One protest only we have to enter before

greater mistake than to imagine that these
clever and amusing experiments have any
thing in common with Leibniz'S conception
OF a philosophical language. What Leib-
niz had in his mind may be guessed from
the "ESsay towards u Real Character and a
Philosophical Language" by Bishop Will

given in Max Mtller's Lectures on the

THE LAST SENSATTO
From the SPECTATOR

We greatly doubt the moral right
of Miss Leona Dare, the aeronaut
who assembled from the Crystal Palace
on Monday, to risk her life as she does,
ever for the sake of getting a living
by the exhibition of her courage. Ac-
cording to her own account in the
Poll Null Gazette, which was
verified by sixty thousand spectators
on Monday, she ascends Some mile
and a half into the air (three thousand
metres is her own estimatel hanging
to a balloon by her teeth, which are
unusually strong. An iron bar is at
tached to II trapeze suspended from
the car, to one end of which an india
rubber mOuthpiece or ball OF that
substance has been fitted. Miss Dare
puts her mouth over this. closes her
teeth, and is carried up by the bal
loon, supported by her teeth alone, to
a ineis hit at which she is invisible from
below. There she signals to two en-
perienced assistants in the car, who
lower Il ladder by which she ascends,
being, of course, trained to all acroba-
tic feats, through a trap-door, into the
basket, "then the basket is divided
into two compartments by a shawl,
and behind this partition l change my
ballooning costume, which of necessi-
ty is very light, into an ordinary walk
ing dress, so as to be ableto go home
without Inconvenience when we de-
scend.' Miss Dare declares that she
suffers no inconvenience beyond a
surging in her ears, which lasts for
some time after she has descended,
and that through long exercise, her
teeth and jaws have become exception
ally strong and trained TO bear The ex-
cessive fatigue which, tits plain, must

TayIor's house, leaving behind him %
prison sock, and then entered the
house of t. Woods, d captain in the
Salvation Army. Here he stole FL
los, Mr.. Wood being asleep, enjoyed
himself with porter aud cigars, and
then steaIing the keys of tho Saliva
ton Army barracks, deposited his
cigar ends there. Moved, appar-
emily, by mere bedeviIment, he even
wrote down on paper an accurate
description of the money he hadtakrn,
finishing the uccoun with, Good bye
Captain though lost to Sight TO
memory dear" and signed it "Shake-
speare." Then he disappeared !; and
although the police are hunting him
with unusual vigilance and Zeal, the
murder of a warder being fatal to all
discipline, up to Friday evening he
had not been arrested. If the penalty
of death were abolished, how could
that ma be punished?
In the off 5iaI report upon R l9sian
statistics for 1885, it is mentioned
that in that year the population
amounted to lO9, 600, 900, that the
birth-rate exceeded the ~death-rate by
100000 a year, and that of $4,000
young men eligible that year for
military service, only 22S,OO0 were.
enrolled. Service in Russia lasts,
however, for twelve years and the.
total meaning of the figures is that
the Russians are incomparably the
most numerous of the white peoples,
and her means of forming and
renewing her Army at least four
times as great as hat of any first
class nation. If she ever produced
an Emperor with military genius who
was also ambitious, those would be
serious facts.

At a time when the controversy as
to what Irish ~boycotting really means,
is SO bitter. everybody should read
Mr.. T. W. RoIleston's answer to Mr..
=. Laing's discreditable apology for
it. NJ. ROlIrston is not a Unionist,
but a Nationalist. He has been a
strong supporter of Home-ruIe, and
would still be a strong supporter of it,
if lie could find a party to defend it in
the old style in which Gavan Duffy
and Thomas Davis advocated the
Nationalist cause forty years ago.
But he feels for boycOtGRg,Gas it is

that is destroying the amutvalicon-
idence of neighbours and friends
throughout a p%easantry of w%arm-heart-
ed but morally timid, not to say
morally cowardIy temperament, and
he denounces it with a freedom
and IL force that it does the heart
good to recognise. The little pam
phlet which is published by Ponson-
by, Of Grafton Street, Dublin, will
do more to reinforce the Pope's
condemnation than all the elo-
quence which the whole Unionist
Press can produce, Tor this is Impair
tiaI evidence given by an enthusiastic
Irish Nationalist who, nevertheless,
rates honor above party.

Some people say, Let everyone learn
English. and the problem is solved at
once. So it would be, so perhaps it will
be, when the leopard shall lie down with
the kid. But till that comes to pass diffe-
rent kinds of compromise are suggested.
First Of all, as to grammar, there is no
excuse for any irregular nouns or irregular
verbs, for gender as different from sex,
for obsolete degrees of comparison, or for
any involved syntacticai constructions.
These ought all to be abolished. Secondly,
as to the dictionary, it is quite clear that
if 5000 words sufficed for Shakespeare,
a dictionary Of 100000, like the English
dictionary now being published by the
University of Oxford, is the most fearful
extravaganza ever known. Here all inven-
tors of a pew language insist on retrench-
ment. The inventor of Volapik was salts
fed at first with a dictionary of 10000
words. but we are now promised a new one
of 90, 900.
There is a great difference of opinion,
however, when the question arises from
what source these words ought to be derlv-
ed. Some draw their words at random
from a number of the best known Language
es, others confne themselves, as much as
possible. to words common to German,
French. and English. Volapik draws on
several banks, chiefly on English, but it
clips its coins fearfully. Thus, its very
name. VOlapUk, is taken from German and
English. Vol represents the German
Volk, pix the English speech, so that 90
la.pik means originally f~Olk.speech. In
the same manner appetite has been repla-
ced by potit, abundance by bunddn, SLIDER
by silef, Jeao by yudel, house by dom. In
many cases these borrowed words nave
been 80 much changed that it is difficult
to recognize them. Here PGSdlRguG has
q great advantage. All its words remind
us of a TeutOnic or Romantic prototype, or
of English, which has ~amalgamated these
two elements in it's dictionary. VOlapuk
often requires a commentary, where PasI,
lingua allows us to guess with a gOou
chance of success. Thus
What o'clock is it? is in Volapuk Dip
kind binoSf Pasilingua Quota bora er at
Where do you live ? is III Volapuk h(p,

After Volapuk has once chosen what
may be called its stems, which consist
mostly of Il c0nSonant, Il vowel, and a
c0nsonant only, everything else becomes
easy enough. Thus if fat Stands for father
