Man a Fighting Animal.

Do what we will with him, man is naturally
a hghtlng animal. There is a curious auto
biography to be found In southern bookshopS
written by an old hunter who was born about
century ago. There is the same thirst for blood
and fierce love OF the chase in IL as IL beast of
prey or greyhound was telling Its story. The
most amusing example is where the old man
tells how he and HIS SONS once trained some
young dogs TO hunt bears " / put on the skin
OF an Old BEAR he says "and crawled about
on all fourS while Elisha and Job drove the
pups On. They were scared at first, but pre-
sently the whole six attacked me furiously, bit

Don't, dad, don't. It's the life OF the pups -"
He adds, OF course stayed. had consider
alton for the dogs" IL takes a great deal of
framing to root out this instinct from men
who inherit it. Everybody knows the his
tory OF the fighting Quakers" during
the revolutionary war. Many of the staid
sons OF stald slres OF the same faith slipped out
OF meetings during the last war to shoulder
a musket. One venerable old Friend in Ger
mantown, Pa, found that three OF his sons had
gore 20 this conflict against which hts creed
arrayed him. The youngest felt that he, too,
must go, but feared to tell his family. He took
himself In his fathers way. The old gentleman
saw him and paced slowly up and down, but
said nothing. Presently he approached the old
man. Charles" he said, deliberately, SIT the

Not INGENIOUS ENoUGH.-The Rev. John Rich
ardson Burrow, late curate OF Gainford church.
at present an inmate OF her majesty's prison 1t
Durham, is so ingenious person that he ought
TO have kept himself out OF jail. Mr.. Burrow
was charged the other day with having commit
ted an assault upon his servant, a girl OF l6. In
support OF this accusation the proSecutrix gave
very distinct evidence, which left no doubt OF
the defendants guilt on the minds OF those who
believed her. AS the reverend gentleman plead
ed "not guilty" We Will assume that he thought
himself so. Unfortunately, he had no witnesses
the assault being declared TO have taken place
on night when Mrs. Burrow was away from
home-and he was thus driven into specula-
tive defense, with the object or accounting for
the delusion under which the proSecutrtx labor

into play In the first place, he alleged that the
girl was SOmnambulist, and next, that, being
thus subject TO unconscious cerebration- OF q
powerful kind, she dreamed the events to which
she had deposed. Instances are not unknown
OF dream incidents leaving a vivid impression
OF reality upon the waking brain: but the Dur.
ham jury, who were probably not psychologists,
dismissed the theory OF vision, and found Mr.
Burrow guilty. whereupon he was sentenced to
twelve months hard labor. Until next July,
