In the Early Centuries.
[Exchange.]

lASAShhhSCJ
Dr. French, in q recent work, 'Nine-
teen Centuries of Drink in England"
says that mead was the intoxicant of the
ancient Briton. The Romans introduced
wine. Cider was known at an early
date, but the Saxons, Danes, and Nor
mans brought in the secret of stronger
beverages. Distilled liquors were intro
duced under the Plantagenets, and
clergymen then began to tipple. In the
sixth century men of all degrees "slum-
bered away their time in drunkenness. {"
The prevalent intemperance of the sew
enteenth century is said to be due to
the act to encourage distillation, the ex-
haustion of light wines, the influence
of the court, and the development of
casting and club life. DR.. French pre-
diets that moderation will increase I'M
til intoxicating beverages shall be used
and not abused, and thus become one of
our blessings.

"Cobs,, and MIsacks.n
[Wallace's Monthly.l

lWallaCeS MOnUnly.l
The descriptive words "cobs" and
hacks, as applied to particular types
Of horses, are of limited use in this
country, and some of our readers seem
to suppose that they are used to desig-
nate certain breeds that are known by
these names. This is mistake The
terms are not used to designate breed,
but to indicate the type Of an animal,
in his size and conformation, no diff
ference what his blood or whether he
has any blood. a ''cob'' is a short
legged, stout, block and compactly built
animal, varying in height from thirteen
hands three inches to fourteen hands
three inches. ''The hack" is the same
type of an animal, varying in height
from fourteen hands three inches to
fifteen hands three inches. The hack is
larger than the cob and the cob is larger
than the pony, and the sizes we have in
dictated are after the best English usage. .
The Morgan horse, in his original type,
would have been the Englishman's true
ideal of the cob.

The First Visitor to the Yosemite.
TWestern ,etter

In all that has been recorded about
the Yosemite no satisfactory evidence
has ever been produced as to the first
white mans footprints on the level
where the beautiful MERGED seeks egress
from the rock-bound chasm. We con-
cede that honor to Louis Sammann, a
Mono county man, now residing at Mono
lake. Louis is a pioneer, an old hunter
and guide in that portion of the ST.
ezra, and figured in many escapades
during the Indian troubles. He has
abundant proof of memorable trip into
the valley in 1851. When hunting for
game he followed the sinuosities of an
Indian trail from the direction of Coul-
terville, and brought up in the vicinity
of Bridal Veil fall. He had killed a
deer, and, being nearly worn out with
fatigue, was seeking the nearest water,
when he came Unexpectedly upon a
large camp of hostile Indians, which had
the effect of settling all desire for thirst.
As may be supposed, his visit was of
short duration,

A BALLAD OF SARK.

tAlgornon Charles Swinburne.l
High beyond che granite portal arched across
Like the gateway of some godlike giants
Sweep and swell the billowy breast of moor
East and westward, and the doll their
slopes enfold
Basks in purple, glows in green, cxults in
gold.
Glens that know the dove and fells that hear
the lark
Fill with joy the rapturous island, as an ark
Full of spicory wrought from herb and
flower and tree.
None would dream that grief even here may
disembark
On the wrathful, woful margc of earth and
sen.
Rocks. emblazoned like the mid shields royal
boss
Take the sun with all their blossom broad
None would dream that all this moorland's
glow and gloss
Could be dark as tombs that strike the
spirit a-cold
Even in eyes that opened here, and here
Now no sun relume from hopes belated
spark
Any comfort, nor may ears of mourners
bark
Though the ripe woods ring with golden
Elee
While the soul lies shattered like n stranded
bark
On the wrathful, woful marge Of earth and
sea.
Death and doom are they whose crested tri-
umphs toss
On proud plumed waves whence mourning
notes are tolled;
Wall of perfect woe and moan for utter loss
Raise the bride-song through the graveyard
on the void
Where the bride-bed keeps the bridegroom
fast in mould
Where the bride, with death for priest and
doom for clerk,
Hears for choir the threats of waves like
wolves that bark
Sore anhungered, off the drear Eperquerie
Fain to spoil the strongholds of the strength
of Sark
On the wrathful, woful marge of earth and
seq. T,
Prince of storm and tempest, lord whose ways
are dark,
Wind whose wings are spread for flight that
none may mark
Lightly dies the joy that lives by grace Of
thee
Love through thee lies bleeding, hope lies cold
and stark,
On the wrathful marge of earth and sea.

Victor Hugo's Last DAYS.

A Paris letter to the New York C0ur-
rieF des Flats Uais describes the scenes at
Victor Hugo's bedside during his illness.
On Holy Thursday several guests, in
GLIDING M. de Lesseps, dined at Hugo's
house, and the poet was in high spirits,
and gave no token of approaching i'll
ness. In the middle of the following
night he was seized with some trouble of
the heart, which rapidly developed into
the malady that ended his life In a
few days he became convinced that he
could not recover, and to those who
spoke to him encouragingly Of his con-
dition, he replied:
mo, it is the end. / feel that / am
going to die
On the morning of May 10. three days
before his death, Nine. Lockroy asked
him:
"How do you feel, father7"
well, very we'll, he replied. tit is
death: it is welcome"
Then to M. Lockroy he said: my
friend, it is dying man who speaks to
you. He added an instant later
death is very long; it Is too long. "
In the course of the preceding night,
during a moment Of delirium, he pro-
nounced in loud voice a French line.
Then he talked Of his grandchildren.
Between his fits of delirium he conversed
freely with the members of his family.
One day he seemed buried in recollcc-
tions of his youth; then he talked ra-
tionally with the bystanders, and sud
denly, Ia the midst OF the talking, he
hogan to recite verses OF Sp anish poet.
He had always had liking for Spain,
in which country he passed part Of his
childhood.
As soon as the attacks passed he would
resume his cheerful mood.

the statement that, by careful estimate,
spider ate four times its weight for
breakfast, nearly nine times its weight
for dinner, thirteen times its weight for
supper, finishing up an ounce, and at 8

search of food. At this rate a man Of
100 pounds would require the whole of
