A Baboon Family.

The following curious account of a haboon
family is translated from recent French work
by N. Boitard, for Goodrch's illustrated Natu-
raj History:
There have been and still are in the mena-
Eerie OF the Garden of Plants, Paris, q number
Of baboons, and four years ago, female who
had a young one furnished one of the most
amusing aud singular spectacles / ever wit
messed. She was placed With 1t in cage, near
the one she had formerly occupied with several
other animals Of the same species. The infant
baboon was hideously ugly, but she lavished
upon It the most tender caresses. When il was
eight days cid, the door Of communication was
opened, and her malo entered. The mother,
seated in the middle Of the cage, held the young
heir in her arms, precisely as nurse would do
snder similar circumstances The happy father
approached and embraced his mate with French
gallantry upon each side Of the face; he then
kissed the little one, and sat down opposite to
the mother, so that their knees touched each
other. They then began to move their lips
with rapdity, taking the young one from each
others arms, as il they were having . most
animated conversation concerning it. .
The door was again opened, and the baboon
friends entered one after another, each en-
hracng the mother, who, however, would not
allow them to touch the young one. They
seated themselves in circle and moved their
lips. as If felicitating the happy couple on the
arrival of the son and heir, and perhaps finding
in 1t q marvellous resemblance to either the
father or mother. This scene was very much
like that which often takes place in the human
family on similar occasions, except that we
suspect the fluctuations were more heartfelt
and genuine on the part Of the brutes, than on
that Of their more favored prototypes.
All the balloons wished to caress the young
one; but no sooner did one Of them put forward
his hand, than good slap from the mother
warned him Of his indiscretion. Those who
were placed behind her stretched their hand
out silly, slid ID under her arm and succeeded
sometimes, to their great joy, in touching the
little one without the mother perceiving II,
particularly when she was engaged in CONVEX
satisn. But smart correction seon taught
them that their indiscretion was observed, and
they quickly retreated. 1t was evident that
the monkey mother thoroughly acquainted with
the requirements Of her position, knew perfectly
well how to divide her attention between her
guests and her infant charge.

SHADOW s.

An old clerk sat on his high-leg'd stool,
Surrounded by papers and books,
And he thought as he piled the revolving rule,
OF days gone by, when boy at school
he dreamt OF seeking merchants goal
As he formed his 'trammels and hooks.D
he thought how he planned golden way,
road TO fortune and power
How every scheme cast gilded ray,
What untold wealth his hands should sway,
As he basxed in the light OF fortunes day,
Nor looked for cleaning hour.
But alas for the fiction that fancy weaves
As a nest for the innocent prey;
How sadly her gilded tint deceives;
How often her victim caught, she leaves;
No penitent tear the past repreves;
AlasI the unfortunate day.
He thought with competence well secured,
A beautiful country home to rear:
But see him still in the city immured.
His youthful Ambition aas now cured,
And his withercd heart, to reverse inured,-
His only home is here.
He trusted the future to bring him gain,
And servants 10 do his work
But still he walks through snow and rain,
And his head Is often racked with pain,
Tho alacki it's not for him to complain,
For he is only clerk
The old clerk sat on his high leg'd stool,
Surrounded by papers and books,
And faster he piled the revolving rule
While he thought how could become such 70
As Of money TO become such perfect tool
When into the future he looks.

The AborIgInes OF Australia.

The natives of Australia are peculiar race.
They are briefly described by a writer in the
New York Post. They are broad shouldered
and brawny armed, with chest and stomach
well developed, the latter rather too much so.
The muscles Of the legs and thighs are strange
ly attenuated, yet strong and wiry. This gives
them q singular appearance. Although black,
they have the Caucasian features, with the ex-
ception, perhaps, Of the lips Of some OF the fe-
males, which are like those of the Africans.
Their hair ID coarse, thick, strong and wavy,
yet not at all kinky. Though once more nu-
merous, they number now only about four
thousand souls. They possess fair aptitude
in acquiring book knowledge, but do not care
to possess any. Religion they have none. The
Wesleyan Missionaries labored with them long
and earnestly, but with so little success that
they became disheartened, and gave up the eff
fort. Their sense Of smell IL exquistely deli
cate. By it's aid they can tell tree containing
an opossum. and how long since he assembled It.
Their perceptive faculties are very acute.
Their wives are cruelty treated, being eom-
PEELED to bear all the burdens and perform all
the labor, while their lords and masters are
leunglng about the camp In inglorious ease.
They have great repugnance to labor.
All efforts TO civilze them are fruitlsss.
Children have been adopted in their earliest
infancy by respectable families, and have been
educateu ana naDltuated In alI the uSageH OF
enlightened communities ; but, about the age
seventeen they generally prove themselves un-
able to resist their innate love of a wandering
life, by decamplng with some strolling vaga-
bonds Of their own nation. They then throw
of all the manners and customs of the whites
and In great measure again become the ver-
est savages. The cause Of their decadence
which Is quite rapid, Is the practice of infant-
eide, which Ia increasing in spite Of the efforts
Of the settlers to prevent it. They seem to
comprehend their degraded condition, and say
that their "piccannnies" are not worth raising
They are wandering, unsettled race, never
remaining more than two or three days in one
place. They have never yet built house, but
live in huts which they form by leaning wide
piece Of bark against two sticks. They cook
their game by throwing II into the fire, without
any preparation. The refuse Is taken out and
given to the dogs. They have spears, which
they throw with accuracy, by means of short
stick, with the head followed out, which they
hold in their hand. They are a race Of beings
very inferior to most others, and thsy seem 10
prefer determination to enlightenment.
