The trouble with our Uncle Sam

Runs through his entire system
His vitals are disorganized
- It'll health cannot enlist 'cm
Unconstitutional remedy
That will renovate and strengthen
u, the element to save his life
And his days to cheer and lengthen
There's single tax and income tax
And other poverty splltters,
But nothing else will reach the spot
Like referendum bitters.
A sort of apoplectic flush
O'erspreads our Uncle's features,
Deceiving some to think he is
The healthfullest of creatures.
But this is only surluce show
To hoodwink the unwary,
Who nurse no fears that we may
The poor old man to bury.
A bracin' tonic that will set
His stagnant nerves agoin'
Will put him on his business legs
And pay the bills that's OWN
So while the unbelieving host
In mild dersion filters
Let Aunt Columbia mix dose
OF referendum bitters.
The children take advantages
or the old man bein' weakly
!, Till Aunt Columbia's dreadful push
To bear Der trials meekly
The big ones rob the little ones
And sock 'em round like blazes.
The way them youngsters carry on
The stoutest heart amazes
AT table Some will grab aholt
OF all the meat and fritters
But reckonin' will come when
t Unc
Takes referendum bitters.
To make this sort of bltters right
Take spirits (patriotlc.)
Stir intellect and progress in
Till all becomes chaotic;
Then let the mixture stand until
The cream of reason rises,
Aud twill scatter governmental ills
In all their dark DISCUSSES.
Initiative in equal parts 81
Must be taken with the mixture,
And Unc will like the morning rise
OF health the livin' picture.

And with his sons will mingle,

There's lots of merchants failin' g..
The reason of it all is this:
That Uncle Sam is aiin

powerful Imagination of a good deal Of
its natural freedom and elan. 1t is not
that university training diverts men of
high imaginative power from practical
life, as it does the average mans taste,
but that it makes them too critical, too
self-introspective, too fastidious for the
highest purposes of intellectual life.
unless their Imagination be like Mil
tons, one born, as it WERE with a
bride already upon it, and subdued to
the stately pace of a rich and sonorous
rhythm Where the vital intuitions of
genius are the first and last character
istics of the poet, such culture as a uni
versity life bestows can add little. and
may take away much. Milton himself
truly said of Shakespeare that in him
"Fancy's child" 'warbled his native
wood-notes wild" and these wild wood
notes the stateliest of academic cages
would probably have silenced Hence
1t seems to us that with all the great
advantages of a collegiate society,
academic life is hardly we'll fitted
either to help on the punctual discharge
Of complicated practical duties or to
stimulate the higher flights Of a free,
buoyant and wayward imagination

PheaSantS and Thunder.

The effect of thunder, or the firing of
cannon, ON pheasants is very curious
either of these sounds starts the cock
bird Growing as if in defiance G. T..
Rope, writing to the "Zoologist," says
that at place between five and six
miles distant from the garrison town of
Colchester he has heard pheasants close
to him echoing each report of the ar
tillery practicing there, and has on
many occasions noticed the same thing
elsewhere. The Growing sounds more
like the answer to a challenge than the
expression of fear j. E. Harting points
out that the observation is not new.
Gilbert White remarked a century ago
that the pheasants in his neighborhood
crowed when big guns were fired at
Portsmouth and the wind was blowing
from that direction and, SAYS Mr..
Harting, Charles Waterton also, in his
Essay on Natural History makes the
following remark on the subject: THE
pheasant crows at all seasons on retir-
ing to roost. 1t repeats this call often
during the night and again at early
dawn, and frequently in the daytime,
on the appearance of an enemy, or at
the report of a gun, or during a

COTTON MANUFACTURES.
Enormous Magnitude of the English
Export Trade.

The London Times of December
18th, contains an account of an inter
view between Lord george Hamilton,
Secretary of State for India, and dele
cation of Lancashire cotton manufact-
urers who were protesting against the
imposing by the Indian Government OF
duty of per cent. on manufactured
cottons imported into India During
the discussion his lordship stated:
Great Britain is the greatest produc-
ing and exporting country in the world.
do not know if many people are aware
that, taking the returns of the last ten
years, the exports of cotton manufact-
ures alone comprise % per cent. on thu.
average of the whole total exports or
Great Britain, amounting on an aver
age to the enormous total of t6O,OOO,OOO
per year. On the other hand India is
great receiving market for cotton
goods It's population comprises one
fifth of the human race, and 1T has
taken during the past on an average
from 30 to 40 per cent. of the total cot
ton exports of Great Britain"
The controversy over the duty ques-
ton has since been settled by the Gov
ernment of India making an import tax
or duty of 31a per cent. on cotton goods
produced in both England and India.
The thing which will impress Ameri-
cans, however is the enormous magni-
tude of English cotton manufacturing
interests, the annual exports alone
amounting, as stated by Lord George
Hamilton, to f60,0O0,OU0, or $500, ,O0O,-
600 per year.-From Bulletin No 1,

University Training and Genius.

We doubt greatly whether the aca-
demic atmosphere is always the most
congenial for the development of a
strong original imagination. Would
Homer have written his great epics if
he had been to a university? Would
Burns have been the poet he was if he
had been sent early to the university
classes Of Edinburgh or Glasgow? No
doubt there are poets to whom fine uni
versity culture does nothing but good
poets like Chaucer, like Spenser, like
Tennyson, like Arnold, ike Clough
But there can be little doubt, we think
that Shakespeare would have lost more
in spontaneousness than he would have
gained in accuracy of thought if he had
gone through all the discipline of a
great university. There is certainly
kind of genius which is far freer and
fresher without the constraint which
the higher intellectual discipline i'm =
poses than it would be with it.
Undoubtedly the effect of all good
university training is to put a bride on
the imagination, and SO deprive a
