A BEAUTIFUL ITALIAN LEGEND.

1t is beautiful story that in one
of the old cities of Italy, the. King
caused bell TO be hung in a tower
in one of the public squares, and
called it "The Bell of Justice" and
commanded that any one who had
been wronged should go and ring
the bell, and so call the magis-
istrate of the city and ask and re-
ceive justice. And when, in the
course of time, the lower end of the
bell-rope rotted away, wild vine
was tied to it to lengthen it; and
one day an old and starving horse,
that had been abandoned by its
owner and turned out to die, wan
dered into the tower, and in trying
to eat the vine, rang the bell. And
the magistrate of the city, coming to
see who rang the bell, found this
old and starving horse; and he
caused the owner of that horse, in
whose service he had toiled and
been worn out, to be summoned be-
fore him, and decreed that as his
poor horse had rung the bell of JUS
tice he should have justice, and that
during the horses life his owner
should provide for him proper food
and drink and stable. S. f. Bull

THE COST OF LIVING IN THE COLO
MES.

At the Conference Hall of TIE
Indian and Colonial Exhibition, on
July Id, a meeting was held to hear
paper read by Professor Leone
Levi, FRS, on the subject of
"The Wages of Labor in Relation
to the Cost of Living" The chair
was occupied by Lady Burdett-
Coutts, and the attendance was
large. Professor Levi referred in
his paper to an estimate of the cost
of living for workingman and his
family in the colonies. According
to this, the cost of food was found
to amount generally to 60 per cent,
of the total expenditure of the
family, leaving 40 per cent, for
other expenses. a sufficient margin
was thus left for the exercise of
thrift, which was not the case with
the English workingman. Con-
siderations of health and climate
and the chances of obtaining ready
employment should guide the in
tending emigrant. Immense advan
tages resulted from the application
of capital and labor TO new coun-
try and n fresh soil. He ascribed
much of the prosperity of the colo
nies to the order and security which
prevailed; and though none of the
colonies, he believed, desired serpa-
ration, yet if it were to take place
neither their trade nor their com
merce would be affected. Sir Saul
Samuel, Agent-General for New
South Wales, said that in the colo
nies the wages obtainable were
treble those received in England,
whilst the cost of food was only
half of that in England. Clothing
was rather more expensive, but that
was not serious item 50 far as the
workingman was concerned. The
deposits in the colonial savings
banks greatly exceeded those in
England: in New South Wales the
average deposit exceeding f32 and
in Queensland f37 per head. The
Hon. James Garrick, C.M.G.,
gent-General for Queensland, said
that Queensland offered peculiar
advantages to settlers, having passed
n homestead law in 1870. In regard
to population, the colony had grown
from 26,000, in 1859, to $40, 900 at
the present time Auckland News.

SETTLING UP CALIFORNIA.

A gentleman connected with the
Immigration Association said this
afternoon concerning the work of
settling up the State this year, that
it promised to be as satisfactory as
what was accomplished last year.
Notwithstanding the fact that the
association has now no agent in
Europe, whose business is exclusive
ly to solicit immigration, large
number of French, Germans and
Italians are coming here, There
are agents to whom printed matter
is sent out for distribution, but the
work in which Paul Oeker was for u
time specially engaged, has been
discontinued. The association has
established a considerable number
of colonies since the beginning of the
present year in Monterey, San Luis
Obispo, Mendocino, Shasta and
other counties, apd there are other
colonists in the East In constant cor
respondence with view to making

road war not only brought immigrants
from the Atlantic side of the United
States, but also from Europe, for a

Association officers speak of the inn
migrants coming in as being of a
sober, industrious class, the major

fic Road south and the California

ton. The immigration Association
officer mentioned that the outlook is
really very satisfactory at present.

OPIUM PROSPECTS.

There is intense excitement among
the Chinese over the new Opium
Law. They regard a licence to sell
the drug as a short and quick road
to fortune. They are undoubtedly
better posted in the possibilities and
probabilities of the trade than any
white man, and do not hesitate to
say that the consumption will be
doubled and trebled almost immedi-
ately after the licence is issued.
They calculate that the price of the
drug can be reduced to one half of
the lowest price ruling at any time
during prohibition, and will then re-
turn profit of from so to 100 per-
cent. This is very different show
ing from that of the licence advo-
Gates, who have contended that
opium would neither be more
abundant nor cheaper under licence
than under prohibition. We have
no doubt that our predictions OF
decentralization, death, and destruc-
ton, as the results of legalized
opium, will surely be realized. We
are sorry for it.

THE THiNNEST MAN.

Instances of remarkably thin men
are not uncommon, but Claude AM
broise Seurat, who was in England
in 1925, was such an extraordinary
parsonage that during the time he
was exhibited at the +" Chinese
Saloon," in Pail Mall, no fewer than
seventy thousand persons visited
him in a few weeks. Seurat was
born in 1897, and was therefore
twenty-eight years of age when he
made his appearance.
Sir Ashley Cooper, the famous
physician, was among the throng
who poured into the building in
which Seurat received those who
were anxious to see him, and wrote:
"Seurat is, without doubt, the most
mysterious being L have encoun-
tered. His face is that of an ordi
nary man, somewhat emaciated,
perhaps, but not remarkably so.
His eyes are bright and his voice
pleasing. Seen in the ordinary
costume of the day he in no way
differs from the average foreigner.
But stripped of his padded clothing
he presents an astounding spectacle.
His arms are mere bones covered by
parchment-like skin, and muscles or
flesh he appears 10 have none. He
is, therefore, scarcely able to move
his arms and legs, and walks, though
without apparent effort, with ex-
treme difficulty. On measuring
him and weighing him, found that
his chest measurement was thirty
and three-quarter inches, which is
fair; that his height was five feet
six inches, but that his weight was
not more than forty-five pounds,
the bones being much smaller than
those of an ordinary man of his sta
ture who might weigh $50 pounds
In appearance, indeed, he so much
resembles skeleton that a short
sighted person might easily mistake
him for one." Seurat's food con
sisted of two or three ounces O
bread and meat daily, and some
times he took a little wine. He wa
remarkably intelligent and well read
and picked up English rapidly. o.
arriving at places where he was no
known, he was accustomed to wall
out in his padded clothes, and di'
not attract any particular attention
He said that until the age of tel
years he resembled any ordinar,
boy, but that he suddenly waste'
away. He died in lS49, aged fifty
two years. Is. f. Bulletin.

CONCERNING THE RED HAT.

The Pope places the red hat upon
the head of the Cardinal to signify
that he is to consecrate his mental
requirements to the service of the
church, and its color signifies that
the wearer must be prepared to lose
the last drop of his blood rather
than betray his trust. The hat is
round in form, with low crown
and a wide rim, from the inside of
which hangs fifteen tassels, attached
in triangular form, one to five. 1t
is worn but twice-once when the
Cardinal receives it in consistory
and next when it rests on the cata-
falque at his obsequies. 1t is then
suspended from the ceiling of the
chapel or aisle of the church i'm
which he may be buried. The red
beretta is a square cap, with three
corners, symbolic of the Trinity,
projecting from its crown. 1t is
sent 10 distant Cardinals by an able
gate, or spiritual Pontitical mes
seneer, who must be one of the
Pope's private chamberlains. Car
dinals alone wear the beretta of red.
The ordinary hat of the Cardinal Is
broad-brimmed round black hat
(tri-corner), absolutely similar to
those worn in Rome by all eccle-
siastics, secular as well as regular.
1t is beaver in winter, of straw
covered with silk in summer. At
the base of the crown is thick red
cord, twisted with gold thread, and
terminating in gold tassels. The
Cardinal usually wears this hat In

A STORY OF THE GERMAN EMPEROR
AND THE AUSTRIAN EMPRESS.

The Empress of Austria, in one of
her freakish moods, conceived the
idea of surprising the German EN-
peror at Gastein the other day, by
visiting him Immediately after his
arrival there, without giving any
notice of her coming. The idea had
to be carried out amid a downpour
of hail and sleet, and it is probable
the still beautiful Empress regretted
the prank, as she found the poor
old fellow amusing himself in an
old, faded slit of clothes, quite un-
fit to receive a lady in, and was
afterward veXed that she exposed
him to the humiliation of being
caught without the trappings which
help to conceal the wretched wreck
which ninety years make of kings
as other men.
But the old Emperor got gaily
over the surprise, chatted pleasantly
for an hour and accompanied the
Empress to the top of the stairs,
where he gallantly kissed her hand
several times and stood bowling
while she descended. The following
day, tricked out in his best style,
the Emperor attempted to catch the
Empress equally unprepared to re-
ceive him; but her Majesty, woman
like, conjectured what would hap
pen, and was ready to do the ho-
nors of receiving in irreproachable
costume. The above unconventional
interchange of compliments was fol-
lowed in couple of days by a
grand dinner party given by the
Emperor, who was in the highest of
spirits and played the gallant to the
Empress and other notable ladies
who were present, kissing their
hands frequently and with much
fervor. The interchange of affec.
ton between the two Emperors was
not so attractive picture. Francis
Joseph confined himself to kissing
his brother monarch several times
with great fervency, but the Ger
man Emperor added weeping to the
osculatory exercise and leaked free
ly down the back seams of the Aus
trian Emperor's coat. Letter tt

SOME TRUTHS.
A LEFT-HANDED REPORT ON LEGISLA-
TIoN BY A VOLUNTEER.

Following Is a paper read this
forenoon at the meeting of the
Planters Labor Il Supply Company,
by Mr.. j. NJ. Horner:
Mr.. PRESIDENT OF THE PLANTERS
LABOR & SUPPLY Coin order to
make an intelligent report on Legis-
lation, l copy from article first of
our By Laws the following, as text
for my report, viz. 'And having
for its objects, the importation of
labor, the improvement of the in
dustry of sugar raising in this King
dom, and the the general benefit of
its stockholders. | wish to call
your attention to, and to emphasize
the last clause, land the general
benefit of its stockholders. From
the above it appears that we have
the right to leglslate upon all sub
jects that we consider beneficial to
us, whether of a financial, political
or moral nature.
Under the heading of ''Financial
Benefit" l will call your attention to
two laws of this Kingdom, the rum
and opium law, which we consider
mischievOus to our financial interests,
and in this way: if 4 company of
men, either by law or leserGemain,
SO injure my horse that l can get
only part of the service out of him
that L formerly could, they take so
much of my property from me and rob
me of so much benefit; or if they
so injure my help by free OPIUM
and liquor laws that can get only
part of the benefit from them that
/ pay for, / have rlght-you have
right-this Planters Association
has a right to protest, and to take
action to prevent this loss which in
the aggregate is large; as every
plantation manager and every over
seer will tell you that they suffer
great loss during the year from the
use of rum, and now that the free
use of opium is added, our interests
will be still more injured, and we
can, and must protest and legislate
for the general benefit of stock
holders. Not only are planters in
jured by the evil working of these
vicious laws, but merchants and the
general public are also injured, as
there is less property for trade and
traffic by many thousands than there
would be if labor was not injured
by these debasing evils.

cabinets were plotting and steering
