The committee on Coinage has ia

Bands bill for the coinage of the
,igniorage in the Treasury and the

Mr.. Bland will endeavor to get the

the bill, and the general impression
is that it will pass.
The Sundry Civil Appropriation bill

President Cleveland is being very

nominated the man he thinks fitted

done absolutely nothing to influence
the vote of any Senator, and has no
intention of doing anything. His du-
ty ended with making the nomination.
1t is prerogative of the Senate, to con-

HABITS OF THE CAMEL.
Queer Things Related of the Awkward and
Foolish Animal.

According to Rev. James Gilmour,
whose long residence in Mongolia
entities him to speak upon the subject
with authority. the camel is an awl1-
ward and foolish animal. Even the
Mongols, who are awkward enough
themselves, are struck with the camels
deficiency in this regard; so much so
that they seldom reprove one for its
stupidity. "A horse knows, even an
OK is responsible; but a camel is cot
supposed to know anything. not even
good pasture when it comes to it
The camel is good beast of burden,
but a poor draught animal. 1t is made
to drag carts over the great highway
of the desert to be sure. and on smooth,
hard. level roads does well enough: but
sand or soft ground distresses it. and
for climbing steep hills or over passes
the traveller is obliged to hire oxen or
horses. Indeed some camels bred in
the plain country refuse to go over
passes on any condition. As they APP
proach a hill they have to be unloaded,
blindfolded and driven up the steep.
Splitting is one disagreeable pecu-
liarity of the camel. If You 90 close
past one in front. as he is chewing his
cud, you will hear grunt and receive
a green shower of half-maSticated vege-
table matter. Pellin camels. which are
daily among crowds of people, seem to
lose the habit. probably because if they
kept it up they would have nothing left
to swallow.
The mourning of the camel is de-
scribed as very impressive. Mr.. Gil
mour was riding at dusk down a lonely
valley. There was neither man nor
beast nor bird, nor insect even. to be
seen or heard. The shadows were thick
ening. and the silence was oppressive,
when darllly. from among the rocks to
the right, with slow and mournful
pace, advanced solitary camel.
1T seemed dispirited and weak. took
no heed of us, but slowly crossed the
open space and disappeared again
among the rocks on the left. Ever
and anon it uttered its slow and plain
tive wall, which came borne over the
darkening stiffness as our camels trod
silently up the other slope of the valley.
The scene and the sound haunts me
still. 1t was like the wailing of an
outcast spirit wandering among stony
places, seeking rest and finding none.
Cow camels make this sound when sepa-
rated from their calves. 1t is very
touching to hear it; and after listening
to it | can almost believe the Mongols
when they say that skillful fiddler
playing plaintive air can draw tears
from camels eyes. "-Youth's Com

HUMAN SACRIFICES,
They Are Still Offered in Russia as il
Ancient Times.

Ancient Times.
Very few persons are aware that hui
man sacrifices are still offered up in a
part of the Russian empire. The fact
is, nevertheless, certain. Among the
Tchuktchis such sacrifices still take
place. and seem likely to be practised
for a long time to come. At the same
time. no blame can be attached to the
Russian government or to the orthodox
church, because all efforts to stop the
practice have proved Intellectual. The
sacrifices alluded to are those of old
people and the sick. who. finding no
longer any pleasure in life, resolve to
have done with earthly existence and to
increase the number of happy spirits
The Tchuktchi who has made up his
mind to die Immediately notifies his
neighbors and near relatives. His
friends visit him and try to make him
change his mind. Prayers, reproaches,
complaints have no effect on the
fanatic. Seeing him thus resolved. his
friends go away to make the customary
preparations. At the end of from ten
to fifteen days they return to the hut
of the Tchulltchi, with white mortuary
garments and some weapons with
which, in the other world. he will fight
evil spirits or hunt the reindeer. After
making his toilet, the Tchuktchi with
draws into corner of his hut. His
nearest relative stands by his side hold
ing in his hand the instrument of sacri-
tice-a knife, pike, or a rope. If the
Yah l.,,- al q
his friends hold him under the arms,
and by the wrists. and. at given signal
the Sacriticer thrusts the knife into his
breast. If the pike has been chosen,
two of his friends hold this weapon, and
two others throw the victim on its point.
For strangulation, two of the sacrif-
GERS draw the rope tight until death
ensues, then the breast is opened to let
the blood flow out. The assistants go
to the corpse, and battle their hands
and faces in the blood. The body is
then placed on a sledge drawn by a
reindeer, and taken to the place of the
funeral. Arrived at their destination,
the Tchulltchis cut the throat of the
reindeer, take from the dead body it's
clothing. which they tear to pieces, and
then place the corpse on funeral pile.
During the process of cremation, the
assistants offer up prayers to the happy
souls in the other world, asking them
to watch over those who are yet in the
land of the living These practices,
horrible as they are, are followed in
exactly the same manner to-day as in
ancient times.-Gazette de Yakutsk
