The Language Of animals

Those who have ever been much with
animals are well aware that they all
have q mode Of expressing feeling TO
others Of the came species. Who does not

that she has tender morsel for them

pending danger, aud who has not OBJ
served how quickly the little chicks

by the same thought, and therefore
travel for hours to accomplish that Of
which each member Of the enterprise
has a rational understanding. Deer and
buffalo act in concert in regard to hunt
ing food CT water. Perhaps the govern
ment of wild horses through signs
which any horse in a band of hundreds
instantly recognizes as an imperative
command of one individual who prances
up and down like one in authority, is
about as perfect rs anything in natural

and mice, too, and even insects, are

Not 1888, but 1888.

There have been for centuries doubts
as to the correctness of the accepted
calculation of the Christian era Some
learned historians cannot agree whether
Christ was born in the year TAI. 749, OF
754, counting from the foundation of
Rome. Recently Professor Sattler, of
Munich, has published an essay in which
he tries to reconcile the testimony OF
the Evangelists with the other histori-
cal data on this point He has examined
four copper coins, newly discovered,
which were struck in the reign of Herod
Antipas, one of the sons of Herod the
Great, and comes to the conclusion that
Christ was born not 754, but 749 years
after the foundation of Rome, and
therefore that the present year is 1888
instead Of 1888. This opinion the Pro-
lessor tries to corrobOrate by the testi-
mony of the Evangelists.
According to st. Matthew, Jesus was
born toward the end of the reign OF
Herod the Great, and when that King
died Jesus was yet a little child. Ac.
cording t. st. Luke Jesus was born in
the year in which, by virtue of decree
Of Augustus Caesar. Cyrenius, Governor
of Syria, made the first census of Judea
Again, st. Luke says that St. John
began to baptize in the fifteenth year of
the reign of Tiberius Caesar, and in
that year baptized Jesus. who was
then thirty years of age. As to the first
testimony there can be no misunder-
standing. Christ, being born in 749,
was of course yet babe in $50, when
Herod died. But the other testimony
needs some explanation. From the
BreUiarium Impeyii Census of the
Empire) which was added to the will
Of Augustus Caesar, it is evident that a
thorough census of the countries that
composed the Roman empire must have
been made. In fact, Augustus had
three censuses of his possessions
made, namely. in 726, TAG, and 766.
As st. Luke says that in Judea the first
census was made during the reign OF
Herod, the census must have been or.
dered in TAG. Probably the census was
begun II. Judea in 747, and Professor Sat
tier thinks it was not made in Jerusa
lem earlier than 749. He finds that the
four coins enable him to make clear the
testimony of the Evangelist as to the
fifteenth year of the reign of Tiberius.
Though Augustus. died on August 10,
767, yet the beginning of the reign Of
Tiberius must be counted a year and a
half earlier February 1867, when he
was appointed co-regent. Therefore
the fifteenth year Of the reign OF
Tiberius falls in $50, when St. John
baptized jesus, who was then about
thirty years of age.
An Evangelist says that Christ began
tn preach forty-six years after the
temple at Jerusalem was built BY
Herod. Now, it is known that the
building of the temple was begun
eighteen years after Herod was APP
pointed by the Roman Senate as Regent
OF Judea, or in the year 1874 from the
foundation of Rome. Adding forty
six to that year, it gives $50 as the year
in which Christ began to preach.
Ii all these calculations of Professor
Sattler are correct, then the Christian
era began five years earlier than is
usually supposed, making the current
year 1883 instead of 1883.-N T. Sun.

The rule forbidding the stopping OF
street cars on fremont street, between
Boylston and Broomfeld, at places other
than street corners, gave rise to an
amusing incident day or two since.
1t was on Highland car, which had
bit two occupants, one of whom was
young lady who was DESTROYS of stop
ping at Mason street. As the car ap.
preached the corner she turned to sig
nal the conductor, but that employee was
ia the act of kissing his hand to young
woman on the walk, and before his at
tention could be attracted, the car had
passed the stopping-place, and the young
LAZY sank resignedly into her seat and
role to West street. There the con-
ductor rung to stop, and the pretty, but
rather indignant, passenger stepped to
the platform and, with slight sparkle
ia her eye, said: II am unseitish enough
to walk mile if you could give her a
genuine kiss, but this is little too
much. "--Boston HroM.
