Devil Bird of la Souffriere.

The bird called the ''devil bird of
La Soufriere' by both Labat and Du-
tertre, has webbed feet like a duck or
goose and claws like bird of prey, a
sharp and curved bill, and large eyes,
which cannot bear the light of day
When surprised in the daytime at dis
lance from its nest it will run or fly
against everything in It's way. Father
Dutertre, in his description of Guade-
loupe, where the volcano of La Souf-
friere is situated, says that the natives
call the bird by name which means
"devil, and that they do SO on account
of popular belief among them that
the bird nests in the very crater Of the
VOLCANOES at a place inaccessible to man,
among the melting lava and sulphurous
fumes. Father Dutertra finishes his
account of the devil bird in these words:
Here we have bird of wonderful and
surprising ingenuity, which fishes by the
light of volcano and matches it's eggs
by the warmth of its gaseous discharges"

A Wonderful Man.

Williams Kingston, of Ditch-heat,
SomersetsLire, England, was "the most
wonderful of all that wondrous knew"
Concerning him writer Of The London
Chronicle says: I put half sheet Of pa
per, with pen and ink, on the floor before
him. He threw of his shoes as he sat;
took the inkstand in the toes of his left
foot (having been born without arms),
and held the pen in those of the right.
He then wrote three fine lines better
than most can with the fingers. He feeds
himself, and can bring both his meat or
his broth to his mouth by holding the
fork or spoon in his toes. He showed
me how he shaves.
He can dress and undress himself. He is
farmer by occupation; milks his cows
with his toes, cuts his own hay and
binds up the bundles and carries it
about the field for his cattle. In sad
ding and bridling his horse he does it
with his teeth. He is so strong in his
teeth that he can lift ten pecks of beans
with them, and he can throw a hammer
as far with his feet as most people can
with their hands

however, it would Be best 20 separzse
the eggs from the lobster and spread
them upon trays, allowing tho water to
percolate among them, as Is done with
salmon eggs. By this method much
trouble would be avoided, as well Is the
expense of feeding the adult hen lob
sters.
There is no reason apparent wherefore
the same success should not be obtained
with Holsters as has been achieved with
salmon, which have been made to swarm
once more by myriads in streams depop-
ulated by imprudent fishing. Already
tho Holsters on the North Atlantic coast
are rapidly vanishing, and unless meas
ures are soon taken for supplying their
place by artificial propagation there will
be none left. Apparently, however, it
will be entirely practicable to turn out
upon the depleted grounds many mill
ions of young Holsters yearly as soon as
proper plants for this object have been
established.
One thing in favor of lobster raising,
as to cheapness, is that they prefer food
that is partially decomposed, and the
waste food of the towns, now thrown
away, might be most usefully employed
by the lobster hatcheries. Stale fish is
esteemed by lossters an especial delicacy.

Under this title writer In The At.
lantic Monthly discourses upon the fanci-
full and grotesque dialect Of tho southern
negro. In the plantation pstois are
many expressions which display genuine
humor and happy knack ct picturesque
statement, as, for example, when IN un-
productive piece of ground is called
gallery, LAM" and an obedieDt and
tractable servant an orderly gal"
The favorite and indispensable bread
of the field hand-that made of corn
meals John Constant, while wheaton
bread is ''Billy Seldom" Our word SAC
cuse" becomes "'scuse" in the negro's
mouth. There are few of his race, alas,
who have not been, at some time OF
other, "'scuse of a cow" "'scuse of a
pig" "'scuse of q par shoes" and so on
down the scale.
A half starved calf is a "calf OATS
been whipped wild de churn dasher."
To keep down grass is to Eight wild
Genial Green" A matter well accom-
plished is essentially DONE" as, for
instance, when she cooks, she des es-
sentially cooks good" A proud person
is an "umptious somebody"
To live easily and happily is to live
"jolly and wild pleadjure." To be i'll is
to shave misery" To be quite well is
to be "des sorter tollerble." Entertain
ing conversation is ''mockin' bird talk. 4"
Lively tunes are skinner SONGS" or
''reels," or Controllers" "jump up
SONGS or "chunes dat skip wild de
banjo" Religious songs are member
songs" or 'hymn chunes."
Not to be church member is to be
"settin on the sinner seat" ''still in de
open feel, P" ''drinkin' de cup of damna-
tion," and many other such phrases. To
enter the church is to Zine de band" to
take up de cup er salvation" to "git a
seat wild de members" to be '.gethered
in" to put on shine line garment"
and so on indefinitely.

DOGS History.

In all Jewish history there is not a
single allusion to hunting with dogs,
though mention is frequently found of
nets and enares. The uindoos likewise
consider ne animal unclean and submit
to various publications if they acct
dentally come into contact with one,
believing that every dog is animated by
wicked and malignant spirit con-
demned to do penance il that form for
crimes committed in a previous state of
existence. Even in Egypt dogs now are
as much avoided as they were once ven
Grated. However, in Greece and Rome
the beast was highly estimated. Alex
