f,ooD BREEDISG.-The same oDserVa-
t;ons which were made on the art ap-
plicable to a certain refinement oman
ners. which is common to all nlgniy
civilized states, but which, perhaps
arises in despotic countries at an ear
Iier stage Of society. This refinement
il ii itself Of little merit or value, IL
indeed. it is not rather to be accounted
a defect. It's chief characteristic is
Injurious indulgence Of various kinds
and politeness which consists SO ,
much in suppression of the natural
feelings that it is nearly akin to false
hood Never to say anything that
NAV give pain, unless where duty re-
ouires it. is a rule of sound morals as
we'll as good manners. But never 70
say anything which those present may
dislike, nay, from which they may ais
sent is the rule of refined and county
breeding. Absolute command OF coun'
tenance and figure, calm, placid de-
pertinent, unbroken ease, sustained
dignity, habitual smiles, indiscrimlnate
respect, nay, the semblance OF esteem
or even love for everything that ap'
nroaches and the taking of ready
interest in whatever concerns every
one, but showing none at all IN what
regards ourselves merely-there are
the constituents of highly.refned and
courtly manners; and these imply
such an unnatural suppression of feel
ings, such an habitual restraint upon
the emotions of every kind, such a
false position of the mind at all times.
as is most easily learnt under the sway
and the dread of a despotic prince or
his provincial representative. Accord
ingly the manners of orientals are
known to the polite in an extravagant
degree; while there is want of polish
in the subjects of free states which
have made the roughness of a republi'
can almost proVerbiaI.

SHoRT SENTENCEs.-Short phrases
have ever been the most powerful and
hpautituI mediums Of. conveying
thought. They are simplicity itself
and simplicity is beauty. Easily IN
derstood, no study is required to grasp
tkeir meaning. A prophetic politician
makes a. declaration respecting gov
eminent, and the people soon catch
the spirit and confirm the declaration.
Results from such phrases may not be
immediate; but the words go sound
i,;g.ep until their work is accomplished.
Short phrases are comprehensive, and
sometimes contains whole volumes.

the remains of Napoleon Bonaparte
were brought to Paris by Prince de
Joil,vilIe the entire speech making
was this: "Sir! l present you the
ashes of Napoleon" And Louis
Philippe answered, II receive them in
the name of France" Such was the
brief response of people to the pres
ence of dead emperor. Sometimes
in single sentence the life and char
acter of some great man stands out
strangely revealed and individualized.
No biography could depict the charac-

The scientific gardens of Paris are
becoming quite a theatre for field
sports of a select order. Not long
ago an English falconer was invited to
establish himself and his trained birds
in one of them, and the Parisians were
INDUCED with the sight of falcons
worthy the age of chivalry. While
the birds were allowed to perform in
the air, group of cormorants attract
ed quite as much attention by their
exploits in the water. The Jardin
|d'Acclimatation has been enriched by
the addition of some fine secretary
birds, and few days ago occasion
was taken, with their help, to offer to
the public what French paper calls
most attractive spectacle" Some
vEpers had been obtained and vert
thrown down before the birds, who, to
the intense delight of the spectators,
lost no time in engaging in strug-
gle" with them. The combat must
have been rather considered if the
birds were anything like full grown,
for secretary has been known not
only to vanquish but to devour bodily
snakes as large as mans arm. But
the gestures and tactics of the birds
while engaged in the fight were high
ly amusing to the visitors.
