In his emineptly interesting work, en-
titled "Jungle Life in India, |" Mr.. Ball
has adduced good reasons for believing
that the old classical story Of the rear
ing of Romulus and Remus by She
wolf may be founded on fact. The au-
thor cites the case of two lads in an Or
phanage at Sekandra, near Agra, who
had been discovered among wolves, and
in many ways shared the habits Of these
animals. One of his stories is supported
by letter from Prof. Max Muller. It
says: "a trooper sent by the native
Governor of Chandaur to demand pay
ment of some revenue, was passing
along the banks of the river about noon,
when he saw large female wolf leave
her den, followed by three whelps and q
little boy. The boy went on all-fours,
and when the trooper tried to catch him
he ran as fast as the whelps ard kept up
with the old one. They all entered the
den, but were dug out by the people
with pickaxes, and the boy was secured.
He struggled hard to rush into every
hole or den they came near. He be-
came alarmed when he he saw a grown
up person, but tried to fly at children
and bite them. He rejected cooked
meat with disgust, but delighted in raw
flesh and bones, putting them under his
paws like dog. They tried to make
him speak, but could get nothing from
him hut an angry growl or snarl.''
Another instance is quoted as having
occurred at Chupra- A Hindoo father
and mother went out to get their crop in
March, 1SlS. The woman had with her
a little boy, who lately had been severely
burned on the left knee. While the par
ents were at work the child was carried
off by wolf. Some years afterwards
o wolf with three cubs was seen about
ten miles from Chupra followed by a
boy. The boy, after much resistance,
was caught and recognized by the mark
Of the burn on the left knee. He could
eat nothing but raw flesh, and could
never be brought to speak. He used to
mutter and snarl, but never articulated
distinctly. The pans of his knees and
the points of his elbows had become
horny from going on all tours with the
wolves. In November, 1850, this boy
escaped again and disappeared into the
Jungle. Thus the - she-wolf's litter "
of Macaulay's 'Lays of Ancient Rome"
may have been, after all, no myth

The Wust He Ever Seed.

THERE was quite commotion caused
on Dryades Street, near Common, last
night, by a spirited dispute between an
old and a young man of the African
persuasion. OF course woman, or
rather a girl, was at the bottom of the
trouble. The old man stood in the
doorway, and shaking his fist at the
object of his wrath who lowered on the
ragged edge of the banquette. ex-
claimed:
Now look hyar, young man! l
done tOle you three times to distrac'
desc premises and huff dat gal lone. l
amt raised her for no black pup like
you, and she amt gwine to frow hirself
away to no drunken niggah nohOw!
Now if l catch you snoozin' roun' dat
gal agin, Use gwine to confine myself to
more fussible argument wild de help
OBJ good pair of heels. Now you min
dat"
The young man at first seemed in
clined to pursue a pacific policy, but,
noticing the jeering and laughing of the
crowd, changed his mind, and shaking
his fist in return gave vent to his feelings
in this manner:
"Misser Taylor, you knows 1 likes
Bermuda and de gal likes me too, and
Use gwine to hab her and if fifty ole
niggers 'ud stand in de way, an if you
waren't Bermuda's father I'd q cut
shoe strings outer yer ole skin long
ago!"
The old mans eyes dilated, whilst
the smile of demon stole over his face,
and sliding swiftly into the house he re-
turned a moment later with pistol as
big as good sized rifle, the muzzle of
which could successfully compete with
one of Krupp's forty Founders. He
pointed the internal machine at his
would-be son-in-law and said:
eyer is gwine to cut shoe strings
outer dis ole man, ehP Now, you see
dis ere pistol? It's filled one-hah wild
powder an de oder half with buckshot,
an if you doont board the gospel ship
right now and sail outer sight in half q
mint III let her go an yer can pick up
what's left OBJ yer!"
The young man and about dozen
of the crowd standing near him did sail
out of sight around the nearest corner
in less than half a minute, whilst the
old man, watching the exodus, gleefully
exclaimed:
"Dar's muffin in dat pistol, an de
barrel is made outer wood, but it's de

Old and New Ways Of Locking th,
Federal Strong Boxes.

In the Office of the Treasurer of the
United States is glass case which con-
tains the keys which were used in the
olden times to lock the Treasury vaults.
Now that time-locks and combinations
have taken the place of these keys,
they are kept framed as relics of the
degenerate" days. Mr.. Gilfllan says
that in the old times the Treasurer
when the vaults were locked up carried
the keys home with him, and several
times the house of the Treasurer, who
had the keys in custody, has been
broken into by thieves to get these open
sesames. Under the present system
the vaults are locked by time and COM
bination-locks. There are inner and
outer doors to the vaults. The officer
who knows the combination to open the
the outer door does not know the COM
bination which opens the inner, and
vice versa Hence no one person can
get into the vaults. When the combine
ton is changed the changes are noted
by different clerks and handed to
Treasurer Gilfillan in sealed envelope.

Our Young Renders.
NOW, AND THEN.

i" WELL, well, wellr' said grandmamms,
"Only to see the toys
The marvels of skill and Of beauty.
That are made for these girls and boys
VelOcipedes, acrObats, barrOws,
And dozen kinds OF ball,
And the beautiful bows and arrows,
With quivers and belts and all;
And dolls, with an outfit from Paris,
With eyes that open and shut,
With jewelry worth & small fortune,
And six several bonnets-tut, tut!
/" MY goodness! If Polly and Rachel,
Who played in old times with me,
In the corner down by the smoke house,
These wonderful dolls could see!
Rachers doll had round head whitfield
From bit Of soft pine wood;
And POllys was only cOrn-cOb,
With CALICO slip and hood.
My doll was lovely rag-baby,
With badly-inked eyes and nose;
Her cheeks were painted with cherry-juico;
And made every stitch of her clothes.
" Nathan's bow was plant whalebOne,
And his arrow whitepine stick;
Such life as his archery practice
Led the cats and each wretched chickl
Our tea-sets were bits Of dishes
That mother had thrown away,
With chincapin saucers and acOrn-cups;
With May-apple leaf for a parasol
We played 'Lady-cOme-tO-see,'
Polly's house was the kitchen doorstep,
And mine was the apple-tree.
" We never saw Germans and .Matinees,'
And we played good romping plays;
And, somehow. think we were happier far
Than the children are nowadays.
Our swing was an old, wild grapevine;
We waded and climbed and ran,
And never were weary. nor sick, nor bored
From the minute that day began.
Well. well, well!'' said grandmamma,
"In spite of their wonderful toys,
/ do believe we had merrier times
Than these little girls and boys!"

Lovely WOman-Her Rights and Her
Wrongs.

Coop WOMAN, we know you have
your wrongs, and we know you need
your rights, and we intend that you
shall have them-your rights; that is,
you shall have youp rights if we have
to give them toyou yourself" Not only
your rights, but your lefts. Take the
whole pair; there is nothing mean
about us.
Seriously, we believe in your emanci-
patton.
We know you do more work for less
money than your brother can be hired
to do. We know that you are under
paid, as q rule, for most that you do.
We know how you have been elbowed
and crowded out of the professional
world SO long as men could keep you
out. We know that your rights have
been disregarded alike by the hostility
ofyOur enemies and the careless thought
lessness of your friends. We know how
your courage, fidelity and ability have
been moderated. And if we could
we would overturn all this in min
ute. Personally, we would like to
put the ballot in your hands this fall,
knowing as we do that your hands
would honor it. But, with all this, we
fear that man is not your worst enemy.
Your most imperious and pitiless tyrant
is woman. Now, don't fare up and in
terrupt before we are through. Nobody,
we repeat. is so hard on you as women.

Correspondence.


Mr.. Edit0T.--It seems to me that our
system Of instruction from the common
school, through the college, isnot what
it ought 10 be. Where are all the
graduates FROM our higher schools and
colleges, that take their diplomas with
"high honors:" What becomes OF
them: What do we hear from them
afterward? Are they known from the
unlsarned? Is it college graduates
that makes the world move? Are they
the backbone of business? Are they
the marrow, the muscle. or even the
brain Of business l tell you, nay.
Only very ftIo OF them even shine, and
but q small proportion are even known
from the common people. 4 case in
point. A few days ago, a gentleman
told me that he put his son, who had
just graduated with honors, into his
counting room to assist his head clerk,
who was a boy picked up in the street.
lie said his son didn' I know any more
about business than calf he was
OF no use 10 him was afraid he never
would be, and he didn't know as he
would ever be capable of earning his
own living. This is the common story.
And is it not largely true of our COM
mon schools and why? Because busi-
ness is not taught IN TIE srhOOlr0om. The
worlds everyday business must be put
into the schoolroom. Scholars must
be taught business, and the principles
and rules that govern it. The business
of the world is run by practical men,
that have had few thoughts knocked
into them in such way that they
know h01c to use them. .'0ld Hickory"
and Rail Splitter signify deal more
than CARLOAD of college abbrevia-
tons. Teachers should get out of the
old ruts Of theories and book questions,
and feed their scholars with that which
has life. Teach them what they must
know in order to be successful in life.
Many so called scholars, go to some
commercial college to learn business.
This il wroug. / say the common
school should be sufficient to give all a
practical business education. Our high
schools should do more than this, in
arts, as well as in the sciences. A short
term, Of live, practical teaching will be
far better than the present knock-in-
head system, especially when little sim
pie innocent girls are set up as teachers,
who don't know a cord foot from loaf
Of brown bread as far as constructive
ness is concerned, but who can give the
exact definition Of beaux, with all the
attendant accents and infections.

vastly more convenient than the usual
unwieldly quarto or octave, and their
price is cheap beyond all precedent in
book-making, so that to the uniniti-
ated it is a mystery how SO much can
be given for little money, but to the
practical printer and book maker, who
knows how the greatest element in
modifying the cost of books is the num-
Der of buyers among whom the invest

der would be not that the books can
be made for the price, but that the
