Russian Courage.

Russians than among any other people

irresponsible readiness of q dog to risk
life and liberty upon prOvocation. Not
more volunteers lush out, when n
desperate enterprise is mootcd, than
from our own ranks; moro than all is a
mathematical absurdity. But the
EnSIishman stakes his life in another. a
GrandcI spirit. He feels, and rcckons
with the peril Before meeting it, so f!.r
as | have seen examples, he is quiet.

Sham Butter and Cheese.

Professor Sheldon, in the Iona Home.
stead, says: Can anyone tell what dairy.
ing is drifting to? We hear of ali sorts
OF queer monstrOsities, from lard-chepae
to cotton butter No man knows what
he eats If he buys it. Stimulation is the
spirit OF tho age, and no end of scienca
and skill is employed to deceive.
clever imitation is what men prefer to
produce, and the public are led to de-
vour. The simplicity of genuinoness is
out of the running as things go in tho
world. Tho public must eat what is
given them, asking no questions.
The oleomargarine men have done tor.
rible lot of mischief, and ollal is the god
whom they delight to honor and exalt.
At all points they aim to circumvcnt the
dalrymcn and swindlo the public.
Tho taste of tho people is degraded
by the sham butter and cheese which
seems to be real. Mems stomachs now
adays are sepulchrcs for strange abomi-
nations which they iSnorantly rather
than innocently swallow. This sort of
thing is leading them they know not
whittier, and posterity will pay tho
piper. 1t is no longer that which
cometh out of, but that which goeth
into the mouth that dctilcs. Meats and
drinks of many kinds arc not what they
pretend to be, and there is q good deal
Of "tricks that are dark" in what passes
for dairy goods.
Whose fault is this Well, in a great
part tho dairyman's, for they have
spoiled good milk. They have given an
opening for the shoddy men of the dairy,
who are growing rich out of of1al Tho
law cOmplacently lets men sell what
they like, ctEd the sham is, often enough,
better than the real one. Shoddy sells
well enough TO be carefully made, and
so the makers of counterfeit butter and
cheese do flourish. Dairymcn who make
inferior butter and cheese, no matter
how real tho goods may be, arc out of
the running entirely. Ii only the palate
Of the public is suited, it matters not if
| the article be real or pretended, so care
| less dairymcn can hardly "male ends
meet and tie" But one thing is clear
the makers of really first class cheese
and butter can hold their own, and will
hoId their own against the nefarious
stun that IS made IL any and every coun-
try. A wcCdlnG-out process is going on,
and goods which are mere SimulatOnS
Will take the place SO long occupied by
the products Of milk that was spoiled
If, then, the oleomargarino business, the
melted tallow and other less crcditahlc
things, shall result in bringing about a
thorough reform in dairy methods, we
shall have reason after all to be grateful
to men for whom few of lis entertain
feelings that approach TO respect or
affection. But let the public have fair
protection, let them know what ihcv
buy; then the dairymcn will wifi
they want to; and if they don't the fault
| is their OWN.

upon going" remarked to him when
we were alone
"Sheis, sir. She has had her mind made
up to it this long time, and nothing but
unwillingness to leave the old man kept
her here until now"
"Did her father know of her regard
for Patsy ?" inquired.
He knew it well, replied her uncle;
"and good cause he had too, as it was
that broke him down in the end, though
Katy did her best to satisfy him. He
was always bemoaning the fancy she
took for that idlo spalpcen, rs he used
to call Patsy, and wanting her to marry
somo of tho quiet dacent boys i'll the
ncighborhood."
81 am glad ho gave his daughter his
blessing before he died. And so now
she is off to America to seek Patsy
McDermot, that has taken so strong a
hold upon her, though he hardly knew
it himself"
"Just that, sir" replied the uncle.
81 did my best with her, but it was ali
to no use. L oven told her Mt the wake
that may be her father wouldn't STAY
,Nsy i'll his grave if she left the old coun-
try. But it was all no use-she would
go. She said she had his blessin', and
he was suro to lie 'asy enough. She bid
mo not sell the little place till she'd
write herself from America; as may be-
if she failed to kctch Patsy, she'd like to
come back and die here. SO [ hope
your honor will let the little farm rest
awhile in my name, and I'll pay the rent
regular, and be good tenant as ever her
father was before"
"Wcll, let it bo So" said I. "Thc
case is n singular one, and L would not
wish to put it out of her power to come
back and live and die here, if her mission
to America should turn out q failure"
"God bless you, sir, replied he; "ii
anything would keep the old man 'asy ii
would be that. J. don't think he'll even
walk when he hears that the little place
isn't sold to q stranger"
Catherine Farnan left Ireland soon
after the above conversation, and she
haSnevcr since returned. I heard that
she did "ketch" Patsy in New York.

Small Arms VS.. Cannon.

With the Improvement in small arms
for war it is Obvious that thcr" must be a
change in the construction and service of
field artillery, or this arm will lose its
Importance. Infantry rifles which can
pick off glmncr5 at half n mile, and
which soldiers can load as quickly while
prone ON the ground, where thcy can tip
them with moro precision, can soon matte
the gun untcnablc. IT, meanwhile. it is
firing solid shot, the contest is very un-
equal. Even if firing percussion shells
or canister shot, n skirmish line of sharp
shooters w0uld be too much for the Nr-
tillCry. 1t may be of service mOmcn-
tarily, at short range, against charging
line, but III such cases the fire is SO de
structiVc to gunncrs and horses that the
guns are generally lost, unless the charge
wholly fails. The loading of q cannon
at the muHZlc makes the utmost exposure
Of the gunnCrS. The long range and
quick loading of the present small arms
have made the contest very unequal to
artillery. Unless corresponding ad-
vance can be m0do III that. n battle will
be general giving away of guns. There
Is no need of such exposure of gunncrs.
In sewing brccch-loading cannon the
cXpO..T of men is generally reduced,
and their service is in 50 contracted
space that they could easily be protected
from the fire of small arms by n steel
shield. But in our nrmywo have not vet
got SO far as brcGch loading rilIcd guns,

How deft her fingers are, how busy!
Ah! happy man within whose home

And have no place beneath this dome.

How neat her glove is, and how trinity

All vain and poor is earthly pleasure;
No wonder that our sad hearts ycarn
To some moro high and lasting treasure
