HE WAS A STAYER. Wasn't Going to De Scared Off a Volcano ly a Mere Krnpllmi. Advices by the Australian steamship Miowera give newHthutamulventurous young Englishman named Carr, who, Jt is quite possible, maybe Lieut. Scton Karr, the mbst adventurous mountain climber and pioneer of the Untich Geo rahiccl &ociety, narroviy c&.-npud de struction in a whirlwind of steam, cin ders and atones preceding the dclupe of lava emitted by old Rnapehu, New Zealand's famous volcano. He had started, says the St. Louis Globe-Democrat, with two guides and provisions for ten days' exploration ai the five peaks forming the crest of Ruapehu and fencing its famous crater lake. He got half way up the moun tain side, when hut progrens was great ly retarded by a fresh fall of snow, a most unusual thing at this beason. From twenty-eight degrees the mer cury rose within four hours to seventy six degrees, the snow disappeared and earthquakes added their rumblings in the heart of the mountains to swell tho mysterious feature of the night. Tho guides hourly became more uneasy and entreated Carr to break camp und de scend before the eruption, which they anticipated would overwhelm them. "You think the mountain will givo fireworks for our benellt, do you'.'" was Carr's comment. "This ii glorious; wo will not disappoint old Ruapehu of his auuicncc. But the guides were not so enthusi astic, and finally announced that they were going whether ho would or not. "Very good," wusCurr's reply, "I will stay." Then he paid them their wages for the portion of tho trip only that they had actually performed. They hastily retraced their steps, and the very next day showers of mud, which invariably precede active eruptions, commenced. The guides decided that their lato employer must bo overwhelmed, and jrreat was their surprise two days later to be rejoined by him at tbo base of the mountain. He was scalded from head to foot; hia left arm won broken, and there were bruises and cuts on overy part of his JIUi braises and cuts on overy part of hk foot, Cincinnati Kmiulrer. l body where he had boon struck by stones which rained from the mountain top. Hardly had the party reconnected when the eruption proper commenced, aud for days tho sight was a magniD j cent though awful one. Unarn.hu is nino thousand odd feet high, and one of the most rugged and picturesque mountalus in the Southern hou. 1 After the eruption Carr ascended on 1 the west side, which had hardly been affected at all, owing to continued wind from that quarter, and it has been found that the famous crater lake had entirely disappeared, having been lit erally blown out and replaced by a bubbling field of lava, the depth of which cannot be estimated. OVERRULED BY THEIR WIVES. A .' When' All the .InKtlcwi of the Su preme Court Changed Their Mlnclt. It was a mutter of some surprise that Justice Shiras, of the United .States su preme court, should have ehauged his mind within a few weeks upon a matter of law, but it is not many months since the whole court changed their mind on such a matter, and that in the course of a few days. The cum? before the court, says the Xew York Sun, was one arising out of a customs decision at this port, and the counsel arguing against the decision of the custom house was a New York law yer, then for the first time before the supreme court. The case turned main ly upon the question whether an article of importation should or should not be classed as a sauce. The custom house had called it a wiuce and taxed it ac cordingly. The government maintained this contention, and, of course, the New York lawyer sought to show that the article should not be classed as a sauce. - When the supreme court came to con sult upon the case their unanimous opinion was favorable to the contention of the government, and oue of the ju tices was instructed to prepare a de cision in favor of the custom house. The justice, on returning home, told his wife of the ease, and indicated the ground of the decision; whereupon the lady told him in plain words that the justices of the supreme .court did not know what they were talking about, and had agreed upon an unjust deci sion. The lady was entirely clear that the article in dispute could not proper ly be called a sauce, and openly ridi culed the court. The perplexed justice, instead of pre paring the decision in accordance with the instructions of his brethren, did nothing in the matter, but at the next opportunity unfolded to the other jus tices his wife's view of the matter, and asked them to seek domestic counsel on the case and report at the next con sultation of the court. When that con sultation came round the justices, hav ing taken feminine counsel, all report ed against the original view that the article involved in the case should be classed as a sauce, and accordingly the justice originally charged with the task of preparing a decision in favor of the government was now instructed to pre pare one in faror.-of the New York law yer's client. It thus happened that the lawyer won his first case before the su preme court because the wives of the justices knew more than the court it self. CALIFORNIA UNDER-SPAIN. Trade Ilentrictlon Which Were Deadly to the Ynng Colonic. England was a careless parent Her children, neglected by the mother ccun try, forced to oarn their own living while yet young, though having thus a sorry youth, still early developed strength, energy and ambition to do for themselves, and be free from parental rule. Spain, though she even fed and elothed her colonists, kept them strictly dependent upon her for the smallest as well as the greatest needs, discouraging freedom of thought as well as action, governing by a mass of rules to which was exacted implicit obedience. She thus kept a stroug hold upon her most remote settle ments, which rendered it ditlicult, al most impossible, for the colouists to develop into independent citizenhood. Spanish trade restrictions were daadly to the young colonies, and at length almost suicidal to the parent land. No trade was allowed with other coun tries, and only with Spain herself through the one port of Seville, where it was rigidly inspected by the "house of trade" that board of regulators with the narrowest ideas and instruc tions. All commerce had to be carried in Spanish vessels, so why should the settlers build ships? Trade between sister colonies was forbidden, and no foreign vessel could enter a harbor of a Spauish possession, or land a man without carrying a special permit. To prevent colonists trading with foreign ers, death and forfeiture of property were the penalties. To strengthen further her peculiar trade policy, Spain forbade the cultivation in the colonies of such raw products as came into di rect competition with home industries. The culture of hemp, tobacco, olives, grapes in vineynrd, and many other ar ticles, came under this Hat. Overland Monthly. Mexican Ilurlaln. The Mexicans hav a queer way o' burying the dead.
