Newfoundland fisherman, working on shares, are sometimes charged ten cents for each shot-hole they make ip the skin of the seal in killing it. A certain fisherman shot a seal, making twelve holes in its pelt with the shot from his gun This skin was worth $1.10. He tock it to the party with whom he had engaged to work, and when his ac. count was cast up the fisherman found he had been charged $1.20 for holés in the skin. In other words, he was a sealskin and ten cents out of pocket.

Red Cloud’s formal address before the U. S. Committee on Appropriations last week was carefully drawn up in writing, signed by the Sioux chief, and witnessed by Lara- mie. It read as follows :—‘‘ Law Chiefs : Lam an Indian! Look atme! My name is Red Cloud. | have sense. The Govern- ment through General Cook in 1876 tock wrongfully 605 horses from me and my people. J have sense ; so have my people. L represent them. Iam in debt, and have a large family.

General Sheridan is said to be already house-hunting in Washington in antici- pation of succeeding General Sherman, not only as Generalissmo of the American atmigs, but also, in a measure, as one of the Social lions of the eapital.

There is apparently no other way of get- ting rid of money with such absolute cers tainity and celerity as to sink it in a hole in the ground. What millions bave been thrown away in mining operations in the reckless and uneducated search for oil and gold and silver ana copper and lead! One of the worst features of this business is that its devotees, not content with squander- ing their own funds, have in thousands of instances victimized their confiding friends. The scamp in New York who sunk ina Utah mine six hundred thousand dollars, held in trust for three sisters, brings into a strong light the passionate, crazy gambling that is carried on in the name of mining develop- ment and @iscovery. It is a device of the devil with which he tempts men to their

ruin.

This, from a Paris letter, is the latest about Rochefort:—-‘‘He haunts the Cham- ber like an unquiet spirit ; the place has a fascination for him ; it reminds »im of all the influence he has missed by his want of the gift of oratory. If he had the same power with his tongue that he has with his envenomend pen, he would rule France in- stead of ruling on

ly a newspaper office. He could never face G

ambetta on the platform: at most he could only give him a stab from the dark of his desk. His face is now less intensely i!]-favoured than it was on his re- turn from New Caledonia, when fasting or trouble had reduced it to the appearance of so much skin stretched in a very tight fit over a skull.

Yet it is still the most | unattractive and

insincere face in the whole thing—the face of a creature power- less for anything but hate. He has a gift of expression, and that is all ; his talk, in go far as the matter of it

Prosessor John Stuart Blackie recently

Mr. Benjamin's retirement from active Practice at the English Bar calls out from the Law Times a statement that “‘his rapid and brilliant suceess culminated in his making in his last year the prodigious Meome of $125,000.” It adds that when 1 practive in the United States he received 10 One case ‘a fee of 10,000 guineas’ that in EBagland he onee received @ fee of 1,000 GMineas, and in several recent cases he re Ceived 500 guineas.

A glover’s apprentice, at Prague, about 18 years of ave, hanged himself the other day, and left behind him a letter to his patents stating that he had been selected

Y & secret society to take the life of one of the chief officers of the police of the city--Police Director Stepkal—and that he had committed suicide in order to evade the performance of this task.

When Rochefort is not 1n the lobbies, he is listening to the debate, glaring down at the tribune like a toothless lion watching the feast he can never hope to devour.
