Owls.

Owls were never an epicurean feast.
but Southey once had an owl roasted
for dinner for himself and Mr.. and
Mrs. Wordsworth; give the sequel in
his own words:
I'VE agreed there could be no pre-
text for making owls game and killing
them as delicacies; but ii ever you eat
one, by all means try it boiled, with
onion sauce"
An omclet made of owls eggs is said
to be cure for drunkenness.
At one time the workmen on the
Washington Monument were a good
deal annoyed to find that plumb line
that +, ached from the top to the bottom
of the shaft was frequently meddled
with. At lat it was found that an owl
had taken up its abode in part of the
shaft that afforded a shelter, and in
passing in and out it had disturbed the
line.
An owl was once beguiled into a
Georgia conference meeting, intent Oh
securing rat that had run into the
room to escape from so persistent an
enemy. La ed by the light he sailed
around a few times and alighted
upon the bald head of an old
man directly in front OF the
speaker. 1t is hardly necessary to say
what was the next move but the pres.
ence of the owl may have called to the
preachers mind the presence of Isaiah,
who, when he foretold the desolat on Of
Babylon, declared that the house should
be full of doe ul creatures, and that
owls should dwell there.
An owl ono, seriously disturbed the
mourners at funeral at Beechwood,
Ontario With tender care they had
placed the remains in tomb, and were
turning away sorrowing, when they
heard moan that seemed to come
from the coffin. Hurriedly they broke
the casket open, only to find all quiet
within, and then it was disco cred that
the noise they had heard came from owls
at the far end OF the vault
Dodsiey thought it worth his while
to write an ode on the death of an owl,
and Broomield made the bird the sub.
ject of his muse. Many persons be.
lieve that an owl will keep his eyes Sc
intently fixed on person walking
around him as to wr ng his own neck
oil, and IL was not until some quick.
eyed observer discovered tAat when the
owl had turned his head half round, he
whisked it back through the whole
circle with the rapidity of lightning,
and feed again the person who was
experimenting on him. - ProUidsnct

Wealth Of the Ocean.

Sailing in the John Williams north
east OF Lord Howe's Island, at dawn OF
December 10Th u.t.. the ocean swarmed
with small fish resembling sprats. Sea
birds lowered above, gorglng to their
hearts content. hortly afterward
shoals of bonito (Thynnus pelamys)
came along in hot pursuit. With half
a dozen pearl oyster hooks, and no bait
whatever. in less than an hour we
caught one hundred and xteen
bonito, the greater part of which was
salted down. Throughout the day we
were slowly sailing through a count
less multitude OF bonito. After Cap
tain Turpie had desired the fishers to
cease their occupation (as our salt was
done), one or two turtively and cruelty
amused themselves by catching these
fine fish and throwing them back alive
into the ocean. We might easily have
caught couple of thousand before SUM-
set. throughout the following night
the sea was illuminated; for as the
bonlto rushed through the water near
the surface they became phosphores-
cent--a sight never TO be forgotten by
those who witnessed it. Toward day,
break, however, a strong breeze sprang
up, and we saw no more of those NOV
ing masses of fire. The bonito belongs
to The mackeral family. 1t is usually
thirty inches in length and twenty
inch round and OF a steel-blue color,
with four stripes along each side. The
flesh is OF dark color, and proved an
acceptable change OF diet TO vi on
