The largest railway station in the world is the terminus station of the Peninsular railway at Bombay, India, ;,t which an army of workmen Were 'a work for ten years at miserable 'vvajres. It cost" 19,000,000 all the suae, however.

T I the supreme court. lu France it is proposed to have a law prohibiting the employment of inn s and girls at night. Petitions for .the passage of such a. law are being1 signed all over the country. This is opposed by many of the working class es, who complain that it would dimin ish the family income so that some of then could not support their children. At one of the cross roads in Brazil, ii idol carved from the wood of an orange tree was placed for the Indians to worship. On one occasion it was noticed that an old red man omitted to perform- this act of obeisance.' On be ing commanded to kneel he stubborn ly replied: "No; I knew-him; when he was an orange tree." Mr. J. William Fosdick, a young ar-. list of New York, has faken up sketch ing with red hot pokers, and some of Ins pictures are masterly. Thelate T. Ixill Hughes, of Boston, was a . profi cient in this art forty years ago, and several of his productions are held to- uay in-. high repute. w e assemble parliaments and coun ts to have the benefit of their col eetod wisdom; but we necessarily have, at the same time, the inconven iences of their collected passions, pre judices and private interests.
