The OuarreIsome Robin.

The robin, that ''pious" bird, is very
quarresome, and it exasperates one to
watch him wasting the precious hours
of food in hunting another hungry rob-
in up and down and round and round,
till sparrows have cleared the board.
The blackbirds, too, are very annoying,
in the way that they snatch up a lump
of bread and fly off with it. only to be
chased about for the rest Of the morn
ing by other blackbirds, while a spar
row makes a square meal off the mOrsel
fallen meanwhile under a shrub. But
relentless as they are in pursuit, the
curious fact is that they seldom fight.
If the pursued turns, the purSuer stops,
perks up his tail, and being promptly
charged by the other, becomes in his
turn the pursued. But woe to both
when the missed thrush comes. He is
pitiless in pursuit and l have seen
them pass my window time after time
in the course Of a morning the storm
cock hard on the heels of the black
bird And when they overtake them
what happens. For myself, as l have
often said before. / believe the missed
thrush is a cannibal. At any rate,
attribute some Of the dead blackbirds
and thrushes that one finds about the
grounds to his cruel beak. He watches
for birds for hours at a time,
like a bird Of prey, and attacks them
like one. I have often stopped a chase
which l knew could only end one way

For the Record Union"
THEOPHILOSOPHIC.

There are distinctions-there will always
Between religions, fanatics and creeds.
Honor to holy men, When saints | see
III kneel to praise their pious deeds;
But every pile is not a heavenly shrine,
Though tall the steeple, golden be it's
Man may be blest beneath all stars that
shine
Yet own no pew, yet pay no gifted choir
And go to heaven at last Gf heaven there
be- or higher.
Humanity is holer far than creed
Is godlier than religion-while the two
Seem separate things! One hath made
millions bleed
And cast to flames with much ado
More souls than all the sects, perchance,
may saVei
Doctrinal dogma. and the unco good,
The balderdash both priests and pastors
rave,
If earth We're heaven from here to holy
rood
Would kindle fire and faction if there's
aught that could!
Man knoweth but to pray, not how to pray,
And many men therefore pray not at all;
Others so narrowly that doubtless they
Were better silent, stand or fall.
The best plea ever offered up by man
To any being whom he deems divine,
From Christendom or darkest HindoStan,
Is his sincerest hope; not sound nor sign
Can make it potent-save the words,
Thy will, not mine"
CHARLES L. PAIGE.

, Turning from these unworthy COM
patriots of Raphael and Da Vinci to
Flemish art and its great representa-
tive born only two years later than
Guido REM Q57O, we find in Rubens a
painter much attracted by the beauty
of the physical world. There is not
trace in his paintings of Leonard's
searching Interrogation Of spiritual
things or even of RaphaeIs calm con-
temptation of delicate forms. All is
opulent, rich, alive, swept in with full
brush and the magnificent security of
knowledge. There was no attempt at
rendering the mystery of divinity-the
mystery of humanity entirely occupied
him. In our print of the very famous
Descent from the Cross" the superb
realism is shown in its graver as
pect; it is the moment preceding the
joy of the resurrection, the moment of
anguish and despair, and Rubens has
tempered his eXuberant vitality to a
singularly sympathetic rendering of the
scene, although he has conceded moth
ing in this choice of models for the
three Marys-they are the stout and
healthy women whose firm flesh and
glowing skin he rejoices to paint. Ru-
bens, with the rest, began his painting
at a very early age: AT twenty"
Fromentin says, 'he was already ripe
and a master" and in the succeeding
forty-three years of his painting life he
produced in the neighborhood of l 100
works, the most immense production
that has ever issued from one brain. -
With NJ. Maerterlinck as a dramatist
the world is we'll acquainted. His latest
volume, however, to be published short
ly in America by DOdd Mead & Co,
presents him in the character of a phil
OSOpher and an aesthetician. The
Treasure of the Humble" is as it We're,
an apology for his theater, the one
being to the other as theory to prac-
| tice. The work contains his present
ideas on a variety of bjects-Mystic
| Morality, Women, the Inner Beauty,
the Deeper Life, the Awakening of the
SOul-all approached from the view
point Of a super-sensuouS, mystical
child of the last half Of the nineteenth
century. The book proves, and more
than anything that he has written, the
NATIVE distinction of his mind, the fas-
tidiOus delicacy of his taste, his abid-
ing and his Unsuitable love of beauty.

Zebra Culture.

On several South Africa farms exper-
iments have been tried with Burchen's
zebra. The Zebras become as tame as
ponies, and are readily broken in for
draught work. The object of their tam
ers has been to breed a mule which,
like the zebra, is proof against the
tsetse fly. The Zebras themselves run
well enough in a mule team. though
they cannot stand overdriving.-The
