THE CHICAGO TRIBUNE: SUNDAY, DECEMBER 2, 188U—SIXTEEN PAGES of the executioner, leaving_ such marks MUSIC. Christmas-Music in the Chi- cago Churches. The’ Mapleson Grand-Opera Season in Boston. Concert and Operatic News at Home and Abroad. ‘The cast of the operatic version of “Cin- erella,” which will occupy the boards at the Grand Opera-House every afternoon and evening this week, contains the names of singing artists who have at different times appeared in Chicago with much success. They are the Misses Annie Shaffer, Lizzie Kelsey, and Elma Dolaro, and Messrs. Mark Smith, Ed Connell, and W. 11. Seymour. ‘Mrs. Jessie Bartlett Davis will not sing with Plymouth Church choir next year. Her contract with that church expires to-day. She will eing at both morning and evening service a hymu set to the music of Gounod’s “Ring on, Sweet Angelus.” Mrs. Davis will give her attention to the study of opera and oratofio, and will appear in concert only for the present. Mr. Emil Liebling’s first concert will take place at Fairbank Hall Jan. 11 Jessie Baitlett Davis, Ada Somers Mc Wade, and the Chicago Chickering Quartet, go to Iowa City to give a popular concert on the evening of Jan % This concert- company, which includes, besides the Iadies named, Messrs, Knorr, McWade, and Noble, of the old Church Choir Pinafore Company, seem to create a sensation in musical circles wherever they appear. The other members are Charles 1. Clark and Frank T. Baird, respectively tenor and organist of the Third Presbyterian Chureh. Their engagements are made through Mr. William J. Davis, of the Grand Overa-louse., The program for the Turner-Hall concert this afternoon will be as follows: March, “ Nodish Colors" Overture, * Huncarian Ce Selection, *Fiedermaus”.

Miss Annie Norton, who came prominently before the American public in connection with the late Cincinnatl usical Festival, is recognized as being the chief vocal representative of Mr. Thomas’ method as introduced in the Cincinnati Mu- sical College, and her success is a matter of record. Both she and Miss Cranch appeared Jast night In the festival-chorus Christmas rformance of “The Messiah” given in tincinnati under Mr. Thomas’ direction in the big Musie-Hall. The other débutant in the Apolfo Club concert next Tuesday night is Mr. Alfred Hill, who is also a graduate of the Cincinnati Musical College, and of whom Mr. George Ward Nichils writesqto Mr. Car- penter as follows: Mr. Alfred Hill, who is to sing the bass pact of the “ Messiah,” is a singer of established reputa- tion in Cincinnati, where he has been a student ‘of the College of Music, and has for several seasons past filled important parts in the music of the oratoria in the Theodore Thomas serics of concerts. He gained special praise and repu- tation by his admirable rendering of the colo and concerted parts of Bach's cantata, “My Spirit Was in Heaven,” which was given by 1 Gollexe of Music with the Thomas orchestra during last year. Mr. Hill's voice is of unex- ceptionally fine quality, the tone is full, sweet, end fine, it has plenty of volume, and of large range, with facility of execution and a correct method which does credit to his taste and traln- ing. Mr. Hillisa lawyer by profession, but has fivengerest deal of attention to music, and a high reputation in Cincionati. The last choral reneavsal of the oratoria will be given inthe large auditoriuin of the Central Music-Hall to-morrow (Monday) night, with the organ. This grand rehearsal has been specially arranged to permit the associated members to attend, which they are invited to do without further announce- ment, In order to gain admission 1o the hall it will be necessary to show the asso- ciate. niembership Heke * fie ee The ehearsal W wholly informal, no seats being reserved.

Mile. Marie Vanzandt has been offered the part of Fortunto in “ Le Chanson de For- tunlo,” but her mother will not consent to her appearing in operetta, so M. Carvalho has abandoned all [dea of reviving that lovely lit; tle work, perhaps the most delicately finished of all Otfenbach's productions. The date fixed for the first performance in London of “fhe Martyr of Antioch” is Dec. MM, when the “sacred drama ” will be _con- ducted at the Crystal Palace by Mr, Arthur Sulltvait in ets ar Osguodl ne ee retained to sing the whole o! ie soprant musie, including that “‘ereatea”? at Leeds by Mme. Albani. Mme. Giovanni Zacchi, a new dramatic rima donna, has met with decided favor in London, Her performance in ‘Luerezia Borgia” is kindly spoken of, on the whole, and it seems likely that she will restore to the stage several operas which have not been heard inthe English metropolis since the death of Mile. Titiens. Herr Wagner has at last found a man will- ing to give practical evidence of his appre ciation of the great maestro, King Louis of Bavaria has decided to build npon Lovely Istand, in the Lake of [errerchiei, a theatre which will oceupy the site of a huge brew- ery, now in course of demolition, which was itself some years ago built upon the founda- tions of the Chiemsee Cathedral, from which ne former Bishops of that diocese took their title. At the Opera Comique, Paris, “ Les Contes @Hoifman,” the favorit work of the la- mented Offenbach, is in active rehearsal. The prima donna, ‘Mile. Isaac, isto sustain therein fourdifferent characters, one of them being that of a singing doll, and she is study- ing earefully tne peculiar jerky mechanical movements of an automaton. This scene is taken from the same one of Moffman’s tales on which the charming ballet of “Coppelia ” is founded. The Paris Figaro says that at Patti’s fare- well performan¢e‘at the Royal Opera in Ber- Jin the Einperor of Germany went down on the stage to compliment the great singer. After having praised her very warmly, the | Emperor asked her how long she expected to stay in America, Patti replied that her trip would fast two years. “Two years!” said the Emperor, “that isa great while at my age; andin thanking you once more I am probably bidding you good-by for the last time.” Lucey H. Hooper writes from Paris that “ Patti is positively and undoubtedly -going to the United States next autumn, to remain two years. The contract is signed and all arrangements are made. The company that she is to take with her is not yet made up, but Nicolini will undoubtedly be the leading tenor.” This is putting it pretty strong, but the statement has been made and denied so many times that nobody will feel sure of her till she comes. And when she does she had better leave her venerable and good for noth- ing tenor behind; he isn’t-needed here. The Blanche Roosevelt English opera company is now hard at work upon “fhe Musque of Pandora,” the spectacular opera based upon Longfellow’s beautiful poem, for which Alfred Cellier has composed the music, and which is to be brought out for the first time at the Boston Theatre on the Monday following the Maplesan opera season, Jan. 16. The scenery is to be completely new, and 1s now in preparation by Mr. Getz, of the Boston Theatre. The costumes have been ordered of Eaves, of New York, and the opera will be supervised-by Mr. Bolton Rowe. The following names in the cast have already been decided upon: Pandora, Miss Blanche Roosevelt, soprano; Charlotte Ilutchins, contralto; Epimetheus, Mr. Hugh Talbot; Hephaestus, W.S.

How Certain Honsehold Articles May Prove Very Dangerous—Antidotes that Should Bo Used. 5 New York Times. In the household occasional accidents oc- eur, generally of a harmless character, butas theysometimes are ofa certain gravity, we refer to aclever little book, entitled “ Whatto Do First,” written by C. W. Dulles, and pub- lished by Blackiston, of Philadelphia, which contains in a small space a great deal which is useful to know in certain emergen- cies. Now, as there are copper boilers at- tached to ranges in many _ kitchens, the use of oxalic acid to scour them with is quite common. Occasionally we hear of ac- eidents arising from carlesness, when oxalic acid has been left about. The writer of this uses oxalic acid in her own kitchen, butwith great precaution. The bottle containing it is never Ziven to the cook, but only asmall rtion of its contents, and whenever it has een used the servant is asked “if all of it has been employed.” If any remains over it is thrown away. It is the most stupid of drug clerks that confounds oxalic acid witn epsom salts. The acid, as 4.

The cases of its accidental use must be of rareoccurrence, asits peculiar strong odor makes it recog- nizable at once. Still, cases of its having been taken in the dark are not uncommon. it is a most dangerous poison, because, as Dr. Dulles states, it seems after the first paintul corrosive effects ‘to benumb -the stomach.” At once large and repeated doses of ofl or milk should be given. Certain cases of poisoning with car- bolic acid have been —_success- fully treated, after oil had been taken, by stimulation. But itis a dangerous acid. and care should be tuken with the bottle containing it. Corrosive sublimate is often employed about a house to rid a bed of vei- min, As itis colorless when in sulution, it often escapes notice. “If taken, vomiting nnust be provoked, and some forin of tannic acid given.” Tea is thestrongest thing which iseasy at hand, anda powerful decoction should be at once administered. Adults rarely meddle with phosphorus, but children sometimes suck this very deadly substance from matches. Very fortunately, itis dis- covered by its odor in the child’s breath, and its action is not rapid.“ Five grain doses of sulphate of copper dissolved in water may be given at intervals often minutes until yoinit- ing comes on. Then a dose of magnesia should | pe administered, but no oil.” Mistakes as to quantity of opium prepa tions are by no means uncommon accidents Such are to be found, most unfortunately, in what Dr, Dulles very properly calis “the many polsonous nostrums sold as soothing sirups, pain destroyers, and drops for in- fants.” ‘There is no expression harsh enough which would serve to brand the woman who administers such poison to her baby. A mother who gives such substances to her child without a doctor’s advice takes the chances of life or death in her own hands. To such,* capable’ ot seeing their children waste away before their eyes, no advice would be of avail. We address, the; those who, unfortunately, may give laud: “The anum or black drop for paregoric. symptoms are deep sleep, with nar- rowing of the pupil of the eye to a_ small eirel which does notenlargein the dark.” Dr. Dulles ad- vises the immediate and persistent use of emetics, and to allow the patient to vomit over and over again. Particular attention should be paid to the breathing. “So long as the breathing does not fall below ten to the no immediate danger of a dangerous poison, and that can be obtained wo erly, une custom was to jown, aud to “What bation to Herines, Miss |° Do First”? deprecates this, for the rea- son that it exhausts the patient, who, if yery ij], cannot rally. If physival stimulant is to by used, lay the patient on u bed or lounge and slap with the back of a hairbrush or with a slipper. “This is all the nursing necessary So long as breathing keeps above ten toa minute. Should it fall below this, or if the breathing should cease, artificial perspiration should be employed.” It some- times happens that a child gets, through accident, an overdose of wine or brandy.’ We have known of a little girl made dangerously ill from having pur- loingd brandied fruit, It was a case of stu- por. The cure was inade by means of “ What to Do First” advices, ‘hartshorn and water, B teaspoonful of the first in a teacupful o: water.’ The use of tainted food, such as of decayed meat or vegetables, sometimes oc- curs. The treatment is to~excite vomiting, and to follow this with a dose of castor il and powdered charcoal. ‘Mothers are very careful, but the most pru! dent of them, in the experience of the writer of this, have sometimes made wistakes in the medicines they have given their children. One infatlible rule in ‘using any powder or fluid, no matter what it is, is never to take it up, much lessto administer it in the dark. What is the use of having labels marked “Poison pasted on a bottle if it be invisible inthe dark? A bottle of medicine may: Te- main in one position for weeks untouched, butan hour before itis used somebody or other may have inadvertently substituted something else. If medicines were always locked up less accidents would occur.’There isone word of final advice to be given: On the east suspicion of poisoning in a house send at once for the doctor, not necessarily your own, butthe very nearest at Hand. The question is often asked in a case of poison- ing us to the simplest way to provoke vomit- ing. Lukewarm water in quantity is good, se But itis betterto add a teaspoonful of ground mustard, or a teaspoonful of Ypecac, or a tablespoonful of the sirup of ipecac. Further, let it be remgmbered that there IS uo occasion for faslidiousness. Any water will do. Water in which hands, or dishes, for that matter, have been washed acts more quickly than anything else, and if soap has been used it will be all the better for that, as soap is an antidote for acid poisons. ‘The quantity used must be large; the sufferer must be urged to drink a pint ata time, until he can contain no more, and has been made to vomit over and over again.” ENGLAND’S ROYAL PLATE. A Peep into the Qucen’s Pantry at Windsor. Lemilon Queen, The yeoman of the pantry. at Windsor Castle, with obliging civility points out every special piece of workmanship, though, in- aeed, to most of them, a clearly-written notice supplies all the information needed. Acursory glance round the larger of the rooms shows several complete dinner’ serv ices of gold plate, made at different periods, for successive sovereigns. One of the most massive is that made for the coronation of George II (1ivl). A most beautiful collec- tion is entitled her Majesty’s breakfast serv- ice, and isin daily use. A stand of nearly three feet hign supports a small kettle. used in the sovereign’s toilet. A christening font, made for the baptism of His Royal High- ness the Crown Prince of. Peuscio, and used upon ail succeeding occasions of Koyal chris- tenings, stands alone, and is a beautiful spec- imen of goldsmith’s work of the present century. It is of no great dimensions, and is enriched with a border of water-lilies and their foliage in bold design. ‘The centre pieces, which adorn the Royal tables at state parties, are of every possible design,—the plateaux of every size, and most of them highly-finished productions of art. A centre-piece, much to be admired, de- signed, we believe, by the Prince Consort, has life-like representations of her Majesty’s dogs. The only trophy from the turf is a cup won at the Lincoln races by Ficeur-de- Lys, a hofse belonging to George IV. Inthe centre of the stall rooms, devoted equally to the care of gold plate, there is an enormous piece of work in silver and gold, made dur- ing the present sovereign’s reign. It is en- titled “An Eau de Cologne Fountain,” and stands some feet from the ground under a large glass case. It represents in the centre 8 portion of the Alhambra, while around it are exquisitly-modeled groups of figures, horses and dogs, and around the base fiainingoes and other birds are produced In life-like perfection. There are tankards and cups of everyshape and size, anda few of these deserve a very special notice from their historical interest. Among these a tankard, presented to the Prince of Wales on his coming of age in 1863, was made from Spanish dollarstaken at the surrender of Hayana in 173. An- other is completely covered with the coins of the realm which were current from 1605 to 1730, and are curious relies, though inferior in shape and beauty to others. In small cases are laid out sets of various articles pre- sented at different times to members of the Royal family on their birthdays. A case of pepper, mustard, and Salt-boxes bears the inseription: ‘‘ Presented by Princess Eliza- beth to Prince Regent, 1818,” Of old church- plate there is- but little in the Royal collec- tion; what there is bears the mark of Queen Anne’s_ reign, and is chiefly remarkable for its plainness and simplicity of, shape. Flagons, chalice, patons, and candlesticks are of the same date, and are placed in the private chapel of the Castle when It is in use suring. Her Majesty’s stay. Among the most beautiful designs are some exquisit tankards by Flaxman, the beauty of which is recognized at once as the great artist’s worl A covered bowl with double handles is jointed out as having belonged to Napoleon , and was part of the service found in his carriage after the battle of Waterloo. We scarcely realize to what extent the luxury of some of our earlier sovereigns extended, til! noticing some beautiful stands of at least two feetin hight, and asking their use we are told that they are fire-dogs, and bear the date of Charles If, 1680; and in close proximity is another article of great interest,—a pair of bellows mounted in gold, which belonged ‘to Nell Gwynne. A massive toilet-service, used by her Majesty, was made for Queen Mary IL, 1688, and consists of a large mirror, @x- quisitly chased, and boxes of various sizes and shapes, well fitted fora monarch’s use. Among other articles of Queen Mary IL’s relgn are another pair of fire-dogs, and in- numerable candlesticks, salt-cellars, ete. ; but one of the most noticeable is a small spice- box used by William and Mary. Seeking the earliest dates, among the collection are a pair_of tankards indisputably the work of Benvenuto Cellini, and a marvelous piece of the same master-hand in 2 cup formed by a large nautilus shell, the golden lid surrounded by the figure of Jup- iter, and enriched with fine chased work around the shell, its stem and base. On the same shelf stands another tankard, dated 1542, and called the Henry VILL. tankard, for on its side the figure of the monarch is seen in bold relict. : Acurious high flagon of Spanish work- manship was found on board the Admiral’s stip when taken in the Spanish Armada, and no doubt was presented to Queen Eliza- beth after the great victory. Some curious tankards of beautifully carved ivory, set in goid, are in the collection, bearing the mark of 1536, An ancient piece of foreign work- manship has great historical interest, as it is tecorded that this tankard was Bepsented by the Queen of Sweden to Charles XI, on the birth of Charles XIL, from whom it was taken at the battle of Pultowa by Peter the Great, who presented it to his favorit physi- cian, and after passing through many hands, it at lust beeame the property of Mr. ‘Vernon (the great collector of the Ver- non fallery), who presented it to King Will- jam IV. Some enormous shields hang near these cu ps, representing ‘Scripture histories, ancient Greek fabies or mythological stories. A high cup of peculiar workmanship is the one presented to Charles L by. the Principals of the University of Oxford, when the held his Parliament there in i164, and it would appear that tnis cup was very closely copied at a later period, for one very similar to it dates from Charies U.’s reign. A large rosewater-dish belonged to Eliza- beth, Queen of Bohemia, and was a present from her father, James I. ‘These dishes are stillin use at great court feasts, when the dish, full of rosewater, is handed’ round to the guests to dip their fingers in. A cup, commemorative of the victories of the Pris- sian army, 1813-1814, presented by Frederick William LIL to. the Prince Regent, has the Iron Cross of Valor inserted in the lid. The anointing spoons which were used at the cor- onation of George LV. lie in a case, and are enriched with diamonds and other precious stones on the handle: $< A Great Cotton Fair to Bo Held. Baitimors Sun. The great cotton fair which is to be held in Atlanta, Ga.,in September, October, and Novem- berof next year, promises to be an important exhibition. Permanent organization has been elfected under the name of the Internadonal Cotton Exposition Company, of which Senator Joseph E. Brown bas been chosen President, with a representative Board of Directors. It is Proposed to raise quite a lurge fund,so as to | make the exhibition a notable Siaplay not only of raw products, but of machinery 2130, and of manufactured fabrics of every sort. ‘The En annex is expected to be a very prominent ure of tho fair, the British cotion manufueturc being desirous to show tho excellence of their fabrica in competition with those made in thiat country. If tho Atlanta fair should succeed, its leading features will be reproduced at the New York exhibition in 1833. The attempt willbe made to get a charter for the exposition from Congress, The South needs improved machinery for pick- ing and securing the cotton crop, and It Is ex- preies that the coming exhibition will encourage Inventors and machinists to try their ingenuity in this direction. ARMIES OF KANGAROOS. How They Overrun the Immense Sheep Ranges of Australla, International Revtew, ‘The size of Australian “runs” of course varies greatly, and they are naturally much larger in the more unsettled districts and in the far-back country. A lease can nowhere, I believe, be obtained for less than twenty- five square miles, and I have myself been on one run in Queensland which claimed over two thousand square miles; this, however, was of course not fenced in, and a large part of it was absolutely worthless scrub-land. The ordinary area seemed to vary froim one hundred and fifty to six hundred square miles, and the number of sheep from ten thousand to two hundred thousand in fair seasons—numbers, however, liable to great reductions and occasionally almost to extinc- tion in years of drought. aes At first an investment in a “run” is nearly miich of a speculation as an investinent inamine. ‘There is, however, this rather ini- portant difference later on, that if a man (supposing vf course that he has invested with ordinary judgment) Is able somehow, with the aid of the banks or of reserved cap- ital of hisown to tide overa few bad sea- sons, should those ensue, he is certain event- ually to pull things together, since the good times which must recur in the pastoral ovcu- pations seem always not only to compznsate for the bad seasons, but to carry over a hand- some balance to boot. -The squatter, how- ever, is always Hable to runs of terribly bad luck, arising from circumstances ever which he has no control, ‘The most ordinary of these are successive seasons of drought, and periods of depression in the wool and meat markets; but, in uddition, he is also liable to heavy losses from bush-fires, which ean never be entirely prevented, and also over vast tracts of country he may suffer from a cause which, till I Nad myself witnessed it in oper- ation, Lhad never suspected could have de- yeloped into so serious a drawback, As a mutter of fact, a man may travel over an immense distance, not only in settled dis- tricts but in the far-back bush, and rarely see anything larger than the litle bush walla- bies Halmaturus Bennetti and other species —and not always these, as the sufferings and deaths from hunger of so many of the early settlers and explosers suiliciently prove. ‘The kangaroo is yet tar enough from ex- tinetion in the bush, and not unfrequently appears in such nuinbers as to become a pus- itive pest, and in some instances the cause of serious losses to the squatter, In the dis- trict in which we were staying these animals and the wallabies had lately appeared in such vast hordes over thousinds of square miles, and were consuming such quantities of grass that the owners and managers of the stations on which they had forced their un- welcome presence, dreading a dearth of feed for their stock similar to produced by a drought, were at their wits’ end rid themselves of the nuisance. I speak of the animals “appearing,” because that is the only word applicable tothecase. The gentleman with whom we were staying, as also others with whom I spoke, said that thoy had not multiplied in @ district in the ordinary course of nature, but that they had come down suddenly like aswarm of locusts, There had always been acertain number about, but not enous to affect appreciably the feed; then suddenly their numbers began rapidly to increase, and in a short time had swollen so as to make it evident that either the sheep or the kan- garovus uiust be driven out, since there was not enough grass for both. The general theory was that they wero moving down from other districts further back, driven forward by scarcity of food on their old camping grounds; yet there was notany direct proof of such a misration, which would be dou®tliess the more diflicult to ascertain, a3 I never heard that they moved in herds Hke butfalocs, antelopes, or other game. {[f such migrations occur, as they doubtless do, each.one must slip awa: from his old run on his own account, though most of them doubtless arrive at the conclu- sion that it is desirable to move about the same time. ‘Their numbers seemed to be incalculable; it was impossible to ride inany direction in the paddocks without coming on a mob of kangaroos of all ages, from the old man, pater familias, down to the little ‘pouch- ers,” the infants in arms, as itywere, with their heads hanging out of their mother’s ouch, contentedly nibbling their firs} grass nl happy ignorance ef the wrath they were arousing in human breasts, while the great blocks of scrub scattered over the open downs were literally allve with wallabies, and the ground inside, and for some distance around, was eaten as bare of grass asaturnpixe road. Atall the, stations active measures were being taken to destroy them; poison, which was necessarily out of the question in the paddocks, was tried in the scrubs, but the wallabies did notseei to take it. “‘Yard- ing,” that is, erecting large inclosures and then driving the animals in by a grand hunt, was voted too expensive. Soatlast the squatters and hunters fell back on persistent hunting and shooting in the ordinary way. Our host employed three or four sets of men to hunt in couples, pay- ing them at first one sulliing: a tail for kanga- roos and sixpence for wallabies; afterward sixpence atailall round; and out of this money the two men, with whom we took our sport, supported a cook at twenty shillings a week and rations, eight horses, and fifteen or sixteen dogs, besides guns, powder, shot, etc.; the horses, however, being grass-fed. on kangaroo meat, cost and the dogs. living, 2 nothing to keep. Up tothe time of our ar- rival 4,000 tails had been paid for, and on a neighboring run, where the manager was employing a tribe of blacks, nearly 20,000 had been destroyed; and yet their numbers seemed to be still increasing, and in fact were g0, since twelve months later we learned that it had been necessary to remove the greater number of the sheep to save them from star- vation. However, it is an ill wind that blows nobody any good; and, serious as were the consequences of this eruption of marsupials to the squatter, their presence was a source of great interest and some smusement in hunting to us. Bforning after morning we started off with the hunters to procure tails. ‘Leaving camp about 7a, m., accompanied by five or six fairly bred greyhounds—the lighter and swifter the better, a3 their work was only to ‘bail up” the animal, and not to pull him down—we entered a paddock, any one would do, and rode straight tor the nearest “mob,” whose heads and the upper parts of their bodies occasionally showed above the jong grass as they sat up to look around. Attwo hundred yards or so the usually bezan to move away, and Sminedi- ately the dogs were set on, and the chase started. ‘he hounds pleased themselves, and each man, if possible; followed a differ- ent animal, to which one or more dogs had attached themseives; then ensued a short, hard gallop at ‘topmost speed, usually over good, open ground, but sometimes among trees and fallen branches, the chase seldom lasting over five or six minutes, by which time the quarry had either leaped the wire fence into the next paddock, or escaped into the scrub, in either of which cases, the horses being unable to follow, the chase was up; or else, failing thus to .attain security, the animal was overtaken by the dogs, and, asthe Australian phrase is, * bailed up,”— that is, brought to bay. Directly it found itself being overtaken, the kan- garoo would turn, and, sitting well up on tail and hind legs, show good fight under such circumstances. A “flyer,” or young one, by far the most difficult to catch, was immediately run into by the dogs, and bowled over before the rider could come but an old female, and still more an up; “old man” fhe slowest jumper of all), were much more formidable opponents; and the dogs, most of then taught by bitter expe- rience of the terrible hind legs and jong, sharp middle toe-nail, contented themselves with barking around him till the hunter ap- peared. the “old man” in the meantime dancing around on his three points of sup- port and endeavoring to seize the nearest of his persceutors. Woe to the (log so seized! ‘The Kangaroo grasps him with his arms or forelegs, holds him up in a convenient posi- tion, and then with all the force he can mus- ter kicks forward at him, and with his long tue-nail inflicts terrible wound, not unfre- quently ripping the wretched hound right open. The men with whom we were, to be prepared against such einergencies, and against the still greater danger to the dogs when the animalis struggling on the ground and lashing out all around with his powerful bind legs, always carried salve and noedles and thread with them to sew up @ wound on the spot. 2 i The hunter, directly he reaches the scene, springs off his horse, and warily approach the kuigargo, while the animal’s attention is distracted by the dogs, deals him a blow on the side of tho bead with a short stick or “waddy,” which fells him to the ground, when the happy dispatch is soon adminis- tered. There is of course no serious danger tu the man, but unless he is cautious he stands a vod chance of being badly scratched, if not worse; asan “old man” kangaroo will not hesitate fo assail him if he gets achance when at bay; and if the rider approach on horseback, the kangaroo will frequently spring at him, as has happened to ine, and endeavor to seize him in the saddle. Hunting thus from 7 till 9 or 10 o’clock a. mm., by which time the day began to grow too hot and horse and dogs alike were done up, we could generally kill fourteen to sixteen kan- Raroos 208 a bad bag for three hours or jess. This sort of sport, though amusing and even exciting at first, like buffalo hunting on the prairies, soon palls on one; there is too much slaughter and too little skill,—in fact, none at all, only hard riding and rough exer- cise, Nevertheless, itis not to be despised in its way, especially ina country that atfords so little real sport as Anstralia does; and there is also much amusement, at any rate while one Is fresh to the work, in watching the animals run, or rather bound; their enor- mous jumps, always taken in the upright position, seem to increase at every leap, while the speed they attain by this singular mode of progression is wonderful. ‘The “old men,” being big and heavy, were soon over- taken; but the “flyers” and females, for a short run, invariably outstripped our swift- est dogs, though they were selected for speed, the heavier type of kangaroo-hound being purposely disearded for regular prey- hounds, After finishing their morning hunt, the men retired to camp, dined, fed their dogs, turned the horses loose, and rested till the afternoon, when they again sailed forth, this time on foot and armed with guns, to shoot wallabies in the scrub till evening. The Intter amusement we tried also, but, like hare-shooting at home, it soon palled. Yet. ou the whole, I thought that a man might do worse than earn his wages as a kangarvo hunter in Australia, A “NATIONAL RAZOR.” History and Description of a Doctor's Deadly Contrivance—ikow It Does Its Deadly Work~Some Momorable Vic- tims, Edinburg Seotsman. The adoption of the guillotine was pro- claimed in France, March, 1792, and the first execution by the new machine took place om the following 25th of April, the subject bemg a highway robber, and the little affair passed off quite satisfactorily, too satisfactory, in- deed, for the revolution fell in love with the smooth-working headchopper, and fron: the ath ot April, 1793, to the 2th of July, 1794 (10 Thermidor, Anno 11), executionsto the awful number of 2,625 tuok place. Tho “mill of silence” ground out its bloody grist, morn- ing, noon, and night; the “national razor” shaved rich and poor alike freely, and the guillotine wasmade a godddess of the revolu- tion. In the reproduction of an old French journal (Les Revolutions de Paris, Sept. 5, 1792), it is recounted that in several hotels of Paris the aristocrats, who saw themselves doomed, killed time by having alittle mahognay gulllotine brought ta ‘the table at dessert. "Little dolis, made to represent the chief magistrates, were then beheaded, and when the head was off a red, perfumed liquid issued from the body,—a bottle,—into which al! dipped their finest handkerchiefs. ‘Though at firstthere was some attempt made to connect the name of Dr. Lonis with his machine, .and it was dubbed Mlle. Louise by many, the unpleasant association of Dr, Guilloti’s name with the frightful toy gradually became universal. The Assembly- man was seized with.n profound chagrin when he saw to what a horriblo use the machine, which he had advocated through motives of humanity, was put. During the reign of terror he was himself imprisoned a3 a senoeete but was liberated at the fall of Robesy! e. Dr. Guillotin has written an autobiography, but it is a significant fact that of the machine which bears his name not a word is men- tionea, sc odious has the name become to him. Oue would think the descriptions of the manner in which the executions are con- ducted in France would be ready at band, and so they are, only it is the patient, and not the instrument, that receives the writer’s attention. At last. after long search, a mi- vute and careful description of the national machine was found in a comparatively old number of the Revue des Deux Sfondes, frow the pen of M. Maxime du Camp. From that jlescription the following condensed translation is made: The scaffold, says Du Camp, is nearly square, heing four metres by three metres eighty centimetres, raised from the ground two metres by four posts, and surrounded with a railing. ‘Che posts are now done away with, and the scaffold lies on a level, with the ground. At two-thirds of its length © rise the parallel posts, four metres high and thirty-seven centimetres apart, connected by across-piece called the cap, To the cap is tixed the knife, composed of @ triangular blade of steel, sharp as a razor, and riveted toa heavy leaden rack, like the rammer of a pile-driver. The ramumner is thirty-five centi- metres long; the blade thirty. At the hight of one metre from the floor of the scutfold two planks are set between the uprights, each to have a semi-circular opening. The bottom plank is fixed, but the upper onc slides in grooves Into the uprights in such a manner that when the two come together a | lunet or full-mdon is formed. Between the uprights and the entrance to the scatfold is found a baseule,—a narrow plank directly in face of the circular opening and balanced in the iniddle in see-saw fashion. In repose la baseule is upright, but a single gesture of ropulsion throws it‘forward and horizontal. n descending it falls on a solid table which reaches clear up to the planks of tlie lunet, and, being fitted with rollers, runs very rapidly with these on the table in the direc- tion of the Junet. At the right of the table, and held to it by hinges, an inclined plane isso arranged as to have its side rest upon tho edge of an enormous willow basket, lined with zine and half filled with bran. Below thelunet, on the bascule side, lies an ob- long trough, while before the upright there is placed asortof bath-tub, so that if, bya false movement on the part of the attendant, the head escapes his hand, it falls therein, and dges not roll upon the scaffold. All the machine is painted of a disagreeable,dull red color. ‘The bascule is fitted with leather straps with which to tie the culprit, but these are very seldom used. The upper half-moon drops down very quickly by simply pressing a button. ‘The knife with its leaden setting is affixed to the cap by a piacers in the shape of afigure 8, ot which the lower part opens when the upper is closed. A cord, hang- ing just above the button, just men- tioned as working the bascule, and within easy reach of the executioner, works a lever which brings the upper branches of the eight together and forces the lower apart. ‘Thereupon the knife, being loosened and vtecipitated: by the leaden weight above, falls with astonishing rapidity, its fall being accelerated by polished iron rollers fixed in tha copper-covered grooves of the uprizht. In falling it razes the outer side of the lunet, and stops by the leaaen head coming agaist two spiral springs, which are headed with rubber, to break the shock and neutralize the noise. It will be understood from M. Du Camp's descriptive details with what simplicity and with what security the terrible work of justice may be accomplished. The condemned is placed be- fore the bascule, which reaches from just above the ankles to half-way up the chest. In front of him is opened the lunet, the upper half being raised. ‘The executioner, placing his left hand between the condemned man’s shoulders, pushes him forward, the bascule fal‘s, is rulled rapidly alonz the table, and the head seems to thrust itself through the semi-circular opening, when gn attendant seizes it by the hair. Two movements only have then be made, the one to press the button which brings down the half-moon, and the other to open the spring of thaax. The, head, separated about the first vertebra cervical, ig thrown in the basket, while the executioner, giving the body a touch, rolls it down the inclined plane into the same place. The rapidity of action seems inexplicable, and death comes With such instantaneous- ness that itis difficult to believe that it has happened. The knife, obligue and heavy with lead, acts at the same time as a wedge. amass, anda scythe. Falling fruin a hight of two metres cixhty centimetres, and weigh- ing eighty kilograms, .the effect, taking the weight Into account, {s that of 16.800 kilo- Tams falling uvon the neck from the ightof one centimetre. The duration of the fall, though apparently of lightnin; rapidity, has been mathematically calculated be0.%5 of a second. It must not be im- agined, however, that, perfect as the machine is, ithas only to be directed.

Avin- ian, the horrible butcher who cut his victims into pieces and threw them into the Seine, fought so thet it was necessary to seize him by the two shoulders and absolutely force him down. While, too, these instances of resistance are rare and the culprit is gene- rally resigned and quiet, the vital instinct seems uncontrollable. All (with the excep- tion of those who have lost consclousness) on the instant they fall into the bascule, in place of keeping the head straight .thrust it on the side away from the executioner. To obviate the collision, the body has to be ad- justed. and this with one hand in the twink- ling of an eye. In. the beginning of the present century the famous German anatomist, Samuel von Soemmering, started a strange question in connection with the guillotine. He pro- nounced it as too rapid in its operations, and maintained that sensation did not_cease im- mediately after the head of the sufferer had been struck from the body. Among the in- stances he adduced that of the head of Char- lotte Corday, having blushed with indigna- tion when struck in the face by the execu- tioner. The question has, however, been definitly settled that the decapitated head is senseless. PALMERSTON. “Old Pam’s*? Ways and Words—ard Times and a Happy Marriage. English Paper. He was in some respects a kind of English Bismarck, only less able to accomplish great things because he had a real and not a sham Parliament to reckon with. One day Mr. ‘Gladstone came in some excitement to the Premier and tendered his resignation on ac- count of some trifling difference with his chief. Palmerston (his senior by a quarter of acentury) thereupon gave him a fatherly lecture upon the foolishness of his ways. “You know, Gladstone, it’s for your own sake that I don’t advise you to do this. Of course we shall feel your loss in the Cabi- net; still, the Government of the country will somehow or other be carried on, and pretty much as before. But you will do yourself incalculable narm by resigning. ‘Thenceforth you would.be considered an impracticable man.” Mr. Gladstone remained Chancellor of the Exchequer. : With smaller cclieagues he could be even more unceremonious, as Sir Benjamin Hall, when First Cummissioner of Works, found to his cost. Sir Benjamin wished to turn the Loudon parks into vast gardens. Lord Palmerston objected, as the people would thereby be practically deprived of their play- grounds, Sir Benjamin, however, persisted in his scheme. “ Now, understand, once for all, that £ won’t have this thing done,” wrote Lord Palmerston. And the thing was not done, By his actual subordinates he was much loved. ‘They knew that he could appreciate good work; that he rewarded faititul serv- ice, and tt a Yeutenant who obeyed orders need never have. anything to fear. | Lord Palmerston would defend him through thick and thin, whether against the press orthe House of Commons. But he ruled with a rod of iron, Once and once only was “the office” too much forhim. He had a bell put. up communicating. with one of the clerks’ rooms in order tbat he might summon them with greater facil- ity. On the second day the wire was cut through. Lord Patinerston gave orders for the bell to be repaired, but never used it again. On another oceasion an_incipent mutiny was prompily put down. There was a press of work to be dune, and Lord Palinerston remained in the office late into the night. Of course, the clerks had to re- main too. Towards midnight they lost pa- tience, and sent one of their number down to. ask if they might go outand dine. ‘*Cer- tainly.” he replied, “but they need not take the trouble to return if they do.” He added. thathe had dined early himself, aud they might have done the same had they chosen. This argument was somewhat unsatis- factory, but appeared to convince the clerks. Lord Paimersion worked standing, not to say walking. He would havea couple of high desks in his room. On one lay his paper, on the other (as far removed as possi- ble) his inkstand. He considered the little exercise which he was thus compelled to take in order to fill his pen as tending to in- sure a brisk flow of ideas, as well as to give slight pauses for reflection and comparative rest. Real rest Lord Palmerston hever gave him- self, except when he hada bad cold. He would then allow himself a holiday to be spent by the tire, in n cozy armchair, in com- pany with a three-volume novel, the more “sensational” the better. If 1 remember rightly, “The Woman in White” gave him some hours of intense enfovmauit. ‘To serious reading he «was not much given, but it must never be forgotten in estimating the standard of his oulture that by the time be became Premier he had heard {not read) nearly all the best speeches de- livered in Parliament for upwards of half a century, Ue was more of a purist than was generally, supposed. Thus, in the draft of a ispateh his private secretary having maae use of the word “lien,” Palmerston asked him whether the English word “tie” would "Gis had been, inh ehad been a poor man In his younger days; had fearhed some bitter lessons ard lost many Ilusions, A friend of mine called on him by appointment and found he was out, asudden summons to the palace being the reason of his inability to keep his engage- ment. A servant explained that my ‘Lord would probably be back in an hour. “Very well,” said the visitor, who was. on intimate terms with Pahnerston, “Vl wait. Mean- while [it was about luncheon-time] PH take a glass of sherry and a biscuit.” ‘fhe serv- ant looked rather confused, and ended by stammering out that neither sherry nor biscuits were to be had in the house. “The fact was, his Lordship kept the key: of the cupboard.” Cellar there was evidently none. Palmerston came back by and by, and was laughingly informed of the incident. He observed in a rather dry tone, “I should think I did keep the key of my cupboard.” Ultimately his fortunes mended, and he was already comparatively rich when the Queen politely but firmly commanded him to yet married. Lord Melbourne was a_con- irmed widower, and if the Foreign Secre- tary continued 2 hachelor there would soon be a serious diiticulty about the reception of Embassadresses. “May it please your Majesty,” said Lora Palmerston, “I should only be too happy to marry if I knew any one who would have me.” The Queen gra- clously replied that there need be no diffi- culty on that head, and that if it were neces- sary she would take upon herself to find a lady both ready and-willing. So Lady Cow- per was sent for from Rome, to reign for thirty years over London society. It is said, by the way, that this lady decided that her husband was to be Prime Minister lon be- fore the idea occurred to himself. It wasa very happy match,—indeed, a love mateh. Those who knew Lord Palmerston best sometimes fancied that they detected the traces of a great sorrow carefully concealed fromall men. A's his coffin was lowered into its last resting-place in Westminster Abbey on that cold autumn day of 185 a gentleman stepped forward and flung a ring, with two or three other trinkets, into the open grave. re SYMPATHY.
