sacrifice OF Human Life Ia W'ar,

A Parsian paper--La Presso which enjoys q
larger circulation than any other journal IN Eu'
rope, has recently presented an appalling picture
of the results Of modern wars, 1t appears that o
one million two hundred thousand men enrollec
in the armies OF France in 1913, only one hun
dred thousand were alive in 1914; and that be
tween l79l and 1913, twenty one years, no less
than four millions five hundred thousand French
men were blown to pieces by cannon, transhxed
by bayonets brought down by musketeers,or slam
by sabers or broadswOrds, Yet, by all this sacri'
feed, France did not gain permanentpo oi
one square inch Of ground beyond her former ter
rtorlal limits.
The London Times, by way Of commentary on
these horrible statistics, computes that the loss
Of the allies in the war which cost France so
much blood, was about ten millions of men, cut
to pieces in the prime Of life. So much for the
wars OF royal butchers.
"Build temple to Ambition,
Base it on an empires neck,
Ye who bow in meek submission
At scepterek tyrants beck.
Search earths bosom for the slaughtered,
And with bones that there be hid
OF the millions it has marlyr'd,
Pile the ghastly pyramid" :"

Song for December.

HARK! how the wind now Whistles wlld
The leaness trees among,
Hark to its voice loud echolngtorIh
A melancholy song;
Der Hill and dale, its mourniul tale
Is told with piteouS sigh,
And il groans with a sad and bitter grief
For the smiling days gone by
1t whispers in hollow voice,
OF summers joyous hours,
When beauty bid the heart rejoice
In Natures lovely bowers;
when all was sunshine bright and warm
Aud perfume 6lI'd the air,
And earth could boast beauteousiorm
And countenance 50 fail
I, whispers, too, that these bright things
Have persisted and are gone'
That ioys, like riches, buy them wings
And soon. too soon, are flown;
That all that's good and beautiful
Beneath this changeful sky,
Must, like the SIMMER and sweet sPrlng'
With swift destruction die
Then list the wind, how it whistles wild,
The leahess trees among,
How it echoes forth Der the desert earth
A melancholy song;
Der hin and dale its mourniul tale
Is told with pteous sigh,
And it grosns with a sad and bitter gr'et
For the Joyous days gone by

The Kind Of POrk Ne,O Korkers get Il
eat--A Horrible Picture.

A New York correspondent Of the Ska
neatles Columbian, gives the following hor-
rifying picture of an establishment in that
city, at the corner of 10th street and 10Th
avenue. We imagine that few city resi-.
idents were aware that such, an enormous
nuisance existed even in their suburbs:
A few days since, while strolling in the
suburbs of the city, in the vicinity of the
track of the Harlem River railroad, inter.
secting 40th street,my attention was drawn
towards an odly shaped cart, on which
was a dead horse. Ihad heard that there
was class of people who make business
of drawing off dead animals, and | felt a
curiosity to know what was done with the
carcasses, therefore kept a good "look
out," and saw it enter an enclosure where
there was number Of old wooden build.
ings and sheds, also alarge brick chimney
termed ga stack"
! approached the entrance, over which
was sign, depot for Dead Animals. -
In few moments a man came out, and
asked him what he did with the horses. -
He said, "we skin 'em and bile 'em up
Come in, ifyou wish to see how it is done. 3
As soon as | entered the gateway, | saw
large piles of bones, comprising skulls, leg.
bones, ribs, etc, which were very white
and clean, and were piled with great reg
ularity, the skulls and other large bones
forming the outside and the smaller bone!
filled in the centre. The piles were abou
ten feet in height. There was also a goo,
collection Of dogs chained up in the enclo
sure, intended, probably, to watch tn,
premises. | turned towards the building!
and the first thing that met my eye was

Here were TWO Irish boys, "cutting and
flashing a an old rse to get his skin of.
few feet distant were another set, cutting
up another mass of purified horse flesh
and throwing the pieces into large caId-
ron, under which was a fierce fire. Far
ther off were masses of flesh in the stages
of disease and puiretaction.
Inquired of the owner how many AMI
mails they manufactured in day. II re-
piled.
I'VE keep three carts and horses, and
they are busy all day, carting the animals
from all parts Of the city; and it was as
much as his men could DO to cut 'em up as
fast as they came Inquired, How do
you ascertain where the horses are ?--do
you keep an office down town. Yes
he replied, we have an office in the street
inspectors Office, at the City Hall, and
that is the place where people who have
sick or dead animals make their report.
| asked, DO you get paid for removing
carcasses ? 'Oh, Move generally pay
for the privilege. If the animal is in good
order and has not been sick very long, we
give dollar for him; but if, on the con-
trary, he is poor and thin, we give fifty
cents. ! have been in this business seven
years, and my father followed it before |
commenced. When my father commen-
ced he was almost alone in this line of busi-
ness. At that time they were paid for ta~

much competition that we pay for the priv

there were besides his. He said seven.
