PERS0NIFICATI0N OF THE RAIN
BOW.

The rainbow is one of the atmos
pheric phenomena that have been most
generally personiied. People of al
most every part of the world have made
of it a living and terrible monster
whose most venial offense is that of
drinking up the waters of springs and
ponds. This belief is found among the
Burmese, Zulus, Indians of Washing
ton Territory, ancient Mexicans, and
Firms, and exists among the popular
fancies of the Slavs and Germans, and
some of the French populations. The
Zulus and the Karens of Burmah i'm
agine that the rainbow spreads sick
ness and death. The Karens, when
they see one, say to their children :
1.-THE rainbow has come down to drink;
do not play, for fear that harm may
come to you " Very singularly, too,
the street boys in Volhynia run away,
crying, run, it will drink you up "
In Dahomey, the rainbow is regarded
as heavenly serpent, damn, which in
sures happiness. The modern Greeks
hold it to be benefcent but just and
severe hero; they say that any one
who jumps over rainbow will change
sex at once; but this saying, which is
also current in Alsace, is only pic
turesque way of indicating the impos-
sibility of Transforming man into
a woman, or a woman into man. The
Delians offered cakes to the rainbow,
and the Peruvians put its image on the
walls of their temples. The CARDS
considered its appearance on the sea a
favorable presage; but on the earth its
influence was pernicious, and they hid
from its view. 1t was personified by
viper. A considerable number of
people give the personifed a co-exist
ence with the depersonified rainbow, Oh
reduce it to the state of thing, but
even then invest it with marvellous
function. Some have made Of it q
celestial bow, which they place in the
hands Of god; with the Lapps it was
the bow of the god of the thunder, by
means of which he shot off his arrows
of fire; with the Australians it was the
phallus of the god of the sky, which
grazed the earth as it passed; with the
Samoyeds and the Kamtchatdales il
was the hem of the clothing of Billion
kai, the god Of the laundering sky
and among the classic ancients it wa
the scarf of Iris, the fair messenger O.
the gods. In Polynesia and with thu
Germans, Hindoos, Persians, and Arab
the rainbow was regarded as bridg'
uniting the abode of the gods with tina
Of men; the road over which soul
travelled with the Jews it symbolize'
the alliance of God and man with tn
Greeks and Romans it was a sigl

DEFINITIONS OF INSPIRATION.

There have been numerous attempts
of late to make new definition of in
spiration that shall be free from objee-
tions supposed to be entertained regard
ing definitions that have long been cur
rent. The definition Of inspiration is
a different thing from acceptance of the
fact of inspiration. Christian men who
agree in accepting the Bible as the word
of God may honestly differ in their
theory of the method by which the
Bible was produced. The Scriptures
themselves, while sufficiently definite
in asserting the fact, do not give def
milton. Here, then, is legitimate field

the diocese of Como thousand were
burned in a year at the beginning of
the sixteenth century /; and at the same
time five hundred persisted in Geneva
in three months. In 200 years 10000
witches are said to have been destroyed
in England; and as recently as 1716,
when the town was enjoying the wit
and satire of the "Queen Anne men,"
a women and her child nine years of
age were hanged at Hungtingdon. Ad-
Olson, with a mind that wavered be-
tween superstition and good sense, .said
he could not forbear believing sin such
a commerce with evil spirits as that
which we express by the name of
witchcraft," while. at the same time,
he could "give no credit to any partic-
ular modern instance of it." Scotland,
which is regarded as an enlightened
part of the empire, held with the ut
most tenacity its faith in witchcraft.
The Scotch, a vigorous people, put
their hands to the work heartily. 1t
was easy to find victims, since, as we
have said already they were tortured
until they confessed. 1t is calculated
that 1900 persons were burned in
Scotland in the last forty years of the
sixteenth century. A century later
witch epidemic broke out in the village
of Mohra, in Sweden. A number of
children were said to be bewitched,
and familiar with the devil, who was
described as wearing gray coat, red
and blue stockings, red beard, and
high-crowned hat. The witches kept
this exacting parsonage supplied with
children, and if they did not procure
him good many, "they had no peace
or quiet for him. The poor wretche5
we're doomed to have no more peace
or quiet in this world. Seventy were
condemned to death, and twenty-thr
were burnt in a single fire at Mohra.
1t is noteworthy that belief in this
frightful superstition, which destroyed
more innocent persons than the So
called Holy Office, was held by men of
great intellectual poverty Erasmus,
Bacon, and the judicious Hooker; by
Sir Edward Coke, Sir Thomas Browne,
Baxter, and Sir Matthew Hale. And
the old belief is not yet extinct in
country districts. Only recently man
at Totnes accused his father of bewitch-
ing, or, as "white witch" called it,
Overlooking" his daughter, so that
she suffered for months from disease in
the arms; and people who live in re-
mote villages may often hear of sim
liar cases. -London Illustrated Ne,Ds.

An American girl who saw Queen
Victoria during her late visit to Berlin is
reported to have said: "Well, dear me, is
that the Queen? What a frumpish, little
old woman she is; to be sure" Her Maj
esty was not particularly impressive

small, fat and common place. Lines have
furrowed their way into her once placid
face. Her cheeks are heavy and big.
Fleshy rings hang under Der eyes. She
was dressed in black, and did not look
unlike any lady of seventy years who had
been travelling all night.

Gen. Wade Hampton has always
been daring horseman, and during the
war he was famous for his dashing cavalry
charges. He went triumphsntly through
the war, but at its close lost leg by an
accident while riding a mule; and the
other day, while riding fiery steed
through the streets of Washington, he
was thrown and badly bruised, while his
artificial leg was broken to splinters.

When Felix Pyat re- entered the
French Parliament, swell, old lion,"
said socialist deputy to him. 81 suppose
you will let us hear you roar again." mo,
my friend" replied the elect of Mar
settles, sat my age lions no longer roar,
they grosn." This is the fourth time he
has been a deputy and he hopes it will
be the last. Till recently he lived very
retired in a small cottage at Saint
GrRtien, in the suburbs of Paris, not far
from the chateau of the Princess Ma
thilde. He is fond of gardening and
poultry rearing, and would still be plant
ing his cabbages but for family disas-
ter, by which he lost his little fortune.
He was then forced to take to his pen
again, and wrote articles of his usually
ford and teverish style in the Cri du
Peuple. This led to his once more being
elected to the councils of his country.

1t is mistake to call the Emper-
or of Germany Frederick III. He signs
all his official acts Frederick Impera.
tor The acts relating to Prussia are
signed Frederick III. The second Fred
erick was Frederick the Great, and in
Prussian conservative circles it was not
thought that any Hohenzollern would
take that name. But the present en-
peror can only be Frederick III. as King
of Prussia, and not as Emperor of Ger
many. There has already been Fred
erick III. Emperor of Germany. He
reigned from 1440 to 1893.

Mr.. Christopher P. Cranch relates
in the Independent his memories of Web
ster, Calhoun, and their contemporaries,
especially in the great Webster Hayne
duello in the Senate "The impression"
he says, "Mr. Calhoun made on me, as
he sat there, sphinx like in his chair, as
President Of the Senate, was that he had
the faculty-like Napoleon OF discharg-
ing all expressions from the face He
must have had immense self control, and
was totally unlike the mobile Benton, of
