COnScrIpliOn in France.

The following account OF the conscrlp-
ton in France is from the England United
Service Magazine. 1t is in the way here
described that the vast army Of France is
repIenished. The military lottery occurs
every year. The annual contingent Of
troops levied thereby, varies according to
the necessity Of the state, being in war
times very high, and in peaceable times
comparatively low-at all times, however,
it amounts TO at least twenty thousand
men, that being the number who annually
receive their dismission, their term Of SER
vice having expired. A census Of all the
departments is taken every year, and the
number Of men required is divided in equal
proportions among all the provinces of the
empire. The names Of all the young men
between the ages Of twenty and thirty,
both years inclusive, are then described on
the conscription lists Of their respective 10
calities, and every attempt to evade cou-
scription is punished by an Imprisonment
Of from one month to one year, while any
one aiding or abetting fugitive from the
dreaded ballot is liable to the same penal
ty. The scene which takes place at the
drawing is one Of much picturesque anima-
tion. Groups of the finest youths of a
wide neighborhood, with, generally, their
fathers and mothers, relatives and friends,
are assembled ia the spacious hall Of the
town-house. The Mayors, Projects, and
Sub-prefects are there to receive them,
with, usually, several officers quartered in
the district On every face there is an ex-
preston Of hope and fear, anxiety and ex-
element; and as each advances toward the
: fatal urn and draws the paper deciding bis
future destiny, all the spectators, as well as
the parties Immediately concerned, feel the
most lively interest. Those who draw a
higher number than of recruits required
are exempt, while those who draw lower
are condemned to serve their country as
militares for the space of seven years.
Some are exempted, These exceptions in
clude all below the height Of five feet FIVE
inches; all criminals; all who are the sab
ject Of any physical incapacity; theteldest
Of orphans; the only son, or eldest son, or
grandson Of widow, or Of father of sew
enty years OF age; certain classes Of stu
deats in the public schools, including all
SuoSe WuO uufo CNiiiVu w buO Btoab PiiHVo
Of the institute, or of the university. None,
however, are exempt from the ballot; all
must appear aud draw their lots, and this
over, such as have objections to urge send
them to the Council Of Revision, which is
appointed for the purpose. Were it not
for this close examination many would
eVade the common national responsibility,
and some would intrude themselves into
the service whom the service would other
wise reject. As it is, the instances are nu-
merous Of persons who mutilate themselves
by chopping of finger. or who raises
sores on their bodies by piercing their flesh
and drawing strings through the wound,
that they may be reported by the medical
inspectators in6rm, and unit for military
life.

The JAPAFEsE LANGUAGE.-The japanese
write, like the Chinese, in columns from the
top to the bottom Of the paper, beginning
at the right-hand side. The character is
less fantastic and far more running than
the Chinese. There is indeed not the
slightest similarity between the languages,
the one being monosyIlabic and the other
polysylIabic The Japanese words are Of
ten Of uneonscionable length, but the sounds
arc musical, and not difficult to initiate;
whereas the Chinese words, though Of one
syllable, consists generally Of gulp. OF
grunt, not attainable by those whose ears
have not become thoroughly demeralized
by a long residence in the country. We
learned more japanese words in week
than we had Of Chinese in a year; and in
making small, rough vocabulary, found
no difficulty in SO alloeating the letters ol

NOVEL WHEELBARRow.-One Of the work
men employed in the gardens of the Tuil-
leries, in Paris, has brought out a new
wheelbarrow which has attracted consider
able attention. The two legs of the bar
roWere replaced by two wheels which are
somewhat smaller that the usual running
one in front, and these are secured immedi'
ately under the body or box Of the barrow
The handles are raised so as to be on O
level with the hands Of the workman; and
thus, upon level road, slight push is al
that is necessary for the transport of the
heaviest load. The three wheels being al
most close together, the act of turning the
barrow in the smallest space becomes al
easy as possible. This improvement will
certainly add greatly.to the durability O.
the barrow, an instrument which most per
sons seem to consider perfect in its present
form. In resting with a barrow, aftei
wheeling heavy load, it is too often al
lowed to drop heavily upon its legs, auc
these are thus frequently broken. Tht
Wheel-legs Of the French barrow will pre-
vent breakage from this cause.

DT Speaking Of the "sex of eggs" a
correspondent of an English paper afirm'
that he learned whilst in France among
the best poultry breeders, that the long
narrow eggs were set as male eggs or
those that would produce male chickens il
hatched out, and that the round dumpy
ones would produce females.
