cided taste for the beautiful Well /
may Mr.. Gould say, These highly-de- |
corated halls of assembly must be re-
garded as the most wonderful instances |
of birds architecture yet discovered ;
and the taste, we see, of the several
species certainly differs" You could |
not have distincter evidence in lady's |
salon carefully decorated with flowers,
either of her taste for the beautiful, or
of the deliberate subordinatiOn of that
taste to social purposes, than we have
here of the same qualities in birds. Mr..
Leith Adams in his paper hardly re-
fers, as we have already observed, to
this remarkable class of facts at all,
only pointing out that the obvious pre-
ference for gayly-colored plumage on
the part of the females clearly implies
a genuine taste for the beautiful in
birds, which is, of course, true, but is
not nearly as good evidence of a dis
/ tinct intellectual development of this
| point, as the elaborate decoration of
their bowers by birds for festive pur-
| poses. The mere preference of gay
/
colors may be unconscious and purely
instructive, but when bird looks out
/ for bleached land shells and tall grasses
/ to ornament its reception-room, and
fetches round stones to &C fix the grasses
in their proper place, and then uses the
hall thus provided only for festive So
cial purposes, you can hardly deny such
birds either the powers or the tastes of
landscape gardeners and ball givers.
And we fancy this kind of deliberate
taste for the beautiful, and the beauti-
full in subordination to social purposes,
is confined among the lower animals to
birds and, as regards the social pur-
pose, to a very few order of birds. A
great many birds seem to have more APP
probation of beauty of color than
almost any other class of animals, but
only in a few species has it risen to the
point of really decorative social art.
We may gather from this that in the
bird the perception of harmony is of q
very high kind, and this evidently APP
plies to sound as well as color. Nc

or display such wonderful qualifications
for initiating the beautiful sounds they
hear. Must we not say, then, that the
bird has, in more force than any other
species of the lower animals, the per.
eeption of harmony in forms, colors.
and sounds, and the further conscious.
ness of the fascination such harmony
has for its own species, and the en-,
hancement it lends to social enjoyment

DoN'r fail to keep your life insured
for liberal amount. You will not re-
gret the investment if you insure IN
such company as the old New York
life. If you make up your mind to in
sure then insure in the best company.
You need not guess at the financial
standing of any company, because you
can have mailed to you free of expense
the sworn statements made before the
insurance commissioners of the differ
ent states. These documents are not
without interest. A letter addressed to
the New York life insurance company,
$40 and 348 Broadway, New York, will
meet with a ready response.

You say you love me, and you fiirt

When am touched and own the hurt.
You say am too jealous.

But when reach to take kiss,
You pout, and say can't, yet.
your Rlances rob my days of peace;
You know that adore YOU;
But when I plead upon my knees,
You frown, and say bore you.

The Mammoth Religion of the world.

The tourist, roaming over the sunny
lands of the east, cannot but gaze with
admiring wonder on the gorgeous tenn
pie editices that everywhere meet the
eye. Even amid the superIative rich
ness of tropical scenery they stand con-
spicuOus, their slender, gilded spires
towering upward, often hundreds of
feet, till they seem lost in the blue
ether their tinted tiles of green and
gold, rejecting as by a prism all the
coIors of the rainbow; and their
myriads of tiny, tinkling bells, pendant
from every turret and gable of the
vaulted roof, breathing out sweet music
at each touch of the passing breeze.
Nowhere else, not even on their own
magnificent palaces, or the gorgeous
abodes of their kings, do Orientals so
lavish time and money. taste and skill,
as on the temples of their gods Amid
the wealth of luxuriance the Divine
Creator has scattered so plenteOusIy
around, these seem in perfect accord,
monuments of a devotion and self
sacrifice that challenge our admiration,
even while awakening pity for zeal so
sadly misplaced. Never were devOtees
of any creed or faith so fast bound in
| it's thraldom as are these diciples of
! Buddh or Gaudama while this NAM
moth religion numbers as its votaries
more than $50, 900, 900 of human be-
ings, or nearly half the population of
our globe For $500 years it has been
the established religion of Burmab,
Siam, Laos, Pegu, Cambodia, Thibet,
Japan, Tartary, Ceylon, the Loo-Choo
and many neighbOring islands, besides
about two-thirds of China and large
portion of Siberia and, at the present
day, no inconsiderable number of the
simple peasantry of Swedish LapIand
are found among its firm adherents.
Buddhism, in its pure form, undoubted-
~ had its origin in Hindostan, where
its founder was born and thence, by
the almost superhuman efforts of its
priests and devotees, it was scattered
far and wide all through eastern, mid
die and southern Asia. When Moham-
mechanism was first. introduced into
Java, the people were all Buddhists,
and they chung to their established reli-
gion with a tenacity that even the fire
and sword of the false prophet were in
many cases incapable of subduing. In
Hindostan, within few centuries after
the death of Gaudama, we find the
Brahmins iercely prosecuting the
Buddists, and, ultimately, expelling
them from the country; yet to this
day, despite the deadly malignity OF
Brahmins, the persistent warfare wage6
against Buddhism by Mohammedans
and the combined prayers and efforts Of
all Christendom, no decisive victory has
been achieved over this mighty host
Some thousands have been converted tC
Christianity, but the loss is made good
by births from year to year; though il
is true that, as western civilization pro
crosses, the highest class, and in many
cases even the priests themselves, are
losing their hold on the doctrines OIL
Buddhism, and modifying their temple
worship by some admixture of Occiden
dental if not Christian observances

wa1lG of Vitality.

If a deficiency of vital energy is not disease in
itself it is a condition which lays the system open
to the attacks of all conceivable maIadies. Night

rious influences. No atmosphere is entirely pure,
no water utterly free from injurious particles;
while in many localities both are positively IN
wholesome. What defence has the weak. languid
system in which the vital principle is deficient or
dormant, against any of the morbid influences
which produce epidemic and other diseases? None

one hundred and nineteen are already
