were invited to dine With the governor
Of the settlement, and in the course Of
the banquet the commander of the
French squadron causually informed
lis host that 1T day-break he was to sail
for Perrin, under secret orders, to occupy
in the name Of France the island rock
which commands the entrance to the
Red sea. Those were the days when
telegraph wires had otyet spanned the
world, and when British officials were
not afraid to act oil their own RESPONSE
bility. The governor Of Alden drank
success to the French expedition, but
before his guests had quilted the table
q dispatch boat had stolen out Of the
harbor, and when the French squadron
rcrchcd Perrin a few hours later they
found the union jack flying over the
rock and guarded by an English sentinel.
They had come too late; and the com
mand Of the Red sea, alone and undis
putcd was secure to EndgIand

fowl is composed of GOO ovules or
eggs; therefore il hen, during the whole
Of her life, cannot possibly lay more
than 600 eggs, which, in the natural
course, are distributed over nine years,
in the following proportion: First year
after birth, 1G to 20; second year, 100
to 100; third year, 120 TO l35; fourth
year, 100 to 10; fifth year, 60 to So;
sixth year, 80 to GO; seventh year, 5j
to 40; eighth year, 10 to 20; ninth year
to 10. 1t follows that it would not he
profitable TO keep hens after their
fourth year, as their produce will not
pay for their keeping, except when they
are Of valuable and scarce breed.
To begin with, we may doubt the posi-
bility Of making any accurate count of
the ovisacs IN the ovarics or Of affirm
ing that no new ones make their an
pearance out of minute germs or cells
in the course Of the life Of the hen. In
the next place, such a limitation must
have reference to the actual constitu-
ton Of the fowl, and this either in its
wild or tame condition. If to the
former, the number of ovisacs, even if
definitely ascertained. can lave no con-
nection whatever Of the real habit of
tho hen, since she lays in wild state
only as many eggs as she can cover; if
to the tame fowl, 1t is strange to find so
definite rule laid down for an animal
that is, in the highest degree, of an arti-
fetal character, and whose nature is, in
50 many points, constantly being re-
made. - The POuHyU JPOrM

Another Heir to the "Sick Man. =
London Globe.

Italy, it seems, claims place among
the heirs Of T. Ottoman Empire. She
does not want, it is true, any portion of
European Turkey, which She is rather
inclined to think ought to fall to the
share Of Greece But there is Tunis
lying close to her shores, and, Us the
Bey owes allegiance to the Porte, the
Italians think that he must now be
looking about for u stronger protector.
The funniest part of the matter is the
reason assigned hy the Giornale deLe
Colo1.ic, Roman print, for advancing
this claim. In ancient times the king
dom of Carthage included the present
Province Of Tunis But Carthage even
tually passed under the yoke of Rome,
and it is therefore incontestible that
modern Italy ought now to become
possessor of 1.-THE ancient Kingdom Of
Jugurtha." There is something truly
amusing III this oll-hand way Of dispos-
ING Of country without even going
through the formality of asking the
consent Of its ruler and inhabitants.
But if Europe once admits claims
founded on such very remote rights of
possession, where are we to stop? If
runs belongs to Italy, why not England
and France, and indeed, the greater
part of Europe and considerable slice
Of Asia and Africa? At one time or
ANOTHER the Roman Empire included
the vast majority of modern States, and
if the Italians claim to be the lawful
heirs Of that wonderful Power, it is high
time for the world TO begin to adopt pro
cautionary measures. Perhaps the Du-
lilo and the Dandolo, with their arma-
mcnt Of 100-ton guns, were designed Tor
the purpose of enforcing these long dor
mant rights. We scarcely expect, how
ever. to see the claim brought before,
the Congress, although we are info med
that Italy possesses " importa1et com
mercial interests in the hea'1 q AFRICA
which would be greatly sdyahced ny
the possession of Tup"' up TO the
present moment we IRE quite unaware
that the possibility Of y thriving trade
across the Sahara had ever received Sc
rious recognition i'll Italy. Such, how
ever, i the case, it appears, although y
was not made public until there seemed
some remote chance of Tunls wanting
4 new protector.

EKo (Nev.) Post: On the 1st inst. I
Fifth street man observed we!l-tilled
purse lying on the sidewalk, but, with
u knowing wink at the hystanders, and
the remark, Cant April fool me, he
walked by it. An hour later, when he
saw posted notice offering Il reward of
$50 for the recovery ola purse contain
ing $500 in gold coin, and learned that
mine owner had really dropped it, he
went away into the hills back of town,
kicked himself half to DEATH reared ont
seven tons Of ponderous words that
would make dictionary blush, and
said he could lick the man who invent
ed the first Of April if lie was as big as
a buck elephant. When he cooled off
he returned to town, and in passing
down the street, stopped and picked up
a four-bit piece. He laid it down again,
looked wildly at his burned and blister
cd fingers, and then struck out for the
hills again with IL lope like a string-halt
dromedary.

The Prince of SwindlcrS.

Plymouth White, who Is now under
arrest ut Boston for recent swindling
operations, is evidently the prince Of
his craft, his operations 1T different
times and places aggregating about ST.
100000 He was born 1T Wcathcrsfield,
VT, learnd the printers trade ut Mont
pclicr, and figured later as a newspaper
reporter i'll Boston, New York, Bangor,
Me-, and other places lie was on the
New York H1aM for while, and was u
favorite Of the elder Bennett till the lat
ter began to suspect him Of question
able money transactions. Then he
went to manufacturing window-shades
in New York, made money rapidly,
turned broker, bought gold-dust from
California miners, swindling them by
false weights, gained an immense credit
and then ran of to Europe with $175,-
600 Of borrowed funds. When lie re-
turned after n tour Of the old world, he
managed to dodge all snits against him,
