THE NICARAGUAN CANAL.

Presipext McKixuer has called upo2 Congress to actatonce in respect to the completion of the Nicaraguan canal. This call is doubtless a result of the delay of the baitleship Oregon while coming round by Cape Horn during the critic 1] period at the beginning of the recent Spani¢h~Ameri- can war. The lengthof the canal, if con- structed, will be 46 miles, of which about

15 miles will be on the Atlantic and 74 miles on the Pacific side, or about one balf of the

Where Do the People Profit?

—_-

The politicians andthe agencies that were going todo so much gocd under the new regime are doing good for them- selves.

Eleven members of Parliament have dropped into nice sinecures.& The cld stumpers who wept on the

platform about the hard lot of the farmer have forgotten the farmer and reached for situations.

Ministerial relatives have found com-~ fort iu offices and Ministers |iave woo’d pleasure in their luxurious cars and to their European and Washington trips at th- public expense.

The old Globe has taken off ite mask, and has led its factions right upto the trough and has helped them to “ihe stuff.”

All the politicians and at least one of the organs are doing mighty well for them- eelves. "

But what of the people?

They get nothing but the right to pay more taxes.

\ oood time 1s coming ; I wish it was here !

The very best time in the whole of the vear ;

I am counting each day, on my fingers and thumbs,

The hours that must pass before Santa Claus comes.

Good-bye for a while, then to lessons and schocl ;

We can laugh talk and sing without “breaking the rule !”

No troublesome spelling, nor writing nor sums,

There’s nothing but playtime when

Santa Claus comes.

I suppose I shall have a new dolly, of course,

My last one was killed by a fall from her horse.

And for Harry and Jack there'll be

To when Santa

I'll hang up my stocking to hold what he brings ;

I hope he will fill it with lots of nice things ;

He must know how clearly I love sugar plums ;

I'd like a big box full when Santa Claus comes.

Then while the big snowflakes so swift- ly come down,

And the wind whistles sharp and the

branches are brown,

not mind the cold

fingers it numbs,

For it brings us the time when good Santa Claus comes.—Selected.

A Boy Prodigy.

John Philip Baratier, the son ot a French Protestant clergyman, was born in 1721. His learning was truly wonderful. He could speak in Latin, French and German, when he was only four years old, and at six he could read the Greek Testament. Between the ages of seven and ten he mastered the Hebrew tongue, and made a dictionary of the most difficult words for his own use. He then translated into French the Travels of Benjamin of Tudela, a Jew who had lived in the twelfth cen- tury.

Before he was fourteen, he had written and published a learned book against a divine named Crellins. About the same time he was made a Master of Arts at the University of Halle, and his fame reached the ears of the king, who often conversed with him, and made him presents.

The last four years of his life he spent at Halle, inthe study of law. In 1740 he died of consumption, aged nineteen years and eight months, and thus a career of great promise was cut short. He left bebind him many manu- scripts, the chief part of which he was not able to finish. He was never fond ot amuSements, but he was always cheerful and happy, and he loved his father and mother as much as a boy could. So John Philip Baratier was good as well as clever.—Stanford

The Monkey and the Sugar On one occasion a monkey was given a lump of sugar in a corked glass bottle. The monkey was fond of sugar, and

tried every way that he could to get at it, twisting himself around the bottle, watching it slyly for a long time, then jumping on it suddenly, as if he thought he could catch it unawares snapping at it through the glass as if he must reach it, but all to no purpose. He would sit and lock at it for hours at a time, as if he were trying to think of some way to reach it, and at such times his face would express the great- est sadness, as if there was no use try ing to be happy as long as that lump of sugar couldn’t be had. Sometimes he would tilt the bottle up to drink out the sugar, and then make a quick spring to catch it as it fell back to the bottom. But he couldn’t get it till one day ajar of bananas that stood on the table was knocked over and broken, the fruit rolling in alldirections ‘This seemed to be a sufficient hint, for almost at once he seized the teasing bottle lifted it high, and threw it to the floor with great force. Of course it broke, and of course the monkey seized the lump and munched it with great satisfaction.—Exchange.

An Irish magistrate, censuring some boys for loitering in the streets, argued.

“If everybody were to stand in the street, how cou'd anybody get by ?”
