Ere the close Of the nineteenth century,
America will be couvulsed by one Of the
greatest revolutions the world ever wit
messed Should it succeed, her power and
prestige are lost; but should the Govern

A Curious SeENB IN PAnfs--A Dog
Thief Compelled 10 Kiss the Dog.--A Paris
letter writer tells this story: zsSsr
"a curious scene took place two even.
ings back on the Boulevard Beaumarchais.
A gentleman. an advocate, walking out ac'
compauied by his dog, an italian gray
houpd Of great beauty, suddenly missed
the animal, and, retraoing his steps, over
took man Of decent appearance with the
dog ia bis arms. The thief had already
removed the collar with the owners name
and address, and was endeavoring 10 stitie
the dogs cries Being man Of great
muscular power, the owner soon mastered
the delinquent, and then offered him the
choice either Of being consigned to the
police, or Of kneeling down in the street
and kissing the dog. The thief, after some
little hesitation, chose the latter alterna-
tive, and performed the ceremony in the
midst Of the laughter and jeers of the by
ISLANDERS. Satisfaction being thus given,
the owner was willing to allow the offender
to depart in peace, but, some sergeats de
uiNe coming up, insisted on taking him
before the Commissary of Police of the
quarter. The gentleman accompanied the
party to the office, and when there explain-
ed to the Commissary that he had acted in
virtue Of an old law Of the Burgundian
Parliament, never yet abrogated, contain
ing Tit. x, cap. 8, art. 81 q disposition
thus worded: Fa#
s'If any man has stolen a grehound
(noltrahuns) or a segusiave (segutsum--a
| particular sort of hound used by the Gauls
for hunting the boarl or lurcher (petrun-
culum,) we ordain that the guilty party be
obliged either to kiss the animal before the
whole people, or to pay 6ve soils Of gold to
the owner of the dog, and two soils as fine"
s'The advocate concluded by interceding
for the culprit, on the ground that he had
satisfied the conditions of the law; bat the
commissary, recognizing the man as an
old offender, sent him to the Prefecture.

The WORN NUgsANoE On OUR TREES
That coal oil will cause instant death to
those pests in the shape of worms which
ravage our fruit trees, is proved beyond a
doubt.
Last season the Horticultural Society in
stituted series Of experiments with coal
oil as an insect exterminator, and it was
proved to be the most valuable article for
this purpose yet discovered. A brush of
tiff feathers made, and portions of the in
fected trees smeared with the oil, in addI-
ton to placing . small quantity on the
nests, and death ensues. The effect OF the
oil on the pests seems miraculous, one
touch OF the deadly substance to the nests
spreading dosolation in all directions.
