Chamisso's story was published in 1813, be- came immediately popular, and was translated into most modern’ languages. The English edi- Uon, with illustrations by George Cruikshank, 18 Very commonly met with in our grandfather's Ubraries. “The tale of Peter Schlemihl,” says John Fiske, “belongs vo a family of legends which show that & man’s shadow has been generally regarded as a sort of spiritual attendant of tne body, which, un- der certain circumstances, 1t may permanently forsage. In strict accordance with this idea, not only fo classic languages, but in various barbaric tongues, tue word meaning ‘shadow,’ expresses also the soud or other self.” He instances the Basttos, who think that if a man Walks on the river bank’ a crocodile may see his shadow and draw him in; the Zulus, who hold that a dead bedy can cast no shadow, &. Sav ages are unwilling to have tuelr phovographs taken, lest a portion of themselves be curried off.

Dante, 'h Une “Tuferno,” refers to bis It Ing contemporaries whose souls he met in heli, while ther Codies walked about the earth pos: sessed by deviis, In Spain and Germany there are several legends of wen who lest their shadows to the devi, difer- ing only from the Schtemibl story in the fact that Mt was lost to outwit the devil, ‘Thus both to Brops and Sclamanca, the devil ts said to have established schools of” magic, on condition that the last to leave the school 'should become bts Siave. In both places the last scholar maintained that his shadow, Which fell beiind Lim as be crossed the threshold, Was Unc last to leave, and the devil was forced td abide by this reasoning. In Toledo, a:s0, the devil had a school where the graduating’ classes were made to run trough a subterranean hull, tue veuerabie president belag entitied to the hinumost if he could cach him, (Hence the grigin of our proverb, “the devil €atches the liudmost.”) Sometimes it happened Uhat he caught only nis shadow. ‘Those who lost thelr shadows made the best magicians, because they had the henefit of a post-graduate course. ih the “Lay of the Last Minstrel” Scott thus Speaks of the father of Lady Buccleugh: “Yet, Her father was aclerk of fame Uf B shune’s line of Picardie: H. iearfed the art that noue may name Iu Padua, iar beyoud the sea. said he changed his mortal frame ‘By feat of masic mystery; For when, in studious mood, he paced.

SOME OBSERVATIONS ON THE SYMPTOMS OP MENTAL FATIGUE, From the London Lancet. ‘Some interesting though not novel observations on the symptoms of mental fatigue were disclosed at a recent meeting of the Anthropological Society. ‘The result of these investigations goes to prove that weariness of mind, the result of work, like other forms of exhaustion, ts recognizable under the two different though relatea aspects of Irrita- bility and tneapacity, Further careful inquiry into the same subject would probabiy show that here, as elsewhere, the former of these conditions 4s introductory to’ the latter, and is the navural Sequel of that st ge of apparently successful over- aciion which ts seen When an organ suill fully ca- pable fs unduly stimulated, ‘The observations referred to were culled from a series Of reporis by school teachers, and Included details of their own sensations as well as of the children under their own care, ‘The signs of mei tal irritablity were apparent in sleeplessness and nervous laughter; of fauigue, in sleepiness and incapacity for task work.

Nothing could be calmer than the life of the people, judged trom the surface. The old French or Messin stock seemed to have grown thoroughly accustomed to the presence of the Germans in their midst and wo have become biended with them. Closer observation has forced me to a very different conclusion, Metz has been greatly Germantzed by coutinucus tmmigratio from beyond the Ruine; but the Measins are more French in ‘sywpathy than they were _be- fore the war, They mix freely with the Germans in the ordinary business of life, but, the, two elements do not mix socially. ‘There are many cafés where only French 1s spoken, and others where one hears nothing but German.’ Even those Lorrainers of the lower classes, Who habitually speak in German patols, persist’ in calling themselves French whenever they can do so with discretion. Young Messins who were boys when this city belonged to France, and who bave served thelr time in the German army, revurn to thelr old associations as soon as ‘hey are free; and they have the credit of being more hostile to the Germans than the older gene- ration, Yet indirect taxation falls less heavily upon the workman here than it does in France. Bread and tobacco—only to name two afficles—are much cheaper here than they are on the French side of the tronuer. On the other band, trade is languishing and work of all kinds i$ ard to obtain. The Germans have Spent Vast sums upon the construction of forts, Dut they have Geen careful to employ only German and Italian laborers. The Lorrainers and Alsa— Uans are evidently regarded as a conquered people Teady tor rebellion. All attempt at con appears to have been abandoned; and !t looks as 41, the province were wo be Gerinanized by the forced emigration of those who are bound to France by family tes as well ay by political sym- pathies. As the inhabirants leave thetr places are taken by Germans, Thus the trade of Metz, which afew years ago was almost exclusively ‘in the hands Of the native population, is now to a large ‘extent In the hands of the Germans, All who have capital invested here, whatever thelr political differences on other points may be, are devply discontented with the new passport regulations on account of the injury to trade. A movement for petitioning the government to do away WILh restrictions so injurious to the inter- €8ta Of its OWN subjects is on foot. And the pass- port grievance has been succeeded by another— Unimportant by comparison, but one which Ub Gallophil part of the population regard as an extra drop to tuelr brimming cup of exasperation. Unull the frst instant French money was allowed Yo pass currentiy bere; then an order was issued Jorbidding shopkeepers to accept it, The Messins have kept up the practicegntil the present day of reckoning 1u all thelr comfferciai transactions by {eanes and sous, ‘They conuinue to do so in spite of the official order.

They imagined tnat it was all a fabrication of the deceitful white man. In fact, they would have departed with a opinion of the invention of Morse and all the otuer claimants thereof nad not somebody proposed to give them a galvanic shock. ‘This utterly puzzied and at the same Ume delighted the Indians, who grasped the wire and shouted lke schoolboys when the current made them tingle from head to foot.
