The Charge.

At * trot they move off which, m feU the column formation, would ren am until within five hundred yatds of the enemy. Now bcouib are Bhed off at either fliak, iswords are brought to th» * engage' mndthe rrgiment is wheded into live At the gallop they come to within a hun dced yards of their objective, ihe charge is no* sounded, the horse is given leg and epur, every ounce is let go, and ib ia bell and l«»ther for the rest. Bee, they are off! Front trot to pallop, from gallop to charge. It is cold lips and tight hecK j sweating hoiaes and empty saddles. I I* a pa«D to the war gods. Through the emoka and ihe dust and the dance of the fteel they thunder away. Tha p ngiag snd z'pping of rhot; the break of hoofs over the ih king earth ; the ahonre of the m?n whosa giory in to die, and tha snorts of the hor ea whose glory is to suffer. It is a s'ampede of wild hones through boiling stream. As a spectacle it is ftui: zing and wonderful ; it is magnificent —but it is not war. Not war, because tattle !• no longer a spectacle of blare and colour. Kever again wll cavalry charge resolute infantry. Even in ssronty the Grormana taaght the French that such was tbe veriest gamble.— -Idler.

The Outlander a Perennial diffi culty

Ib at least may Induce us to see that the Transvaal troubles have arben not entirely becaase of the perrerted ambi tions cf Dutch politicians and the fanatics 1 pride if the Dutch burghera but also hrough natural causes -e-tnses which oper.te even where there is no racial ciasei eiontotx cerbate the coi flict ot interests* It is ihe &»cient quarrel hetween Town and Country, b'twe«n the Few Settlers and ihe t Id, between the Agrarian interest and the Financial. It is not peculiar to Africa or to Australia ; out it is sure to arise in thn most, aeu'e fotm when a population of vll.gtrsand farmers, who hava possessed 8 monopoly of political p^wer, find themselves i danger of being swamped by an Inrush of m ning imurgianta from the outside world The older settlers, conservatives, and levers of tradition, as those who are rooted to the soil tend to b?, do not like tho strangers, with their hustling wry a and disturbing ideas The disliku v usually returned wi'h interest. Bach party has a certain contempt for the other The prospector has no patience with a m»u who would rather be com fortable than rich ; the countryman looks down on the cockney, who cannot, shoot or ride, and sits all day behind an office desk. The farmer feala too that he i* really the citizen with "a stake in the country "—*' Unigmaß of Kmpire," by Sidney Low.

HOW GENERAL FPENCH LEFT LADYSMITH.

Whea the besiegers were closing around Ladysmith, and thtre was no hope of his being of further Bervico to make reconnaisances, General French jumped into the last train in order to carry despatches from Sir George White !o Sir Redvers Buller. In vain did the Boers inspect every carrage when the train passed their Hnea. Apparently there was no person of importance travelling; for inde< d, the only person of consequence was the gallant cavalry officer, hidde» beneath the scat of his railway carragp. The despatches of which he was the bearer he had put intoacrevicn of the train, so that if he had been discovered t hpy wcu'd not have been found on him Tl'is somewhat undignified position of concealment waa maintained by Genera! French until he was well out. inlo the open country, when he once more breath d freely.. In writing home he said it v» ».s the most anxious twenty minutes ha ever spent in his lifp.

FARMERS TAKE NOTE.

Farmers thioaghout * cotland would be well fdvised to take ndvantage of the offer of the Meteorological Office to send telegrams forcaaling the wrather furt!ie n<'xt twenty four hours to any address for the sum of sixpence daily from tha beginning of hay harvest till the end of the grain harvest, 'ihese telegrams have been sent expen'raentallj to a few selected dis ricts for some years and the reprrt upon them i 3 that in about 95 per cent they were correct as to the weather. Farmers are generally very eager to get any reliable intelligence as to the probable weather in their district at the time of harvest, and when they get this intelligence from a resqonsible and reliable source, they should not fail to take advantage of it. In country die tricts, * number of farmers could club together and get * daily telegram sent to the Post offce of their Par sh, where it coald be exhibited on a board outside for the information of all, and the charge of sixpence a day would not be burden some when it was spread over so many, In Canada and the United State?, the practice of sending telegrams as to the probable weather of the day to the farm ers is very widely extended, and in some cases tfafi morning trains carry into dis tricts which are far from the telegraph the forecast for the day chalked on their vans, A note to the Secretary, Mete orological Office, London, with the re quisite number of sixpences, would bring very interesting and useful infor icftt:on to any district every day,— Home paper

A Wonderful Watch

What; is said to be the most remarkable piece of mechanisir ever put aogether by man is a watch made in Berlin, which measures Jess than a quarter of an inch in diftmttdr and weighs under two grains. The case Is of gold, the works and hands are of the finest tempered steel, sni the whole construction is of the mist ap proved plan ; while Ie if? declared to keep time exceltenUy. The minute hand ia less than an eighth of an inch long, the hour hand less than a twelfth of an inch, and the s?cond hand not one-sixteenth of an inch long. The cost of this watch was in reverse proportion to its eiza, for the owner is said fco have paid close upon £400 for ifc.
