The movement for establishing slaugh-
ter houses along the Northern Pacific
road, and shipping beef to market dress
ed instead of on hoof, is liable to result
in marked change in the cattle busi-
ness. The promoters of the movement
figure out difference in favor Of the
shipper of about $5.36 on each 1000
pounds of live weight, and, while this is
perhaps somewhat exaggerated, there is
no doubt that the system would prove,
on the whole, more profitable to the
shipper than the old way, always pro-
vided the railroads do not raise the
rates on dressed beef enough to equalize
the thing.

THE POPULATION OF PARIS.

An analysis of the population of Paris
just published gives very singular statistics
as to the inhabitants of the gayest city in
Europe. 1t seems, also, for its size, to be
the most industrious. The proportion in
which the working classes exceed those
who live on their own incomes is the more
remarkable as Paris ia the recognized cen.
ter of expenditure and extravaganza for all
France. There are no cities that hold to
the capital the same relative position that
Liverpool, Manchester and Birmingham
occupy relatively to London. More than
half a million of Parisians are employed in
commerce, trade and banking operations,
while of the artisan class there are consid-
e-ably more than million and quarter
The liberal professions seem to occupy but
small proportion of the population. All
combined do not amount to 200, 600, and
in the subdivisions the prominence is
quite different to what it would be
with US. The great majority are in the
public service, which employs more than
medicine, law and divinity all combined.
But, after the public service, it is art which
gives employment and livelihood 20 the
greatest number of Parisians. Forty.two
thousand ge. their income from this branch
of industry. The doctors come after, but
a long way after. Medicine in it's branches
supports 5000, the branches, OF course,
including chemists and all compoundeIs
and vendors of medicine. Then comes the
law, with its 10000 votaries, from Judge
to bailiff. Literature figures very low on
the list, for, grouped with science and
journalism, it gives employment to only
IL OO0 peonle while all the clergy Of all the
persuasions amount to but half that num-
Der. On the whole, Paris would seem to be
more industrious, more artistic, less lit
erary and less religious than the ordinary
visitor would suppose. Il Pail Mall Gazette.

THE JAcKAL IN ANTIQUITY.

Herr o. Keller, in a paper on "The
Jackal in Antiquity" says the editor of
the Popular Science Monthly, urges that
the Western nations, who had foxes but no
iackals, borrowed the traits ascribed to
iackals, in Oriental fables, with the fables,
and transferred them to their foxes. Thus
the Grecian foxes were endowed with the
attributes of two animals, and the most
curious fox. fables of K,op are in their
origin Indian jackal-fables. Some of
Esop's fables represent the fox as the fol-
lower and servant of the lion, which he is
not known to be in any sense. The jackal,
however, is in the habit of following the
lion at respectable distance, and lives on
what he can pick up from the deserted re-
pasts of the king of the beasts. This trait
was observed by the ancient Indians, and
it was a natural result of the observation
that their vivid imaginatiOns, discovering
royal prerogatives in the lion, should en-
dow his follower with the qualities of a
minister and counselor, and make him to
assist his majesty by using in his behalf
the qualities of slyness and cunning in
which the royal beast was deficient. The
Greeks substituted foxes for jackals be-
cause they knew nothing about them, and
their foxes came nearer than any other an
imal to answering the descriptions of them.
The transfer was made easier by the grad
usl development of the fables from simple
nature-stories into moral lessons, in the
course of which absolute truth to nature
grew less essential, and the representation
of abstract qualities under purely conven-
tional masks become more prominent. The
homogeneous association of the Greeks of
the supposed evil influences of Sirius with
the harmless dog are susceptible of a SINH
lar explanation. The Chinese, however,
who also attributed evil qualities to the
dog-star, called it the jacksl.star, and ap.
propriately for as the heat and drought of
which it is the forerunner are destructive
to the crops, so likewise are the jackals,
which make their home in the fields, and
are constantly running through them in
gangs, destroying myriads of plants, in
search of their food. To the Egyptians,
Sirius was also the jsckal-star, but fore.
BODIED good, for it appeared just before the
time of the inandation. The Mesopota.
mians also recognized In it forerunner Of
beneficent foundations, and gave it the
name of the deg, an animal which they
held in high esteem, The Greeks borrowed
the Mesopotsmian name, and kept the Chi
nese idea, which harmonized we'll with the
character of their own dog days. The
origin of the dog-star has been associated
by some other writers with the idea that
Sirius, the chief Of the stars, was the shep-
herd dog to the host of the heavenly sheep,
represented by the other stars.
