A Prencaa Fighting Editor.
ICOrnhiIl Mapazine.I

Barbelard, sub editor, was q literary Curl
osity, for he could only read with difficulty,
and spelled no word Of our language correctly
save his own name He had been appointed
sub-editor by reason Of his gigantic stature
and his power with oil duelling weapons. An
old sergeant Of the Cent Gardes, who had
been decorated for carrying off two Austrian
colonelS prisoners-one under each arm1 20,
his socks, and had pair Of bristling red
moustaches, which, when he was angry,
looked as If they were aiiame. It was Barbe-
lard who assumed all the responsibility of all
nal which employed him; and Ii any stranger
came to ask for explanations about PERSONAL
ties, this imposing sub-editor was there to
answer him in the correctest language Of
chivalry. He rendered no apologies or ex-
plantations, but would forthwith be ready to
accept @ challenge to tightnezt morning early
with swords or pistols, according as might be
most convenient. This often led to little
dialogues, somewhat in the following fashion:
Stranger !bou1clng il, in furiouss,Iy Tith TIE
SEQ the man who wrote this article.
Barbelard (rising with dignity from the
snb-editorial seat with pipe IN his MOUTH
Young man, it's me as wrote that article II

and we'll have it otaaant daybreak.
Stranger growing civil)-~Ah, mol have
merely come to renew my subscription to the
paper. What @ warm day 1t is-Goo-o-d
morning-(and exit.
Sometimes, however, duel would arise
and then Barbelard always showed himself
magnanimous inintlrcting only flesh wounds
just mere flea bites, as he called them, rip
ping up the arm for twelve inches or so, or
carving off an insignificant little piece from
the aggressors calf BarbeIard had fought
round dozen duels; but he owed another duty
to his newspaper besides fighting, for he ap-
peared In the correctional courts to answer all
charges Of attacking the government, and un-
derwent the sentences of Imprisonment to
which members Of the staff were condemned
He had come to look upon the jail Of st. Pela-
gle much as second home, and was not sorry
to go there for o few MONTHS for he got double
pay, unlimited allowance Of tobacco and ex-
cellent meals sent in daily from the restaur-
ant at the expense Of his employers as long as
his incarceration listed.

A New Uae for seals.
IChambers' Journal

There exists an animal which might be
trained to render us great service, that is the
seal, which Is slaughtered 30 merciIessly for
the sake of its oil and skin. Intelligent and
affectionate it possesses all the qualities suit
able for a domestic state. The director of the
museum at DIXON had SO skillfully tanned one
some years ago that though by nature am
phibious, its primitive habits were changed,
and 1t rarely went into the water, placing it.
self during the winter close to its master in
the warm corner Of the freside, stretched on
the wood-ashes. II pains were taken to teach
the seal, 1t might become to the fisherman
what the dog is to the hunter Nor need we
despair of such result, for the Chinese train
the remora or suckng-flsh to catch turtles,
and the heron and cOrmorant to capture fishes.
The coasts of England would be fit places for
the education OF the seal. The value of such
help may be imagined when we think Of the
great solitude of the sea~-so many times
larger than the space covered by land-where
a man has no ally, and can only count upon
those who dread him. What an interest for
him in the very clements itself to have q
friend and companion who would follow him
in his fishing expeditions? There are not
wanting conclusive results which have been
obtained In Individual cases and il the same
care were extended to the race, we may say
that the seal Is an ally ready prepared by ma
ture.

it is that at present there Is no such "ism" ns

he comes here on his own responsibility and

BEJe1 EN "
THE Later Years Of the Ex.Emprcss of
France.

Once upon time the Empress Eugenie was
deemed the most tasteful dresser III Europe,
and one OF the most elegant women. She
used to invent new and recherche toilettes, and
the cost Of her wardrobe was enormous. But
at last she began to study economy. She
concluded to have her dresses made at home,
and caused dressmakers establishment to
be fixed UP In the Tulleres, anent which Miss
Lucy FL. Hooper tells us something In tho Au-
gust number of Ltppincotts Nagdsfse:
The workroom was directly over her, pri-
vate apartments. BY means Of trap-door,
whose mechanism was sklIlfully dissl1nulated
among tho ornaments Of the cornice and
ceiling, a manikin arrayed In the garb that
was Ia progress, could be lowered for the EN-
press inspection. This singular branch OF
the royal household was under the charge Of
o functiOnary whose business it was to pur-
chase silks, velvets, and laces at wholesale
The knowledge Of its existence was soon
spread abroad, and did the Empress Infinite
harm. The petty economy Of the proceeding
Mortified and Disguised the Parisians, who,
economical themselves, have eyer scorned
that virtue in their soveregns. Many of the
partisans Of the court denied the existence Of
such an establishment, but during the period
that elapsed between the downfall Of the EN-
pire and the outbreak of the Commune, the
curious throngs that visited the Tuileries
might trace amid the moldings OF the ceiling
In the Empress boudoir the outline of the
famous trap-door
"And now her ex-Imperial Majesty has
lost her grip, SO to speak. She Is no longer
the arbitress Of fashion, but has become Il
played out, dowdy old woman.
"TO-day In her abode at Chiselhurst, the
widow OF Napoleon III attracts scarcely less
of the worlds interest and attention than she
did as throned Empress md Queen Of Fashion.
Unfortunately, the supreme tact that once
was her distinguishing quality seems to have
deserted her In the days of her decadence.
She, the most graceful of women has not
learned the art OF growing old gracefully.
She had played tho part Of d beauty, and the
leader of fashion for years. Now that she ispast
fifty, TINT character Is no longer possible to
her. But she might have assumed another
less snowy, perhaps, but surely far more touch

well have worn the triple dignity Of her
widowhood, her maternity and her misfor-
tune She has chosen instead with q weak
ness unworthy Of the part she has played on
the wide stage of contemporary history, to
clutch vainly after the fleeing shadow OF her
vanished charms. A head loaded with false

Conscience saulckenea Mt Last.

The Duke Of St. Adams, whose ancestors
are famous for having come over with Will
liam the Conqueror, and, as John Bright
once said of another noble family, "for moth
ing else," Is hereditary Grand Falconer Of
England" Now, the sport Of faIconry has
not been practiced in that country since the
time of the Stuarts, and there are but few
Englishmen who know anything as to Its vo-
cabulary. The old terms have become obso-
lete, and 1t is questionable If the Duke to-day
knows the difference between a "Bawtere," O.
"Melonne,' "GerfawkOn," or "Fawkon-
gentyu." Still, he drew his salary with un-
falling regularity, much after the fashion Of
some Of our own politicians, until recently,
when he suffered an awakening Of conscience,
and declined longer to accept pay for services
which he did not perform.
The occasion was IN this wise: A boy was
employed to watch the geese on the Dukes
estate, receiving as wages eighteen pence per
week. Recently he refused to take this sum,
and on being asked the reason, replied, "Why,
cause all the geese flied away, and how could
take money for looking arter birds when
there was no birds to look arter?" This an
swer was repeated to the Duke, and it set
him thinking. Here was @ poor boy COLI
scientious enough to7refuse to take money
because there were no birds to look after, and
yet he and his ancestors had been accepting
salaries as Grand Falconers for two centuries
without doing the slightest service in return.
It was q case OF babes and sucklings teaching
wisdom to old age, and the Duke at once sat
down and wrote his resignation.
