Australian JargOn.

Mrs. Millett gives in her book, IAN
Australian Parsonage" an amusing
account of the peculiar mixture OF ma
tive and English speech which serves
the purposes of soca.-, and business in
tercourse betw zen 0ss natives and the
cOlonists.
This sort of hotchpotch is composed
of native words largely mingled with
English, and is better understood by
the natives than is plain English. 1t
consists in getting rid Of all preposi-
tons, driving the verb to the end OF
the sentence, and lacking on to 1t the
syllable ''um" as an ornamental finish
wherever it sounds euphonious.
Thus l heard Khourabene calling
out one day Dog hollarum. water
wantum," implying that he thought
our house dog was whining with
thirst.
A large quantity of anything is ex-
pressed by the words "big fellow" as
''big fellow rain," big fellow fond
of but in showing pity or condo
lence, poor old fellow" is the receiv-
ed form, and it is of such universal APP
plication that it is quite as suitable to a
baby cutting its teeth as to the moon
suffering from an eclipse. "Quiet
fellow" and "sulky fellow" have an
almost equally wide range, the first
signifying any degree of amiability,
either in man or beast, and the latter
fercrity to like extent.
The words ''get down" have been
chosen as synonym of the verb ''to
be-" and the first question of friend
ly native would be, 'Mamman ali
right get down2" meaning us father
quite weil2" for, strange to say, mann
man is the native word for father,
whilst nangan or oongan stands fol-

In a similar way hit upon vastly bet
ter method Of routing the invaders OF
his peace. He lost his first wife, with
whom he had lived fifty years, and IN
time took another bride to solace his
declining days. Such a proceeding,
though warranted both by Holy WIT
and human precedent, caused consld-
cradle talk in the neighbOrhood on &C
count of the deacon's advanced age,
and some of the young people propos-
ed to give the couple an old fashioned
serenade So they gathered a large
and noisy crowd together, equipped
themselves with a circular saw,
chime of COW bells and band of
horns, and set up frightful din in
front of the deacon's house several
hours after the old gentleman and his
bride had retired The first alarm
brought the deacon to the door The
spectators expected storm of righte-
Gus wrath to burst upon their heads
and were prepared to meet it with a
tempest of saw, horn and cowbell.

The deacon and his wife provided

the good old man took the family Bi-
BILE from the shelf and read a passage
of Scripture in clear voice. Having
finished the chapter he closed the good
book, knelt down, and said feverently,
Let us pray"
The company listened respectfully
to long prayer, IN which the deacon
asked for special manifestation OF
heavenly grace to the misguided youth
of the community.
