But there is this difference between

hen about as well as a woman.
A rooster knows more'n hen, but he
don't alters show it. The rooster is a
negative cuss. He struts around with
an I-know-all- ll-about-it-b -l-ain't-goin'-
to-tell sort of an air, an so sometimes we
are left in doubt as to his intelligence
But, as minded critic, we are bound
to give him the credit of that doubt.
But whether or not the rooster has more
sense than hen, he ain't-all the time
getting into foolish scrapes like hen.
A hen will run back and forth along
side of fence forty or fifty times, trying
to get over into the next yard, and go
every time within two foot of an open
| gate, but never anv nearer to it at any
time, and will finally git mad an fly
over, a shriekin' an cut-cuttaring, an
maxim as much fuss generally as a
woman does when she finds the fortygaff

A King as a Bru &c.

have heard Mr.. Leitch relate many
curious incidents which fell under his
notice when at Rome at this time. OF
the following have his own account in
writing:
"Among my pupils was Lady Ogle,
wife of Admiral Sir Charles Ogle.
Frequently, when was giving a lesson,
she would be visited by ladies of her
acquaintance, including many of the
Italian nobility. On one of these oc.
casions the servant announced La Prin-
cipessa Colonna.' She sat down
opposite where l was painting, and she
and Lady Ogle had good deal of con-
versation. Although L knew Italian
paid little attention to what they were
saying, till the princess, getting excited,
used the words 'infame and bestia,
and | observed Lady Ogle look surprised,
and ask her friend to tell her all about it.
Il was present. said the princess, and
saw it ALL and then she proceeded to
rela'e the following, which l translate
as nearly as l can in her own words:
90 You must know that when the
king ferdinand H., "Bomba " mar
ried the Sandman princess at Turin, he
stayed for a day or two in Rome on his
return to Naples, and his holiness
Gregory XVI.) was graciously pleased
to pay his majesty visit of congratula-
ton. On the occasion very select
party was got together at the Neapolitan
ambassadors, consisting of cardinals,
monsignori, and some of the old noble
families. The pope was very gracious
to the new queen. He had heard of her
musical accomplishments, and especially
of her great interest in church music
and as she said she was devoted to Mar
cello, his holiness asked if she would
have the kindness igentilezzO to sing
his favorite, No. % of the psalms.
The queen replied that to do so would
be great honor. In the meantime the
king, her husband, was sitting by sulky,
silent and gloomy, with his elbow resting
on the piano. The queen turned to him
and said playfully that he must turn the
leaves for her. For answer his majesty
of the Two Sicilies rose and kicked the
stool from below the queen, who fell
heavily on the marble floor. l need not

An Ideal blind Man.

d. Conway writes to the Cincinnati
Commercial Gazette from London: II is
probable that Professor Fawcett will livein
history as the ideal blind man. The ex-
preston of blindness is all over him, and
in every smallest movement, contrasting
at every moment with the tokens of his
triumph over it. His habitual loud voice
in conversation, that of one who cannot
measure the distance of those to whom
he is speaking his unaltered look as one
approaches, until his hand is touched or
he is spoken to, and the suddenness of
his smile then; his intent air, rs of one
concentrating all other means of percep-
ton to make up for the absence of sight;
and, more than all these small con-
ventionalities, or tricks of manner which
people unconsciously copy from one
another; these have more and more
become the visible characteristics of
Professor Fawcett as his real and intellec-
tual mastery has increased. So that heis as
unique among the blind in actual powers as
he is outwardly among the seeing. He has
few equals in fy-fshing, is a capital
skater. and knows all the flowers and
vegetables in his garden as well as his
gardener, in all their stages of growth.
Not long ago he was walking with Sir
Joseph Hooker in Kew gardens, and
talked about the trees and ponds and
paths with such appreciation, expressing
the wish that the public might enjoy
them oftener, that Sir Joseph forgot that
he was talking to blind man, and told
him that he Fawcett was welcome to
enter the gardens at any time of the
night or day. His wife has been such
eyes to him that he constantly speaks of
having "seen in the papers" this and
that. He goes home from parliament,
across many streets and turnings, and if
the cabman drives q yard beyond the
| door he is at once checked. He rarely
! fails to name the person who speaks to
him, however long the time since their
meeting.
remember as very impressive oc-
casion, one on which the pupils of the
College for the Blind were gathered at his
mansion by the Duke of Devonshire,
where they and their friends were ad-
dressed by Professor Fawcett These
afflicted youths of ali ages and both sexes
sat before the tall intellectual man, who
seemed to be their natural representative.
His address was simple, cheerful and
in every way felicitous. He said that he
thought blind people received an un-
necessary amount of coincidence en- their
loss. While it was right that they
should be speedily aided, the sympathy
with them need not be sorrowful. They
missed the dismal and ugly sights of the
world, and their powerfully stimulated
lamentations saw the world chiefly in its
beauty, if they were in health and COM
fort. They constantly heard descrip,
tions of things, and these, especially il
they had once enjoyed sight, became tc
the blind so real that they were apt tc
take their place in memory as things
actually seen.

and $50, 900 out of the star route trial,
and he is worth a nice little fortune
