French Views of Tennyson.

M. Jules Clareti, commenting in the
Temps on the Tennyson peerage, says:
"a nobility recruited, like the English,
from men of great ability and reputa-
ton, has considerable chances of dura-
ton; and here is an aristocracy which
almost reads lesson to our democracy.
The English feel that man like Ten
nyson deserves q seal among the po-
tentates of his country, and simply be-
cause he is great Enelishman. Poll
tics have nothing to do with the mat
ter. An inspired man energies from
the multitude. He is hailed, and being
read, reread, and paid at guinea a
line, is made peer. should not ask
so much from Frenchmen, but merely
little more attention and respect for
prominent men of genius. Alas! we
are Tar from following the good exam
pie set across the channel. If with us
poet were made senator simply be-
cause he was a poet, all the small pa
pers would ask whether our senate was
in its dotage. A versitier peer! a
composer of sonnetS in the senate! the
wits would roar with laughter" :"

The Use of Salt.

We have received from CORES
pondent letter making some inquiries
into the use of salt, and we are given
to understand that among other follies
of the day some indiscreet persons are
objecting to tho use of salt, and pro-
pose to do without it Nothing could be
more absurd. Common salt is the most
widely distributed substance in the
body; it exists in every fluid and in ev-
cry solid; and not only is everywhere
present, but in almost every part it
constitutes the largest portion of the
ash when any tissue is burnt In par
ticular it is a constant constituent of
the blood, and it maintains in it q pro-
portion that is almost wholly independ-
ent of the quantity that is consumed
with the food. The blood will take up
SO much and no more, however much
we may take with our food; and, on
the other hand, if none be given, the
blood parts with its natural quantity
slowly and unwillingly. Under ordi-
nary circumstances healthy man loses
daily about twelve grains by one chan
mel or the other, and, if he is to main
tain his health, that quantity is to be
introduced. Common salt is of i'm
mense Importance in the processes min
istering to the nutrition of the body,
for not only is it the chief salt in the
gastric juice, and essential for the
formation of bile, and may hence be
reasonably regarded as of high value
in digestion, but it is an important
agent in promoting the processes OF
diffusion, and therefore of absorption.
Direct experiment has shown that il
promotes the decomposition of the al
bumen in the body, acting probably by
increasing the activity of transmission
of fluids from cell to cell. Nothing
can demonstrate its value better than
the fact that if albumen without salt is
introduced into the intestines of an an
imal, no portion of it is absorbed, while
it all quickly disappears if salt be add.
ed. Ii any further evidence were re-
quired it could be found in the power.
full instinct which impels animals to OBJ
tain salt. Buffaloes will travel for miles
to reach ''salt lick'; and the value oi
salt in improving the nutrition and the
aspect of horses and cattle is well
known to every farmer.
The conclusion, therefore, is obvi
Gus that salt, being wholesome, and,
indeed, necessary, should be taken ir
moderate quantities, and that absten
ton from it is likely TO be injurious. =

Women are the laughing sex. No
tice them in conversation, either with
their own or the other sex. Their faces
are invariably wreathed with smiles,
and they laugh incessantly. Is It a
habit, or is it the result ofa more high
ly organized nervous system-what the
superior scientist contemptuously calls
"hysterical organization"-or is 1t the
woman's Unborn desire to please, find
ing expression by seeming interested
md amused, or is it that woman real
ly is more easily amused than a man?
Perhaps it isa combination of all four.
At any rate it forms as distinctive a
line between the sexes as any OF the
common peculiarities which are sup
posed to characterize one sex or the
other.

What John ChinaInan Eats.

1t will probably astonish many to

more he finds by jimminy out, and in
stead of the Chinaman feasting on rat
pie as he is popularity supposed to do.
he has just three times as much chicken
pie on his bill of fare as q white man,
and nine times us much stewcd duck.
The Chinaman is peculiar. Geese or
turkeys he does not care for. and wild
ducks or any other game which has
been shot, are an abomination In his

fowls are offered him. His taste In fish
