Cat Talk.
From the London News.l

The cat is beast of very ancient lineage
and high degree. Perhaps it was from NJ
bia that the Egyptians got the cat, which
they at once began to worship as the God
dess Pasht. The etymology of the names for
the cat throw little or no light on its original
home. A recent American writer mentions
some children who invented tcat lam
guage," in which eats could be intelligently
addressed. Oddly enough, a French philos-
opher, Dupont de Lemours, had anticipated
this childish idea, and made considerable
researches into the language which cats talk
among themselves. He decided that cats,
which have more extensive view of the
world from the tree-tops and house-tops
than dogs enjoy, have also more fully de-
veloped language than their natural enc
mics.
"The cat has a speech in which all the
vowels of the dog are found, with six conso-
nants into the bargain, these being m, n, D,
b, and f. Hence the cat has far greater
number of words than the dog; hence, too,
its superior intelligence and cunning"
The Able Gallant, a famous wit, was also
fond of studying cats. He maintained that
"the language of the tom is quite different
from that of the tabby, as it ought to be.''
In LQlS case CdtS resemble several savage
races (such as the Carribs, and people
mentioned by Herodotus), in that the males
and females of the race speak 20 different
tongues. The able detected "more than 20
infections in the language of cats" He
was certain that Seats always use the same
sound to express the same thing" These
philosophers might well have wondered, like
Montaigne, what their cat was thinking of
their diversions. Chateaubriand, great
friend of cats, had rather a good story of a
ghost of a cat, accompanied by ghost of
wooden leg, which used to walk up and
down-st airs together in an ancient house.
And if cats have language why should they
not leave ghosts behind them?
Among the illustrious friends of cats have
been Victor Hugo, Theophile Gautier, Pros
per Merimee, Chateaubriand, Cardinal VOL
sew, Richelieu and Mahomet. The eat of
Mahomet was named Muezza, and for this
worthy animal he showed the highest con-
sderation. One day the cat fell asleep on
the wide sleeve of the prophets coat Ma.
homet had a business engagement, but he
could not dream of disturbing Muezza. At
last, as the matter became pressing. this
good-natured prophet cut the sleeves of his
coat, went about his business. and left
Muezza to repose Chateaubriand thought,
and Justly that the independence of the cat
was one of its most remarkable features.
There is always Ole who loves and one who
let's himself be loved in every affair of the
heart, and the cat invariably oceupies the
later position. And why not? tfMan has
sought the society of the cat, it is not the

The frozen air is drifting round
In eddies dashed with binding spray.
Upon so wild 2 winter scene
But thou and have CHANGED to meet.
What words were fit to pass between
ss. A traveller rough and one so sWeet9
Poor dying songster, full of woes,
With stiffening pinions loosely turled,
That graspest with thy thorny toes
The wire that runs around the Worldl
Thou knowest not the grief and mirth
With which the iron thread is traught,
AS one may grasp, but miss the worth
OF some far-reaching line of thought.
Thou scannest not our human things,
Thine eyelids close upon tho world,
The snow sits downward through thy wings,
tf And upward to thy heart is whlried.
Beneath its inches cold and white
Thy mate lies frozen near the hedge,
And nevermore in tuneful flight
Shall cross the mornings crimson's edge.
Recallest how, one dewy dawn,
Ere vet the sun hath kissed thy THROAT,
The music from thy heart had gone
4 That won her shy, responsive ncteY
How fond We whispered, breast to breast,
; That day within the covert green,
Or sought the brook with moses drest,
Your hot and dusty wings to preen.
Then. in the hush of coming night,
Thou ledst her to the fragrant bed
OF apple blossoms, pink and white
With canopy of green o'erhead.
All summer long how true thy zest
TO note her fight DER many rood,
To build with her the secret nest,
To mourn with her the stolen brood.
now, thou art dying; dead is thine
n In some bright cline are all thy kin.
Let thy true life pass into mine,
And make it what 1t hath not been.
BeCueath to me thy lovers hearts
And touch my spirit with thy fate,
That from one may never part, 1.Lo >
Nor even in death be separate.

Mr.. Robert 9. Adams, who published a 'His-
tory Of England in Rhyme" year or two ago
now appears as the author of "History of the
United States in Rhyme" 1t is small book
about 20 pages in large type, being in fact little
else than catalogue of the chief events in the
history of this country, set down in doggerel
verse, sueh az some minds fad useful to assist
the memory, and we presume it will serve a
good purpose if memorized, to fix the dates and
sequence of the principal facts. The early dis
coveries and settlements down to 1907 are dis
posed of in II pages, then the circumstances of
the permanent settlement of each colony are
separately set forth. The story of the revolu-
tionary war is told in about 800 lines, and $50
the rebellion. Dates are given in the margin
and many are woven into the text.
