IN A FAMOUS CATHEDRAL -
Views1 From tho Upper Regions of St.

The famous whispering gallery of
, Piuii'n cathedral. London. Is reach
ed by a (light of twenty steps from the
library. This nailery, which is uboiu
210 feet above the cathedral tloor, la
noted for n curious echo and is so
named because a whisper uttered near
the wall on one side.of it Js distinctly
limiiiiie to a norson standing on the
other side, a distance of 10S feet in a
straight lino,
it rnm tiiia nnint it cood view is ob
tained of the church Interior, the tes
scllntcd pavement of which looks like
a minute chessboard, but It is liable
to cause giddiness to any one not used
to heights It also commands, tno
best view of Thornhill's paintings nnd
of the cnthedral generally.
From the whispering gallery 118
steps lead up to tho stone gallery, an
nntnr iffillerv with a stone nnninct
running round the base of the dome.

8hlpWreck and Courts Martial.
The rnstotn of Onldltig courts martial
In the Hrliish navy after every case of
shipwreck has a curious origin. In
17-11 tlie Wnger. one of Commodore
Alisons vessels, was' wrecked olf the
coast of Chile, most of tho crow being
saved. The men and some or the Jun
ior olllcers held that they were no
longer amenable to discipline because
their pay ceased with the wreck, but
the captain. whoso name was Davy
Cheap, differed, treated them ns muti
neers nnd shot ono of his midshipmen.
Ho Was then deposed, nnd most of the
crew made off In three of the boats.
Later when it was proposcd'To proceed
against tho so called mutineers the law
officers of the crown decided that the
mcji had been correct In their view.
This discovery led to the framing of
section 1)1 of the articles of war. which'
provides that in the case of shipwreck,
destruction or capture by the enemy n
ship is held to remnin In commission
pending Inquiry by n court martial.
