Prussian Government, published an article ap-
parently intended to excite apprehensions in
regard to the peace of Europe. Now we have
q statement, by way of antidote, from an
equally well inspired journal, that affairs are
not so alarming after all. The first article
seemed to US at the time to be pitched in a
much higher key than circumstances required.

We give on our third page this morning
some information in regard to the religious
enthusiasm which Messrs. Moody and Sankey
have been instrumental in exciting in England.
The work of these clergymen has met with
much adverse criticism among members of
other denominations. But if these revivals are
the means of retaining men who would
otherwise lead immoral lives, the work Is GER
tainly good one; and there should be no
objection to Mr. Moody's applying his spiritual
stiInuiants.

Anecdotes OF Dogs.

The following anecdotes have been
sent to me by London physician, and
forcibly illustrate the faculty possessed
by animals of communicating ideas to
each other. The first is an example Of
dog language;
while ] was living in the country
with friend, NEST interesting Incl
dent was observed in the history of the
dog.
MY friend had several dogs, two of
which had special attachment to and
an understanding with each other. The
one was Scotch terrier, gentle and
ready to fratcrnize with all honest
corners The other was as large as Il
mastiif and looked like compound be-
tween the mastiff and the large, rough
stag-hound He was fierce, and required
some acquaintance before you knew what
faithfuness and kindness lay beneath his
rough and sayage-looking exterior. The
one was gay and lively, the other stern
and thoughtful.
These two dogs were often observed
to go TO certain point together, when
the small one remained behind Mt cor
ner Of large field, while the mastitf
took a round by the side III the field,
which ran up hill for nearly a mile, and
led TO a wood on the left Game abound
ed in those districts, and the object OF
the dogs arrangement was soon seen.
The terrier would start hare, and chase
it up the hill toward the large wood at
the summit, when they arrived some
what tired. AT this point the large dog,
which was fresh and had rested after his
walk, darted after the animal, which he
usually captured They then ate the
hare between them, and returned home.
This course had been systematically car
ried on for some time before IL was fully
understood"
The next anecdote shows that ami
mails belonging to different species, such
as the dog and cat, can communicate
ideas to each other, and act in concert:
" A relation of mine In Dnmfriesshire
had dog and cat which were attached
to each other In an extraordinary man
ner, and both were great fayorites in the
household. The dog, however, was not
intended to sleep in the house, and was
carefully put out every night but, strange
To say. he was always found in the morn
ing lying before the fire, with the cat by
his side.
"One evening the master Of the dog
heard sort Of rap at a back-door lead
ing TO the kitchen, and saw the sagacious
cat spring up and strike the latch, while
the dog pushed open the door, and en-
tered in triumph. This system must
have long been carried on, and when 1t
was discovered ] need not say how in
terested were the members OF the house
hold in these intelligent and really won
derful creatures. "--Harper's Weekly.

THE LOST BABY.

she wandered of one dismal day;
10 one by 10 bid her stay;
The earth was white, the sky was gray,
when the poor little baby wandered away.
rne s,,n went down with crimson crown
pabind the clouds and the tops brown:
The cold road stared with colder frown
when the poor little feet went wandering
down.
rIar mother lived up in the shining sky,
Thonght poor little baby, wondering why,
4 hours and DAYS and weeks went by,
Sha never came down at her baby's cry.
70 .be crimson wave in the west led true,
The slSyward road she surely knew;
She needed not that the sharp winds blew,
Or her cold little feet sore tired grew.
She hummed some broken baby song.
And talked TO herself as she trudged along;
She feared nofailure, rocked no wrong,
Rut She thought that the way was lone and
long.
Tired and cold, she fingered to rest
iTnder a snow drifts treaeherous crest;
Sbe cuddled herself in tiny nest,
White and cold as her mothers breast
They found her there on the snowy ground,
Her silky hair with snowtiakes crowned.
Abe made no sign, she breathed no sound,
Rnt the skyward road she had surely found

A successful case of TRANSMISSION of
blood" which occurred at the Hotel
Dieu Hospital in Paris, has recently
been reported to the Academy of Medi-

on the point of succumbing to a hemor-
rhage. The attending physician in the
hospital ward offered to bleed himself, or
rather volunteered to shed his blood in
her behalf. A pump heated to about
thirty-five or forty degrees was prepared
and applied; the vein of the young
doctor was opened and 4 jet of repairing
blood penetrated into the veins of the
| dying woman. In few minutes the
operation was executed. The next day
the patient ate, and few days after she
returned to her family.
