"OUR RECKLESSNESS."

The following remarks, by the Lancas-
Ger IltelHgencer, upon this subject are
both true and sad:
"We have learned to hear of the
slaughter of hundreds and thousands of
men without so much as shudder. The
daily announcement of skirmishes, in
which from ten TO hundred men, full OF
lusty life, are hurried out of existence, Is
disposed Of in a brief sentence, short
telegram, read by millions, and forgotten
slmos, AS soon AS read. Scenes OF horror
the recital of which, if occurring IN lhuia
or Ethiopia, would have made our very
blood curdlc before we had become I'M
bruted bv this horrible civil war, now
moves ms 10 longer We have become as
b!ood-thirsty as the veriest painted devil
Of an Indian who once secured the forests
which grew where our cities now stand
Oar breaches are no more ministers OF
the gospel of the God of peace. The
churches of the land rcek with the slcken-
;nr odors of slaughter, and the occupants
IF many of the sacred desks bawl from
Sabbath to Sabbath, like bowling dervish-
ss for blood.
"We are bloodthirsty, thoughtless,
reckless. Our cities were never gayer
,han they are now. The theatres are
crowded nightly, and all the haunts OF
pilded crime are filed to overfiowing
Extravagance is the order of the day,
rzudy equipagcs, turn out OF vulgar ar
is,ocrats, whose purses have grown pie
tho ic from unlimited pubic plumber,

rcd fingers and arms unused to such
sdorrnments brown stone fronts and mar
bic palaces spring up, at enormous cost,
and if by the stroke Of an enchanter's
wand they are filled with gorgeous up
holstery, and the occupants rcvel i'll lux

1--WE are running a wild race of bloody
deeds, of national and social extrava-
eance, Of folly and Of crime, which is the
wonder of tie world The nations of the
rar;h lock on in utter amazemcnt, while
they predict a disastrous end TO this mad
career. Is there not good reason to fear

LIME AND ANIMAL LIFE

moorman caught young alligator
IN his fishing kraal in the Matura river.
and ] went to see it. 1t was alive, and
10 all appearance there was no reason
why, If left alone, it should not grow up
10 alilgator's estate. Its length was about
three and half feet. Thinking that this
would be good opportunity for testing
the correctness of what had heard in
the north Of the island about the remarka-
oe effect of lime upon the alligator, l
asked man to bring me some, on which
he procured from nelghboring house a
lump OF the chunamb, or lime prepared
from shells, which the natives are in the
naolt OF chewing along with the nut of
me areca palm, and the leaves of the be-
el cFeeper. The lime had previously been
moistened with water. Having opened
The Jaws OF our unfortunate victim-an
operation TO which it submitted with ex-
emPlary resignation (when it found it
could not prevent it(-we inserted. as far
oack as the opening into the throat, a
lump OF chunamb about as large as a
plgeon's egg, after which we put the ami
nal into the water. Immediately it turn
GU over on its sides and then on its back,
and appeared paralyzed soon its eyes
closed, and thought it was dead. After
a'out five minutes it revived a little. I

in the evening / rode to where 1t had been
experimental on, when l found that it
was dead, and learnt that 1t had died
within two hours of my leaving. On ex-
amining its mouth, found that the lime
had not been swallowed but was still in
the throat Just where it had been placed.
I do not remember to have read in any
work on animals of this antipathy of the
alligator 10 lime; and it still remains to
be explained how it is that substance OF
that nature, specially prepared for the use
of man, and by him daily chewed. should
have so powerful and instantaneous an
effect upon an animal otherwise SO tena-
cious of life, when merely placed in the
mouth, without being swallowed. The
experiment may appear to have been a
cruel one, and yet, perhaps, 1t was the
speediest and easiest mode of killing the
alligator. | may now venture to state
that the Tramuls have an idea that if
bullet be filled with lime before firing at
an alligator, it will, wherever 1t penetrates,
cause wound that will prove mortal. l
have, since making the experiment related
above been told that it is not uncommon
for the Sinehaese TO fill the stomach of
bullock with lime, and to place it near
the aiigator's haunts, knowing that if he
swallow the lime death will ensue.-IiI-

FEARFUL EXPLOITS OF CAPT

with whom he kept up a running fight,
and severely wounded three of them.
