Every one who has been in the coun- try knows the common crow which lives in our woods and fields, and is familiar with the hoarse “‘caw-caw.” which betokens his presence. These great, black birds, ing about, attract 3 circling and wheel- city-bred eyes, and the discordant notes are not displeas- ing to the because suggestive of country sights and sounds.

On November 7th, 1873. the second Ministry assumed office under Hon. Alexander Mackenzie, with whom were associated <A, A. Dorion, frid Laurier and several others, who, like nearly all their predecessors, have now for the most part vanished from public life. The Mackenzie Ministry held office until October 16th, 1878, not quite five years, and were succeeded by Sir John A. Macdonald’s second Cabinet, the third of the Dominion. The following new names appeared during Sir John’s tenure of power, which continued until his death on June 6th, 1891. They were: John 8S. D. Thompson, James McDonald, A. W. McLellan, G. Foster, L.

They held office under Sir John Abbott until he resigned from ill- health on December Sth, 1892. The hitherto untried men included in this Cabinet were Joseph A. Ouimet, J. C. Patterson and T. M. Daly. The fifth Ministry was formed by Sir John Thompson on December Sth, 1892, and held office under that statesman for two years and one week. Sir John Thompson died on December 12th, 1894. During his two years of power he had brought into his Cabinet W. B. Ives, A. R. Angers, J. J. Curran, J. F. Wood and Clarke Wallace, none of whom had previously held office. After Sir John Thompson's death Sir Mackenzie Bowell became Premier, and he has held the reins of power ever since. He has taken in A. R. Dickey and Hon. D. Ferguson. The Youngest Peeress. Queen Victoria, according to the Official Gazette, has elevated a little 16-months-old girl to the rank of a peeress of the realm. It is probably the first occasion that a coronet has been conferred upon a girl of such ten- der age, and not a member of the reign- ing house. The new peeress of the realm is the tiny daughter of the late Lord Beaumont, and in the future she will be known asthe Baroness Beau- mont. Strictly speaking and to use the heraldic phraseology, the peerage conferred upon her is not a new one, but is that of her father’s, and has been “called out of abeyance.” But, inas- much as this ‘calling out of abeyance” is solely a matter of the pleasure of the Queen, the honor just announced may be regarded as a new creation. When the late Lord Beaumont was killed a few monts ago, he left a little girl, and a few weeks after his death his widow gave birth toanother. The arrival of the second little girl had the effect, according to the peculiar laws governing the succession of peerages- by-svrit, of rendering the bawony ‘‘dor- mant.” And so it would have remain- ed until one vr t®e other of the two girls ha@ died, unless the sovereign had made use of her prerogative to call the barony out of abeyance by conferring it on one of the two girls. It is so little of a question of succession that. her Majesty, had she been so disposed, might easily have conferred it upon the younger instead of the elder of the two children.

Dr. George Herschell, of London, has written a book, entitled ‘Health Troubles of City Life,” that is | very highly praised by London critics. , in one of the chapters devoted to the | study of stimulants he says: “Stimulants never increase the natu- ;ral capacity of the brain. They can | only abstract for the purposes of work in hand some of the energies which are sorely needed to repair and to restore a brain which has already been taxed to the furthest limit which is consistent with health. To remove the sense of fatigue ewased by overwork by the con- sumption of alechol is to clos} one’s ears to the voice of nature. The weari- ness’ of the brain is a protest against further exertion until recuperation has been obtained by rest; and if the weary feeling is deadened or destroyed by ad- ventitious means nature will enact her penalty. | ‘**When the overworked man of busi- Edward | Blake, Sir Richard Cartwright, Wil- | ness, having been on his legs all day, and feeling fit to drop, with a sensa- tion of ‘all-goneness’ about the region of his stomach, rouses himself with whatever he is in the habit of taking, be it whisky, champagne, or even tea or coffee, he does not add one atom of force to his stock of energy, although he fancies he does, but having put to sleep his sense of weariness, simply ap- propriates some of his reserve for the present necessity.

His account at the bank of life will soon be overdrawn. Alcohol can not add one iota to the reserve of nervous energy. but it may delude him into ex- hausting it.

A correspondent tells a story of a handsome black horse, so big and strong that he seemed hardly to feel the weight of the heavy delivery wag- on with which he made the roxnds of the neighborhood. His driver was a brutal fellow, who ought to have been the creature driven. Blows, kicks and angry words were the only caresses he ever bestowed upon his steed, and these the horse suffered quietly for many a long day, till finally even his endurance gave out. One hot morning the man reined the horse in roughly by the curbstone. On dismounting he seemed to think the wagon too near and harshly ordered his steed to back, emphasizing the com- mand with a cut from his whip. The horse backed obediently, though an- grily, while the man, heated by his exertions, took off his coat, and, having hung it over the dashboard, disappear- ed in the house. he horse waited until the driver was out of sight, and then, looking around, he saw the coat hanging only a short distance from his heels. In- stantly a change came over him ; he actually seemed to laugh, as he lifted one foot and let it fly at the coat. Finding that he could hit it well, he began to beat a regular tattoo upon it ; first with one foot, then with the other, and finally, as he grew excited, with both at once. Surely no coat ever had a more thor- ough dusting. Out flew notebooks, pa- pers, and handkerchiefs, and rolled in- to the gutter; but the horse kept on until he heard a door slam and he knew his master was returning. Then, with a final kick that sent the coat itself under the wagon, he settled sleepily down in the shafts, and pretended to be watching a pair of mules that had just gone by. He didn’t seem to mind the slaps the dviver gave him while picking up his belongings, and when he started off he looked up at the window and appeared to wink at those who liad been watch- ing him and half wishing that they could reward him with a peck of oats. —Youth’s Companion.

A number of experiments were re- cently made to ascertain the length of time that brick and sandstone are rendered waterproof or protected by oil. The three oils used were linseed oil, boiled linseed and crude mineral oil. The amount of oil and water taken up by the sandstone was very much less than that absorbed by the brick, al- though the area of the sandstone cube was much greater. Equal amounts of the raw and boiled oil were absorbed. The mineral oil, however, was taken up in much greater quantities by both brick and sandstone. By the end of twelve months the mineral oil evapor- ated from the bricks, but such was not the case when the other oils were used. After an exposure. of four years the bricks practically retained all their oil, inasmuch as they had not lost any of their weight, and were also nearly im- pervious to moisture. It was notice- able that the sandstone cubes treated with linseed oil returned to their or- iginal weights, but do not appear to have lost the beneficial effect of the oils, being also practically waterproof. —Mining and Scientific Press, AT STITTSVILLE!

All around his sitting room were shelves, those upon one side laden with canisters of Souchong, Bohea, Congou, Pekoe, Russian and other varieties of tea. The shelves opposite were decorated with handsome jars containing every kind of snuff, while snuff boxes lay here, there and every- where. Lord Petersham prided him- self on-possessing the most magnificent array of boxes to be found in Europe, and was supposed to have a fresh snuff box for every day in the year. Another eccentric Frenchman was a bean enthusiast. He wrote a book upon the history of haricots and their influence upon humanity ; and rejoiced in collecting beans from all quarters of the globe and carefully labeling and arranging them. Some of the speci- meus are very valuable, having cost as much as 500 francs. His death was hastened by the mysterious disappear- ance of some Japanese beans, upon which he set especial vaiue. ————— LBWIS' PHOTOGRAPHS None Better ! Nene Cheaper !

ENTRANCE ON GRAFTON ST., | OGPPOSITE THE POST OFFICE. feb20 ees STORY OF WOLSELEY. The Commander-in-Chief Shows a Lazy Postmaster How to Work. To illustrate some of the disagreeable things which the soldiers suffered in the Soudan, says the Springfield Re- ing anecdote of the postal service, which also shows well how democratic was Lord Wolseley, the- commandant. Nourse went to the post-office at Korti to look for some letters. The postmas- ter was a native and not very much at handwriting, and said that there was nothing for him, after giving a super- ficial glance at a big pile of papers and letters. Nourse asked to see the pile of letters, and while he was looking over | them a man with nothing to designate |! his rank came into the office in come | pany with another. He took in the situation at a glance, and said, ** Let’s clean this thing out.” Whereupon they jumped over the counter and bundled the postmaster out, neck and heels. Then they began the examination of the office and feund it congested with mail fer the army. They searched every nook and cranny and threw the letters for one regiment into one corner, those for another into another, with all the newspapers in the center of the floor. Then they went through each pile and separated it into companies, and before nigut every letter in camp was distrib- uted and the next day the papers were out. Nourse at the time did not know who his companion was. He asked him his name, and his answer was: “They cali me Charley.” Some time afterward Nourse was going to see the cominandant, and sitting near his tent saw his companion at the post-office, ** Helle, Charley,” he said, ‘*I’m look ing for the commandant; where’ll I find him?” “Well,” said * Charley,” * you won't have to look far. I’m the commandant. Come inside and have a bit to eat and drink.” It was Lord Wolseley, and a man worthy of the title. The Battle of Cape St. Vincent. As a naval action the battle of Cape St, Vincent is distinguished by the firm resolution which, for sufficient reason, dared to engage against odds so great ; by the promptitude and vigor with which was seized the unforeseen oppor- tunity offered by the severance of the Spanish fleet; by the sound judgment which led Jervis to attack the weather division, though far larger, because the lee could not for along time assist it ; and finally, by the brilliant inspiration and dauntless courage which enabled Nelson to redeem in time the single capital oversight committed by the commander-in-chief. This combination of daring and judgment, of skilful di- rection with energetic determination to have none but great results, marked anepoch in naval history. Succeed- ing the dawn that glowed around the names of Rodney, of Howe and of Hood, this achievement of Jervis’s fore- tokened the near approach of that bril- liant noontide of the British navy, which was coincident with the career of Nelson,and culminated at Trafalgar, Its timely importance, in the eyes of the Government, was shown by the re- wards bestowed upon the commander- in-chief. Already destined, for emin- ent services, to the lowest grade of the peerage, he was now at one step raised to the dignity of Earl, with the title of St. Vincent, by which he is now best known to history.—{“Nelson at Cape St. Vincent,” by Capt.
