THE HERALD WIT AND HUMOR. - - Pope says that le:inty ."li-aw us by a single hair. It doesn't nowadays. When a beauty ,rc(s o buhl-headed that she ha? but one hair left, she doesn't draw much. When a man gets ready to swear over an apparently tough goose, and then finds the joints yield readily to the knife, he believes that "A soft an scr turncth away wrath." The new Geographical Society of Japan has just published, on a large scale, a map of the city of Yeddo. The inmes of districts, streets and the like aro inserted both in Japauese and Latin characters. When you see four or live children who need combing, washing, and patching, holding a convention on a front door-step, you have come to a house where the mother iaints pot tery. There is an unprecedented activity among steel manufacturers. They are all working overtime, and it is feared that tlie supply of metal will run short. A St. Louis girl has ordered a pair of skates. Two ladies are discussing a third, who is, of course, absent. ''She is re ally charming," says one, and, above all, she has such an air of intelligence." "Yes," answers the other, "but there are no words to that air." Never mind a man who i3 hard up, for he can work. Never mind a wom an who is dead broke, for she can get married. But think of the little dogs who haven't got any velvet blankets and who can't get employment. A gentleman accidentally steps on a daintv poodle led by an elegant wom an. "Stupid! A little more and you would have crushed Fido." "Ah! If I had crushed him I would have re placed him." "You Hatter yourself!" "Prisoner at the bur," sufd the judge "is there anything you wish to s:iy be fore sentence is passed upon you?" The prisoner looked wistfully toward the door, and remarked that ho would like to say "Good evening," if it would be agreeable to the company. "Maria," said a pious husband to his wife, "them wicked Smiths are allow ing their children to play in the yard on Sundays. To-morrow I'll set the dog on their chickens. The judgment of heaven must be visited on 'cm in some way." A young lady was taken to task for tight lacing, and she said she resorted to the practice on purely economical grounds. "How is that?" asked her reprover. "Why," she replied,"! lace -lightly simply to prevent waistful jiesa." "No," siid Talkington ; 'io, I never go to church. What does it amount to anyway? sermons and collection-. I can read be iter sermons at home, and as lor collections why, man, 'I've collections without nuinhjr, botli in prose and verse."

An old lady wearing a pair of green goggles steppe I on the Sacramento train at South Vallejoaud knocked at the car do )r,.aud actually wailed till it was opened on the inside by a pass enger. For consummate politeness this has no parallel. iMav- era A Soi iely Reform. Under the pretty title of the "Cin derella" dance, a sort of semi-ball, rig orously pledged to exhibit its linal galop on the healthy, wealthy, and wise side of midnight, gives good au gury of a return to sober hours in the habits and customs of the English. Another hopeful sign is the practice of abbreviating dinner, both by a re duction of a menu and by the aboli tion of a male sederunt running into much time and many magnums. The fashion of thus curtailing and light ening the once solemn and often dreary meal had indeed been steadily grow ing for a long time. Those heavy feasts, with their monstrous cpergnes and cojiversationalities as pompou3 and depressing as the tray of feathers that Used to be carried in frout of a funeral, are swept away to the last crumb. There remained, however, much to be done in the way of pran dial reform, even at a recent period ; and, to the joy of opera and theater managers against whose interests the late and long dinners of the last decades carried on a ruthless war, the work of continued amendment has been taken Vigorously in hand by many leaders of society, foremost being the Prince of Wales. As for the quadrille par ties named so prettily after the hero ine of the Countess d'Alnois' fairy tale, all sensible people must wish them success; and their introduction at the Mansion House i3 one of the proofs already given by Sir Francis Truscott of a determination to make his Mayoralty memorable for whole some and graceful improvements. A Buried Forest It has been recently discovered that an oak Forest lies buried in the Val ley of the Fulda, near ltosenbur-, Hesse Casscl, Germany, at a depth of from six to nine feet below the surface. The wood flourished at a very remote period. The great uumber of the trees discovered were in good preservation : but, owing to the action of the water through unnumbered ages, they have become thoroughly black in color they have become very hard and close' so that they would bo good materiai for carving and ornamental cabinet work. Some of the trees are of great size; one taken out of a gravel lv por tion of the bed opposite the village of Baumbach, and since sent to the Geo logical Museum at Berlin, was 59 feet long, nearly five feet in diameter near .he root, and about 33 inches at the op. Even larger specimens have been bund. It is reported that the furni ture and fittings of the Geological Mu seum at Marburg are to be made from this long buried timber. It ia not yet decided whether these buried oaks be long to a species still existing or to au extinct one. Andaman Island widows wear the skulls of their deceased husbands on their shoulders. At a recent lecture on ethnology at the Royal College of Surgeons in London, Prof. Flower showed the skull of an Andamanese, to which was attached an elegant webbed sling by which it had been suspeudo l to the widow's neck. Professor Is there any way to ob tain good, fruit without grafting or budding? Student Yes, sir. Pro fessor Please explain the process. Student AVatch your chanpe, and when the farmer goes to dinner, crawl over into the orchard and steal it. (trades as llilkrrs. A lercut writer suggests two very important tjiicstions, the facts in rela tion to which, and the Drincinlcs con trolling thecase, should be well under stood by all dairvmcn ami breeders of dairy stock. II is query is X Do heifers from native or scrub moihcrs, by bulls of thoroughbred milking slock, make uetler miluers than their dams; and, if so, why? Why take the qualities ot the stock Irom the sire rather than the dam? It is an indisputable fact that many native cows are superior milkers and butter-makers, and this quality is transmitted to their daughters, in some cases until a family exists of lo cal celebrity. This characteristic, however, has generally been lost in three or lour general ions lor want or care in keeping up t he regular line, or by the yearly infusion of blood ot'ba.-o or unknown quality. It is quite pos siblc that remarkable milking quail ties in an individual native cow might be perpetuated to remote descendants, and even increased by careful fceleciion of sire, and in-and-in breeding. But tli.it is the method by which thor oughbreds arc -produced, and requires skill and intelligence of a high order, and years of observation mid labor. Willi a good native cow as the basis of stock, much anxiety an 1 time may be saved, by an immediate infusion of the lixed blood of a thoroughbred of the desired type, and the result will al wnvf answer the first query in the aliliinative. The calt will be bettcr than its dam in some rc3iecls, and wor e in none. As an accident or sp-T , it is possible that the dam ii! Sit bca better milker than the ilam or Iim'cI of the sire, and the calf tak ing the type of the sire be inferior to In r. but the rule taught by experience i other wav. In this case the C'.a :i.-;c;-i.s; ic of the oll'pring arc de termined bv t! e long-known law thai t! e longer a class of animals is dev.dope i in a single lino, the greater is ihe;r transmitting power, ami witn the more certainly do l hey impress their trialilics on the offspring. The blood of the dam having no line of de scent, ami no accumulated force, is overborne b the thoroughbred sire. Theoretically, the progeny of such a connection is more than hall tnor o'jgiibred, and should develop more than half of the sire's slock qualities in milk fin ! lorni. a iicre is but little danger of reversion u original form if this method of breeding bo adhered to; but even it there were, it n un doubtedly the cheapest, quickest and surest way to develop fi xed milking qualities from native cows.

Sydney Smith to Queen Victoria- The following extract from a sermon preached by Sydney Smith to Queen Victoria on her accession to the throne is, thinks the London Truth, worthy ot recalling: "liXluigaish in yonr heart the fiendish love of military glory from which your sex does not necessarily exempt you, and to which the wickedness ot uattcrers may urge Jr'ou.
