The papers Of St. Petersburg, Mos
COW and other Russian cities with
universities, contain many advertise
ments from students, offering their
services as private teachers. Such
advertisements often read thus: "a
student, having no means whatever,
prays for any kind Of work at any rate
Of remuneration Many Russian
students support themselves by giving
lessons in the evening, and not a few
Of them live on tho verge Of starva-
ton. There have even been cases Of
death by starvation among them.

Cats and birds do not mind being
laughed at, but dogs and horses are
sensitive TO ridicule. Sidney Buxton
relates in The Animal World that his
pony gets very cross when disparag-
ing remarks are made upon him, and
becomes furious, stamping about his
stall, putting back his ears and at
tempting to bite if he is openly
laughed at; whereas, praise greatly
pleases him. The Spectator believes
that dogs, and probably horses, know
the difference between being laughed
at in derision and being laughed at in
admiration, aud enjoy the latter as
much as they resent tho former but
regards it as questionable whether
some parrots do not understand and
enjoy the practice of making fun of
their human acquaintances-do not
appreciate the art of dipping and take
pleasure in il.

By the amendment to The charter passra bS
the Legislature at It's last session, and which
went into force July l, It Is necessary that
n majority Ut nl1 thu members Of tho Coun-
ell should CONCUR wIt, the Mayor in his re-
movslot M officer. Failing Of tlat consent, tho
officer goes back 10 duty. Tic Interviews with
the Aldermen given above. show quito plainly
what tlley th.nk On this subject, and Indicate
that tie Mayor would not BIZ Sustained by the
Council. But, unfortunately, the Law dues not cut
20 much OF figure In the, case because A1ar-
ahal Denncr's term expires At the ot,d Of tlis
month, and tho question wlll then be not
whether the Council wil concur In Ills removal,
but whether they will confirm the pcrson whom
Air. Harrison seiids In Us his successor. Yet IL
Is sato to say, from the interviews hnd With the
Aldermen, that they will not vote for the con-
hrmation Of my man whom they do not believe
ncr is. ...
There are unqucs'lonably excellent. men in
the Department, but mono OF thcm have yet
dispfayed those qualities {possibly for lack Of
oprorluntty) which Benier so cmi,lently has
There would, perlapt, TO less ob1tctlon, to
ihat OF any one else. but the beliet is TINT tho
Mayor don't intend to send in Hweute, but Rono
outsider, n1ui TINT outsiders confirmation will
certainly be beaten. For tho present Marshal
Hcuuer Is out, md 6wcnic is IN charge; aht
the Marshal will ftay out until the Council de-
terms Of The charter, he goes blck into Office,
and will rc1nnlp there until his term Of Office
expires at the end Ut the month. BY that time
II ts confidently believed tic unanimous pressure
