VI. Violet has written an essay upon
the causes which led to females being
excluded from succession to the throne
OF France. According to him, the prin-
ciple was elaborated in the period of
about 100 years comprised between the
death of Louis Y and the final triumph
of Charles VII and became a fnnda-
mental law of the monarchy when the
daughter of Louis Y. the daughter Of
Philippe lie Long and the daughters of
Charles lie Bel were deprived of their ia
theirs succession. These precedents es-
tablished the law Oh the subject. but it
is not generally known hat the history

throne commenced by the indirect recog-
milton of female rights. -London Times.

Migrating Birds and Their Flight.

Many discussions have been maintain
ed as to the ann of flight of birds in
migrating. The wild geese are well
known to have a way Of gathering in a
large fock and travelling in something
like a military procession, but for the
most part naturalists have differed in
their ideas on this. as they differ SEEM
ingly Oh most subjects. some asserting
that most birds fly low, others that
they fly high. etc. Some observations
made by Mr.. w. E. d. Scott. however,
at Princeton college on the night of Oct.
10, 1880, give some data upon which to
base an opinion. His observations dis
covered a large fight Of migratory birds
proved by computations made at the
time to be fying from one to four miles
high above the earth. They were small
birds like the robin, wren. etc. This
leads US TO another point-yiz., the dan
gers encountered by birds in their annual
fight. OF course the greatest is by storms,
which beat them far from their course
out to sea, when they drop from exhaus-
ton and are drowned, or TO the earth,
where the force Of the fail Is no less
fatal.-Mrs. J. B. Southworth in Albany

Nurture and Physical DeSciOpMe nt.

We may ask. Has any actual difference
been ascertained between the growth OF
the children of the favored class and
that of the less favored chila. Do fresh
air and good food and exercise and the
absence of cXlausting labor tell not only
upon the general health and happiness OF
orr children. but upon their height and
weight and the development of their
chests: Does nurture tell in actual fig
may answer yes.
1t should be remarked in this connec-
ton that in regard to their actual origi.
nal endowment of bone and muscle. ma
ture is impartial in her favors. that her
children are born free and equal in this
respect. and that circumstances as re-
CARDS poverty or wealth or class, whether
Of king or peasant. have little or no i'll
f1uence upon the size of the new born.
1t is also noteworthy that the tendency
in the beginning is always toward the
normal symmetrical development Of the
