Another child of the prolific old lady
of Albion is Australia, and for that mat
ter the twin sister, Victoria. Their af-
fection is entirely domestic, however.
They are overrun with rabbits. This pest
has grown to such alarming dimensions
as to require the most stringent legisla-
tion. A bill has been passed in South
Australia which makes the extermina-
ton of these destructive little animals
compulsory upon the landowners at
whatever cost, while the Government as
sumes the same duty on the Crown or
unoccupied lands. The penalty for will
fully setting loose rabbit in the Prov
ince is $500, and the provisions of the
bill to rid the country of these pests
seem to be of the most arbitrary charac-
ter, but it is claimed that the urgency
of the danger justities the severity OF the
law.

TROUBLE OF A LARGE FAMILY.

England, with all her numerous colo
MES, dependencies and protectorates, has
her hands as full of business and her
mind set with as many perplexitles
as befell the old woman who lived in a
shoe, Of whom it was POLITICALLY said that
she chad so many children that she
didn't know what to do"
Canada is becoming refractory and
talks about annexation to the United
States, and has established system Of
import duties that shut out the fabrics of
the maternal loom and workshop to a
certain extent.
The Imperial East Indies are not so
forthcoming in rupees and tribute as
when the rupees passed through the
hands of company officers and nabobs;
and, what with prolonged famine and in
ternal Improvements and vast military
establishment and frequent revolts of
mountain tribes and the ravages of the
cholera, India has become perplexity
and rather an incubus.
England has such a wonderful inca
pacity for letting other people alone, es-
pecially weaker nations, that she always
has great many questions of foreign
policy to agitate her statesmen and keep
her folks in stew. At one time it is
extorting concessions from the Ameer of
Afghanistan at the point of the bayoret,
at another the Turkish loan must be
looked after and the Khedive forced to
take care of overdue coupons.
South Africa has been made, both fig
uratively and literally, hot by the bush
ranging Zulus, and possible peace has
only been achieved after great losses and
singing national humilition. The New
Zealanders, who have almost entirely
been weaned from their love Of roast
missionary, are now showing a disposi'
sition to assert their human rights. The
Maori chiefs refuse to surrender the
richest tracts Of land to settlers, or to al
low railway enterprises to be carried
through the country at the will of the
English Colonsts, confscated property
which has been held by settlers under
Crown grants, have been seized by the
Maoris, who claim that they have never
been legally diyested of their rights in
the property. Stores have been broker

ties the Colonists have become 81
alarmed as to abandon their homes ant

Chicago Inter-Ocean (Rep.): General
Palmer, of the Illinois State Register,
says there is no more connection be-

LADIES BONNRTs.

The photographer who defines lady's
bonnet as an article for covering lady's
head is a daring man, for assuredly they
do not pretend, except in accidental cases,
to do anything of the sort. They do not,
furthermore, protect the head from the
rain, nor the face from the sun, nor the
neck from the wind. They are con-
structed of materials that are wrecked
by gale of wind, wilted by shadow or
even by heavy dew, and ruined by a
cloud of dust. They neither impart any
warmth in winter nor protection from
the heat of summer. They do not really
serve any legitimate purpose that we are
able to see except to enable milliners to
thrive honestly at their trades, or to
rack the hearts of other ladies with
envy when one puts on the latest agony
in these distracting inv entions that the
spring or fall styles have produced and
makes her appearance in public.
What a gamut of extraordinary in
ventions in these curiosities have we not
undergone in twenty or thirty years, say
since our grandmothers shone resplend-
ent in their huge calashes, similar to a
buggy-cover, or the enormous things with
rims and crowns and bows and feathers,
which captured our grandfathers-poor,
innocent souls. From those enormities
we progressed, by slow gradations, to the
hat, or head-dress representing one, a
little larger than postage stamp, that
did jaunty service in conjunction with
the huge waterfall" that, in similitude
of hair, was suspended upon the back of
the head These in turn have had their
day, and we are now on the rebound
towards the sweet monstrosities of our
grandmothers. OF the bewildering va
rieties of taste and elegance, and alas!
that we must add, of ugliness, that are
seen upon the streets and in the milli-
ners' windows who is magician enough
to fifty speak? There are little scoops
that are to be poised on the summit of q
mountain of hair, piled up so that the
ladies' heads resemble more horses heads
than those of angels. Then there are the
rakish oad-brims, which are puckered
into shapes that lead one to suspect that
the milliners apprentice has sat down OIL
it before delivering to the customer.
There are jaunty Gypsy hats, rounc
hats, tall hats, square hats, short hats
sailor hats soft hats and those starchec
till they seem to have been constructed
of cast iron. There are hats that seen
struggling to turn themselves inside out
hats that turn up behind, that turn NJ
before and that turn up at the sides anc
some that turn up in desperation all the
way round or resignedly turn down with
out any apparent hope of ever getting VI
in the world at all. These are-but this is
not a milliner's catalogue. There are hap
PLY the rosy faces of the ladies that nc
invention of the modistes can make othe
than beautiful, and which go far to rec
oncile us to some of the horrid contriy
ances Of ugliness that appear every yea
for their Disagreement in the way o
hats and bonnets We wonder whethe
every woman would be positively bat
looking if she could be provided with
bonnet exactly suited to her style.
