Informed me that the Appropriation by Con.

THE FIRST INSTANCE.

The Dramatic End Of . Bonb-Proof and
Anti-Explosivs Goat.
A grocer up Michigan avenue has
had pet goat hanging around his
back yard for the last two or three
years. The animal was Of no particu-
lar use. except to eat up spoiled
oranges, lemons and eggs. and to ter
rify such small boys a. came into the
alley to read dime novels or play mar
bles; but the grocer had . certain affec-
ton for him, and refused several offers
to let him 60 for cash. The other day the
grocer purchased . four-gallon jar of
broken honey, and this ssas placed in
the back end of the ssore. At noon
time. when the only clerk was In the
front. the goat softly entered BY the
back way and went for the sweet. 1t
was the FIRST and finest honey he had
ever tasted. For long time he thought
he couldn't get enough of it, but as he
gradually worked to the bottom of the
jar he gradually filed up, and he
backed of and cried quits when there
was yet q gallon left.
Some people are strangely affected
by honey. So are some goats. It
wasn't fifteen minutes before this chap
began to roll his eyes and hump himself
in curious fashion. His antics finally
crowded the back yard with visitors,
and doctor who came with them, ven
tured the opinion that it was case of
goat collie. For an hour or more Old
Whiskers butted everything from an
oyster can to woodshed, and he
turned cart-wheels and hand-springs
until the boys were put to shame. They
held him and dosed him, and they sent
all around to borrow u stomach pump,
but, as one of the crowd observed, 1.-The
honey had become so identified with
his system" that he couldn't be saved.
He plunged into snow bank, kicked
half dozen old bottles across the yard
and was dead-the first instance known
in the history of Detroit where any
earthly thing has been able to get the
better of a goat. They have heretofore
been supposed to be copper-bolted,
bomb-proof and anti-explosive and to
live forever.-Detroi Free Press.

THE BRITISH PARLIAMENT.

Opening of the Parliament at Westminster
by the Queen In Person.
LONDON, January 21.-The new Parlia-
ment is at last in session, and the hands
upon the face of "Big Belt' in Westmin-
ster Hall have begun to record the minutes
and hours of what may prove to be one of
the most important legislatures which the
country has seen for many generation.
With pomp and ceremony, and the braying
Of trumpets, the climbing of the accoutre-
ments of booted and spurred out-riders, the
flashing of precious stones and the pic.
turesque combination of crimson and ermine,
she, whom, by the grace of God, has the for
tune or misfortune to be at present Queen
of Great Britain and Ireland and
Empress of India, has graciously conde-
scended to open in person a Parliament,
which, if report speaks truly, will be called
upon to add another and still blacker chap
ter to the already bulky volume which
records the history of England's mis-
g0vernance of the Emerald Isle.
1t is many years since Queen
Victoria opened a parliament in person
The last occasion was upon the induction
into power of the Disraeli administration,
and with the demise of that brilliant but
cratic "Jingo," it was believed, and as
serted that Her Majesty, whose personal
antipathies to the grand old man are sci.
dom disguised would nc'er again consent
to again appear before her faithful sub.
jects in the role of Parliament opener.
Certain it is that all the sessions during the
administration of Gladstone were opened
by proxy. But times have changed. The
unexpected which always happens has
come to pass. Signs of a cyclone are in
the political horizon. A section of the EN-
pire, which for years has demanded indie
pendence, has at last reinforced its demand
through the ballot box, and solid pha!anx
of Irish patriots holds the balance of power
between the representatives of the two
great political parties. The situation is
critical, the exigencies of tho hour are
many and great; hence it is that the
Queen, emerging from her enforced re-
tirement, seeks to arouse the enthusiasm
and patriotism of her subjects by once more
herself in public I'm the role of
"tou:er" for Tory administration.
