"BmoklDg," Mr. J. Vatigban Barling reviews
the arguments against the u of tobaoco, ex
trading from the most ot them their whole
pith and strength. He onclu'les as follows:

Professor Scheie de Vere's article on "Gar
Globe, in 1&G8," is exceedingly iuteresting,
embracing a clear review of the state of the
world and the progress which, has recently
been made in its development. Concerning
Australia, the writer says:
"Australia, the last of the continents, bida
fair to outstrip her older sisters id the ratio of
progress. The colouics are growtns' at a rapid
rute, especially Victoria and Sutitii Australia,
but n oie particularly Qu'erHuuil, iho youngest
ot all, which neve) thli-s boas'.? already ol her

The Hon, Auiasa Walkwr contributes a valu
able article on thd "Claims of the Bondhold
eiS," in which he preseuts the arguments
against the l'endletonian theory of repudia
tion in a strong light. In concluding, he
says:
"Not to dwell lorcr on fie s inject, we
briefly recapitulate the pi-ticial nuK of re
puu atiuu by inuudatiLg tue couulry wuh paper
money.
'The national banks woul 1 receive for their

the iharenol.lers. ami wind up their ait nrs;
they would lo lof ger po:es e.ther capital or

"Savinps banks, compe'l-"l to receive lefjal
tenders lor all their public securities and pri
vate loans, would have no: Inn? lelt with which
to pav oil their depositors b.it the dishonored
prom 6es ol a dishonored Kovernment.
'"Insurauce compauies ol every kind would
share the fate o: the banks, lor their entire
capital con-ists of bonds and other securities,
that would be paid oil iu worthless paper.
"Literary Hnd charitable fuuds would exist
only in name. And what would be a greater
outrage than all these put together the wnole
indebtedness ot the nation as between mnn and
man, all mortgages aod promises to pay money,
would be diseLaiped in tbe legal tenders.
Bverythina in the shape of credit, public aud
private, would be obliterated, and uoiuing lelt
but the aloretaid nineteen hundred millions of

tlieir welcht upon tbe scales.
'II ihat be a cousiiuiuia'ion devoutly to be
witLed, Coneress has only to authorize the
issue of the necessary amount of irredeemable
promises."
In addition to these articles there are seve
ral stories and sketches of interest, and two
or three very good poems.
Kau de Cologne.
A correspondent of the Boston Journal writes
from Cologne:
"There is a strange contrast between the
natural and the artuicial periume of cologne.
The dedicate toilet article produced here and
lor bich thp city is so la nous, steins to have
absorbed ad the pleasant features of tbe town
through the centuries sinse it has been manu
factured. The lady who wets her lace and
handkerchief with it laiagiues that tbe city
irom whence it came must needs b a de Igbtful
plate; V at Hu:ust have been distilled in a Und
where flowers con'ir.uatly bl on, aud where ihe
air is tilled with little short ot mcen-e. She
loreets that good may sometimes come of ev.l.
"Orieinaily there wiib but one manufacturer

who wss the orimn d U veuiov, in 170U. It soou

and in several of them pot favorable
verdicts, but could never succeed in driving
the spurious article out of market. The
jimouut oi this preparation yearly shipped from
Cologne Is astonisblne; it forms a larae part of
the toBin eree of the city. The Old home srpins
to have got rich out of its manufacture, not
w thstauding th flooding of the mamet by the
new establish niwnts, which are themselves on
the hieh road to ("ttuue. Purchaiers of the
'Eau de ( oloene' should eiamine the article
rareiully to see that they are not swindled.

whether the bottles they sell are the real maoi

as they all do. 'Be sure and buy only the

Tbe foreign corrcpondent ot the Iowa Va t
Et rjtfiter writes from Heidelberg on the reception
01 tbcDsot the Erie diststet :
Nearly all the railroads In Oermany hftve
double tracks, thus avoiding one very trui ful
source ol accidents collisions. Tin traveller
me ets many trams daily, paisinir them at all
points. And the most ltuid regulations re
en orced relative to the pausing ol slow Ireisht
or accommodation trams by express trains.
A marked deviation from tbe time-table is
quite sullicient to deprive the engineer or con
ductor ot tile situatlou. The velocl y of train 1s
considerably less than in the United States. This
nrranuemeiit makes it much ea-icr to run c-u
time than is the ci.se with a la-ter time-iable.
Iu cnee tbe truiu is a vny tew moments behiud
time a very rare occurrence it it an easy
matter to increase the spred a little, and witu
ont ilaueer. The moderate tiaie-taole al-o
avoids all those accidents that so frequently
ccur on account of our break-neck rate of
motion.
Another striking featore is the care with
which railroad are constructed. The roads
aie graded with the greatest cate. Upon the
sidet ot embankments grass is cultivated, aud
thus the wsBbing away of the truck; Is pre
vented, and its solidity completely preserve I.
Trees re also planted upon such places for the
same purpose. The same precautious are ob
sfrved in the case of deep cuts 10 prevent the
rolling down of soil or rocks. Ia m an v places
embankments are made of stone. Bridals are
almost universally made of the same substan
tial material. I do not recollect seeing a rail
road bridge constructed of the timber frame
work so commoD in our land.
Laree rivers are spanned by stone arches,
with foundations deeply laid, and which look
as if they would stand the wear of ages. The
rails are rirrnly lastened together at the ends by
means of side pieces oud screws, thus making
the points of junction uear'y pa strong as toe
rail itself. The utmost care is taKen In the se
lection of the ties aud rails. No article of an
inferior quality is admitted, and when a lie
b gins to show sitns of decav, or a rail becomes
a little worn, it is immediately removed, aud its
place supplied by a new one. I have seen ties
mid rails removed here thai would no considered
good lor several years' service at home, at least
lb too nisnv cases.
A preni number of hands are constantly cm
ployed to keep the road in order. At the dis
tance ol about every halt mile oDe sees a neat
but small brick or stone house, in wbiuh. lives
tbe employe. He always stands in frontothis
uoor upon the approach of tiie train, and sig
nuls to ihe euc'iieer that all is right. Ele must
walk his hii't mile immediately atterthe d issacre
of n tram, and must at once repair the slightest
daumce wuich tne irack mav have suffered. The
sinul' ex'eut ot bis beat makes it eay lor him
to do this very thoroughly. Every mile ol
a Gfiiman railroad is watched with nearly
cr quite as much care as our drawbridges,
and in numy cases wita even tU'ir,
wit at care is tukeu to prevent accidents at
def ots. iu tbe entrance and exit ol pa-;?eti2ers.
No passenger is pei milted to open the door ol
the car during the progress ot the train, or even
upon its arrival at the depot. lie must wait
nnt, I the door is thiown open by the conductor.
W it hull these and tminv oti;er precautious it
is not sin prising that accidents occur so seldom
n this country.
