MECHANICAL GENIUs.-The Paris
Patrie contains the following: "a
youth, aged eighteen, belonging to a re-
spectacle family of Paris, had, about a
year ago, been condemned for theft to
five years imprisonment. His conduct
in prison being quite exemplary, he
gained the good opinion Of the Direc-
tor, who soon remarked in him a Pecu-
liar aptness for mechanical contrivances.
A few days ago he begged the Director
to tell him what o'clock it was, that he
might set his watch. "You have a
watch, theu?" asked the Director. "Only
since yesterday, sir, said the prisoner; /;
and to the astouishment Of the Director,
produced one made of straw! The lit
tie masterpiece is two-and-ahalf inches
in diameter, about half-an-inch thick,
and viii 90 Tor three hours without wind
ing up. The dialplate is of paper, and
a pretty straw chain is attached to the
whole. The instruments the youth had
at his command were two needles, a pin,
a little straw, and thread. Esveral per-
sons of distinction, moved by his sur
prising genius for mechanics are endeav-
oriug to obtain his liberation.

HoIpISG THE MIRROR Up TO NATURE-A
SCOOP ONE" on a DRAMATIC CRITIC.-Ihe
dramatic critic of enc of our dailies has
rendered himself quite unpopular among
actors and actresses by reason OF his cap
tious style of criticism. He seems to bend
all his energies-so they say--to the dis
covery of flaws, and rarely recognizes a
merit in any dramatic performance. Of
one actor at Selwyn's he had repeatedly
said that he 1.-THE actor) never represented
actual personages on the stage-that, III
fine, he did not "hold the mirror up to ma
ture." Opportunity offering in this bur
lesque, Mr.. Ketchum, the actor referred to,
determined to fill the critics bill for once.
Being cast for the part of Michael Pentold,
Ketchum got himself up in an almost per-
feet counterpart, so far as costume goes, OF
the critic Whose personal appearance and
style of dress, by the way, are somewhat
remarkably. The imitation approached
very nearly fac simile-dress, gait, and
manner. Indeed, the disguise was so tho
rough that when ketchum came on the
stage, dressed for his part, just before
the curtain rose, Mr.. Selwyn, stand
ing at little distance, catching sight
of him, gave orders that Mr.. - (the
critic) should leave the stage at once. When
the curtain rose and Ketchum went On
there was moments hush, and majority
of the audience, recognizing the portrait,
burst into peals of laughter, which for some
time hindered the progress Of the play.
The original of the portrait sat very near
the stage, and divided with MIR. ketchum
the attention of q thousand eyes.-BoSton

An ApvocArE FOR BIRDs.-The Cardinal
Archbishop Of Bordeaux, in the midst OF
great cares, resulting from the charge Of an
immense diocese, has found it not incon-
s;stens with his important duties to devote
much time in denouncing the insensate war
against small birds. His Eminence takes
the ground that if an adherence of cruelty
does not supply motive, sels-interest ougns
to afford reason for our extending Protec-
t;on to them. AS we stated lately in The
World, France has suffered heavily from
insects, which would have been destroyed
had the little birds been permitted to exist.
In addition to what we then stated, we may
odd that last year the damage done to the
orons in France exceeded Ell 100000, and
in one department alone $4,000 was paid
for the destruction of the pernicious Der
blanc, white worm, from which is pro-
duced locust. The Cardinals EFFORTS nave
produced some good, and officials have oeen
appointed in every parish to protect the
birds and their eggs.
