Timbrophily.

There is a carlous origin ascribed
to timbrophlly, by which high sound
ing name postage. stamp collecting is
designated. The missionaries in In
dia are said to be able 10 reclaim
from the heartless Hindoo parents
the little babies they are accustomed
to sacrifice before their idols, by trad
ing postage stamps with them. For
some reason these barbarians covet
these paper tokens, either to offer to
their gods after the manner of the
Chinese, or to decorate their huts.-
This fact, becoming known in Eng
land, has worked a change 10 the
economy OF Cancelled stamps. There
are charity schools in England to
which admittance is gained by pre-
senting certain number of defaced
stamps. Large counting houses
throughout the realm carefully pre-
serve every envelope, and the junior
clerks make it their business to soak
off the Queens heads and paste them
on huge rolls of wall paper. They
are presented to some worthy lad
who makes an exchange of them for
learning.

Why, child, | went because-and then

I'D often told her brother Ben
When the recital thrilled me through.
And still she urged. what did you for?
Papa, what made you go to war ?"
looked abroad The blacks were free,
But voiceless, voteless, filled with woe,
Slaves OF their masters seemed to be
AS much as twenty years ago.

A rifle club went wheeling by;

Chinese and Foreig ners.

Thomas w. Knox has written a
little book which the HarpeTs pub
lish in the Half II our Series, called
John, or our Chinese r lations. y
He thinks the Chinese Government
and people would like to send the
foreigner, bag and baggage, out of
their country. The whole book NAV
be read in an hour, and it is very
amusing; here is passage:
"From all l have heard. both
from natives and foreigners, am
sure they would willingly tear up
their treaties with US, recall their
own people from other lands, and
permit no more emigration, and pay
every foreigner now living in China
the full value of bis property there,
and give him free passage to his
home. OF course there are many
exceptions, but it may be set down
as rnls that She Chinese detest the
foreigner, AMI Only tolerate him be-
cause he must. The feeling per-
vades all classes of the people, and
not only toe people, but the lower
animals. Chinese ponies snort and
start when yon come near them. the
dogs bark at you, the cats soarl aud
flee with enlarged tails and elevated
oack-hair, aud even the meek and
ruminaDt cow takes shy at you
with her horns.
''On this latter ppint | could O.
late q narrowing tale of how friend
and myself were pursued by an in
furiated cow in Chinese city, and
how she would not be turned from
her purpose, but kept after US for
some minutes or more. My friend
ran swiftly, and kept a little ahead
of the beast; Of course | wouldn't
be so undignified as to run from
COW. but | managed to keep at the
side of my feet friend, and came
out trife 10 advance of him. We
furnished free amusement to crowd
of Chinese, who looked and laughed,
thinking it was capital fun TO see a
couple OF barbarians pursued by a
Chinese COW, and never stopping to
CO.'S d how the barbarians m ght
like il. But the tables are turned,
and more than turned in San Frau
cisco and Melbourne, whore the
white man has great deal Of sport
at Chinese expense In each of those
cities it is not unusual to sea large
dog pursuing frightened Celestial.
amid the jsers of a group of voters
who have set the brute to his work. -
