man was asked what he thought

"Nonsense," he said, "Europe

they can't lind any better way.
They will semi their exhibits

"But suppose the tariff is too
high for them to introduce goods

'the tarm on works ot art is
not too high. If I remember

s San Francisco, Oct. 11. Ad
vices received per the steamship
Belgic, which arrived yesterday,
state that the revenue cruiser
Ling Font; reported having seen
near Foo Chow a large pirato junk
tiring at a peaceful trader. A gun
boat was sent out by the authori
ties and returned with eleven
prisoners, who had been captured
from the piratical craft. All these
men were beheaded. One of them
through the horrors of bis posi-
lon or from tho tortures he had
been subjected to, went raving
mail and refused to kneel before
the executioner, so the latter had
to lake "not shots" at him. and
eventually decapitated him iu

London, Oct. 11. The alleged

The emperor is well known to be
ardently desirous of regaining the
German provinces now held by
Russia, and whose inhabitants are
as much attached to tier many as
those of Alsace-Lorraine are op

ntf rview published by Culblas is

What is ii like at the bottom of
the sea in the unfathomed depths,
that is to say, five miles below the
surface of the ocean ?
If you mean to ask what is the
aspect of things on t he ocean floor
so far down, it is only possible to
reply that there is none. The
darkness of that watery abyss is as
the blackest of ink, no ray of suu
light, even when the day is at its
brightest, piercing the aqueous
gloom from above.
Even were there a light you
could hardly niako and observa
tion, inasmuch ai the pressure of
the superincumbent weight of
water is at least three toi.j to the
square inch, and would crush your
body like an eggshell in a shape
less mass.
But suppose, just for fun. that
you were able to descend five miles
to the ocean bottom at its' greatest
depth, and survey your surround
ings with the aid of some brilliant
artificial light. '
To begin with you gazo w'th
curiosity upon the ground beneath
your feet. You find that it is com
posed of a grayixh mixture of
minute shells ami mud. The shells
are those of little animals called
the rhizpods, which live near the'
surface and dying ink to the bot
tom, thus paving witti their sinal

Everywhere the floor is found

the same sort of irregularities

there valleys, and perhaps yon
come across a great level d!
But the likeness to terrestial land
scape ends wife the geographical
contour.
AN INTERMINABLE DESERT.
What most impresses ou about
this strange scene Is the frightful
lesolation. It is a desert of in
terminable extent, where nothing
rows. Not a blade or sprout of
any sort of any vegetation is to be
in-covered, lor the nmp'e reason
that there is no sunlight to sup
port vegetable life. Over the end
less expanse of plain, hill and val
ley your eye wanders fruitlessly iu
search of tree, shrub or even sea
weed. There is nothing rave the
grayish rhelly ooze.
Most dreautui of all is the silence
of the depths, absolue and un
broken by sound of any sort.
There is not even the sound of the
sea. Within live in ilea of ink-black
ocean above there is not even the
murmur of a wavelet to cheer your
awful solitude.
And vet you are not alone. The
great fishes that haunt the lowest
abysses of the ocean ferocious and
predatory beyond all other lishes,
because they are obliged to depend
wholly upon each other for iood in
the absence of vegetation, come
fearlessly to .aze at you with
enormous goggling eyes, charac
teristic of the riches of the depths.
They haye never seen man, and
are not airaid oi you. You are
rather in luck if some of them do
not attempt to eat you hi. For
instance here comes a fish recently
made known to science as the
"black swallower." It is frequent
ly accustomed to devour hshes ten
and eleven times ns big as itself,
literally ctimong over its vict.m
first with one jaw and then willi
tho other. Very often this extra
ordinary glutton of the deep dies
of indigestion in consequence of
such a meal. Now and then there
looms up before your affrighted
vision t ue lonn ot some vast
monster with which human
knowledge has no acquaintance
becaure its habitat is in the inky
floods far down out of observa
tion's reah, and it was too bi to
be caught an I drawn to the bur-
face by the dredges of II. M. S,
Uhallengcr. ror uu that any one
can tell, the ieh'.hyosaurns and
other gigantic creatures antedi

would imagine was a big eel, which

being suddenly relieved of the pres
sure, they are very apt to burst
and fly to pieces before they can be
examined. The fishermen of Ma
deira catch a fish called a "cherne"

HETHODS OF ILLUMINATION.
One of the most interesting things
you take notice ot in walking about
on tne ocean s noor, is the method
of artificial lighting employed by
very many of the fishes. You see
whole torchlight processions go by
eacn nsn actually carrying a torch
of its own, which serves the double
purpose of lighting its path and
attracting it preys. The new in
vention of lumiaous bait was an
idea applied by the so called angler
fish of the deep sea.
Here is a picture of an angler
fish which has a regular torch for
a back fin. The bulb has at the
end a phosphorescent luminosity,
and the extremities of the little
waving branches are likewise lum
inous. So the fish ought to be able
to see its way very plainly while it
looks for the victims its light is ex
I ected to a' tract. Other tish have
phosphorescent dicks on the top
of the head for the 6ame purpose,
and even rows of luminous spots
along their side.
The only olor that relieves the
gray monotony of the ocean bottom
at this great depth is supplied by
shrimp-like cruftocea of some size,
bright scarlet and others orange
yellow. There are quantities of
spiny sea urchins of innumerable
varieties, and here and there groups
of sea lilies. But these lilies,
though they like flowers on stems.
are of an animal and not of a veg
etable nature. Of mollusks there
is a profusion.
