Watery Cities. The Philadelphia "Times" gives descriptions of three of tho most noted of the cities located on the edge of ?bo s'-? or in watery pisces ie the follow iog: The city of Ghent, io Bedlam, is built on twenty-six islau." i. These islands are Connected with eaoh other by eighty bridges. Tho-city bas three hundred etteeta and thirty publio equaree. It SB ?noted for being the birthplace of Charles V. sod of John of Gaunt, whom Shakespeare called "time-honored Lancaster;" and was the scene of tho pacification of Ghent, Xov. 8, 1576, and of several insurrec tion?, sieges and executions of well known personages. It is associated w?th American history by tho treaty made there Dec. 24,1814, terminating thc second war between England and the United States, known a? the wsr of 1812. Amsterdam, in Holland, is built on pilos driven far below the water into the earth. Tho city is intersected by many canals, which are spanned by nearly three hundred bridges, and re sembles Venice in thc mingling of land und waler, though it.is considerably larger than that city. The canals di vide thc city, which is about ten miles ia circumference, into ninety islands. The city of Venice is built on eigh ty islets, which are connected by near ly four hundred bridges. Canals serve for streets in Venice, and boats, call ed gondolas, for carriages. The bridges are, as a rule, very steep, rising con siderably in tho middle, bat have easy steps. The circumference of the oity is about eight miles. Thc Venetians joined tho Lombard league against the German emperor, and in 1177 gainod a jjreat victory, in defense of Pope Al exander III; over tho fleet of war ves sels headed by Otto, son of Fre ?..io barbarossa. In gratitude for tin i vic tory ihe Pope gavo tho dogo Ziani a ri eg, and instituted the world-famous ceremony of "Vonice marrying the Adriatic Sea." In this ceremony the doge, as the chief ruler of Venice used to be termed, with appropriate rites dropped a ring into the sea every year io recognition of the wealth and trado carried to Venice by the Adriatio. -- Q - - Mr. Lurker-"Excuse me, oMiss Snapper, but I have long Bought this opportunity."

It is tho general impression outside of the circle of bia friends and neigh bora, that Jefferson Dav! a waa to the very last an un rc cona true ted rebel, bitterly sectional and unfriendly to the national government. Thia was very far from hoing |he ease. The ex-Confederate president was somcwb at impulsive and irritable, but he was not a hater of any section, nor did he encourage others to defy or ignore the federal authorities. On the contrary, he was always making new friends among northern ers, and he looked.forward to a bright future for tho South under the old flag. Naturally sensitive and proud, he did not embrace favorable opportu nities for the publie expression of his viows, preforriog rather to be misun derstood than to have it thought that ! he was courting the good win of the conquerors. In the spring of 1888 a Democratic convention met in Mississippi Cityand considerable ill-feeling existed between two factions. Ooo of tho candidates for coDgreBS before the oonvention was a Northern man, and thr old sectional prejudice had come to thc front to de feat his nomination. At the urgent request of tho dele gates, Mr. Davis appeared before them i and delivered the last public speech of his life. Ile threw the weight of his influence to tho Northern candidate, securicg<his nomination, and in his concluding remarks ho said : ''Tho pastis dead; let it bury its dead, its hopes and -its inspirations; before you lies tho future-a future full of golden promises; a future of recompense for honorable performance; a future of expanding national glory, beforo which all thc world shall stand amazed. Let me beseech you to lay aside all rancor, all bitter sectional feeling, and to take your places in the rank.-'of those who will bring about a consummation devoutly to bc wished a reunited country."* This speech gives us a glimpse of tho real Jefferson Davis-the states man who saw thc folly of sulking aud mourning over tho dead issues of a lost oausc when it was possible for thc loyal South to regain in tho union ev erything that she had lobt, with the exception of her old institution of slavery. I The Confederate leader eras a mao of fine sense and lofty motives. Ile ! had fought for the stars and stripes iu thc Mexican war, and when the flag again waved over his native South he felt that it was bis duty to urge the young men around him to be ready at all times to uphold and d?fendit. With prophetic vision, this old man, on tho verge of tho grave, saw before him "a future of expanding national glory." Ho.forefaw the world standing'aniaz ed at the speotaole of the triumphant arts and arms of our reunited country, and be begged the young men of the South to "lay asido all bitter sectional feeling," so that they might share the glory of ibo golden future, Since that speech the spirit of sec tionalism has been alternately dor mant and active. Eloquent and patri otic leaders have fought it, bot the years rolled by and the same old bad feeling between thc North and the South made itself felt from time to time. I Some good men began to fear that sectionalism would never die. They despaired of the republic. Suddenly an unexpected inoident plunged us ?ot? ? wa? wiih Spain. It lasted only a little over three months, but in that short period the last ves tige of sectionalism was wiped out and destroyed. Hosts of men a thousand miles apart who had been holding aloof and r is trusting, if not hating ono another, rushed to thp front side by side ina generous rivalry to see which section should do tho harvest and the best fighting for Old Glory. In a very few weeks millions Of peo ple, North and South, wcro singing tho praises of Dewey, Shafter, Schley, Sampson, Bagley, Hobson, Wheeler and many others-hailing them as heroes and patriots, without once ask ing whence they came. The revival of gennie Americanism has swept all opposition before it, aud the demagogues who have heretofore made sectionalism thoir sole stock in trade, are now wondering where they can find a substitute. They begin to fear that their oconpation is gone. The bright dream of the Confeder ate president has been realised, and in a way that weald have thrilled his soldier heart with that stern joy which only a warrior can feel. The reunited country baa leaped into exiatenoo through the flame of smoke and battle, and in this eonfet?t with a foreign fee the men of the North and the men of the South have stood shoulder to ?u??i?er ?ike a band of brothers. Already, in the language of Mr. Da vis, "the world stands amased before our future Of expanding 'national glory:*' The great republic of the west has bumbled the red and yellow flag pf old Spain and has forever shattered her power. Tho vasi colonial possessions of the vanquished ere now among the apilo of wer, end the victors may seise ead hold the fairest and richest is lands of the world, scattered over the globe from thc Weat ladies to the Philippines. Vt iou mo? have said all along that sectionalism would never entirely dis appear until the North and South marched ahor'der to shoulder under the old ?ag against a foreign foe, and At-_._?.. viivjf nuiD ligUV. Men of blood and iron tore the sec tions apart in the old days, and now our new men of blood and Jron have brought them together again, proving to the world at last that this is one country, with ono flag and one destiny. - Wallace P. Heed, in Atlanta Daily Newe. Rolled Down a Mountain in the Firebox. ''Speaking about hauling 'dead' lo comotives across tb? country," said a western railroad man, "recalls tomo a story about ono of them that happened several years ago, when I was young in this business. A big engine was being hauled across the country for the Denver and Rio Grande Company from the Danforth works in Paterson. It was in charge of one of their best men, a fellow who always had his wits about h if- and who had been at tho business for a number of years. The train in which this locomotive was be ing hauled was going around ono of those hoavy curves on the edge of a cannon that abound on the mountain roads of the west. Something went wrong-a rail spread, I beliove-and this ohap, who was keeping a good lookout ahead, saw that a wreck was imminent. There was no chance for him to jump, for there was an almost perpendicular lot of rocks on one side and adeep canon on thc other. A jump either way meant sure death. Quick as a flash ho saw the one way to escape, and he went for it, hoping for the best and that he might save his life, even at thc cost of a few broken bones. He opened the door of the firebox, crawled in, pulled the door to, and then prayed more fervently than he ever did bo foro for salvation. He got in the box just in time. There Was an awful ornsh and then a sickening sensation of being hurled through space. He dug his fingers into the ironwork on tho insido of thc door of tho firebox and braced himself as best ho could against the shock of tho bumps he iras getting as thc locomotive bound ed down tho side ofthat caron. That trip down until 'JO struck terra firma and was knocked insensible, he said, was tho most terrific and heart dis turbing he had ever had. When he I r n cy rv ? r? *\ A Ti i a canana V> rx f()v??/J V\% tnr\ ogl P penned in a lot of wreckage, but for tunately for him, the force-of the fall had thrown open tho door of tho fire box. Sore from head to foot from the bruises he had received, blecdin^ from a few trifling wounds but with all his limbs safe and in working order, bc managed to get out of'the wreck, to find himself tho only living thing around there. The wreckage of thc train was completo and in it were the j bodies of three or four dead trainmen. It waB aeveral hours, it seemed to him like days, before any of the railroad employees showed up to seo what could be saved from the wreck. They looked on him aa a ghost when they came upon him and conld hardly be lieve tho evidonoe of their own eyes that he had gone through that wreck and escaped with his life. But he satisfied them that he was very muoh alive and was also hungry and thirsty. That wreok waa enough for the engi neer and he never again went out in charge of a 'dead' locomotive-Nexo York I'imes.
