The peasants of Sardinia are in the con-
slant habit Of hunting eagles and vultures,
both for profit and as an amusement. In
the year 1889, three young men brethren
living near San Gioranni de Domas NOvas,
having espied an eagles nest in the bottom
of precipice, they drew lots to decide
which Of them should descend TO take il
away. The danger did not arise so much
from the depth of the precipice-upwards
Of a hundred feet-but the apprehension OF
the numerous birds Of prey that inhabited
the cavern. However, the lot fell on one
Of the brothers. a young man Of about two
and twenty, OF athletic form, and dauntless
spirit. He belted l;notted rope round his
waist, by which his brothers could raise and
lower him at will and armed with a
sharPened infantry sabre. he boldly descend.
ed the rock, and reached the nest in safety.
1t contained four eagles Of that peculiar
bright plumage called the light Isabella.
The difficulty now arose in bearing away
the nest He gave a signal to his brothers,
and they began to haul him up, when he
was fercely attacked by two powerful
eagles, the parents Of the young birds he had
captured. The onset was most furious,
they darkened the cavern BY the tapping of
their broad wings, and it was not without
much difficulty that he kept them off with
his sword when on sudden, the rope that
suspended him swung round, and on look.
ing up he perceived that he had partly
severed it with his sabre At this fearful
sight he was struck with such sudden ter.
ror. that he was unable to urge his compan-
ions to hasten to his delivery, although he
still kept his fierce antagonists at bay. His
brothers continuing to haul him up, while
their friendly voices encouraged him, he
soon reached the summit of the rock but
althoug n he continued to grasp the eagles
hest, he was sPeechless. and his hair. which
had before been Of jet black color, was
now as white as snow.-Dr. .Niiiingens

The chasteness in these statues is strongly
contras;ed with the usual righteousness OF
the antique, and it is especially illustrated
by the air Of total Inconsistencies in the
Eve and the Greek Girl. This is trait OF
delicacy, in my opinion, althogether higher

The Assyal Wislo w.

There has been some little amendment OF
late in the health OF the Duchess of Orleans.
and the Joy TO which the event has given rise
has been some compensation to the royal
circle Tor all the fluctuations and vexations
from without. 1t is said that she has al
length found a new interest in life to divert
her mind from the morbid contemplation Of
the sorrow which has been sapping her very
existence. She has undertaken work
suited to the gravity Of her intellect, and
well calculated to employ the fruits Of the
study and meditation to which she has devo
ted herself for the last five years. 1t is a
history ofthe Philosophy ofthe Middle Ages,
and those who have been admitted to her in
timacy speak in the highest terms of the deep
research and powerful thinking displayed in
its execution. 1t is in occupations Of this
nature, diversified by the superintendent
Of the education Of her children, that the
royal widow passes the whole of her days,
seeming not to have moved with time in his
progress, since the hour which bereit her OF
hope and happiness fell Ike a thunderbolt,
and crushed her as if 10 rise no more. Her
favorte boudoir at the Tuileries, and from
which she rarel y stirs save to pay her even
ing visit to the Queen, is an exact counter
part Of the one allotted to her use at the
country palace of Ludwigslust, where she
passed her happy childhood, and where she
first received the intimation that the choic e
Of the Prince Royal of France had fallen
upon her. The small organ placed beneath
the magnificent portrait Of the late Duke,
by lngres, is the very one upon which she
was playing a symphony by Sebastian Bach
when her brother entered with joyous coun-
tenance to announce the news. Sometimes
at twilight the promenaders in the garden
can hear the sounds of that organ and the
notes Of that very symphony as they come
through the open window like harmony from
Heaven. To those who know the tale it
seems the sad requiem ofthe good and brave,
the evening prayer for his repose. have
myself seen among the fair listeners many
bri ght eye dimmed with tears ere that
strain was concluded. The duchess touch
es the organ with a master hand, and is re-
markable for the one great excellence of
deeming all things worthy of being ,ceu
done.-Paris correspondent of the London

PUNISHMENT OF IDLE HUsBANps.-The
head chief (of New Ireland) often interferes
in minor matters of domestic nature; lor
instance, if a lazy fellow has wife or two
and few children, and through his love ior
fishing, dancing, and lettering idly about,
neglects to bring in the necessary supplies
for his family; a complaint is made, the
chief visits the house in person, and if he
secs just grounds for punishment he orders
out the whole population Of the village
men, women, and children, arm themselves
with stiff birch made Of small canes, they
then form long double line about six feet
apart, and wait with anxious glee the ap-
proach Of the delinquent. At last he is
placed at one end Of the lines amidst a
shower Of yells. screams, jibes, &c. The
word 10 given by the chief. and away he
darts at his utmost speed through the ranks,
every one endeavoring to hit him as he pass
e. According to his deserts, he may get
of with running the line once, or may have
to do 50 twice or thrice; but he is skilled
in cunning and Aeetness that can run the
lines even once, without having his skin
tickled for him, by the hearty application
Of the birch, welded by some strong wo
men, As the punishment is not Of a fatal
kind The whole affair creates unrestricted
merriment.-Dr. Comlter's Adrenturss on
he Wstern Coaa Of South America.
