Reeollectlons of BIsmarck.s wart,ms.


In the columns of The Kreuzzeitung
Herr Andrae, well known Conservative
politician and friend of Prince Bis
marck, gives some interesting recollec-
tidns of the period of the war of 1870.
He says: Bismarck read on the 9th of
July the speech delivered by the Duke
OF Grammont on the 9th. He was at
dinner and handed the newspaper to his
wife, with the words: THE Duke of
GrammOnt must have soon got tired Of
his office. 1 shall, of course, have to ask
for his resignation Later in the even
ing, while walking i'll the park at
Varzin and thinking Of the matter, the
idea suddenly came to him, Napoleon
wants war, and Grammont' S speech was
dictated by him.
''He went to his room, his first thought
being to telegraph to the king, at Ems,
as follows, 1T would be best to mobilize
at once, declare war and attack before
France is prepared. His nerves were
strung to the highest tension, and he
passed a sleepless night. Lying awake,
thinking, there crossed his mind the
text, Blessed are the peacemal1ers, for
they shall be called the children of God. ;
SO that won't do, he said to himself.
Then all the political consequences of
his contemplated action became clear to
him, and he ended by casting the first
message aside and telegraphing to King
William simply not to pledge himself to
anything with Benedetti, who, if he be-
came pressing, was to be told, MY min
lister of foreign affairs is at Varzin. 4"

NOT so GREEN AS 1T LOOKS.
An Intelligent Parrot Takes Revenge and
Breaks In a Marriage Engagement.

Breaks Up a Marriage Engagement.
Parrots are all right and very anus
ing unless they happen to be too in
telligent They are charming crea-
lures so long as they will repeat only
what you teach them, but when they
begin to think for themselves, and to
voice their thoughts, the matter
changes complexion and may end as
seriously as did an affair at Stamford,
this state, the other day.
One of the brightest and most at
tractive young women in that town is
the owner of an unusually precocious
parrot; incidentally, she thought a
great deal of a young farmer of the
neighborhood, SO much, in fact, that
they were betrothed But this young
farmer has always hated parrots, and
that has been the one sore point be-
tween him and his promised wife. He
has especially hated the parrot in ques-
ton, and has repeatedly warned the
young lady that the thing was not SO
green as it looked, and that it would
surely cause trouble between them.
We can easily believe that the bird,
being beloved by his mistress, was al
ways at hand during these little talks,
and it is as easy to believe that no
well-ordered, intelligent parrot would
put up long with such sighting re-
marks as the young farmer was IN the
habit of making. If memory serves
Alright, the bird did once rebuke his
mistress sweetheart, but very mildly,
! him fhinrr ~
On that occasion Polly was promptly
punished by his mistress, who snapped
his head with a piece of whalebone
and covered his cage with paper for an
entire day. This was added insult, but
nothing was to be done except wait
for an opportunity to get even. The
opportunity soon came.
A few nights ago the young farmer
entered the house of his lifes light,
and asked for the flame. She was
Drinking, but would be down in a
short time, and would Frank try TO
make friends with Polly? So Frank
turned into the room where Polly sat
on his perch munching a cracker and
grooming Jungle ditty. Extracting a
chocolate caramel from his pocket
Frank moved toward the cage. There
are tides in the affairs of men and like
wise parrots, and this bright, if green,
pet realized that the flood of his tide
had come.
Hello, young hayseed!" he shouted.
There was moment of intense
silence. Then the cage was struck
to the floor and the room was filled
with feathers and HAIR. A moment
later Polly's mistress entered the room
what is the trouble, FRANKIE"
"Some one has taught this parrot to
call me a young hayseed, answered
her lover. flushed and angry, and
will not stand it.
did you hurt poor Polly?" picking
up the manned creature"
II tried to kill the thing"
The young woman vigorously up
, braided her lover, and hurriedly slip
ping her engagement ring from hel
finger and handing it back, said:
"a man who loses his temper on sucl
, slight provocation cannot be my com
panion for life. The engagement il

Wisdom and ModestY.

The celebrated Aboo Yusuph, who
was chief cadi, or judge, of Bagdad, in
the reign of the Caliph Hadee, was a
very remarka BILE instance of that hui
mility which distinguishes true wis
dom. His sense of his own deficiencies
often led him to entertain doubts,
where men of less knowledge and
more presumption were decided. 1t is
related of this judge that, on one occa-
sion, after a very patient inveStiga'
ton of facts, he declared that his
knowledge was not competent to de-
eide upon the case before him. Pray,
do you expect" said pert courtier
who heard the declaration, that the
caliph is to pay you for your igno-
rance?" II do not" was the mild re-
ply. "The caliph pays me, and we'll
for what / do know. If he were to at
tempt to pay me for what do moi
know, the treasures of his empire
would not suffice. "-Golden Days.

the KosrRlaL sasx falURs.

The failure of the Banque du
Peuple at Montreal has particu
lar interest just now, because Of
the test it will apply to various
details of the Canadian banking
system, which has lately been
more closely studied than before
by American financiers as a pos
sible model for imitation in this
country, The failure itself is
important. Business affairs in
Canada were very much strained
by the recent period of CONNER
cial depression, but the stability
of their banking system, with its
freedom from any complication
with the public treasury, was
largely instrumental in averting
the panic that struck us in the
United States under the operation
of our silver laws. ..-.
The recovery, however, has
been so protracted that the banks
have had to carry many loans
that ought before now to have
been repaid, and it is probable
that the failure of the Peoples
Bank comes as a sequence Of past
misfortunes rather than as pre-
cursor of new. AT the same time
it is reasonably certain to be ac,
companied By other failures, and
its effect upon business north OF
the st. Lawrence Cannot be slight,
The reassuring part of it is that
no one seems to anticipate any
direct loss from the failure of the
bank. There can be no loss to
the note-holders, for Canadian
bank notes are the first lien upon
the capital and resources Of the
bank, and are entirely and abun'
dainty secured, with distinct pro-
vision for their redemption,
And the impression at Montre.
al seems to be that the depositors
also are well secured, and that any
loss from the failure will fall en-
tirely upon the stockholders ofthe
bank. This is much more than
can be said of the average failure
under our national banking sys
tenn, and for this reason the de
tailed report of the affairs Of the
Banque du Peuple will be studied
with peculiar interest.
