nalE.Breed Cattle.

The Drusrrs Journal says that the war.
den of the Manitoba peni,entiarv, at Sto.
ney, Montana, near Winncpcg, has Il fine
herd of by brid cattle, CROSSED between the
male buffalo am, the domestic COW. They
arr very tame, taking no more notice of
human beings than the domestic animals.
They are very hardy, and seem prc.emi-
nently adapted to ranging our plains. They
readily mate and nature seems to provide
their offspring with Il constitution adapted
to all climatic changes of the Northwest
They ARE not housed during the winter
find their food under the snow and thrive
where our cattle would starve. The beef
is excellent, and yarn has been spun from
their hair. They do not show a disposition
to stray away, and altoscth it would seem
as il it nigh, be to the interest Of scientists
to study this question Of infusion Of the
buffalo blood into our herds.
The incandcsccnt electric light is now
used by French astronomer in connec.
ton with the equatorial and meridian cir.
cit: instruments, as it had been before ap'
piled to microscopy. The lamps are abou,
as large as a nut, and tho wires of the cir
Gle instruments and the vcrniers OF the lu
ncttes are read by the light Of two lamps
lighted by the same current, and regulated
BY switcl, controlled by the observer.

Effects Of Temperature.

The effects of temperature on man do
not depend so much on the mean for the
lay, month, or year rs Oh the extremes
as when the days are hot and the nights
comparatively cool the energy Of the sys-
tenn becomes partially restored, so that a
residence near the sea, or in the vicinity Of
high mountains, in hot climates Is. other
things being equal, less enervating than in
the plains, as the night air is generally
cooler. It is generally believed that hot
climates are necessarily iniuSiouS. +. Ezra:
This, however, to certain extent, is 4 mis-.
take, As the recent medical statistical re.
turns Of the English army in India show
that in the new barracks, with more care.

the sickness aud death rates are much re.
sluced. Planters and others, who ride about
good deal, as rule keep in fairly good
health. The children OF Europeans certain.
~ degenerate, and after two or three gcner-
ations die out, unless they intermarry with
natives and make frequent visits to colder
climates. This fact shows that hot eli.
mates, probably by interfering with the
due performance of the various processes
concerned in the formation and destruc-
lion OF the bodily tissues, eventually sap

caused by bad habits rs regards food, OK

B1StOH Correspondence,
The young fellow who stands It the
rail and receives your card when you
present yourself at Gen. Buffers Cffise,
No. l6 Pemberton square, is the very
Ssme one who, q few years ago, pre-
sented himself before the great lawyer,
dressed faultlessIy and adorned with
q highly colored necktie and much gew-
gaw.
"Well, sir" said Butler, looking the
youth over, what are you here fOr%'
~ came to study law, sir" was the
III should say, young man." was the
CHEEKY remark, "that the first thing
you'd better do is to roll over IN some
Darn yardw
Wouldn't it answer quite as well,
General" was the psralyzing answer,
elf remained in your Office awhile?"
Oh, curling satire! Didn't that poor
devil have to work? But he's got on
swimmingly, and as soon as you enter
and present your card he will say:
"There are q dozen people ahead OF
of YOU, sir; will you walt?"
OfcOurse YOU won't. he knows II.
You don't like Micawber. You re
tie, and conclude to try and get an in
tervieW next day.
As YOU enter the outer office you see
auite as many "waiters" Is there were
Yesterday, You are about to retire in
Gisl ust, when you notice fellow enter,
amble I'D to to the rail and present
card carefully rolled in what would
psss at almost any national bank Tor 3
check.
UPIease hand the general my card
and say would like TO see him."
This remark, together with the pecu'
Ijsr winding sheet of the card, sends
yhe aforesaid young man into the pri
vate office. In q moment he reappears.
"The general will see you, Mr.. -"
And in he goes.
"Young msn," you venture to in
oujre, show is it that gentleman secures
an audience before the rest OF Us, VINO
have waited two days"
"Ohw blurts out the embryo barrls-
ter. Uyou see he lives out Of town. Got
TO get a train. Important case, too"
You 90 away believing ia the young
mans veracity but, alas, yOpchange
your mind, when you see the same mao,
three hours later, dining with grass
widow, and with sufficient time to
mend The face of another check, quite
~ large, but which Il not put to half so
good a use, for it Is in worse company
