BY COACH ABOUT ENGLAND.
Scenery of the KnglLii Ooimtr}'—Filling
Tliroiiyli the Vli).iS , -8.
I was glad to find myself in the morn
ing leaving tlif* new and uninteresting
streets of Leamington and passing out
into t!i<“ Warwick r l seated on the top
of a fast going four horse coach, bound
into the English country and toward the
old English towns of the west.
Hut Worcester and Hereford were still
iar a wav. and we had first to think of
(dir journev thither as part of our
pleasure, not as means to an end. The
• •nsation was one of dignity and superi
ority. and we. the passengers, all looked
a little self conscious, for - as is etiquette
in a town, the guard was winding clear
and merry blasts upon his horn, and
every passer by was turning to see. It
was on the high road first that the splen
did exhilaration of driving in tins way
overcame us. The day was cloudy and
rather cold; the wind blew fresh in our
faces, and the long far landscapes and
slopes and fields were hidden in low roll
ing mists, although the air near by was
clear. The country, which we could
view well over the tall hedgerows from
our high seats, looked dull, for there
were no fair shadows and patches of
sunlight to see. The weather was every
morning of this cloudy fashion, yet al-
wavs at midday the clouds broke and the
afternoon fields would be bright with sun.
Through the whole drive we met few
(Kiople upon the roads, no gentlefolk at
all, only the drivers of carts, vans and
traveling shows, and round canvas topped
millers' wagons drawn by the largest and
shaggiest of Clydesdale horses. The
rnen we passed were of a red faced type,
wearing corduroy trousers, tied tight
round the leg with a string just below
the knee, the nearest approach to the
Knickerbockers of yore. Some of the
oldest of these men touched their hats;
all stared. There was little talking done
bv any of us. Each one sat trying to
fasten these impressions of inside England
which were thronging on our minds.
The rattle of the horses’ hoofs and the
roll of the wheels filled the ear with
pleasant suggestions, and now and again
the horn wound, and there was the ex
citement of passing through one of those
villages where the people of this crowded
island live huddled together like cattle
amid squalor and beauty hard to find.
Wo saw nowhere during our journey
tlie village cottage in the beauty which it
possessed in Warwickshire. In the coun
ties of Monmouth, Gloucester and most
of Worcester the villages tire built of
stone or brick, new and more comfort
able"; here they are built of “wattle and
dab,’’or osiers and mud, as we should
say, and they have thick, brown thatched
roofs and dormer windows with bright
little panes, and black beams in the walls,
often half hid by creeping vines or white
rose bushes. Their little doors open
directly on the street, and in the lower
windows, best of all, the finest pots of i
red and white geraniums. It is astonish- ;
mg the pleasure one may feel while one j
looks at these simple houses and forgets j
the life which must be led inside. They
are large enough for two—but for ten!— ;

Mortality—Vital Statistics.
Scarcely a day passes when Dr. John
T. Nagle, deputy registrar of vital statis
tics, does not receive a bulletin or pam
phlet showing the state of public health |
in some more or less remote country. In j
return he sends information to almost j
every civilized government on earth. His ;
little office in Mott street is filled with :
choice documents, written in English, j
German, French. Portuguese. Spanish, '
Russian, Roumanian, Danish, Swedish, j
Hungarian, Italian and other tongues. ;
: Complicated tables come in avalanches
from Great Britain and her colonies in all
' quarters of the globe. A report from :
i Calcutta shows that the “Amalgamated j
busbec and tank committee'* met four [
t imes during the first quarter of the fiscal
year 188(1-7. There is a bibulous sug- j
gestion about the title of this useful hotly j
which is not diminished by the statement j
that two of their meetings were held out I
of doors.
Of all the European countries Ron- I
mania is the most industrious in the i
manufacture of statistics. She sends out j
every year dozens of volumes bound iu j

print of the government bureau winch is- j
sued it. Finland is determined that no *
one shall he. kept in doubt as to her exact ,
condition. In vast deserts of ten and
twelve syllable words is an occasional I which struts the
oasis of French, which gives a general
idea of what the Finnish statistician is
trving to get at. Private lunatic, asylums
are “yieisten sairachuoneiden lasaretti
| osastoissa, ” and public madhouses "hal-
luinhoitolaitoksissa, ’’ Official reports
from Servia are printed in letters which
had a narrow escape from being Greek.
Consonants, particularly “h” and “j.’’
are strewn with an unsparing hand
through the Swedish compilation. The
Latin names of diseases are given in con
nection with the Swedish, and ,i reader
who pays his money may take his choice.
••Tub. lijernheimeinflammation” is a
fashionable lung disease, and “fyellerigul
anskap” is delirium tremens. Protracted
drinking brings a Swede to alkoholoss-
jukdom, and a Dario to haeardevinssvg-
dom. When a Stockholm citizen suc
cumbs to old aye the doctor writes
“ulderdonisaptyuing” on the death cer
tificate, and everybody knows what the
trouble was. Neatly printed and volumin-
I ous reports come from Central and South
America, Venezuela, Colombia and the
: Argentine Republic issue documents in
sonorous Spanish. -Little Guatemala’s
| official pamphlets have gorgeous red bor
ders.
The unspeakable Turk has a soul above
figures, and never takes the pains to find
out the sanitary condition of his empire.
There is a story of a United States consul
in a Turkish town who asked the local
pasha for estimates of the population.
Ill a characteristic reply, beginning “Oh.
my lamb!"’ the pasha said that he had
dwelt for forty years in the city, yet ho
had . ever counted the houses over the
people that dwelt therein. He failed to
see why any man should seek after infor
mation not vouchsafed by the wisdom of
Allah.
A I’rettv Description of the Cocoanut’*
(irouth—l'nluading a Vessel.
I have found a queer crowd over at a
Brooklyn pier where a cargo of cocoa-
nuts was being unloaded. The largest of
these nuts are shipped here from Aspin-
wall and Cartagena, but the smaller and
liner variety is brought from Cuba and
Poi'to Rico. A steamer’s cargo will
count out from 50,000 to 200,000. I can
never see one of those almost human
faced cocoanuts that I do not live over
again my idyllic wanderings in Cuba
with stately Don Miguel, and hear hix
pretty description, in the old Luyano
posada. of how the cocoanut propagates
itself.
“These very eyes.” said the Don. “are
as much the outlook of the coccamit s
perpetual life as men's eyes are the win
dows of their souls. Through these eyes j
the new tree breaks to the sun. The ovule :
is a slender, cone shaped mass in the case j
at the big end of the fruit. Its sustenta-
tion comes from the rich, milky meat
about it, from which it draws its power
as it forces its way to the light through
one of these strange eyes, and in what
ever direction it may be pointed it then
steers straight for the sky. Innumerable
delicate thread like roots till the nut and
feed upon the mother heart, until the
nutrition is exhausted, when the power
ful shell parts like an egg shell from
young chicken, and the
outreaching roots
soon as this
tender shoot- has reached the air,
leaves form in diminutive represen
tation of the pinnate leaves of j
the full grown tree, which sometimes j
reaches a height of seventy feet, though ;
its myriads of roots seldom exceed the i
size of your lead pencil. Within four or
five years fruit is borne, and is continued !
forty or fifty vein's in never failing and j
increasingly bountiful supply, clustered j
up there at the top of the trees a* if ;
hiding beneath their plume like tufts of :
foliage. ’'
These cargoes of cocoanuts are mi- !
loaded by the same desperate class that j
work in the holds of banana vessels, j
They are passed up from below in cas- j
kets. each containing from twenty to I
thirty nuts. On deck they are coiuiied
and assorted into t wo grades. They are
then sacked on deck. 100 first grade and
125 second grade nuts to each sack, and
immediately carted away. Frequently
half the cargo is spoiled from heat; or in
a rough voyage the terrific pounding
i given the nuts ruins many, and ny the
j time they are landed they are in a rottgig
! condition. The purchasers of the unin
jured cocoanuts get the "sick." or
i “she,” nuts, as the vernacular of the
j trade terms them, for nothing. An i in
i these is sometimes found the larger pioiit.

A legacy, Not » I-avrsuit.
A man may now, if he is careful and
wise in his choice of a company, insure
lus life, or. if insured, he may have the
temerity to die, without a fairly grounded
expectation of leaving liis family a law 1
suit for a legacy. He may also bo rea
sonably sure that he is not placing h:? ;
own reputation (after he is unable to de
fend it) at the mercy of a powerful cor
poration intent upon saving its funds from
the inroads of a just debt. And I ques
tion if it is too much to say that, given ;
enough money, a strong motive and a
powerful corporation on the one hand
and only a sorrowing family on the other,
no man ever lived or died whose reputa
tion could not be blackened beyond re
pair. after he was himself unable to ex
plain or refute seeming irregularities of
conduct or dishonest}' of motive. No
man’s character is invulnerable, and no
man’s reputation can afford the strain or
test of such a contest. Millions of dollars
have been withheld from rightful heirs ,
by threats of an exposure—the more j
vague the more frightful—of the unsus- ;
pected crimes or misdeeds of the beloved j
dead.
Thousands of cases never known to the
public have been "compromised” and i
hundreds of heart aches and unjust sus
picions and fears about the dead, which
can never be corrected, are aroused in j
sorrowing but loving breasts by this ;
method of doing "business." It is. of
course, of the utmost importance that,
every precaution be taken hv life insur
ance companies to protect the funds held j
by them in trust for others against fraud i
and trickery. But with ihe agent. 1 he ex
amining physician, the medical directors
and the inspectors, ali employed by and
answerable to the company represented, j
if fraud is committed in getting into the
company, one or all of these paid officers ;
must almost of necessity be parly to that :
fraud. With all these safeguards in the ;
hands of the company, if a man is ac- j
cepted as a "good risk.” if lie pay? his
premiums, surely his family has the right ;
to expect a legacy and not a lawsuit nor ;
a “compromise” which must cast re
proach on the dead.—Popular Science
Monthly.
Florence nnd Hi* Flogs.
The genial and popular actor. W. J.
Fiorence, who was in the Restigouche
country killing salmon as usual this sum
mer, had an experience with flags which
was for a time quite exciting. Iu front
of Florence’s camp on the Rcstigouche
two tall flag poles were set up, and
English and American flags were* kept
living. The poles were cut by the- Indian
guide without any special attention
being paid to their size by Mr. Fiorence.
One day a party of Englishmen and
Canadians came down the river In a boat
when Mr. Florence was absent from tin-
camp and only an oid Indian in charge.

The Cnpit;«1 of Mexico.
’ The city of Mexico, capital of the re
public. with a population of about 250.-
d00. as is well known, is situated on
ground that was formerly an island in
Lake Texeoeo. The name is derived
from Mexitli. the.Aztec war god. In
brief, ihe story of its origin runs thus: i Henry, treating of the health of Iclian
ports from China and Japan were printed
in the vernacular. Nov,* those interest
ing countries send to barbarian lands
hard facts in good English. The-Celestial
empire shows a weakness for brilliant
yellowy covers, like those of an old time
dime novel. But the medical reports of
the Chinese cities, garnished with mete
orological tables and temperature charts
that look like maj of a yacht race, con
tain matter more interesting than any
thing in yellow covered Action. Dr. A.
The Aztecs, while wandering about tho
country, met rival tribe, the (’oilmans; ;

oracle had commanded them not to found
a city until they had come to a spot
where an eagle should lie seen standing on j
a rock. They shortly after beheld, in
their wanderings, an eagle perched on a I
cactus growing out of a rock; hence they j
founded a city, calling it Tenochtitlan— j
meaning, “cactus upon a rock.” Under
this name it was the capital of the old
empire of Ar.ahuae. Hence on the nn-
tional flag, as also on some of the coins, j
will be seen the device of an eagle with a j
serpent in its beak, perched on a cactus
protruding from a rook. The city has an '
elevation of 7.400 feet above sea level,
and a mean temperature of 60 deg. Fahr.
