OUR EXCHANGES.

LOST PEOPLE'S ABERRATION. A correspondent writes :—" I noticed a paragraph in the " Times " of May 19, under the heading "Why lost people walk in circles," The theory promulgated by " Science Siftings " is that on account of the left leg in the majority of individuals exceeding the right in length, wanderers, when travelling, trend to the right. 1 have accompanied trackers in the Aus tralian bush in search, of lost people, but they all adopted the opposite theory in tiding them in their search. They main tain that the left side of individuals is weaker phyßicially than the right, conse quently those, who go astray move in a circle towards the left, and in many instances brought under my observation this idea seemed perfectly correct." SMOKKLKSB AMMUNITION. In sending a consignment of the new smokeless Martini-Henry rifle cartridges to Messrs Cameron and Christie, of Wellington, Messrs Kynoch, direct that 500 rounds be given to the Government for testing purposes. The firm's letter in connection with the matter says :— "We have just shipped one million of these cartridges for the .Government to India. Being a new kind of ammunition, intended for a trying climate, they were subjected by the Inspection Department at Woolwich Arsenal to the most severe tests of every kind, but came out of them in a most highly satisfactory manner. The velocities w#re very uniform, and the shooting most accurate. We also had the same results with our extensive trials here." THE ISLANDS. The Government steamer Hinemoa, under command of Captain Fairchild, arrived last week at a southern port from her periodical trip to the Islands. A con temporary says:—-The various islands were visited, but nothing out ot the ordinary occurred «;n the trip. The men secured a number of the birds indigenous to the islands, and some of these are entirely different to anything on this island. For instance, they have two species of parrakeets larger than thai common to .New Zealand. One is entirely green, and the other has a partially crimson head. A molly-hawk and a kakapo are amongst the feathered bipeds on board the steamer, and the youngsters were greatly amused yesterday by the soldierly marchings of a pair of king penguins and their droll appearance when they " formed into line." Some ingenuity has been disphyed in making cages for the large number of small birds, kerosene and biscuit tins having been largely requisitioned to meet the demand. FROZEN MEAT FOR INDIA. The " Pastoralista' Review " says that at thin time, when the all-important question is to find a sufficient market for our frozen mutton, it would be worth while to make inquiries as to the possi bility of finding a market in India. For this purpose the European population would alone be available, but they should be sufficient to furnish a considerable demand seeing that at present there is no decent meat to be obtained in India. There are always cars with refrigerating chambers upon the railways, and if ft central dep&fc wern formed at Calcutta the work of distribution should cot be diffi cult. One cf the advantages in dealing wUh India is that the military depart ment alone could contract for a large regular supply, which would form the backbone of a trade. Whate»er mutton ever appears on the table of an Indian mess at present is not worth eating, and the privates and non-commissioned officers hardly ever see fresh meat, and are supplied with tinned provisions. There may be difficulties not apparent to out siders, but the matter is woith looking into. INTERCOLONIAL FBEETBADE. The " Hobart Mercury " states that Mr Dobson, the Taamanian Premier, has received a telegram from the Premier of South Australia (Sir John Downer) ap proving of the idea of an intercolonial conference with a view of establishing intercolonial freetrade, and saying that he hoped his Government would be repre sented by delegates when it takes place. Although Mr Dobson has not yet received any repV to his letter from the Govern ment of New South Wales, except an intimation through the Victorian Premier that no attention can yet be given bo the matter, the assent of Victoria makes three colonies willing to co-operate, the opinion of West Australia and Queensland also remaining an open question. Mr Dobson, however, in view of the partial approval he has elicited, suggests that the confer ence should be held in Melbourne early next year, as the delegates are on their way to Hobart to attend the session of the Federal Council; or better still, if all the celonies will in the meantime join the Federal Council, enlarging the number of its members and its powers, the important subject of a customs union could be dis cussed during the session. GERMAN MILITARY DBILL A telegram from Berlin bears witness to the completeness of German military drill (writes the London "Daily Tele graph.") The army is not only to march and shoot, but it is to be prepared for every emergency. Already the men are taught the Spartan art of swimming a river-accoutred more heavily than was Horatius Codes vhen he stemmed the flooded Tiber—and of sleeping in tents without covering until the cold renders sleep impossible. Nor is the bicycle un known m the War Office. Now the soldiers are to learn the use of snow shoes. At all events, selected squads from Hirschber? and other garrisons have been exercised in these aids for traversing a wintry country, and what is more suggestive, for crossing mountain ranges. The Peterbande, the Sturm haube, and other Silesian hills have b«en ascended and descended with far greater ease and quickness than if the climbers had been shod in the usual way. At the same time, the use of the snow shoe for mountain-climbing purposes is only prac ticable when the pedestrian reaches a flat place. It is certain that to scramble up a frozen slope and get over a slippery ridge or crawl round a " ticklish" corner, will demand less cumbersome gear.

CABLE SUMMARY.

f It is proposed in Chicago to open the Ex hibition during the winter months. '. The western collieis at Sydney have i given fourteen days' notice, and the rest ceased work on Thursday. The colonial cavalry and artillery team 8 were present at the trooping of the colors. Several members of the Royal Family were present, and congratulated the colonial troops. } In the House of Commons Mr Glad- I stone said that a slight concession in Home Rule had irritated the Irish, whose menace had made the Government withdraw in part. At a meeting of the Committee, who are inquiring into the marking of frozen meat, Mr Long suggested the branding of home grown meat in preference to marking the colonial article, and that special sign-boards should be placed over shops where imported meat is sold. • He advocated that foreign butter should be packed in special boxes similar to Victorian, and favored the brand ing of imported cheese on the same lines as the American State brand.
