In Paris, besides the art schouls for the technical education of paint- ers, sculptors and architects, there are schoala devoted to the training of artisans employed in decorative art, iron and bronze work, masons, potters, cabinet makers, house painters, paper stainers, weavers, ete, These institutions are supported by the geeormment and by the municipality of Paris, and are free. The city of Paris spans $200,000 a year for instruccion in drawing and modeliing, and has five evening schools for artisans, with an average of ninety in each school. In addition, the city council has enduwec a proparatory school of practi- cal drawing sud a school for the application of art to industrial purposes. In all these schools there is ample encouragement to original design and composition, by which the dull, monotonous sameness of so many schools of art is avoided. By the monthly competitions so soon as a pupil is proficient in one brancn of instruction he is enabled to advance without vexatious delay. In this way the general principles underlying all the arte are inculcated, aud the pupils get a thorough knowledge of tools and of the materials and their special adaptab.lity to various purposes. The cne great principle underlying the technical education of the artisan is this : the move skilfully and the more artistically an artisan can do his work the more wages he will command. ——, The Devil to Blame.

Some ‘times, however, in his encounters with others birds, he does not come off best. A writer pointing the moral that ** thieves seldom prosper long,” says: ‘It has citen ‘been remarked that property acquired by fraud aud cheating seldom permanently | benetits the possessor, This seems to be the rule among the feathered tribe. | Occasionally the sparrows, which take the) advantage of every cavity about our houses for their own purposes, finding the nest of 3 martin ready for use take possession of it | without ceremony. In this case the right- iful owners endeavor, generally with suc- cess, to oust the intruder from their 'domicile. Sometimes, however, the spar- ‘row in possession obstinately refuses to (quit his usurped abode, and then the lmartins have been seen to adopt a very ‘curious mode of revenging themselves. | When the owners of the nest find that all their endeavors are insuflicient to turn out the rubber, they collect their friends and | neighbors in great numbers and watch |the moment when the sparrow is engaged ‘in the business of incubation; then the i whole body, each bearing a soft mass of ‘earth in its bill, rushes at once to the nest, and in a few minutes the aperture at the top is clused by a solid mass of mud, which _ no effurts on the part of the unhappy pris- ‘ouer can break through. So determined are they indeed to effect their object ‘thoroughly that, in a case recorded by one | Vicomte de Tarragon, ‘the mass of clay, ‘stuffed into the aperture was nearly of the form and size of a smali hen’s egy, the two ends projecting into and out of the nese.

I did not intend to publish it. I put it away for myself. I chanced to give it to the press, and it went over the world, and ‘was even put into Jup nese art.” | Stanley maintains that the Gerrans infla- enced Emin while be was sick, and that Emin doubtless revealed the proposals Stanley made to him at Wadelai—to escort him to another part of Africa and install him in the govern- ment of the region. Stanley thinks the Ger- mans intend to annex, and will act on these plans. If Germany secures the lake region, he says, it will destroy the whole value of the British coast possessions. The conquest of the Soudan would cost £3,000,000, and no Government in Europe has the stamina to undertake it. An exchange reports that St. George’s Church, Ottawa, has a so-ca'led Ritualistic trouble. The rector, Rev. Dr. Qwen Jones, requested the congregation to rise on the entrance of the clergy ; but many of the congregation, thinking they saw in this something of Popery, determined to withdraw from membership. The seceders will go to other Anglican churches of the city. Bishop Lewis said, wien interviewed on the subject : ‘‘[ think if the statements in the papers are coirect, the proceedings at the vestry were a disgrace to Christianity. Objection seems to be taken to mere tritl-s. The rector asked the congregation to rise in church at the entrance of the clergy, a very proper request, in my opinion, tomake. ‘his is what we would do on the entrance of u lady idto a reom, or in a court on the entrance of officials, and why should not this be done ia the presence of the officials of the Church? In almost every - Church in England the emgregation do this, and it is perfectly right and proper.” The upshot :s that Dr. Jones has resigned the ree- torship, and many of his adherents will leave the charch. ’ News Notes.
