Balaam's ASS.

A French sGr01at asserts that the
time may come when donkeys and
other inferior animals may talk with
out any miraculous power being exer-
cised to make them do 50. This can
be done, he says, by careful breeding,
selection, and an education continued
through several generations. Breeding
heretofore has been directed toward
certain physical characteristics, such as
fleetness in horse, milk in the COW and
a fine and juicy meat in the cattle.
Breeders find it possible to create q
certain physical type of pigeon, COW, or
sheep-that is, they can sketch out on
paper what they want and then realize
it by selections among the herd. Ac-
cording to this French scientist, ami
mails even now communicate by sound.
Certain birds, such as the parrot and
the mocking bird, can be taught to
speak, because the structure of throat
and mouth resembles those of the
human being A good many curious
speculations have been INDUCED in
respecting the man of the future, but
what if the ass, the COW and the sheep
of the future should be gifted with ar
ticulate speech, and what seemed an
incredible Biblical legend become an
everyday fact?-DemorcSt's MontblV.

Miss or Mrs.

A Maine woman complains through
the Boston papers of the arbitrary rule
of society which prefixes the title
Miss or Mrs" before each wom-
ans name, thereby indicating to all the
world whether she is or is not married.
The writer believes that this matrimo-
NAL label is unnecessary as well as fire.
ouentlv source of annoyance to the
bearer of it, and calls for the invention
of a title which, like "Mr." applied to
all men alike, can be used to designate
any woman without regard to her con-
dition of matrimonial servitude or free
dom. 1t is to be feared that this wom-
an will not have the hearty support and
sympathy of her sex in this demand.
The majority, if interviewed on the
subject, would probably agree with the
sentiments of certain sprightly young
lady Just home from watering place.
Said this giddy pleasure-seeker, discon-
solately: "There were so very few gen
tlemen there-not half, no, not one
tenth enough to go around. And OF
those who were there half turned out
10 be old married men-mean, deceitful
things-iust as the girls were getting
interested in them. There ought to be

his wife is obliged to do by wearing
Mrs. before her name.

Thus calm the water spoke,
"Who makes the traveller

The wind began at last,
I With all his might again,
And blew his fiercest blast
Ger every hill and plain.
Then the travellers cloak was pressed
Closer and closer round,
And cross his shivering breast
Tighter and tighter bound.
Then the sun came out so bright
And danced upon the streams,
Till the traveller felt the might
OF his warm and welcome beams.
And when his smile at last
Shone bright and brighter round,
The traveller gladly cast
His cloak upon the ground. a.
Then all the brooks went singing, e

And over all creation,

The Northern Pacific farmer. [volume] (Wadena, Minn.) 1878-1885, 1883-05-31

The numerous assertions from the
United States army during the past year
are attributed by the inspector general,
to the fact that the government had
broken faith in requiring an amount of
day labor far in advance of the compen-
sation, and in further demanding the
full performance Of all military duties,
including drills, target practice, etc.
Col. Davis stated that he recently in
spected the military prison at Leaven-
worth and secured answers from 100 of
the desarters there confined as to the
cause of desertion. Of these, seventy
five gave too much work as the cause;
some said they expected to do ordinary
post police duty, but not to build roads,
dig bitches, lay bridges, cut wood and
hay or herd animals, and have from
three to four hours per day of drill and
target practice, too. They averred that
they would not have had objected to the
work if the drills were omitted, nor to
the latter if the labor were not so inces-
SAINT; but as it was. they were given
more hours of arduous duty than fell to
the lot of the hardest-worked laborer in
civil life. Young and inexperienced
persons, who have been attracted to en-
listment by the glamor of military life,
experience sickening revulsion of feel
ing when they are used as day laborers.
Instead of the "pomp and circumstance"
fine equipments. uniforms, &C., they
find themselves very much 10 wer in the
scale than they expected to be under
circumstances, in or out of the army.
Hence many take the fret opportunity
to escape the drudgery imposed upon

Some Of the monarchs of the
Old World are alarmed by the
flight Of their subjects to the United
States, aud if each immigrant we receive
is worth $1,000, as estimated emigra-
ton does inflict a loss of nearly $780,
100000 year upon Europe. But the
annual exodus of &c, 900 to 5000 wealthy
citizens for summer abroad is no in
considerable compensation to Europe
for her loss. It is probable that these
tourists expend an average of much
more than 81, 900 each on the other side
of the Atlantic, and SlOO,OOO,0OO is notan
unreasonable estimate Of the aggregate
amount they leave in the Old World.
That is. the exodus Of pleasure seekers
from the United States gives Europe
one-ffth ofwhat she losses annually by
emigration.
