Ronavalona, OF Madagascar, for some time

of force or figure, as another colored eN-

Protestant missionaries, English and Amer

Capital under the same conditions. Now,
we are told, this colored lady and these
missionaries organized a great conspiracy

cordingly the queen has been exilcd, and
what they have done to the missionaries
is not stated, but doubtless has been ade-
Quate.

The contention over the proposed erection
OF a memorial statueof Mrs. Harriet Beecher
Stowe on the capitol grounds at Hartford
is attracting interest. Rev. Charles Stowe,
Mrs stoves son, thought the erection of
a "bronZe statue" horrible method to
use in perpetuating his mothers memory.
He regarded the whole proceeding with APP
prehension until model of the statue was
submitted Now he does not oppose its
erection, but thnksif something were done
to promote the education of Southern ne
groes it would be more appropriate. One
cannot help but admire this wish 10 ben
eft the Southern negro, and no doubt the
son is but voicing the sentiments OF the
author OF Uncle Toms Cabin" Amer
lean people are too ready to erect
statue in memory OF some deceased per-
son. is it because it takes less time and
personal supervision TO do SO? The many
thousands which are yearly appropriated
tothis end would do much in regions W here
the educational facilities are in Geplora-
bic condition. The erection of a statue
is comparatively no trouble TO any one but
the sculptor who designs it. And unless it
be correct in every detail, artistic and
proper il remains a calanitous monument,
subject to the criticism of all who view
the work.

that is what might be called truly stu

N n Forbes suspected this TO be the case

And it was not a very large rat, either

The theory advanced by Prof. Lstekker,
one OF the acknowledged authorities OF
the geographical distribution OF ami
mails, is curious one. He thinks
that the marsupial tribes originated
somewhere in Asia; that, like Noah's
three sons and their families, their three
tribes separated unknown ages ago, and
one tribe moved west to the west coast Of
Europe, becoming extinct; another crossed
Asia to the northwa ard, reaching Boring

this tribe continued their journey, it now
appears, TO South America; while as Aus
tTalia was cut off from other lands and
from the larger animals which haunt the
center or the continents, she developed her
own special fauna, and the opossum-hke
nlarsupal waxed great and became the
kangaroo. IL is q curious story, and all
the more curious because it must be spelled
out from dead rocks and dumb creatures,
without written records But il is true,
as queer things SO often are; and the small
epossum rat has revealed to scientific IN
