A travelled aesthetic writes to the Pail Mall
Gazette as follows: "Juvenal describes a

Rome-that is, place where pupils were
instructed, by means Of wooden models, in
the all important art Of cutting up joints
and fowls elegantly. would venture to
suggest that, as without vanity we may
call ourselves the only people in the world
who know how to eat, we should set up
classes in Berlin, and elsewhere for the in
itiation of our continental neighbors in
the art OF eating. In good German socie-
ty-that is among barons and harnesses,
grafs and grains, we find the knife pop
ped into the mouth as OF old, and certain
unmentionable instrument freely used at
the dinner table even-horror of horrors!
by adorable maidens with blue eyes
and golden hair!-while from the noise
made over the soup, we might suppose that
the rhythmic chorus thereby produced form
ed the chief enjoyment Of this part of the
meal. Alas! our French neighbors, so en-
dowed with taste in other matters, are not
much ahead of the Teuton in this most i'm
portant accomplishment. We are up
braided by both in the neglect of dinner
napkins; but the fact is, English fingers
are as clean at the end of a repast as at the
beginning. Over the water, what with the
taking up of bones in the fingers, hopping
up gravy with pieces of bread, and other
propensities, things are no better than if
knives and forks had never been invented
worse, indeed! Heavenl can I ever for
get spectacle recently witnessed, eggs in
the shell, boiled soft, demolished by papa,
mamma, and children with knife and fork.
1 turned my head the other way; but
after the disappearance of the eggs no one
seemed the worse. Again-how these ter
rible things print themselves upon my
memory! what were my feelings the other
day, at charming morning breakfast
party in an elegant country house, to see
graceful young lady on sitting down to
table quietly place before her box of di-
gestlve pills! Two we're taken in a spoon,
and the pill box remained on the table till
after the repast. Now just as French pes
pie have taught US how to cook dinners,
L propose that English professors should
open classes in order to teach how dinners
should be eaten. The delicate matter of
enjoying and making the most of a patr-
idge or quail, for instance, without once
touching it with the fingers, would occupy
at least one entire lesson; to swallow soup
so as not to be heard, another; and so on,
complete course lasting about half year.

Whenever train passed on the opposite
track ne crouched down in the corner of
the seat terror stricken. After the train
passed he would put mis- hand TO his ear and
listen with a look of animal cunning steal
ing out Of his restless eyes, like a panther
about to pounce on its prey. Every time
the engineer blew his whistle the wild man
would grab the back of the seat with both
hands and hold on until the whistle ceased
blowing. Boyd had little tin music-box
which he manipulated with a crank. The
one tune of Empty is the Cradle" was
ground again and again to the great salts
faction of the ex-hermit, who sat and look
ed at 1t silently, but would not touch it.
WhenCondUctor Harry Smith took out his
glistening nickle-plated punch to cancel
the tickets the wild man watched the punch
intently until he heard it snap. Then he
got down in the corner of the seat fairly
shlverlng with fear, and set up low howl
surprising, evidently, that Conductor
Smith was about to wing him. Boyd and
Harvey SAID that there was a story to the
effect that the wild man had originally
come from North Carolina, and that du-
ing the war he had been sharp shooter
on Bald mountain. and that shortly after
the war he had maddened a whole family
Of settlers in the mountain and fed. Both
Boyd and Harvey appear like shrewd fell
lows, and expect to make a fortune out of
their prize. Their great anxiety and fear
is that the authorities Will interfere with
them and claim that the man is simply
lunatic, and place him in some insti-
tuition. They had the snake skins in a box
IN the baggage car, together with some
other curiosities found in the cave. Boyd
said that the wild man will not touch any,
thing but fruit and meat, which he eats
ravenously, and much the same as wild
beast. Cigar smoke bothered him a great
deal, and he kept driving it away from him
with his clawy hands. When the train ar
rived in Jersey City the men took car
rage and said they were going to take the
New Haven night boat from the foot of
Peck slip, and avoid daylight crowd IN
New York. In case they can not make sat-
isfactory term they intend exhibiting their
prize themselves as soon as they can ex-
tensively advertise him, beginning in New
Yorkcity some time i'll May. In the mean
time they are going to keep him in some
secluded place on Long island.

4 Curious Fjr-Tree.
Popular Science.

Switzerland has its old chestnut trees On
the banks of Lake Leman, and the ancient
linden of Fribourg, the history of which is
said to go back to the time of the royal
conflicts with Charles the Bold. NJ. Louis
Pire, president of the Royal Botanical
society of Alliaz, Canton of Vaud, speaks
of a tree which he believes to be older
than the linden of Fribourg, and con-
siders entitled to be regarded as the oldest
and most remarkable tree in the canton, if
not in the whole confederation. It is grow
ing near the baths of Alliaz, at b eight of
about 1900 feet, above the hotel, nd 1890
feet above the sea, surrounded by forest
of frs, which it overtops by more than
thirty feet. The trunk of this tree is ten
meters, or little more than thirty feet in
circumference at the base. At about a
yard from the ground it puts out, on the
south side, seven shoots, which have grown
into trunks as strong and vigorous as those
of the other trees in the forest. Bent and
gnarled at the bottom, these side trunks
soon straighten themselves up and rise
perpendicularly and parallel to the main
stem. This feature is not, perhaps, wholly
unparalleled, but another most curious
fact is that the two largest of the side
trunks are connected with the principal
stem by sub-duadrangular braces resemb-
ling girders. Thes beams have probably
been formed by an astomosln0 of branches,
which common enough mong nF'o-
sperms, is extremely rare an eng confer ,
but it has been impossible to oe~, ain the
manner in which the ingrowing u ne
branch into the other has been effecteu.
The adoption by which limb, originally
destined to grow free and bear foliage, has
been converted into living stick of tim
Der. is a strange one, and affords a new
illustration of the power of nature to fit
itself to circumstances. The space be-
tween the rough flooring formed by the
growing together of the offsho Dts, at their
point of departure, and the girder-limbs
is large enough to admit of building a
