A Lesson of PoIiteness.
[From All the Year Round.1

At Derby, Judge Maule was in the act
OF passing sentence upon a man, when
the governor of the county Jail came to
the table to deliver some calendars to
members of the bar, and, in so doing,
passed between the prisoner and the
Judge. Maule thereupon intimated to
the governor that, in SO doing, he had
outraged one Of the best known conven-
tional rules of society. "Don't you
know, " said the judge, "you ought never
to pass between two gentlemen when one
gentleman is addressing another ?" The
offender against this conventional rule
aapologized and retired, whereupon the
judge sentenced the other gentleman to
seven years transportation. ~

The Sense of Hearing in Birds.

prof. Grant Allen in Popular Science Monthly.l
But it is when we arrive at the sense
of hearing that we come to the point
where proper aesthetic feelings begin.
It is quite impossible to doubt that birds
are fond of musical sounds. The song of
our own nightingales and innets, the
deep notes of the South American bell
bird, the incessant cooling of the dove,
the noisy chattering of the parrots, the
ringing cry of the whippoorwill, all lead
to the same conclusion. Here again
these sounds are precisely of the same
nature as those employed by the crick-
cts, katydids, cicadas, and other musical
insects, as well as by man himself in his
vocal and instrumental music. Some
thing of the same taste is displayed
among the quadrumana by the howlers
and other monkeys. But it is note
worthy fact thata large majority of these
presumably sexual calls in birds, insects,
and other animals are true musical
sounds, not mere noises. [ have pointed
out elsewhere the probable reason for
this preference of pure tones in the case
of mankind; and the same argument will
apply, naot0tis n1attzn0js, to all other
animals. But there is cert5inly singu-
lar analogy In this respect between
sounds and colors, most animals
preferring the relatively pure and
simple musical tones to confused
noises; and the relatively pure and sim
pie analytic colors, red, blue, green, and
yellow, to confused mixtures such as
brown, gray, and mud-color. At any
rate, bird evidently pays far more at
tention to the musical class of auditory
perceptions than to mere noise. A ca
nary will take no notice of ordinary con-
fused sounds IN q room; but, if one be-
gins to chirp or whistle to it, it immedi-
ately responds with another chirp in en-
ulation. So, too, when a piano or other
musical instrument is played in the
neighborhood of singing bird, it will
often show it's recognition of the musical
character by pouring out it's very fullest
flood of song, as if to conquer it's uncon-
scious rival. Of course, the singing
matches between birds themselves are
too Familiarity known to call for separate
mention. It may be worth while, how
ever, to notice that this love of musical
sound exists even among certain reptiles;
for [ have often seen the common house
lizard of Jamaica listening with evident
interest and attention to the playing OF
piano, turning his head from side to
side, and scampering away when dis
turbed, only to return again to the fas.
cinating sound after minute or two Of
hesitation.

What is Hope? A smiling rainbow
Children follow through the wet;
TITS not here, still yonder, yonder;
Never urchin found it yet.
What is Life? A thawing iceberg
On sea with sunny shore;-
Gay, we sail; it melts beneath us:
We are sunk, and see no more,
What is Man? A foolish baby,
Vainly strives, and fights, and frets;
Demanding all, deserving nothing;-
One small grave is all he gets.

given to this delay is ID the effect that Mr. Swift
times his arrival here at date when the provisions
OF the treaty will have been given to the public in
order to secure grand reception. The well-known
candidacy of Mr.. Swift for Governor gives color to
this somewhat shadow forecast of the general re-

hind is interpreted as importing triumph of that
