REMEMBERING.

"Ob, DEAR exclaimed Hugh, 81 cant
remember this long, hard lesson;' and,
throwing down his book impatisn,ly, he
gased longingly out Of the window at
Harry Seaton and Will Carson playing
ball across the street.
"You can remember ever SO many er.
rands when your mother sends you down
town." said Cousin 4 hel, quietly.
"Ob, yes" replied Hugh, his face sud.
denly Frightening up: but that's diff
ferent from learning geography lesson" "
What is your lesson about" asked
Cousin Ethel, after little pause.
Hugh was so much interested in the
game going on across tho street that he
did not hear the question, until it was
arked the second time.
"Here 1t is," he replied. at last, hand
ing her the book "all Of Ohio, indiana,
aud Illinois. I've read it over twice, and
can't recite bit Of it"
"If your mother should send You down
the street after a spool of thread. a.
pound Of pepper, package or envelopes,
bar Of soap, paper Of pins, and some
note paper, do you think you could re-
member all Of them?'
"But mamma would not give me er.
rauds in that way said Hugh, laugh
ing.
why not?' asked Cousin Ethel,
"you know how to buy all these things"
"Yes; but she would not tell me to
60 to grocery store. and get the paper
aud--what next, Cousin Ethel ?"
"a bar Of soap"
och, yes; then 60 to a trimmingstore
for the thread aud pins, and come back
by a stationery for ,ho-lve forgot al.
ready"
Envelopes and paper" continued
Cousin Ethel, smiling. 80 it is be.
cause all these errands are arranged, or
told you in order, that you can remember
them, is it?'
"Yes, ma'am," replied Hugh, wonder
ing what this would have to do with his
lesson.
Now suppose you try to straighten
out your geography lesson in the same
way take Ohio first, study the largest
print, what is said of soil and climate
then learn about the rivers, towns, and
so on, till you get to the end Of that part
of the lesson don't you think you can
DO that much
Yes, man," replied Hugh, beginning
to get quite interested "but | have to
learn it ALL"
Suppose you stand at the bottom of
tho school. house stairs, and say, 81 cant
reach the top in one step, or two, or three
no use in trying
"That would be very foolish replied
Hugh, laughing; $50 am to take one
step ut time in my lesson, am |, and
keep it straight iu my mind, as mamma
does the errands?
"Yes, that's the way. said cousin
Ethel but one thing more,-suppose
while your mother is telling you where
to 70, and what to buy, you are trying
about half the time to count the marbles
in your bag"
II see," exclaimed Hugh, interruptiug
her; 81 must pay attention, as mamma
says"
"Yes; get it strai ght in your head
what you want to learn; take one step
at time, and give your whole attention
to it, aud see if your hard geography
will not grow easier"
"rll try this way Of remembering,
replied Hugh.
And if you keep on doing so, faith.
fully, year after year, your memory will
improve more than you now Imagine

Matters in France.

NJ. Thiers, in accordance with pre- vious intimations, sent to the Assembly his formal resignation as President of the Republic. It was accompanied with the announcement that all the Ministers had also rendered their resignations. Great excitement prevailed on the reading of the communications. A vote was adop- ted almost unanimously-only six mem- bers dissenting-appealing to the patriot ism of the President, refusing to accept his resignation, and passing to the con- sideration of the order of the day. A deputation was appointed to announce to M. Thiers the action of the Assembly.
 A deputy subsequently moved that Q Committee of the Assembly be appointed to endeavor to effect a compromise with the Executive, and in case of failure to consider and report to the Assembly forthwith what measures should be taken under the circumstances. All the parlia- mentary clubs are sending deputations to M. Thiers to dissuade him from his pur- pose. The deputies of the Right Centre held meeting this afternoon and adop- ted resolution declaring that the tariff was solely question of finance, not of politics ; and thnt in voting against the prOpOSal to tax raw materials they had no intention of expressing want of confi- dence in the government. --s,, p.
 The deputation appointed by the As sembly waited on President Thiers this evening and informed him of the vote by which the Chamber had refused to ac- cept his resignation. M. Thiers in re- sponse consented to remain in the ser vice of the Chamber and the country It is probable that the present ministry will remain in ofice.-Pari& Dispo,ch,

A School Ship.

The Massachusetts School Ship, re- formatory vessel, to which for some years juvenile culprits have been sent, has failed as an experiment, notwithstanding the most kindly nursing by the State and by private phianthl opists. Judge Thomas Russell, Collector Of the Port of Boston, who has been always warmly in- terested ill the ship, admitted ill his evl- deDce before the Legislative Committee that the plan could not be made useful and effective. He said that our Ameri- cali foreign commerce had so decreased that it no longer created any demand for boys, or only 8 limited one. 1t was hardly worth while, he thought, to be at the expense and trouble of training lads for the sea, if most of them, after all, were to go into occupations on land. AL ready there is surplus of sailors in our ports if boys are shipped on coasters, they pass out of the jurisdiction of. the State; and if they are sent out in whal- CTS, they usually desert on the first oppor- tunity. Last year, out of 200 discharged, only 29 were shipped. Then it was complained that the Judges have been ill the habit of sending the worst boys to the ship, many of whom should have been put 1n the House ot Cofrec- tion. Nor does the life on board seem to be of character favorable to reform. The boys are crowded together any thing like separate system upon gen. eral scale is impossible; and the worst soon bring down to their own level the least degraded {; so that the influences of the ship, considered merely as prison, are bad, while the management is cum brous and difficult. The main value of the vessel seems to have consisted in the fact that it furnished 8 pretty toy to ex- hibit to strangers. In the present state of our commerce it does not even answer the purpose of getting troublesome boys out of the way and even if it did; he must be an uncommon lad who could with stand the demoralizing influence of the forecastle.

Hard on the Sheep,

A singular bird is found in New Be- land. It is the sKea and belongs to the Parrot family. Up to the advent of the Europeans, it's food consisted main ly of the sweets of flowers and the ber- ries of mountain shrubs, with occasion ally such insects as are found in the crevices of rocks or beneath the bark of trees. But with the occupation of the country by the English, its habits in this regard have materially changed. Attracted by the meat -gallows of the back-country squatters, the bird soon learned, in the scarcity of other food, to tear its meal from the half-dried carcass of some slaughtered sheep, or failing to obtain this, the drying sheepskins stretched on the rails of the stock yard were laid under contribution.
 The bird now tears his food from the back of the living sheep. We are told by local paper that for the last three years the sheep belonging to a settler in the Wanaka district, (Otago), appeared afflicted with what was thought to be 9 new kind of disease neighbors and shepards were equally at a loss to account for having never seen anything of the kind before. The first appearance of this supposed disease is patch of raw flesh on the loin of the sheep, about the size of a man s hand; from this, matter continually runs down the side, taking the wool completely off the part it touches, and in many cases death is the result. At last sheperd noticed one of the mountain parrots sticking to sheep and pecking at raw place, and that the animal seemed unable to get rid of its tormentor. The run-holder gave direc- tions to keep watch on the parrots when mastering on the high ground the re- suit has been that during the present season, when mastering high upon the ranges near the snow-line, they saw sever al birds surrounding a sheep, which was freshly bleeding from small wound in the loin on other sheep were noticed places where the Kea had begun to at tack them

The Inyalid-A Pen Picture.

See her pallid countenance, but short time ago the picture of ruddy health, the envy of the school and the pride of the household. She was always well comed by her schoolmates, for her 1.-the form and pleasing disposition carried cheerfulness into their ranks. Diligent, punctual and exemplary, obedient and graceful at home, she won the hearts of all. But alas, we are sorrowed. Those rosy cheeks and ruddy lips are blanched by consumption. The voice once so en- chanting in laugh and song is feeble. husky and supplanted by hollowcough. Let us approach her couch gently and take her hand. Do not shudder because of the feeble and passionless grasp. The emaciated and shows bony outlines, while the cords and tortuous veins are plainly mapped upon the surface. The pulse that bounded with repletion, car rying vigor to the whole system and imparting life, beauty, vivacity, health and strength, is delicate to the touch. The feeble heart can not propel the thin, scanty blood with force. Must we lose her while yet in her teens Compan- ions and friends gather around with words of cheer and consolation and de
 part with moistened eyes and silent Steps. Must we lose her? No! there is releaf! We can stay this destroyer of our happiness and not suffer the loss of so bright gem. Something more is required now than dietary and hygienic observance, for nature calls for aid and she shall have 1t. Take this pleasant medicine. It is invigol ating. How it allays the irritable cough, improves the appetite and digestion and sends a healthy jingle through the frame. The blood is enriched. nervous force increas- ed, and the heart bounds with 0 new impulse. See her face brighten by de- grees the color is returning, her voice is getting clearer, and pleasant words are spoken. The strength falters yet but is gaining. Let us take her out in Q warm sunshine. In a short time she will be able to go without our aid, cheerful girl. This delightful medicine must be God-blessed. It is restoring health to our loved one. She is emerging from her sickness sweeter and nobler than be- fore, and Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery must have the credit. It has raised her.
