The consumption of horse-flesh has been con-
stantly increasin,, in Paris. In 1868 2,241 animals were
sent to the butchers, including a few asses and mules, the
whole producing 484,200 kilogrammes of meat. In 1869
the number of horses slaughtered was 2,758, which gave
over 550,000 kilogrammes of meat.
AN EXAMPLE FOR THIEVES.—A case of con-
science in which Charles Yellowplush might have been the
principal, has occurred at Milwaukee. Some years ago,
a gentleman there was robbed of a $lOO bond. The thief
has now sent it back, with the information that it has
" layed on his stummuck ever sense." His reason for
taking it was simple : " i tuk it for i wanted munny."
His reason for not selling it is rather more complicated :
Evry time i went to sell the thing sumthing told me not.
to, and i did n't. His surrender of the security is uncon-
ditional : " Here it is for i can't keep it no longer."
Excellent, if not grammatical ! praiseworthy, if not ortho-
graphical ! There are men who can spell a great deal
better than he can, who might follow the Milwaukee
hief's example.— Tribune.
UAJOLERY.— We all know :ttAv often the current
meaning of a word has e'. .t to be wideiy different from
that implied in its derivation. The word at the
head of this article is a case in point • for "to
cajole" originally meant (says Menage) to treat
a person as you do a caged bird—to play with
and pet him, and make him learn tricks tor your amuse-
ment. There is, indeed, a hint in the etymology books
that, like the similar word enjoler, cajole may have an
unpleasant connection with gaol ; but the weight of
authority leans to cage. Anyhow, the word was
early used of love-making, to which primitive use we
will now restrict it. Cajolery, then, will be
flirtation with a difference, and a most' important
one. Flirtation proper is a game in which both sides
know what they are about, a mere trial of skill ; or else
it is a bit of more or less cruel play on the part of one
who uses the other party as the Roman fencer did the
dummy on which he practised his cuts and thrusts. We
say more or less cruel, though we believe it is generally
less ; for no one, if not very green and very foolish withal,
was ever much hurt by mere flirtation. It is a far more
innocent game than they would have us believe who never
were able to play at it. The danger is, when the element
of real passion comes in, when the flirt, intent on con-
quest, gets to be ever so little in earnest. Then at once
the playful joust is turned into a combat d l'outrance, and
what was mere fun becomes reprehensible—becomes, in
fact, cajolery.—. Press and St. James's Chronicle.
