RARE INSTINCT.
The Wonderful Performances of a Cincin-
natI Dog.

A remarkable story is told of a dog
pointcr-owned by a gentleman in
Cincinnati, who three times gave him
away to friends at some distance from
the city, only to find him back again,
once through binding snow-storm,
very shortly after his banishment. 1t
was resolved to experiment with him,
in order to test the fact whether this
was the result of memory or of some
l,eenly- ly-developed scent or other sense
not known. lie was accordingly dosed
with morphine and taken to a town in
Kentucky, one hundred and fifty miles
away In twenty eight hours he was at
his masters door. 1t was thought,
however, that he might have recovered
from his lethargy in time to see in what
direction he was Going, and SO had
found his way back by simply keeping
to the railroad tracL. lie was therefore
dosed with ether, put i'll closed basket
and taken northeast and southeast, then
kept in dark shed over night and let
loose in the morning He at once set
out in straight line and ON a run-not
at all like dog that had lost his way
crossed two broad rivers and three
steep mountain ranges, through five
large towns and network Of roads and
cross roads. Although he had never
been in that part of the country before,
IN four days he reached Cincinnati
again. He could not have remembered
on known any thing about his journey
down, for he was unconscious the whole
of the time. What, then, induced him
to start in the right direction and keep
it until he arrived home? This ques-
ton has long puzzled the naturalists;
fer stranger instances of animals find
ing their way home even than this have
occurred. They are, however, rare anG
suggest the idea that this instinct is ex
ceptional and not common to animals

He WASHED CLEAN.
An Indian Legend Accounting for the
White Mans Superiority.


White Mans Superiority.
Among the Seminole Indians there is
singular tradition regarding the white
mans origin and superiority. They say
that when the Great Spirit made the
earth he also made three men, all of
whom were fair-complexioned; and
that after making them he led them to
the margin of a small lake, and he bade
them leap in and wash. One obeyed,
and came out of the water purer and
fairer than before. The second hesi-
tated q moment, during which time the
water, agitated by the first, became
muddy, and when he bathed he came up
copper colored. The third did not leap
in till the water became black with
mud, and he came out its own color.
Then the Great Spirit laid before them
three packages and, out of pity for his
misfortune in color, gave the black man
first choice. He took hold of each of
the packages and, having felt their
weight, chose the heaviest; the copper
colored chose the next heaviest, leav-
ing the white man the lightest. When
the packages were opened the first was
found to contain spades, hoes and all
the implements of labor; the second en-.
wrapped hunting, fishing and warlike
apparatus; the third gave the white mar
pens, ink and paper-the engines of The
mind, the means of mutual improve
ment, the social link of humanity, til,
foundation of the white mans superior
ity.--Waterbury American.

GOOD FOR EVIL.
The Mistake Made by Beautiful but
Haughty Miss.


A young girl, beauti in form, feat
pfc and dress, sat in car the other
lay, says the Boston Herald. Directly
sat a poor girl of about the
same age, shabbily clothed, with
shambling body, slightly deformed as
10 the shoulders, and an exceedingly
plain face, which bore the lines of suffer
ing and want Her eager eyes were
fixed on the face and figure opposite
her with devouring pathetic look that
showed how keenly alive she was to the
exceeding beauty of beautiful body,
says the New York Telegram.
The object of the gaze began to grow
uneasy under its intensity and fixity,
and finally, looking the girl coldly in the
face, she leaned partly across the car
and said:
'Well, Miss Impertinence, if you have
looked at me long enough, will you be
kind enough to look somewhere else? |
am tired of it,"
The poor girl grew first red and then
white. A look of keen pain came into
,er eyes, and then tears, as she turned
way and said softly:
Il was only thinking how beautiful

HEROES OF THE SEA.
Noble Americans Who Have Won Renown
In Our Navy.


The story of the American navy is an
inexhaustible fountain of inspiration.
No page in the history of the race is
brighter than that which tells of the
leeds wrought TO sustain the primacy
If columbia" as the 'gem of the
ocean" England, long the mistress of
the seas, can not, in the interval since
the uprising of the colonies, show u
braver record. Wherever the British
drumbeat is heard are celebrated the
glories of Trafalgar and the Nile, and
the Baltic and thousand other victor
les. But who shall say that any of
these surpassed the valorous achieve
ments of our second conflict with the
mother country, when she was taught,
for the first time, that Britannia did not
necessarily rule the wave? We have
only, in justification, to point to ''Old
Ironsides," to gallant Lawrence in the
Chesapeake, to Perry on Lake Erie, to
Macdonough on Lake Champlain, and
to the American privateers which in
1si2'15 swept the Atlantic free of Eng
lish commerce. Passing to later day
we recall the lesson taught by Decatur
on the Barbary coast and the admori-
ton conveyed to the Mexicans at Vera
Cruz. And what combat shall furnish
the parallel to the work of the navy in
the civil war? It's triumphs adorn the
proudest places in American history.
What emotions well up as the eye re-
vcrts to marvellous strides taken by
Uncle SANS web feet" as it traces the
establishment of three thousand mile
blockade; the victory in Hampton
Roads; the energy and fidelity of Du-
pont and Dahlgren at Charleston; the
services of grand old Foote and Porter
and Wake on finland river and broad
bayou" the mad assaults of poor Jack at
Sumter and Fisher; the exploits of Cush-
ing and the Albemarle; the memorable
duel of the Alabama and Kearsargc Off
Cherbourg, and, above all, the heroic
performances of the great admiral at
New Orleans and in the momentous en-
counter off Mobile bay! These and a
hundred other passages appeal irresist-
IDLY to the imagination, the memory
and the gratitude of every American
citizen worthy of the name. They are
an appropriate basis from which to sur
vey the prospects of the American nava
future. Eagle.

A BRAVE WOMAN.

Heroic Conduct of a,ire lch rostm stress
During The IRA ico-ti ,rman War.
The administration OF posts and tel
eGraphs of France has decided to add a
grant to the subscription opened for the
purpose Of erecting modest memorial
TO Marie Biard, who saved her country
during the Franco-German war in a
manner which the most msentimental
person can hardly refuse to regard as
heroic.
When the Prussians invaded the De-
partment of the Seine Inferieure during
the campaign of 1S70-71 Marie Clemen-
tine Biard, then aged twenty, acted as
as an assistant to her aunt, who was chief
postmistress at Autfray. Postal com
lnuIication was interrupted in the dis
triCt by the invasion, whereupon Marie
Biard carried the letters herself every
night during period of two months
over a distance of about twenty-five
miles, delivering them at various vii
lagos between Dieppe and Rouen.
The enterprise was full of pain and
peril The snow lay thickly on the
roads and fields: the German patrols
were everywhere, and in order to avoid
them the girl was frequently obliged
either to make long circuits or to lie hid
for hours in a wood. She was arrested
three times by the enemy, but succeeded
in escaping on each occasion. After the
war the Government offered to promote
Marie Biard, but she preferred to remain
with her aunt. She died from rheuma-
tism, contracted during her perilous
nocturnal expeditions at the time of the
