Louis Napoleon is said to have been the first
ruler Of France who has the sagactv to dis

try. The French peasant had no confidence
in banks or IN any individual security Igno-
rant and suspicious by nature, prone to hoard
ing in tea-caddies and old stockings it need
cd a tempting bait to draw forth his little
store. In this respect, Government loans,
subdivided into such small divisions As allow
ed the poorest man to invest his ten or twenty
francs in them, proved an unexpected success
The popularity of these loans among the
masses, as an investment for their savings,
has not diminished. In the bidding for the
recent loan to pry off the i'rus>ian indemnity
the crowd began to assemble before dark on
the preceding evening, and a regular queue
was formed after the French fashion All
through the long hours of stormy night the
queue remained, gradually lengthening until
20 many persons were in line that at the close
Of the day four hundred were still outside
when the doors were shut.

SPARRows.-The New York Times complains
that the butcher birds have been attracted to
that city in order to pray upon the English
sparrows imported few years ago, to drstroy
the c,terpillars which consumed the faliage of
the ,rae-. The next question that arises, says
the Times, is what animal can he imported 10
destroy the butcher birds? This little incident
is a striking illustration Of the theory that life
is constant struggle against death-ether ex-
ternal or internal forces continually striving to
destroy the living organism. If animals, birds,
and insects prey upon each other in a continu-
Gus series. the stronger destroying the weaker,
does the same rule aprly to MANI Perhaps
not, In q physical sense; but in society, the
wealth of one millionaire has frequently been
gained through the failures Of many obscHre in.
