same principle as making faces at a man's sister because you don't like him. Canada is not responsible for any injustice to Ire land. She has no representation in the British Parliament, and her opinion is never asked in reference to any enact ment. She has no other view to take of these men than to regard them as high waymen and show them promptly the way to the scaffold. —New York Albion.

If, rather good joke has been perpetrated at%he expense of the country press. A paragraph appeared in a Thames news paper stating with great circumstantiality that a marriage had just taken place be the hon. Mr. Bowen, the great grandson of Sir George Bowen, one of the Governors of New Zealand, with a Maori princess, and that the bridegroom wore the native kilt. As Sir George Bowen is the present representative of Her Majesty, and as his children are scarcely in their teens, the object of the New Zealand journalist was to show what might take place in the way of admixture of the races in the course of the next half century. But the Melbourne journalist did not see the joke, hut extracted the paragraph verbatim into his columns, giving it the attractive title of " Marriage in High Life," and his mistake was copied by half a dozen pro vincial newspapers. Perhaps this may be a lesson to them not to steal paragraphs without acknowledging the source from which they are derived, —Wanganui paper. " Our Major," said an American soldier, " had very long feet, and also a horse that threw every one but the major. One evening the major's servant was out on the parade ground, with the horse, and as usual got thrown off, when one of the boys spoke up and said ' I know why the horse won't throw the major!' 'Why?' was asked by a dozen or more. ' Well, you see, the major's got such long feet that the horse thinks he is in shafts.

An extraordinary reason for committing suicide was assigned by a young man who drowned himself in the river Eden, at Carlisle, on November Ist. Previous to jumping into the river he gave 5s to an old man to pay him for taking a parcel to the chief constable ; and when the parcel was opened it was found to contain a written statement to the effect that Mr Darwin having proved men to be des cended from monkeys, the writer did not desire to live any longer.
