purchasers and eaters of this deadly POI

of these women to eat an ounce IN very

SIEGES OF PARIS.

From the London Globe Oct. 1s.

From the London Globe Oct 16.
In attributing the siege of Paris to the
Ecumenical Council, Father Hyacinthe
chivalrously dispensed with history; but he
certainly might have colored, buttressed
his unadorned, lettering proposition with
copious illustrations from her repertory of
incontrovertible facts.
History recounts the exploits of armies
with eagle eyes aud talons, coveting claw
ing beautiful Paris The sieges of Paris,
faliible and infalhole, successful and I'M
successful, have amounted to dozen; the
Ecumenical Councils received as infalhble,
to dozen and half. It Is really inter
esting to notice few of the instances in
which an ecumenicaI council, as Father
Hyaclnthe puts it, has been 1.-The cause, :"
or, as We prefer to term it, has been the
proximate antecedent Of Partisan siege.
In 451 sat the Council OF Chalcedon. In
463 Childric [. besieged Paris, and drove
the Romans out OF the city.
In 1415 met the Council of Constance.
Ia 1920 the English took Paris, and held
it for sixteen years, Notwithstanding an at
tempt on the part of Charles VII. to re-
duce it in 1927. The unusual length of
possession according to the chain of
reasoning Of which 2nquestionably Father
Ryaclnthe has forged The first lnk-was
of course proportional to the abnormal
turpitude OF the chastis EN- snt, bringing
council which was monstrols enough to
rob the laity of the eucharist.
In 1911 was convoked the Council of
Pisa. Ia 1886 the Count of Charolais,
with hostile force worried the walls of
Paris, but he did not take the city. Father
Hyac inthe knows very well why. The fact
was that the Council of Pisa did just what
our ne. Y CatnoIc reIormer would nave de-
lighted to do himself. Il bridled "that
frenzied pontif, Julius II. OF course no
punishment was inflicted, seeing that no
harm had been done. The Church OF
Rome had acted wisely. The city OF Paris
was, therefore, sale.
Now, ii Paris is besieged in 1870 simply
because knot Of venerable prelat as
semble at Rome-it the physical throes Of
one city spring from the monstrous men
tai conception of another it remains for
Father Hyacinthe to show why we should
otherwise interpret as cause aud effect the
antecedence and subseque1ce Of the two
phenomena, as they repeat themselves, in
history

treasury department, of the petty discount
made for infnitesImal muiiation of bills.
4 bank officer sends thousand dollars in
greenbscks to Washington for exchange,
and a reduction is made of ten. twenty or
fifty cents. The excuse tor this deduc-
ton, which is more annoying than the loss
OF 8 much greater sum, is that there may
be some psople who make dishonest liv-
ing by mutilating and patching together
the pieces OF national promissory notes
But there is neither warrant for the de-
duction in law, nor any sound reason
for it. There is propriety in clipping a
part of the expressed value of light
weight coin, but none whatever for apply
ing the same rule to mutilated bill. A
coin may be clipped, and the metal melted
and recoined. 4 note is promise TO pay,
and the size of the piece of paper on
which il is printed is of the smallest con-
sequence. If all the essential parts of the
bill are present-the promise, the sigma

referred to is microscopic: the vexation to

a Rare Animal.

A gentleman who came down on the
Farragut from Fort Buford, says the Sioux
City Daily Times, gives the following in
formation regarding q species Of animal
hitherto unknown on this continent:
Sir John E. PackenLam, an officer in
the English army, who has been spending
the last year in her Maiestys Northern
Provinces, arrived at Fort Buiord with an
animal Of rare beauty, and never before
caught on this continent, nor has it been
known till late years that this species ex-
listed in this country. 1t is Of the same
family as the giraffe. or camelopard, of
Africa, and is know to naturalists as the
Tygomelia. They ale known to inhabit
the high table lands OF Cashmere and Hin
doc Rosh, but are more frequently seen on
the high peaks OF the Hinalaya Noun
tains.
The animal was taken when quite young,
and ID thoroughly demesticated, and fol-
lows its keeper like dog. 1t is only four
months old, and ordinarily stands about
i've feet high, but is capable OF raising its
head two feet, which makes the animal
seven feet when standing erect. 1t is of q
dark brown or mouse color, large project
ing eyes, with slight indications Of horns
growing out This wonderful animal was
caught north of Lake Athabusca on the
waters or Mckenzie's river Il has a craw
similar to the pelican, by which means it
can carry subsistence for several days. It
is very fleet, being able to outfoot the fast
est horse in hscountry. The black dap
per spots on the rich brown color make it
one OF the most beautiful animals in exist
ence-more beautiful than the leopard of
the Chinese jungle.
Sir John did not consider it safe to trans
port his pet by water down the Missouri
river, fearing the uncertain navigation and
the great change of climate from the Man
itabo to the sunny south. He has, there
fore, wisely concluded to go by way Of St
Paul, Mimi.
The commander at Fort Buford furnish
es him an escort for the trip. He will
then proceed through Canada to Montreal
where he will snip his charge to England

4 Yale Mysterv-The Hidden Bible.

he had concealed it. It was OF course too
late to recover it, and nothing was said or

built IN iust between the two central win
