From the Leisure Hour.

ITCNt Cte Leisure fOUf.
Prof. Bouley, of Paris. gives the following
remarkable instance of memory in animals:
A watch dog belonging to the General Omni-
bus Company, named Jupiter, was always
spoken of as a "ferocious" animal Its in-
stincts and habits being exceptionally savage
ana sullen. Only one of the men in the yard
ever ventured within his reach. The dog one
Day got kick from an omnibus horse, which
broke Its front leg. The bandage which was
applied was too tight, and caused inhamma-
ton which threatened TO turn to gangrene.
AS u was suffering intense pain, it was taken
10 M. Natel, veterinary surgeon, and NJ
bOuley applied an anRsthetic OF ether before
IL underwent an operation by M. Vatel.
About month afterward NJ. BOuley had Oc-
cation to accompany NJ. Vatel to the omnibus
estaollshment at Montronge, Of which place
ne was the veterinary surgeon. The moment
Jupiter saw NJ. Bouley he mani
tested the most demOnstratIvo sigus of pleas
1re. All present were astOnished when NJ
BOuley patted his head, while the poor dog
showed unmistaksble signs of recognition
and sympathy. M. Bouley remarks that the
singular point In the affair was the very short
Time in which he had been en- rapport with
the dog, the application Of the ether being
erected in few moments. The intensity Of
the pain at the time, and the sudden relief.
must nave made the deepest impression on
the suffering animal, and we know that the
memory of such impressions is the most vivid.
That brief moment" says NJ Boulev.
"suhiced to dx in the brain OF the dog the i'm
preston of my personality, whether con-
Yeyed by sight or by scent; and the associa-
ton OF ideas reproduced, a month afterward.
the Keeling OF pleasure and of gratitude which
mad been experienced o. the relief of the
severe pain by the an8sthetic.

Paris Letter to the Chicdgo Tribune.
M. Renan, lin a congratulatory letter TO the
protector OF the Panama canal gives several
examples of the way in which NJ. de Lesseps
gained his wonderful ascendancy over said
Pacha, Niceroy of Egypt, at the time when
the concession for the Suez canal was granted
the French company. "Only strong charac-
ters know how To deal with barbarlans.V - con-
tinued NJ. Renan. ''Said had taken home
with HIM from France a service of Sevres
ware, and you had another for your own use
The service of the Viceroy was soon broken to
pieces through the carelessness OF dOmestics
while yours was still in good condition. The
situation was unfortunate. One day Won
noticed that the we'll trained camel that car
rled your dishes was replaced by an unruly
and almost wild one. You were careful not
to object. In a few moments your Sevres
ware was In pieces. The VicerOY burst into
laugh ana the canal project was safe"
Here is another anecdOte of this kind /:
Your astonishing skill as an equestrian won
Tor you the warm friendship of the descend
ants of Mehemet Ali, more clever in exercises
of this KIND than IN those of the mind On
Nov. 30. 1884, you and Said were in the midst
OF the desert. The Viceroy's tent was pitched
on the top of an eminence surrounded by a
stone wall. You had noticed that at a GER
tain point it was possible to jump the parapet
on horseback. You chose this path. You
might have broken your neck. But in the
ORIENT fOOlhardiness counts for as much as
wisdom. Your bOldness excited universal
admiration, and on that day the concession
was signed"

A Gallant General Undertakes to Be an

From the San Francisco Chronicls.
There is General OF Ocal fame who went
through very unhappy quarter of an hour
a week or two ago He had just returned
from the East There he made the acquaiu-
tance of a young gentleman who is engaged
to be married 10 a very charming Oaklapd
girl. The truth, that alwa is the accessory
Of separation Of lovers, burned in the young
mans breast, and he took the opportunity
" hen the General was leaving to load him
down with messages of love and a book for his
fiance. The gallant warrior undertook the
commission with all willingness, aud when he
had rested from his trip he started of one
Sunday NOR ming for Oakland with the book
under his arm. He sought out the address
given him, for the young girl was a stranger
TO him, and as he approached he saw ii lady
seated on the steps OF an Oakland villa. He
opened the gate and walked in with an i'm
posing martial air. The lady eyed him with
an uufavorable look.

A New York Rumnn.

All the ruffians are not in the Far West.
A good many of them are to be found in
New York and other Northern cities.
Last Sunday young man named Quinn
shot and killed an inonensive Chinaman
in the Bowery, New York city, and
wounded another inofiensive Chinaman so
severely that 1t is expected that he will
die. The Cinnamon were standing talk
ing together when Quinn approached
them, accompanied by some sailors, and
without a word of warning began to shoot
at them.
ANY punishment that the law can inflict
on such rufiian as Quinn is hardly Sc
we're enough. There is not much doubt
that he will pay the penalty of his crime
on the gallows, and the States attorney
ought TO see that punishment follows the
crime quickly.
The New York police Sergeant Crow
ley, who assaulted girl at a
ball few weeks ago was locked
in the penitentiary almost before
ne realized his guilt. The swift
ness and severity of his punishment will
have a wholesome effect in deterring others
from committing similar offenses. Let
justice be as swift in the Quinn case and
New York rufiians Will be less quick to
take human life. There ought to be no
loniency shown murderers anywhere, and
the sickly sentimentality that induces
jurors TO excuse themselves to a convict
for finding him guilty Of murder, as was
the case at the Cluyerius trial, ought to
be frowned down.

The Cotton Crop Report.

The May report of the National Cotton
Exchange, which reviews the condition
of the cotton crop, is very encouraging.
The condition of cotton at the close of the
month was much better than 1t was at the
same time last year or, for that matter,
fer several years. From the sections
east and west OF the Mississippi river,
and from the Mississippi valley, the re-
ports showed a rather gratifying state of
affairs. In some localities the cotton
plants were damaged by the drought, and
I'm others they were ravaged by insects,
but Notwithstanding these drawbacks,
the prospects Of a large crop are very
promising.
The acreage is considerably larger this
year than It was last, and if the favorable
conditions continue there will be very
large crop. 1t is early in the season yet,
however, and several things may happen
to decrease the yield. At present, how
ever, there is every inducement to look on
the bright side.
a month ago, when threatening war
cloud hung over Europe, the mind Of the
planter Was disturbed by the prospect of
low prices for cotton. The cloud has
about disappeared, however, and there is
reason TO hope that by the time that the
crop is ready for market there will be
such revival in all kinds of business,
and particularly IN cotton manufacture
ing, that the demand for cotton will be
such as to force the price Of it up 10 a
very satisfactory point.
