There are some who are waking up, howe to the dauger of giving ch or the asking. It has been proved in ances that the city has been too r to give charters and rights of way. They areeasily got but not so easily got vid of. The city leislators are beiug taught ulittle caution, and they are listening rather more pat merly to protests and w The charter now under discussion before the council is meeting with some opposition, Some of it arises from corporations who have the sclfish but natural desiveto protect their own interests, which would be appareatly jeopardized by the granting of such a sweep- ing charter s is now asked for. Other op- position is made on general princivles. It is urged that the charter asks for too much. It covers every street in the city, and some far beyond where thereis any settlement in fact, and little prospect of any for years, Still, if convinced that the company really means busiuess, and that it will in fact build and operate the road to the advantage of the city, the eity will ba found to be. willing und iiberal. In view of thehistory of some past charters and the suspicions which are directed to this one, the city council should be very cautious and should investigate fully, Tthas been suggested that in considering this and future charters thosé seeking to pro- cure them should be called upon to give to the city a reasonable bond guaranteeing that they will use the charter for the purpos avowed, and will proceed practically under it, thus giving the city some assurance of good faith. To companies really meaning business it scems that such a requirement would prove no hardship, and it would often prevent the issuance of charters which sim- ply tie up the city and bring none of the ad- vantages promised, men’s suits, nobby, at the Model J.

The ‘only mammals it possessed before the arrival of Captain Cook in 1769, the author of “New Zealand After 4 the kiore—a little, ri-brown rat—and two very small bats, Re kiore isnow a rave and very shy animal, but there ave times when it makes it appenrance in - vast numbers, coming nobody knows whence and going nobody knows whither, Throe or four years tion of rats occurred on the west coust of one of theislands: acountless swarm of these little creatures travelled along the shore for a distance of 150 miles, all golng one way andall moving as fastas they could. Many of them dicd of hun- gerby the way, and they wereall ex- posed to the terrible attacks from a rat arger and stronger than themselye: Alter passing in a ceuseless procession along the shove for many months the rats vanished as suddenly us they had appeaved, and to this day no one has been able 1o offer even aplausible theory in regard to their migration, Another New Zealand animal which is somewhat peculiar in its habitsis the tuatara, a lizard which grows from six inches toa foot in length. This creature is the very embodiment of a negative existence, It is usually found clinging motionless toa rock, per- feotly regardless of driving sy or hllmhugmn. It wants neither food nor drink, but s perfectly content to be kept in a glass case for months or even years, and is very slightly affected by the want of air It makes no noise and moves 8o seldom and so slowly that many persons have watched those confined in a glass case for a long period, and then left them under the impression that the erentures were only stuffed specimens after all, Yetthe solemn blinking of the golden oyes and the slow palpitation of their leathery sides bear slight witness to their sluggish vitality. S . Colonial Book Pirates. The result of the inquiry made by the Society of Authors as to the extent to which® pirated editions are introduced into the colonial book muket, to the detriment of English holders of copy- vight, appears to be that in Australin and New Zealund present legislation is suflicient, and that in India the evil is but partial, says the London Athengeum, But' in Afvice and other partsof our dominions the 20 per cent collected by the custom house on the published price of books registered at Stationers' hall, en if carefully levied, appears, aecord- ing to the current number of the Author, not to be o suficient deterrent, The fact that thelists supplied to the custom house areoftena year old or more, and that registration of books is frequentl neglected too long, muy partly account for the suceess of cont i band enterprise, In any legislative at- tempts that may be made to correct the evil, the society expresses itsell con- fident of the co-operation of the colonial oftice, sousin Neow, ago such a visita- cortain person | Tnsuring | meral term of acate the order 1) for damages for pablishing the fmous to hear ex-President Cleveland of Mr. Cleveland did not A forty-six, fought a duel toduy in & blacksmith shop with u fierce ended only when both men sunk vritory dupon by the Russian fron- ses- showinga Who g0 to foreign and home missionary fields morning lias.
