LIONS REFUGE IN AN ARAB TENT
When the vast plains near Jemmapes were
converted into lake of fire by an accident
a magnificent lion, not knowing where to
spend the night, directed his course toward
n msEing the horses, mules, buIiosks, $ Sr sheer, y e.,
ard other animals there collected fly
before him. A tent being open, the creature
took refuge therein, to the horror of the
family that inhabited it, and crouched down
on the ground just before the entrance. The
Arabs lay perfectly still, not even daring to
Sigh, or scarcely, in fact to breathe We
may believe that the prayers offered up by
them to the Prophet in that long night,
during which the lion remained without
moving, but still awake, were truly ardent.
When the first streak Of daylight caused the
FIRE in the plain to lose its brlliancy, the
animal rose up, gave gentle grOwl, which
was, perhaps, his mode of saying adieu, and
walked off toward the mountains.

to look after him. He got so fond Of the boy
he would not take notice of the Prince.
The morning they came into Plymouth, the
Prince gave the boy G5 and took the dog out
of the ship; but as fast as they did so the dog
jumped on board again. The Prince was at
last obliged to take the boy to London, and
him fib and a suit of Clothes. - He re returned ed

whenhe had to be sent for, because the dog

MARINE SPLESDoRs.--When the sea is per-
fectly clear and transparent, it allows the
eye to distinguish objects at very great
depth The crystalline clearness of the
Caribbean Sea excited the admiration of
Columbus, who, in the pursuit of his great
discoveries ever retained an open eye for the
beauties of nature "In passing over these
splendidly adorned grounds" says Schopf,
"where marine life shows itself in an end
less variety Of FORMS, the boat, suspended
over the purest crystal, seems to float in air,
so that person unaccustomed to the scene
easily becomes giddy. On the clear sandy
bottom appear thousands of sea- stars, sea-
uTchins, molluscs, and fishes of brilliancy
of color unknown in our temperate seas.
Burning red, intense blue, lively green aud
gold nyellow perpetualy vary; the specta
tor floats over groves Of sea-plants, gorgonias,
coTals, alcyoniums, fabellums and sponges,
that afford no less delight to the eye, and are
no less gently agitated by the heaving waters,
than the most beautiful garden on earth
when a gentle breeze passes through the
waving boughs." 1.-THE Sea and its Wonders.

Remarkable Incident and Supernatural
Dream

This remarkable incident happened in the
autumn of last year TO the Russian Princess
w, resident in Paris and general favor
ite, who, one rainy day, was sitting beside
the fire IN her bedroom nursing violent
attack of neuralgia, when she suddenly be-
held on one Of the panels of the room-hupg
with draperies of gray silk-a shadowy ap-
pearance, as though projected from magic
lantern-at FIRST dim, but gradually becoming
distinct, and which at length represented q
forest not as a scene in picture, but with
all the color and relief Of nature. As she
gazed into this forest she saw a sportsman
moving cautiously, as though in pursuit of
game and then she saw boar lying in wait
for the hunter, upon whom it sprang as he
approached, throwing him down and tearing
him with its tusks; then there appeared
rushing through the trees group of hunts
men, who approached the wounded man
with gestures of despair. The boar sprang
out Of sight as the group closed round their
comrade and carried him from the wood,
leaving trail of blood as they disappeared.
The shrieks Of the Princess brought all
the people in the house to her room. "Therel
there my brother my poor brother" she
screamed, pointing to the hangings Nothing
wes to be seen in the direction she indicated,
and every one about her endeavored to calm
her. to persuade her that she had fallen
asleep and had been dreaming. But nothing
could convince her that what she had seen
could be a dream. She wept long and Bit
terly, and kept exclaiming, "My brother !
my poor brother !" This state of nervous
excitement was with difficulty controlled I;
and when she had recovered her self. COM
maDd, she wrote letter after letter to the
brother whom she had seen in her vision,
and who was in the Crimea, where he pos
sessed immense estates covered with woods,
in which he was in the habit of hunting.
A few weeks afterward, the Princess w.
learned that at the very time when she saw
this vision her brother was knocked down
by boar that he had been following in the
forest; that he was trampled and torn by the
animal exactly as she had seen, and was
carried of, apparently dead, by his friends,
who came up with him just in time to save
his life. The Prince, who is now in Paris,
i ill suffering from the wounds inflicted
by the tusks and hoofs of the animal, and
which are not yet entirely healed. 't

HANDSOME COMPLIMENT TO A WIFE.-The
following neat and beautiful reply was made
by the late Daniel o. Connell, in response to
toast given in compliment to his wife, who
was the object of his long and affectionate at
tachment. 1t was given at a political meet
ing. The English language could not fur
nish any thing moro touchingly tender and
graceful:
There are some topics of so sacred and
sweet nature, that they may be compre.
hended by those who are happy, but they
can not be possibly described by any human
being. All that l shall do is to thank you in
the name of her who was the disinterestet
choice of my early youth who was the ever.
cheerful companion of my manly years and
who is the sweetest solace of that scar and
yellow leaf" age at which | have arrived
In her name thank you; and this you may
readily believe; for experience, think, will
show to US all, that man can not battle anC
struggle with the malignant enemies of hi
country, unless his nest at home is warm aut
comfortable--unle the honey of human life
is commended by hand that he loves.

The Great Exhihitioa of 1902.

TheL andon papers announce that prepar-
atoms for another grand exhibition Of the
worlds art and industry, next year, are 60
ing forward with much spirit. The charter
granted by Parliament required subsrip-
ton of f250, 900 at the outstart, a contin-
gent fund to guaranty against any possible
losses. Ofthis the greater part was put
down in few days, and the FINES says that
half million would have been readily sub.
scribed, if it had been required The de-
sign of the new Crystal Palace has not yet
been made public; but it is expected to
transcend greatly that which was erected in
1851. The forthcoming exhibition will
have the effect Of diminishing, somewhat
the volume of European travel this season
but swelling it Immediately in 1869. The
financial failure and final conAagration Of
our Crystal Palace renders any hopes OF
such another display futile for twenty five
years at least But our annual stated aud
national fairs will increase in utility and in.
terest from year to year, and may thus com
pensate US for the loss.

REHIND THE MASK.

1t was an old distorted face.
An uncouth visage rough and wild
Yet from behind, with laughing grace,
Peeped the fresh beauty Of a child.
And so contrasting fair and bright,
1t made me of my fancy ask
If half earth's wrinkl I'd grimness might
Be but the baby In the mask.
Behind gray hairs and furrowed brow
And withered look that life puts on,
Each, as he wears It, comes to know
How the child hides, and is not gone.
For, while the inexorable years
To saddened features fit theis mould,
Beneath the work Of time and tears
Waits something that will not grow old
And pain ar petulance. and care
And wasted hope and sinful stain
Shape the strange guise the soul doth wear,
Till her young life looks forth again.
The beauty of his boyhood's SMILE
What human faith could fnd 1t now
In yonder man Of grief and guile
very Cain, with branded browY
Yet, overlaid and hidden, still
It lingers-of his life part;
And the scathed nine upon the hill
Holds the young fibres at his heart.
And happily round the Eternal Throne,
Heavens plying angels shall not ask
For that last look the world hath known,
But for the face behind the mask!

Remarkable Instance of Affecs
ton.

The Philadelphia North American re cords
the following singular case:
''In one compartment Of the cage in which
the animals perform at Van Amburgh's
beautiful menagerie in Chestnut street, Is q
huge, tawny Asistic lion. His room mate is
a black female tiger. The tiger is small COM
pared to the regal lion, but is highly valued
as geological curiosity, and the only speci-
men Of the black tiger N this country. She
was purchased by Mr.. Van Amburgh some
two years ago. and has lived with the lion
ever since. The attachment between the
two is something remarkable When other
animals are in the same cage, and any af.
font is offered to the little tiger, she runs
under the belly Of the lion. and woe be to
any animal that dares approach her. No mat
ter how hungry he may be, the lion never
touches his share of their daily meat until
his little chum has selected her share; and
even this he never entirely consumes until
certain that she has had enough. All the
animals are as fat as moles but this black
tiger is aldermatic in her proportions; and
no remedy exists for the matter. She has
been twice removed from the lion but until
she was returned the generous beast would
take neither food nor rest, while the frantic
manner in which he dashed at the bars was
a sufficient warning that further detention
of the tiger would be dangerous natter
Should his mate die, the lion would probably
pine to death. Once when she was taken
away, a lioness was substituted. The lion
instantly fell upon her, and at single bite
broke her spine and crushed some Of her ribs.
Careful nursing saved her life, and she is
still living, but with her hinder parts i'm
movably paralyged,i'
