The migratory quail resembles in outward ap- pearance our American partridze, which are called quafl in New England. The migratory quail 1s one-third smailer than the New E | land bird, and the throat of the male 1s marked with dark brown or black, extending from the he European spectes bill downwards, ot t rst. John, N. b., a few Some young quat' Were captured nea months ago, though none were itberated nearer ‘that place than at Si. Stephen. Several were heard and seen near Machias during last sum- | Mer and autumn. None were liberated nearer than the Penobscot Valley, in the west, or at Calais, forty miles to the east. This i3 not re- Mmarkable, however, for thts quall can fly titty miles an hour, and, unlike our American par- tridge or quali, it 1s capable of long sustained filghts. Migratory or true quall multiply very rapidly, and Judge Martin G. Everts, of Rut- land, Vt., who introduced them here, predicts that in twenty years they will be the most nu- merous game bird in America. The habits of these birds in this country are the same asin Europe, They acrive on their nesting ground in May and migrate about the end ofSeptember, Their favorite resorts are meadows and fields of grain. Their food con- sists of grain, herts and hemp, poppy and turnip seed. ‘They feed also on grasshoppers, worms, insects and their eggs and larvew. The female makes her nest in June orJuly.

Stir the morning air. Although not so meio- dious as the Bod White's note3, they can be heard a longer distance. After a preliminary strutand a guttural cluck, the quail raises himsel? to his fall height, and then from gturee toeight times he repeats, as near as cin be written, ““Pick-per-a-wick.” A law was passed last_ winter in Maine protecting migratory quail for three years and ieee a@ severe penalty on any person killing or in any way interfering with them.

The work of the army is regarded in different lights by French Protestants, many being quite opposed to It. —Arich men’s revival 13 looked for in Bos+ ton. “I have noticed,” says the pastor of an aristocratic church, "some awakening in rellg- fous matters lately.

Anglican clergymen, no- biemep, undergraduates, men about town with “mystical tendencies,” sceptics, actors, ac- tresses, officers, barristers, physicians, Rit- ualist monks, Americans, dissenters, and stockbrokers bave entered the porcals of the “Mater et Magistra omnium Eceleslarum” un- der the magnetic tntiuence of “The Monsig- nor.” ister and Congressman, discovers that a portion Of his church questions whether God and mam- mon can be successfully served at the same Ume. At a recent secret church meeting Pastor Smith assured his flock that Congress would not keep him away from them any serious length of time. It being charged that he was a Unlver- Salist, Mr, Smith confessed that he did not ac- cept the doctrine of eternal damnation, asked pardon it he had offended anybody, and all but 20 of those present voted confidence in their leader. —In commenting on a Baptism by immer- sion, which occurred during the past winter, when the ice in a stream was broken 1n order to poe the ceremony, the Christian Register of Boston suggested that hereafter “a hearse Should form part of the procession” to the feo hole. The New York Eraminer does not take well tothe idea, ana ee that a hearse “might be serm@iceable tn the case of some Unt- tarlan scoffers who looked on,” but not to tho Baptists. It adds that ‘nothing has been bat- ter known anes all the generations of Bap- tists,than that when the heart Is warm ice and snow can do no harm!" ‘The New York Observer makes these quota- Uons from the catechism which the Rey.

AS there were Calvinists on the revision com- mittee who seem to have accepted the amended version, 1t would appear that tuey did not hold that the concession Was in any Ways fatal to thetr doetsine. —Although the work of the Salvation army In this country has not amounted to much, the reports trom the orlginal neadqaarters of the somewhat uniaue organization indicate that oa the other side of the water the work prospers. It is sald that the “army” increases in num- bers. “General” Booth appears to be auto- cratic 1a his control of tie movement. His wife and daughter aidhim. The “army” is sald to consist ina body of converted men and women joined together after the fashioi of an. army, ‘who intend to make all men yield, or at least Usten to the claims whtcn God has to their loveand service.” Mr. Booth yas a min- ister in the Methodist New Connfetlon, put considered that hg had a speclal work to do, and resigned his post{fon in that body for bis pre- sent evangelistic work.

In spite of the innumerable snares that were Set for his life, Alexander @L. held the sceptre for a period far longer than the average term accorded to European sovereigns. He suc- eceded to the throne on March 2, 1855, though ihe coronation, which took piace at Moscov, Was postponed for a year anda half. Thus hts Telgn covered a period of twenty-six years and eleven days. Only three among the Ea- ropean rulers who claim imperial or royal rabk show a reign ot longer duration. A queen leads the line. Viciorla of England ascended the throne on June wth, 1 an: already her reign has endured for forty-three years, eight months and twenty-three days. Francis Joseph of Austria comes next. He was proclaimed Emperor of Austria on Decerabor 2, 1S45, and counts an {mpertal term of 32 years, 3'months and io days, Wiillam JIL, King ot tue Netherlands, stands third in the list. He succeeded to the throne on March 17, 1949, Oa ‘hursday last his Dutch Majesty ‘completed the 524 year of his relgn. The death of the Czar has raised William of Germany to the fourth place on the list, but that position is held by the Kalser as King of Prussia, not as Emperor of Germany. William ascended the Prussian throne on January 2, is6i. He has Worn the crown for 20 years, 2 months and 13 days. It will be seen that the Kaiser's royal authority must conlinue nearly six years longer before {t can match lengths with the reign which was cut slort on Sunday by a murderous hand. But, though the reign of Alexander IT. looks long in comparison with the figures shown by the rulers of other lands, its Quration, strange to say, ees by no means remarkable tn Russfan history. The record on this point runs right in the teeth of the current impression. Muscovite sovereignty has been deseribad, wittlly, and with some justification, as a despotism tempered by assassination. ‘Yet, in Spite of the risk of a violent death, Czars and Czarinas, as a rule, have kept their heads under the crown for periods that run far beyond the average duration of relgn in safer countries. Ivan the Great, the first ruler of Russia who assumed the title of antocrat, ascended tie throne fn 1152, From that date up to the accession ot Alexander HI., twenty-four Czar and Czarina held sway in Muscovy, Twen- ty-four rulers In continuous succession covered a period of 419 years, an average of nearly sev- euteen and one-half years to each reign. Of these as many as seven exceeded the term of the late Czar. The lst 13 well worth giving. Te with the smaller figures, Nicholas, the father of Alexander IJ., ruied for thirty years; Alexis, the son of Michael, for thirty-one years; and Michael himseif, the tlrat Czar of tue houss of Romanoff, for thirty-two years. Catherine If, occupied the throne for thirty-four years. Peter the Great reigned for forty-three years, first as jolt emperor and then as autocrat. Ivan thé Great also held imperial power for forty-three years.

A year later almost to a day, the Emperor of Russla was shot at by a man of good position by the name of Pe- trowlk in the garden of his palace at St. Petersburg. A peasant, who struck | up Petrouik’s pistol, and 89 turned the | shot aside, and in all probablilty saved | the Em) | peror's life, was rewarded with a title of Robility and the commission of a captain In the army.

Natural and Artificial. Air, under ordinary conditions, 1s an ex: tremely light, tenuous, and harmless ttutd. | Sul air is impalpable to the touch, ard exerts uO pressure save that known a3 atmospheric pressure. Rouse it, however, a3 it rouses in the tornado, and it becomes a tremendous power, eqital to the uprooting of trees, the up- | roofing of houses, and the destruction of navies. | The mat er of the alr thus violently agitated becomes in some senses irresistible.

We have only to | transfer the fury of the hurricane to the wing3 of tying creatures to understand how they litt | their bodies and hurl them through space, Hight one or two things 1s necessary: either | the wings must be driven at a very high speed | in still alr; or the atr, violentiy agitated, must sirike the ander surfaces of the wings ng gently, or heid in one position atan upward angle, after the manner of a boy's kite. This ig a se quanon. The speed at which wings are driven dimintshes in proportion as the | wings become large, but in every cas: they ly must be made to move more or less _b: the alr is nol moving; and they must be made to move quicker than the air if the air ts to be controlied, and the fying creature is to fly in any given direction. The great differences be- tween the water and the air as highways for | the locomotion ot animals amounts to this: the water, being a heavy, incompresstble iiuid, oats or buoys up the animal immersed in it, and affords & comparatively substantial | recoil to its traveling surfaces. A swim- ming animal has, cossequently, only to opel itself; the air,on the contrary being a ight and highly compressible flufd, does not tloat or buoy up the animal immersed in It, neither does it afford a very substantial recoil to its traveling surfaces, A it, has, consequently, not only itself, Dut also to float cr buoy itself. ‘ae analogy which obtains between the water and the alr as Supporting medes has strangely and prey complicated the probiem of flight; the idea uppermost in most minds being, thata flying creature must tloat upon the atras a ship noats upon the water. This idea led to the dis- covery of a balloon by the Montgolfier broth- ers in 1782, nearly 100 years sgo. however, everything which files is veptly heavier than the air, it follows that the balloon has no ana- logue in nature. ‘The balicon cannot in any sense regarded as a flying machine.

Not far from Wirt county is the home of two young ladies, sisters, aged respectively iS and 20 years. They were each reeeiving the ad- dresses of lovers, Who wore brothers, and both couples were engaged to be marri It was their intention to celebrate a double wedding about the holidays, but now matters have changed. A few daysago the four were sitting tore er in the girls’ home, when the elder lady expressed a desire to attend a protracted meeting then being held in a village near by. She asked her lover to accompany her, but he refused polnt blank, giving as his reason that he was not a Christlan. young lady in- ‘sisted, but still he refused. Finally she turned to his brother, who, it seems, was a Christian, and asked him to accompany her.

A Grain Elevator. In order to begin at the beginning—get to the bottom, as It were, @f an clevator—one must climb to the very top. The building is perhaps one hundred and. ‘itty feet long by Seventy-five feet wide, and, like all of its class, it rises eighty feet or more to the eaves, above which a narrow top part forty or tifty feet higher, is perched upon the ridge-pole. It is built of wood,*sheathed with corrugated tron a little way up, and then Slated the rest of the way. Entering one eud, where two railway tracks run into the bullding, we find a uarrow wooden stairway, and begin our ascent. The flights are short ones, but eighteen are stepped over before we emerge into the topmost attic. Along side of us, as we climbed, has been run- ning the strong rolt which carries the power from the great engine on the ground-floor to the gearing in the roof—a belt of rubber can- vas four feet wide, and perhaps two hundred and fifty feet long. When grain is bought—perhaps a hundred car-loads from the vast flelds of Dakota or the wide farms between here and St. Paul—tne train {s backed right into the elevator, and stands so that opposite each car door 13 a re- celver, which ts a kind of vat, or hopper, in the platiorm. By the help of steam-shovels, eper- ating almost. automatically, two men tn each setter in ten minutes orless empty the whole train. As fast as the grain is dumped, the recelver delivers 1 to !ron buckets heiding about a peck each, which are attached to endless belts, and trayelup a sort of chimney, called a “leg.” to this roof chamber, ‘Tues? buckets will hoist 6,000 bushels an hour at thelr ordinary rate of speed. That is equal to one bucket going up 24,000 times, at_ the rate of 49) times 3 minute— tolerably lively work! To-day up here in the vopmost loft there is nothing doing, and we are saved sirangulation.
