' liquid lire at thc bottom. Thc wind on the mountain is very cool and sometimes it hardens the surface (d' thc lake so thal it appears like, a creal plain of black earth, just ns the cold air in winbr forms a coating nf ?ce oil the rivers ami ponds. Hut the lire is under neath the black crust, just as tho water is under the ice, and it is constantly breaking out into little fiery lakes, which, na the heat increases, overflow the whole bottom of the crater and form a great boiling mass. Mauna Loa is full of strange rumbling npinos like thunder. .Sevrai times great fissures have suddenly opened in the mountain side, from which fountains of fiery lava liavo sprung several hundred feet high, and, in falling, formed rivers o/ fire which poured down into tho sen. These streams of hot lava which burst from volcanoes sometimes come so sud denly that whole villages neat the moun tain are swept nwny in au instant, before thc inhabitants can escape. C?rcat clouds of hot ashes are often thrown from the crater, which cover the plain around the mountain many feet deep, burying all tho cities and towns, together with their inhabitants. In LS;i5 tho volcano of Cosequinn iu Nicaragua throw out such vast quantities ol' ashes and powdered Btouo that the air was filled with them for hundreds of miles away. The surface of the ocean was HO thickly covered that ships sailed with difficulty, nod in tho is'i?ud of Jamaica, eight hundred miles from Co.-equimi, oshea foil on the fields. Tho people who lived near the mountain rnn wildly in all directions in search "ol' a place of safety, and it is said they were joined in their Hight by hun.Ired, ol monkeys, and by tigers "and other wild beasts, whore savage nature was com pletely subdued by fright. The largest volcano in Europe is Mount -fl'tna, which stands in thc Island of Sicily in tho Mediterranean Sen. It is nearly ll'OOO feet high. It has always been a very active volcano. A little more than two hundred years ago a stream of boiling lava poured d >wn (rom its cra ter, and completely destroyed fourteen large towns. Mount Vesuvius, which stands on the sboro of thc Hay. of Naples, is also imo of tho most active volcanoes of modern times. It has a very curious history. At tho time of the birth of Christ the whole mountain, which ?sonly about four thou sand i*e> high, WHS. covered with forest*. Tho ncople'called it thc "Burnt Moun tain, because they knew from the old crater that it had been a volcano at some time, although it hud never been known to smoke, and even the crater was a greeu valley full of tiees. About sixty-three years ofter the birth of Christ tho cities near Vesuvius were Btartled by an earthquake, and sixteen years later the whole Southern half of ibo mountain bur??t with a terrible explosion, and a vast cloud of bot ashes sprang forth, which covered the country tn n great depth for miles around, It was at this time that the beautiful cities of Pompeii and Herculaneum w*ro de stroyed. They wcro buried in the vol canic ashes so suddenly that very few of the inhabitants escaped. Even tu? high est houses were covered, and nothing could bo seen but a great bare plain of volcanic matter. Centuries passed away, and the buried cities were lorgotlen, un til in 1748 some workmen who ?.ere dig ing a well discovered remains ni ancient nildlngs. Now a large part of these old cities has been dug out, and many won derful relics of their former inhabitants have been discovered. Since that time Vesuvius has often thrown out lava and ashes and flame. At one period lt was dead aud ?till for five, hundred years; then it began once {pore to thunder and tremble, and -t\w smoke and flame are often seen rising from the crater. Many, of tho islands in thc Atlantic and Pacific oceans contain lofty volca noes^ On the island of Nippon in Japan is a famous volcano called Fusiyama. It is 14,000 feet high, and. has often thrown out quantities of .'.wa. The Jap anese, look upon it as a BRcrcd moun tain, and their native artists are fond of darwing ita picture. On Japanese fans . and boxes sod screens the rado outline of a mountain -is often seen combined with Other .deoigns.-Harper's Yoimg People. - Tho election of John G. O'Brien aa chairman of the Republican Commit tee- of New York is a decided victory for Arthur, and indicate? that he will have practically, thc entire vote of the .eily jn thoState Convention'for the election "of delegates to/Chicago. It is a long step toward sectlflbir a majority of the ib'e gallon; 'T$e. fightwas sharp and bitter, .Jl\Q*Brien won by a. decided majority. Practical Sympathy* This is n very cold world, and mos! people need sympathy. It was this feb low-feeling that was shown in the rocky defile between Jerusalem and Jerico in Scripture time. There lay a man whe had bren set on by bandits, and in strug gling lo keen bis property he had been pounded and stabbed, and left tor tlcad, A pric.-d canto by, and looked on him and said within himself : ''Why, there's i niau lint on his back ; guess he IU J-I have got hurt. 1 wonder what is th< matter with him. But I must hurry ti to the temple to !o? k alter the sacrifi?es Go along, you beast, an 1 carry me up ti. my temple duties." A Levite cullie dost up to the unfortunate, und looked at him and >aid : " There is a gash on his fore head-what a pity ! There is a stab un der his arm-what a pity! 1)*:"' mi' his clothes are lorn oil' ol' him -what J pity ! Hut I must he going for I lead th? choir in the tempi? service.

Two of the handsomest ami brightest young men tiial have grown up in the capital city of Kentucky since the war were Thomas Criili-mh-n, grand son of the great and good John J.

In a word, they painted the town a sunset-red, and tinnily made it too bot to hold them. Arnold drifted West and became the prince of thc cowboys. Crit tenden went lo Louisville and took lead ership among his bar room broilers.
