rmE nEDAL OF HeSoR.

Adjutant General Drum has Just
caused 10 be compiled Ia his office,
says the New YORK Times, q list of
the individuals to whom medals of
honor have been awarded under the
resolution of Congress approved July
Is, 1852, and the act of Congress ap.
proved March 8, 1868.
1t is doubtful whether one person
In ten thousand Is aware that such
medals have been given. Many who
have heard OF the Victoria Gross do
not know of the similar reward for
military gallantry in their own coun.
try. II has been given, nevertheless,
We believe, to something like $50
volunteers, including officers and
men, while the medals TO regular sol
diers during and since the war, In the
latter case mainly for Indian service,
would bring the number mp to about
. thousand. The Adjutant Generals
list of volunteers on whom il has
been conferred shows that by far the
most common ground Of its award
was the capture of one Of the enc
my's flags. Tie captures of regi-
mental cOlors are oftenest spoken OF,
but 10 two or three instances the cap
ture of . corps headquarters flag Is
noted. One service rendered was
that OF capturing karly's headquar-
tiers tlag. Recaptures Of Union days
sometimes elicit the same rewar1..
GallAnIry 10 action figures as . prom
inent general ground for the award,
while specific feais, such as being
first 10 place flag on the enemy's
works, or the first 10 enter tae works,
or carrying of q wounded comrade
under the enemy's FIRE, also receives
mention. The medal was conferred
on one sergeant who was killed while
planting bis dag on the hostile In
trenchments. Bravery on the Skin.
mish line and In the charge, or 10 ad.
vsncing under . heavy IRE has also
been 50 rewarded. Several men who
performed services Of special dan
ger under General Mitchell have the
medal 0ne man received il for sav
ing q cannon; another for capturing
Q cannon. La one case it Was award
ed TO private for capturing forty
prisoners A Nebraska man got Il
for defending property against In
dams. and BFewnell ''foF shooting
the murderer Of Colonel Ellsworth.
We are probably 10 attribute the
general ignorance OF the existence oil
these medals 10 the very s1bdued Anc
routine manner in which they have
been conferred, forwarding the token
by express. accompanied with 8 dry
ofiicial note, being usually the oaly
ceremony Connected with its presen

listed mens the act Of 1853 extended

officers, however, form only a very

he vas hungry, he said,
And be wanted some bread,

He had served in q cavalry corps
10 the war for the Union, be swoFps;
Rods charger milk white,
Was the first in each hte,
And slaughtered bis foes b. the scorps.
But 10 his appeals for 9 pension
The 6oveFnnent paid ne astension;
He vas old ana rheumatic,
And half paFalytic,
And bis woes were too numerous TO
mension.
His case was hard one, no doubts,
| So some Of the boys went about
And raised hin snm
That for some time 20 cum
Would keep him, and then be went out.
When he in the court was arraiRned,
Next morning, the cause was explained;
He had wasted the SUN
That We gave him IN rum
He has since at the leland remained.

q weird and dismal wall,
And the flimsy fakes are Tying on the
pinisns Of the gale;
When the fierce Atlantic pillows, with q
sullen, angry roar,
Rush no the sandy beach and against
the rock bound shore;
When from the folar regions comes the
frost king In his might,
When We hear the storm 1ends shrieking
through tAe tenebFifo night,
When for Christmas geese and turkeys
local statesmen shake the dice,
And in suburban ponds men FISH for
piekeFel through the Toe;
When of smoking whisky punches men
can scarcely get eno1gs,
Il IL then the gentle maiden wants n
ssAlskln sacQue and nua.

The Fatigue s.of a wearing sort''
the Prince Undergoes.

From tho Scottish American Journal.
His lot is not without trials. No
body in thekingdom is harder worked
or undergoes more fatigue of certain
wearing sort than the Prince and
Princes of Wales, and in q less degree
the other members of the reigning
family. They are not only deprived
OF all privacy, always in the world
and before the world, always attended
by persons ofconsequence and exposed
to comment and criticism from fastld-
ious tastes and censorious tongues,
but they are dragged from one cere-
mony to another, from a gallery to a
hospital, from q levee to a procession,
from q dinner to q ball, till life must
often become WEAKNESS. Yet they
must never fail to keep an engage
ment, and they are bound always to
display the especial "politeness of
kings"-punctually. They must be
civil when they are worn out, and
gracious when they are sleepy; they
must remember the names and faces
of the thousandsto whom their recog-
milton is IN honour; for all this is their
trade. They are trained to it from
childhood. They do remember people;
they are punctual and polite; all OF
which should be borne in mind for
them when people carp and crit
icise. The Prince is personally popu-

A Living Barometer.

1t is a well known fact that several Of
our smallest animals are so sensitive to
changes from heat to cold that they
forctell those changes some time in adj
vance.
In the Smithsonian Institutions list
of animals valuable to man, the tree
toad is mentioned as an excellent
weather prophet, and can testify to its
power of foretelling the change in the
weather. have in MY possession a
paper-weight in the form of bronze
frog supporting upon its back glass
tube with bulb at the bottom. Some
months ago was fortunate enough to
catch a tree-toad, and, having heard of
his ability as q weather-prophct, I put
him into my glass tube and made from
matches small ladder so that he could
climb up or down within the tube. I
soon found that the approach of a
change in the weather was always no.
ticed by the little prisoner, who climbed
toward the top whenever the air grew
moist or it began to rain, and as invari-
ably descended toward the bottom of
the tube in advance of the coming of
dry Weather.-iSt. Nicholas,
