Ha- A Paris letter to the London Star notes a
mong the incidents of the day the reform which
the Austrian band has sueceededin efecting in the
martial music of France. For the last sixteen
years the Parisans had no other patriotic air than
'Partant pour Ia Syrie," but the other evening,
at the Cirque de pImperatrice, the demand for
"La MarseIlaise" was so pressing so violent, that
the Austrian band, yielding to the shrieks of the
people, struck up that splendid, that most warike
oftunes, the melody of which went ringing through
the house as spirit-moving strain, with all its
bursts of rich harmony and its mournful wailings.
Truly the enthusiasm of the public was indescriba-
BILE. Thousands of people were there exulting in
the harmony of that long suppressed song, beating
time to its rhythm and shouting in their fuheart-
edness of admiration. The correspondent says
II understand now why the present government
breads allowing this popular and military air be-
ing played and sung in the streets Of Paris or the
towns of France. The effect of it is most STIR
ring and irresistible I understand also why, in
the Crimea as well as in Italy; why, at Malakof as
well as at Soferino why, on the barricades as well
as on the battlefield, this national tune, this ex
citing ditty, produced such exultation among the
combatants. Of all national songs Of all marching
airs, none has more maddening effect than La
Marseillaise; none is more appropriate to awake
ideas of slaughter, of vengeance Of sabre cashing,
bullets flying, horsemen charging, and standards

HOW MusKRATs SWIM UNDER THE q ssI, ICE.

hOW uUShhAlS . SWlm UNOEh JhE ICEs
Muskrats have curious method Of travelling
long distances under the ice. In their Winter ex-
cursions to their feeding grounds, which are fire.
quently at great distances from their abodes, they
take in breath at starting, and remain under the
water as long as they can. They then rise up to
the ice, and breathe out the air in their lungs,
which remains in bubbles against thelower surface
Of the ice. They wait till this air RECEIVERS oxygen
from the water and ice, and then take it again. and
go on till the operation has to be repeated In this
way they can travel almost any distance, and live
any length of time under the ice. The hunter
sometimes takes advantage of this habit Of the
muskratin the following manner: Whenthe marsh-
Les and ponds where the muskrats abound are
first frozen oVer and the be is thin and clear, on
striking into their houses with his hatchet for the
purpose Of setting his traps, he frequently sees
whole family plunge into the water and swim away
under the ice. Following one of them for some
distance, he sees him come up to renew his breath
in the manner above described. After the animal
has breathed againsttheiee, and before he has time
to take his bubble in again. the hunter strikes with
his hatchet directly over him, and driyeshim away
from his breath. In this case he browns in swim
ming few rods, and the hunter, cutting hole in
the ice, takes him out Mink, otter, and beaver
travel under the ice in the same way and hunters
have frequently told me of taking otterin the man
ner have described when these animals visit the
houses of the muskrat for prey. The Irapper's

A WORD ABOUT COOKING. Cooking is not

A WORD ABOUT COOKING. is moi
merely ''the art of providing dainty bits to fatter
out the ribs" as the scornful old proverb has it
it is the art of turning every morsel to the bes
use it is the exercise of SKILL thought, ingenuity
to make every morsel of food yield the utmost
nourishment and pleasure of which it is capable
To do this, or to egslate for the doing Of it, does
not depend on the amount Of money spent; the
same qualities of character are demanded, whether
the house keeping be on large or small scale
A woman who is not essentially kind hearted can
not be comfortable housekeeper woman who
has not judgment, frmness, forethought, and gen.
eral good sense cannot manage her house prudent
ly or comfortably, no matter what amount Of mon
ey she may have at her command woman who
has not an eye for detecting and remedying disor-
derliness and carelessness cannot keep her house
fresh and pleasant, no matter how much money
she may spend on furniture and upholstery. 1t is
not money but management, that is the great
requisite in procuring comfort in household ar
rangements Of course; nobody asks impossible

IL uHu HCoihy pue ehS
woman with limited means may make her things
as perfect after their kind as the woman with am
pie means, only she will be obliged to put more OF
herself into the management, and that element OF
personality has charm which no appointments
made through the best staff of servants can pos
sess-it is luxury that money cannot buy, and
generally hinden. The luxury of completeness
must always depend on the individual skill and care
of the mistress. That thing should be perfect
after its kind is all that can be required Bacon
and venison lie at opposite ends of the economical
scale; but if the woman whose means allow her to
procure bacon only is careful to have it so dressed
and served that it is as good as bacon ought to be,
she has attained the only perfection required at her
hands; and it is the higher qualities brought to
bear on a common action which give to the result
q beauty and value not its own. We are all so
much creatures of imagination, that we think more
of the signifed, than Of the actual fact When
a man sees his table nicely set out, he believes in
the goodness of his dinner in way that would be
impossible with the selfsame dinner on a soiled
tablecloth with slovenly arrangement.

A HORRIBLE CANNIBAL SToRY,-A horrible

A HORRIBLE CANNIBL SToRY.-A horrible
tragedy is reported from the Island Of Fiji South
Seas. The Rev. Thomas Baker, with an assistant
missionary and six native teachers went to visit
some inland tribes, and he and his party were bru-
tally murdered by one of the tribes, who are des-
cribed as the most confirmed cannibals. The writer
says: "In this town (Longtown) there lives noto-
rious cannibal, with whom had little converse
ton. He pointed me to APPLE of human bones in
thefork of an orange tree under which we were st-
ting, and assured me that he had eaten the men
of which each bone there was representative, and
that he had kept these bones as memento Of his
cannibaIsm. Many other things did this inhuman
wretch make known to me, and his countenance,
and more than ordinary worn teeth, only helped to
convince me that he had literally been bone,
crusher. To have listened to this mans state.
