A Parental Veto.

Yesterday noon bold, bad boy who
lives on Columbia street, went home
from school and said: "Dear mother,
mayn't 90 in my bare feet this after
noon? None of the boys wear shoes in
the spring." But his mother said, "NO,
my darling boy, / cannot let you 60
bare-footed, and if you tease me about it
l will rattle your tender cuticle with the
unkind end of cheerful skate.strap."
So the bold, bad boy closed the debate
with a sigh, and when the yeas and nays
were called his motion did not prevail,
and the house soon after adjourned.
But the boy went out of the yard by the
aleyway, and took off his shoes and
stockings and hid them behind the
wood-pile, and scudded merrily of to
school, and everybody admired his fiat,
muddy bare feet. But when he got out
of school the ground was covered with
snow, and he had a very solemn time
hippity-hopping back home, and when he
got there he couldn't tell the wood-pile
from haystack, and his shoes and stock
ings might as we'll have been in the
middle of the ocean for all the good they
did him. So he went into the house,
and, after a great deal of filibustering, he
made bis report, which was tabled, and
the house went into committee of the
whole on the state of the boy. His
mother took the floor, and after an ex-
citing and highly interesting session the
committee rose and the house adjourned,
while the boy rubbed such portions of
his anatomy as he could reach, and
framed bill for the more perfect pre-
vention of chilblains.-BurIington Hawk-

An Insect Highwayman.

Bees are pugnacious little creatures, if
reused by any fancied wrong or by the
very human vice of cupidity. They are
not disposed to sting if left alone, but
are sure to revenge any hurt or indig-
nifty. Whole swarms often engage in
pitched battles; this is most always for
the possession of territory. One piece of
carelessness on the part of a bee-kee per,
and whole swarm is sometimes demor-
allied if they once gain access to honey,
and can steal it, they are apt to abandon
all pretense of honesty, and give them
selves up to predatory life. Some of
them, as has been before said, are profess
sional sneak thieves; others are high
waymen. Haber and other apiarians
mention the shameless behavior of some
of these highway robbers. One of them
will select a luckless humble-bee on its
way home laden with honey, and force it
to disgorge its treasure. Violence will
not do here, for the humble-bee's honey
pocket is far beyond the reach Of our
little thief. He dee not kill his victim,
but only calls "stand and deliver ~ the
peril of your life" and generally
succeeds in exacting that for which he
asks. When the humble-bee yields and
gives up its honey, the bee allows it 10
depart in peace, and licks UP the sweets
with great gusto.-LouisviAe Home and

Cooking Meat by Cold.

Those who have handled a piece of
CONCEALED mercury, which freezes at
temperature of thirty-nine degrees below
zero, will know that the sensation is
similar to that produced by holding
coal of fire in the hand. In other words,
intense heat and intense cold bear a
striking resemblance to each other in
their effects. A Hungarian chemist, whose
speciality consists of finding out the best
methods for preserving meats, has made
practical use of this analogy in the action
of heat and cold and partially cooks his
meats by subjecting them to the action
of intense cold. Strange to say, the
meat subjected to this low temperature
is reduced to condition similar to that
induced by heat. The material must be
perfectly fresh, and after being exposed
to temperature of thirty-thrce degrees
below zero, must be carefully sealed in
tins. 1t is found, when opened, to
preserve a remarkable freshness, and to
be in more satisfactory condition for
use than has hitherto been attained by
any other method ior the same purpose.
A large mandatory is being built in
Hungary for preparing meat on this
novel principle.

Arrival OF Dom Pedro ii, Emperor Of
Brazil.

The steamer Helvetius, bearing the
Emperor and Empress of Brazil, entered
the Lower Bay at New York about noon,
April Is. The Batteries fired salute of
a hundred guns in honor of the royal
party, and the Brazilian corvette honored
the Emperor by a royal salute, as did the
United States frigate Minnesota.
Secretaries Fish, Robson and Taft,
Vice.Admiyal Rowan, General Sherman,
the Brazilian Minister, with the Brazilian
Centennial Commissioners, and large
party met the Emperor's steamer on the
steamer Alert. The Custom House and
city officials went down the Bay in a
Government cutter, and delivered the
tender of the hOspitalities of the city,
made through Mayor Wickham. The
Marine band on the Alert greeted the
Emperor with the Brazilian national
hymn. Secretary Fish made brief adj
dress of welcome. The Alert was gayly
decked with flags, and the Brazilian I'M
perial Ensign was run to the maintop.
Flags on all the public buildings and
hotels were flying In honor OF the EN-
peror's arrival.
The Emperor and Empress landed at
Pier No. 2 Fast River, and were driven
to the hotel, thus avoiding the crowd
awaiting their arrival at the Twenty
fourth street landing. North River,
where members of the Cabinet and other
officials left the steamer.

The French Assembly-An Exciting De-
bate Oh the Amnesty Question.

There was an important debate i'm the
Chamber of Deputies on April 1lth.
NJ. Leblond, Reporter of the Committee
on the various amnesty motions, read
the report, which declines to advise the
passage of the amnesty measure what
ever, but recommends that the govern
ment display clemency in individual
cases. The Bonapartists, in order to
cause division among the Republicans,
moved that the question of amnesty be
discussed Immediately. M. Ricard,
Minister of the Interior, stated that The
government considered it useless for the
deputies to Immediately vote a law
which the Senate would be unable to
discuss until after recess. M. Duval,
Bonapartist, stated that his friends in
troduced the motion because they wished
to, test the value of the Republicans as
government party, while they thought
the amnesty question ought not to be de,
layed. The Bonapartists, he said, would
not offer systematic opposition to the
Constitution. There was a violent alter
cation between M. Duval and Minister
Ricard, because of the remark made by
the latter, that fallen party like the
Bonapartists had no abdication to offer.
The Minister reminded M. Duval that
the deposition of the Empire had been
confirmed by the recent elections. Nj.
Duval again declared that the Bonapart-
lists were not the irreconcilable enemies
OF the Constitution. They desired above
all things to see the advanced Republi-
cans, who triumphed at the elections,
seated on the Ministerial benches. A
postponement of further debate on the
amnesty question until after recess was
ultimately voted by the Chamber by a
large majority, all groups of the Left,
without exception, supporting the gov
ernment. The Republicans regard this
result as confirmation of the vote of a
Bordeaux Assembly, by which the En-.
pire was formally deposed. The Cham
ber also deferred the consideration oi
the three disputed election cases until
after the recess, and adjourned to the
10th of May.

April Folly In BROOKLYN.

The graceless scamps in Brooklyn sent
to forty of the clergymen of that city on
April FOOLS day notes demanding that
Louisa B. Campbell and Ferdinand M.
Bristow desired to be married at the
Pierrepont House at 3 o'clock on the
afternoon of that day by each of those
clergymen. The consequences were
alarming. Clergyman by clergyman be-
set the clerk of that hotel during the
fifteen minutes Immediately following 3
o'clock. Each showed his note and
asked for his bridegroom was told that
there was no such thing in the house, and
went away suddenly and appreciatingly.
Fulton was among them. Talmage and
Rev. DIR. Storrs sent word that they were
engaged. Mr.. Beecher had been invited,
but was wise and made no sign. The
perpetrators of the "sell stayed in the
waiting. room till they had counted
thirty clergymen, and then went away
and thought it was funny.

Won BulOW.

DR.. Won Bulow, the pianist, is so ex-
ceediDgly nervous that any physician
would look upon him as the victim of
neurosis, and indeed he acts so exceed
ingly unlike other people that he might
fairly be set down as unbalanced in in
tellect. His former wife is now the wife
of Wagner and must be singularly
constructed woman to go from one wild
musician to another. DIR. Won Bulow
can not bear the voices and noises of
children, and finds nothing more inn
portant to do in the privacy of his room
than playing persistently upon the
piano with hardly an instant of rest
This pertinacity, carried so far, seems the
out-crop of disordercd mind, the world
would better study it than animadvert
uponit. The Doctor is, however, clearly
wrong in saying that lager beer is not in
consonance with music. The great
Schumann composed much in lager beer
saloon and drank titanic draughts of the
liquor, and there Is no composer greater
than the author Of the Warum. ."-Ntp

Illness of the Gar.

An afternoon cable dispatch confirms
the rumors relative to the illness of Gar
Alexander II, and reports what is
thought at Berlin of its probable conse-
quences. The German diplomatic circles
view that event exactly as we said they
would, when we wrote in our commments
on the first rumors of the Ozarewitch's Is
Regency, that "he is the mortal enemy
of Germany and of the German influence
now so powerful in Russia" The illness
of Alexander ii, just at this moment,
when European affairs are in such a
troubled condition, and the absence of
his moderate and peaceful advice may
precipitate the crisis which everybody
has expected to break out over the Old
Continent during the spring season.
The Car will sojourn for some time at
Ems, and afterwards in Switzerland. II
is singular, though not quite unexpected
that the most warlike reports are received
from Herzegovina just on the same day
when the illness of Alexander III is con-
firmed.-N. Y Journal Commerce.
