AbImmI iNlrlllatrni'f. Mr. George J. Hoimine lectured re cently inthoKxhlultlon Pnlnco, Dublin, on "Animal Intelligence." llin eon elusions may thus Im summed up: Animal Intelligence is, fur as It goes. Imlunlluul with htuiinti Intelli gence, tho only dllluronco being thnl animal intelligence is untiblc to elabor ate that class of abstract Ideas tho form Mion of which depends on tho faculty of speech. In Idiots, ho says, wo have a natural experiment performed for us, In which tho development of the human mind is always at somo particular stage, while tho body Is allowed to continue Us growth. An inclined pluno of humiin intelligence can thus Wo obtained by arranging Idiot in a descending grade; and comparing this piano with that of animal intelligence, it Is found that It nitis suggestively parallel. Man, accord ingtoMr. Itomuncs, dl Iters from tho lower animals in being nblo to apeak.

Tke !. er.flldlnM. Capt R. V. lturton, in a number of paper, has boon Imparting to tho mem bers of the Hritlsh Association a great deal of Information about Midlan, gleaned during his lato explorations, lo has much faith in the future prosper ity of that land, through tho develop ment of tho rich mineral rotoitrccs of it region IKK) miles in length and of cipial depth. ftoth Kgypt nnd Mldlim passed throuh primitive singes of civilization like other countries, nnd of this there wan abundant evidence in tho Hint and other early Implements discovered. Ho described nn Interesting specimen of the art of the ancient counterfeiters a tetradrachmon, found near tho chief city of Midlan. It had tho impression of the owl and tho (lower, but instead of being made of silver, it had only a coating of that metal over copper. Tho tribes now inhabiting Midlan am mixed and comparatively modern; they press the heads of children after birth, beven days after tho bhtli of a boy a feast is given, but no subh rejoicing Is manifested in the enso of n girl. Tat tooing is customary. Longov ity Is rare, because of the Incessant fatigue of their mode of life, tho want of Niilliciciil nour ishment, nnd their aversion to cleanli ness. Although they will ranko. groa. HacritJcos for each other, they aro ttusuirinus, pugnacious, and revengeful. They do not fast as required by tho Koran, bccuu.se they uiny bo said to fast all the rear round. Their quarrel some disposition does not arise from intoxication, beenuso they huvo no liquors to drink. Those who live on the coast tish for pearl and black coral. As among all primitive peoples, murder in considered a private, not a public, wrong, and tho price of a man's blood is about )eMX). They have no litera ture. Ltk "im theBrTght Side. And yet how fortunate it is that wo do not and cannot take to heart the sor row and evil of tho world, but can Xnd the air sweet, tho .skies benignant, tho green earth beautiful, andiind pleas ures in tho speech of friendship and tho eyes of beauty, tho prattle of chil dren and tho high thoughts of poets and philosophers despite our con ciousness that crime reveals, and, more pitiful still, that want pinches and pois on, it "nay be scarce a stone's-throw off! If this wore not mi the hope that the world will ever bu better would be vain. It is in the natural happiness thnt does bless homos and workshops and the fields that the opportunity and dis position spring for the correction of wtoics and the elevation of lifo. The sodal reformer who begins with tho desperate assurance that everything is going to tho devil will never rise him self or raise hi fellows to anything clearer than destruction and disorder.

Illnslons of Childhood. Whoever wi-hed to correct the illu sions of childhood ? All of n ran look bock to a titno when wo believed vlv Idly that our own parent were perfect, and believed dimly that the whole grown-up world was perfect. The child knows, Indeed, that there are bad people in the world, but they have noth ing to do with the world in which he and his companions dwell, and when he thinks about them ho is puzzled how to find room forthem. We have heard of a child m moderate that he only produced two perfect men besides hl father to confute the doctrine of orig inal sin (women evidently being not included in its scope) but most of u. would huvo brought forward a much larger body of witnesses nn his niile. Now, no one would say that jou gave a child a truer view of his lather and mother if voti made him understand that they were two very faulty being-;, with as much to repent of as tho naughtiest of his playfellows. It is not that truth had better be sacrificed to love; we do .sometimes feel that of these illusions in later life, and any one who will put the twowtatcsof mind side by side will at onco see the differ ence. It is that tho illusion is actually a truer feeling than any you could sub stitute for it. It is the natural, he.ilth fulconditionnf themindof a child, tho one which put.s him into his place with rcg.ird to IiIh elders, which rnables them to il( their part toward them. It bears every test of truth, except that of being Independent of po-ltion. It is the truth for a particular .tage of development. -j Y'n Sifftntof. Ourf.uluVs Story "You think a snuko has no mind of his own?" said our guide who delight ed in a joke -through the Bluu Ridge Inst summer. "You're nils-taken. A black snake now keeps up a lot of thinking,and likes his joke. Hu's a con strictor, you know, and ho knows as well as you do ho can't hurt a Ilea by striking. "When the Yankee army was ipiar tered along hvnr, before the s' render, thor wasaipiartcr-master a New York fellow who was powerful afraid of snakes. 0mln' down yon hill with him one day, we passed a black racer full six feet" long, Uikin' his ecso under a log. "The nature of that snake is to run of you look at him, but he watched the Yank, and I knowed by his evo that he knowed it was a Yank, and he meant to have his bit of fun out of him! He gave the fellow chase, sir. He did! Seldom hoard of seel, a thing afore! Down tho mouniing went the quarter master, yelling like mad, and after him went the snake, his howl straight up, lookin1 frightful enough. When he gained on tho man, he sprang on him, strikin' him on the neck procloely as if ho had fangs. Plnytn' rattlesnake, yer see. Four times 'he did it, hiUin' the fat fellow sharp in the neck, and then the Yank fell flat. " 'I'm a dead manT says he. "If you'll believe me, that bluot crit ter went off alow and cool, and wagged his tall as he went. He wa H'ccih,yer see, and he'd hint his joke."
