Canaries rs Concert-Singers.
London Telegraph 1


An entire novelty in the concert-sing-
ing department of musical art is prom
ised to the lovers Of sweet sounds by an
ingenious citizen of Phosnixville, South
Australia. This gentleman has for some
years past devoted himself exclusively to
the training of canary birds in every
known method of vocalization, and, as
we gather from antipodeon journals, with
extraordinary success. But he has re-
Gently crowned his triumphs as a very
Lamperti of feathered songsters by in
venting a mechanical apparatus by which
his yellow pupils will be taught to per-
form music of more rccondite and COM
plicated character than mere ballads and
opera airs
He proposes, with the aid of this con-
trivanee, not only to produce canary solo
lists, capable of executing airs like "Dip
Your Chair" or "Dce Tanty." as the inn
mortal Jeames de la pluche designated
the Aorid displays fashionable in his day,
but to teach his pupils part-singing and
the rendering of the most difficult mod
ern operate choruses. These astonishing
results are to be attained by the following
process: The cages in which the Profess
or's pupils reside are hung up in front Of
mirror, behind which is fixed a music
box which plays the solo, part-song, or
chorus they are desired to perform. The
birds listen eagerly to the music, turning
their attention to the quarter whence it
proceeds
Their gaze is naturally directed to the
mirror, in which they see the reflection
of their own graceful persons. At once
they hop to the conclusion that their
counterfeit presentments arc real, live
canaries, meIodiously engaged in singing
the unfamiliar strains that delight their
ears. From observation, it appears, is
but step with the intelligent and tune
full canary bird. He is apt, in concerted
music, to double part, and betrays a
predilection for the "leading business"
recognizes the desirability of filling up
the notes. wanting to complete the chords,
and adapts himself to harmonic require
ments with artistic promptitude. Wag-
ner's "Trilogy," performed by company
of canaries, may thus be an attractive
item in the operate performances of the

A Baby Shoots Itseif.
New York Herald

A strange case of shooting occurred
yesterday afternoon at No. 22a Catherine
street, the victim being a baby seventeen
months old, who in some mysterious way
pulled the trigger of self-acting re-
voIver, the ball entering the abdomen
and coming out on the left side. At the
Fourth Precinct Station-house the case
was reported in the ordinary way, as an
accident which happened in play between
the baby and little girl named Fanny
Phillips, who is eleven years old. A Her
aid reporter called at the residence of the
injured child and had talk with the
father and mother, Mr.. and Mrs. Miller
man, German, who keep lager-beer sa-
loon.
MiIlerman stated that his wife being
delicate, he was in the habit of sleeping
on lounge in the sitting-room (the
family occupy only two rooms at the
rear Of the store) and every night placed
his revolver under the lounge when re-
tiring. Yesterday morning the brewery
man awoke him early, and he forgot in
the hurry to put the weapon in his
pocket. He. stated that when the acci-
dent occurred he was on the sidewalk
getting in some coal. His child had been
in the care of Fanny, whose mother occu-
pied rooms in the upper partof the house.
1t was only yesterday morning, Miller
man said, that he told his wife TO employ
Fanny regularly. III
When the revolver went off Millcrman
thought that seltzer bottle or ginger-ale
bottle had burst; but the truth dawned
upon him when he saw the baby in Fan
ny s arms, the little girl being terribly
frightened. When the baby met with
the accident Fanny was at the opposite
corner of the room. Some dishes were
under the lounge, with which the chill
dren were in the habit of playing, and
Millcrman thought that the baby had got
hold of the revolver while looking for
these dishes. How the infant could pull
the trigger with her tiny hands, Miller
man said, was to him mystery.
This same fact also caused no little sur
missing among the neighhors in the street,
and theories were advanced as to how
such strange accident could occur. Diff
ferent stories were in circulation as to the
singular occurrence. Millerman had a
doctor promptly on hand after the unfor-
tunate affair, and a surgeon from the
Chambers-street Hospital visited the
child subsequently,. The little one was
still living at midnight last night, but
the chance of her recovery is very slight.
She is the first and only child Of her

A somewhat remarkable coincidence of
names and circumstances has cost the
city $40 50 for cable telegraphing and
furnished the newspapers quite an excit-
inc, although transtory, sensation.
Richard Kuohn, a respectable young
German butcher, closed out his business
here and last June, accompanied by his
wife, went abroad, announcing that he
intended visiting his relatives in Saxony.
He returned last week, and meantime
some Of our police had read IN account,
republished from Hanover paper, of a
very terrible murder which occurred on
the 9th of September at little town in
Saxony, near Dresden. One Richard
Kuehn had murdered his father, his
brother and sister, in most horrible
manner and then disappeared.
Putting this, that and the other to-
gether, the officers referred to conceived
that an opportunity for capturing great
criminal was in their hands, and last
Tuesday they seized the returned Rich.
ard, made thorough but unremunera-
tive search of his baggage, and finally
locked him up to await developments. A
telegram was at once sent to the authori
ties of the locality of the tragedy. NJ
answer came until yesterday, and th(
young man remained in durahce unit
that time, the center of good deal O
interest; but yesterday the expected re
ply from Germany came, saying that Tho
murderous Richard Kuehn had beer
found and arrested in that country, ant
suggesting that it would be the prope
thing togive the innocent Richard KuchI
his liberty. So the iron door was openet
and Richard stepped forth, once more ,
free man, and relieved of all suspicion o
! the horrible crime.

Glycerine in Diphtheria. According to
the Medizn Zeitung, of Vienna, Profess
sor Glars success with the use of gly-
cerine in diphtheria admits of no doubt.
He first prescribes a gentle aperient,
either in the form of a manna draught,
or Of a few grains of calomel, which
last he holds to be a powerful antipho-
CYSTIC remedy, and when properly used
of great value. Coincidentally he d.
reefs cold congresses or clothes to the
neck and head, or even to the chest,
carefully renovated according to the ell
ovation or depression Of the tempera-
ture, cold or iced water being at the
same time given as a drink, and then
commences at once the use Of iron-gly-
cerine, which consists of two ounce of
anhydrous glycerine and twenty drops
of the liquid sesquichloride of iron. Of
this mixture, half a te~aspoonful is given
every half-hour throughout the day and
night.

Found Clinging to a CabIei

The amount of submarine life that
comes up on a cable which is taken up
for repairs after being immersed for a
year or two is surprising. Three years
ago a repairing expedition on tie Para
to Cayenne station Of the Western and
Brazilian Company'S cables was chiefly
at work off the island at Marajo, in the
estuary of the Amazon. The cable had
only been submerged about a month;
yet it came on board the ship at places
literally covered with barnacles, at
others overgrown with submarine veg
citation, crabs, and curious shells, often
Of singular delicacy and beauty. AThe
seaweeds were in great variety clinging
to the cable, sometimes in thick groves
of red and yellow alg@; slender, trans.
parent, feather grasses; red, Shiny fu-
colds and tufts of amethyst moss
Branching coralline wat found, upward
Of a foot in height, growing to the ca.
BILE, the soft skeleton being covered
with a fleshy skin, generally of a deep
orange color. Sometimes a sponge was
found attached to the roots of these
corals, and delicate calcaeous stric-
lures of varied tints incrusted the stems
of all these plants, and served to orna-
ment as well as to strengthen them.
Parasitic life seems to be as rife under
those soft, tepid waters, as on the neigh
boring tropical shores. Many star-ish-
es, ~z0ophytes and c%rustaceans were
likewise fished up on the cable. The
crabs were often Themselves complete
ly overgrown with the indigenous veg
citation of the bottom, and SO were
scarcely distingulshable from 1t. Others
although not so covered, were found to
have the same tlnts as the vegetation
they inhabited, and even In structure
somewhat resembled the latter. Others
again, were perfectly or partially trans
parent; and n most beautiful hyaline
crab, new to Science, united in its per.
son several Of the prevailing colors OF
the bottom. Its slender limbs, like
jointed hlaments Of glass, were stained
here and there OF a deep topaz brown.
Its snout pointed like a needle, was of
a deep scarlet its triangular body was
Of a deep yellow; Its ayes were green,
and its tiny limbs Of vstnethyst blue.

SCIENTIFIC.

Respiration Affected By Pood.-A very
careful examination, by DIR. Spesk, Of
the changes produced I the respiratory
process by the use OF fatty food, OF cOf-
fee, quinihe, alcohol and water, aud by
the inspiration Of air respectively rich
In carbolic acid, poor In oxygen and
rich In oxygen, has led him 10 the fol-
lowing conclusions: With an increased
proportion Of hydrogen In diet, the am
mount OF air inspired and expired de-
creases, and nutrlments, such as sugar,
which contain little hydrogen In com
parison with their oxygen, involve
more exertlon Of the respiratory organs
than such as are rich In hydrogen, like
the fats; the more carbon predominates
In the food, in proportion to hydrogen,
the more air is exhaled In proportion to
that inhaled, the nor carbon increases
In the diet In proportion TO hydrogen,
the more carbonic acid is evolved and
the nor oxygen Is taken up-while the
richer the diet In hydrogen the less OK
ygen is required. An atmosphere on
tanning 8 or 6 per cent. of carbonic acid
could be breathed for some minutes
without oppression; at IL 81 per cent,
great exertion was needed to breathe
for one minute; at 7.2 all the carbonic
acid produced in the body is retained
In the blood.
