I 4 ' Only the other day" (writes • * A*i,'!o Australian '' in tbe E arose* n \V) " I *.vhp o iv^rsin? with • friend ,o i !■•"■■• ' ry t-.id'Mt advance* new making in most of tiie Australasian Colonies to a ballancin ; of the sexes — an event not very far removed. It is evident that some persons here are extremely anxious to bring a'»otU this eoiisumation, and, if half what I hear be true as to the systematic means now adop ed or contemplated foi furnishing .hsconsolate Australian l>achelors with wives, the male sex will not very long predominate in numbers. At Grimsby, in Os"»me street, tlu re is at the present moment, an agency expressly designed to provide wives for Australians, and great endneements are offered to charm away females who might otherwise be disposed to heed the more prasiac bnt practical pleas of the various Agents-Gen ral, who are likewise working to reduce th# present disparity of the sexes at the Antipodes. I name rm names, for obvious reasons, and <*inc?rely trust the Grimsby and other similar agencies nay do only good, b .tr I fear that many wonen are disappointed. In one instance, we are j seriously told that on tbe arrival of one of these consignments of marriageI able fern ilea, colonists rush to the ! dinks, exa ni'ie the new arrivals inxtante<-, and forthwith propose ! This is drawing a very long l>ow indeed." M my a-iecdotes relative to Sir Mease Montftuore are being retailed jnst now, with •* variations " (says ' , Angloj Australian " in the European Mail). ' Most of these soon get into print, bei one incident in his career is not I fancy, as yet widely known*, and may interest some of his ma iy ftift-ds snd admirers in the Colonies. It is simply this. Very many years ago, some life or two — as lives usually ron — Sir j Meees failed in business, etui the ere diI tors had little or nothing. Nothing uncommon in that, I hear- somebody j say. Btop a moment, please. Sir \ Moses was not as most men. He set to ; work, completely recoversm hi* xmm* , mercial toese*, prospered, end Uigdv__ • when the time he had marked oflt in his own mind arrived, he convened all : his old creditors, greatly to their sar- | prise, and presented to each matt his j claim — long since abandoned — ie fall, | with 5 per sent, interest added tb-tweto, i calenla ed from the date of hie ssirare, and forming a large bonus to the original amonnt. This noblo act was fully app-fciated by tbo sstonished creditors, who bed m»ttr leofesd for » , farthing of tbeir "fM*} i-gain from 1 Sir Mosses. Saeha oimssiiuuus set as this, of the highest mereeatile honor as well as of tree morality, should cot pass into oblivion. Dr Taylor in his " Votes on Popular Science" in the Australasias of tbe 13th Decemtrf-T, says :— M Tl* brilliant nhe-iomon-il sutisets have re-appeared n their *rd splendour. Krakatoa, aid t'.ie Alaskan volcanoes have been quiet all the summer, and now we cannot j call them in to solve the poblem. One scientist writes te a contemporary U> suggest that the cans* of their continuance may be that Karakstoa last year ejected so ranch fine volcanic ashee that it, consequently, remained buspended in space, and now that the earth's annual journey has rsaohed that part of space again, of conrso the volcanic dust has to be passed threngh. This is one of the neatest hypotheses I ever heard of." ' Tmth ' hears that a member of the Cavendish family has opened a tee shop at Eastbourne, and ht is receiving a full share of public support from the inhabitants and visitors, who have benefited so much by thejadiCMSS enterprise of his -relative, the lord of the soil.
