Last Sunday dawned bright and cloud
less a young COW who had risen with
the night thought that existence was
delight and that on a day Of that sort
the back yard did not afford sufficient
scope for enjoyment Strong with the
spirit OF exploring fields more green and
pastures newer, she Strolled forth, and
when she reached the park with the trees
SO shady and the grass 50 green, she
thought that she had come to the Elysian
fields of cowdOm. There was pound
master, stern and cruel man, who had
oped his eyes when Aurora steeds We're
prancing in her car and scattering the
clouds before the golden god Of light. He
looked out upon the world SO fair, and
thought that it was just the morning for
him to arrest the steps of any stray horse,
DOC. cat cow or lobster. He started out
and anon his steps did lead him past the
park. where the young cowWas browsing.
''Ha. said he, have thee now, thou vile
poluter of the Sabbath''-he was Pres
byterian. and started to impound her.
She was not in the humor that morning
to be taken captive, and she too started,
but away from the impounder. Then be-
gan race which rivals those Of classic
DAYS. It was Il scene to make one feel
young once more Here, there, every
where fitted the COW. and the pound
master was not far behind. At last they
began circling around the band stand,
and to my mind there flashed the story of
classic lore-the race Of Atalanta, and her
defeat BY Milamon, who, knowing wom-
ans love for beauty and gold, dropped
three golden apples in her path, and while
she stopped to pick them up, outstripped
her in the race The poundmaster, too,
must have remembered that story, for he
gathered three wisps of grass, and as he
cmcled around the band-stand, he dropped
one. another. then the third, and while
the cow stopped to eat the last, he slipped
a rope around her horns and led her
away. So much for a classical education
when it comes to impounding COWS.

A Columbus Novel.

We ore about to celebrate the -four
hundredth anniversary of the CONT
nent by Columbus. Many readers,
not aware of the fact, will be glad to
know that one of the Fenimore Coop
er's novels-"M Mercedes of Castillo
is a Columbus story. The hero of
that romance accompanies Columbus
on his venturous enterprise, and q
large part of the narrative consists
of an account OF the voyage, OF the
discoveries, and all that occurred.
At this juncture readers will find it
timely and entertaining. Therealex-
periences ofColumbus are interviewer
with some romantic adventures
OF the hero, and there is introduced
in the story an Indian girl. Ozema,
who is probably the most fascinating
vi all the savage beauties that figure
in fiction.

After making the announcement. the

There was a blush and litter on the

How Many Words in English.

An interesting question suggested
by an ancient waif bf book is the
number OF English words now exist.
ing. Considerable difference of opin-
ion exists on this point. Mr.. George
p. Marsh, an American author of re-
pute, in his Lectures on the English
Language" estimates that the num-
her lin 1861 probably does not
fall short of 100, OOO;" and large ad-
ditions, especially in art and science,
have come into use since that date.
Other writer's, however, come to n
di fferent conclusion, and think that
40, 900 would include the whole. 1t
depends good deal on how calcula-
tions are made. If all the subsidiary
undergraduates and the like-are
to be taken into account, it will
swell the sum total very considera-
bly,.
Taking the first three words that
occurred Mt random, we find that
from demonstrate" in one of our
modern dictionaries, there are thir-
teen derivatives. from the word
''bright" there are twelve, and from
"deplore" there are ten. There ia
also redundance in other forms. In
one OF Todds editions ofDr. johnson
there are upwards Of eighty words
with the prefix ''all''-all-complying,
all divining, all.drowsy, and SO on
a very notable instance ofdictionary
padding. In ways like these the vo
cabularly may be indefinitely increas
ed. Probably il we take leading
words and oil their derivatives, thu
number ut the present time will ex
coed Mr.. Marsh's estimate. An ap
proximate verification of this may bs
found by multiplying the number o
pages in any good modern dictiona
ry by the average number of words
in page.
Shakspeare's works, it is believed
include about l 5 900 separate words
and Millions about 5000; but from
these figures we have no criterion q
the extent of the actual English vo
cabulary. 1t may be mentioned her
that while Cockeram has only abou
1000 or {, 900 there are in Bailey
Dictionary approximately abou
36. 900. and in Johnson's not NOR
than that. In some of the large
modern works, again, the figures, q
has been said, reach to upward q
100, 900 words.
