Carrier Pigeon. in the spy service.

One of our French correspondents
writes The last discovery is that the
means OF communication between spies
and their directing bureau are carrier
pigeons. One Of these birds was picked
up in the town Of Gisors a short time
ago. The poor thing had fallen from
exhaustion, and being very handsome,
was cared for by his captor, who, on
handling him, found beneath one wing
an inscription in German characters,
traced with indelible ink on the feathers,
which, when translated into French,
read: 'CHAL. 100. EMP. RET. The
pigeon was retained, and the authorities
have put a stop to those matches which
GUM and the southern provinces of
France. When we bear in mind that
there are ten thousand of these
trained birds which could convey intelli-
gence in six hours from Paris to any of
the frontier towns of Belgium, there can
be little surprise felt at the French pro-
hibition of the sport.
In America, few persons have any
idea Of the fervor with which these
pigeon races are kept up. Contests
from the extreme southern provinces to
Brussels, in which one thousand or fifteen
pigeons are sent off, and in
which the first prize is service of plate
given by the Belgian King, are not un-
common and minor races of three hun
dred or four hundred miles are OF daily |
occurrence during the season. So al
though partridge shooting is forbidden in |
the department of the Seine, it is per-
fectly admissible to exterminate any of
the feathered tribe which bears the
slightest resemblance to a pigeon, be it
wild or tame. According to French law
the shooting season is regularly opened
by an edict signed by the Prefect, who
makes it coincide with the gather
ing in ec the crops; but although it was
published as usual this year, an after
thought told Mr.. Chevreau that it would
be better to save all the powder for the
Prussians, and a second decree suspended
the execution of the first until France
was freed from her enemies; whereupon
a wag wrote under the heading of the
original proclamation, which was, 0urer-
tme de Ia Chase, the words, Aur Prus.

1t is standing tradition Of the Mag
ara Indians, shared to a great extent
now by the white people in the vicinity
of the falls, that the Great Spirit, or
Thunderer of Waters, must have annu-
ally four victims sacrificed to his power.
Curiously enough, year seldom passes
during which at least four persons are
not drowned, either in the falls or in
the whirlpool below. This year an old
man of more than seventy years stepped
into the breakers above the falls. and,
losing his hold was swept over the fright
full cataract. At DeYaux College, a stu
dent, daring his companions to wade
into the whirlpool, was sucked into its
terrific eddies, and instantly disappeared,
to be seen no more. A few days after
ward a drunken father adventured, with
his two children and a reprobate com
panion, into a boat above the rapids.
and in their drunken orgies the little
ones were thrown out and drowned,
though the two drunken wretches es-
capped. SO far, therefore, the Indians
believe implicitly in the fourfold sacri-
fice, and each years disasters confirm
their belief

what does Reason saw!

The little mongoose when bitten by a
deadly serpent resorts to a certain plant
eats of it. and escapes the effect of the
poison. That is instinct. Human beings
on the other hand, must depend on reason
and experience in selecting the means of
protecting health and life against Unwhole-
some influences. Now, what does reason
say on this vital subject Does it not tell
US that to invigorate and purify the system
is the best way to protect it against the
invisible poison which generates disease ?
Surely it does. The next question is, what
guide shall we follow in choosing medici-
nal safegard Reason replies let your
monitor be experience. Well, the expert
ence of eighteen years comprised in one
unbroken series Of satisfactory testimonials
assures US that HOstetter's Stomach Bitters
posses streng hening, regulating and an
tiseptic properties which are not combined
in the same happy proportions. in any other
preparation extant This therefore is the
antidote to which reason bids US resort
when our health is imperilled either by the
malaria which produces epidemic disorders,
or by any ether cause, whether Inherent
and constitutional or connected with our
habits, occupations and pursuits.
The venem of a noxious reptile is scarce
ly more subtle and dangerous THAI that
which turks in foul air and impure water.
To escape the fevers, bilious disorders,
disturbances fthe bowels, and other serious
maladies produced by these insalubrieus
elements, it is absolutely necessary that the
stomach and all the secretive organs should
be, so to speak, in a robust condition. Upon
the amount of resistance which the vital
system can oppose to the deleterious infu-
ences that assail it, the safety of the health
depends, and it is because the great vege-
table invigorant imparts energy and regu-
| larity to the most important functions of
! the body, that it can be recommended and
guaranteed as an invaluable preventive
medicine.
