Romance of the Future.

The realm of the half supernatural
has been much worked, but 1t is 10y no
means exhausted yet. Is there no.
where n family merged in our complex
civilization which descends, and knows
that it descends, from the race believed
by old commentators to be mentioned
in Genesis, the half-breeds of heaven,
the children of angels and men, and
which retains from that descent powers
and capacities and longings and, above
all, certainties as TO another life, and
with them religious obligations un-
known to its fellows all around, always
operative, yet always of necessity con-
cealed? Is there no one who is undying
yet must obey all other conditions of
humanity; no one, except St Leon, for
whom wealth is producible at will, yet
who breads to use his power; no one
possessed of the faculty Bulwer used to
hint at, but never utilized in his half
supernatural stories, of generating in
another mind any idea he would? The
novelists who have used mesmerism as
machine have thought of that power,
but have always limited it TO its sub
ject's periods of unconsciousness and
employed it for some comparatively
trifing end.
Except in the departments of mes
merism and sleep-walking, the romance
writer's have hardly utilized the facts
of physiology now creeping slowly into
common knowledge, while they have
left the machinery of science to Jules
Verne, who uses it with the intellectual
subtlety of peep show proprietor who
has hired an electric light. Suppose a
man IN his sleep learned all that waking
he desire to know. 1t would be but a
grand exaggeration of some well known
mental processes in sleep.-London
Spectator.

Bird Instinct.

The instances where trails Of animals
or flights of birds and insects have
guided those who knew how to inter-
pref them are numberless. When L
was on King Williams Land, in the
Arctic Ocean, was one day hunting
inland from the beach where my camp
was pitched, when suddenly dense
fog overspread the land, and l thought
1 was in for a time of it in getting
home. L set my face resolutely in the
supposed direction, and plodded along,
winding around many sinuous lake
shores, which made it hard to keep a
true course. Soon an eider-duck sprang
up from her nest and went whirring
away almost at right-angles TO my
course Then L remembered that for
days, as we had been walking near the
beach, we had been frightening these
ducks from their nests close to the
lakes, and that they had always flown
straight out to sea to join the brakes
sitting along the edges of the ice cakes
and ice foes. / followed the course
mapped ont by the duck, and started
another, and this being in the same
direction, as were several others, / con-
fidently followed it until / came TO
where L would have got ducking had l
pursued them further. Our tracks along
the beach showed L was south of the
camp, and L followed it to that desir-
able point. Oltti71g.

For two minutes it quivered silently at the

unprecedented in the history Of hangings.
In deep cultural tone from beneath the

almost touched his breast, and while his

Of his neck until choked from the rear. His
