While In Montreal I heard a story ar Sir Peter Mitchell, member of rarl lament for New Brunswick, of whom I spoke In a recent letter, lie was an opposition member during tho lamentable Government of Sir John Mackenzie In the last decade, and was a constant and moat uocomforta ble thorn In the side ef that unhappy premier. Sir John was a oonsplcuous railroad magnate, and Just before the opening of Parllemont one Winter, Bir Peter oaltod en him to Induce bin to pay $40 for a widow's cow that had been run evor by the ears "I don't believe there's anything la It," oxelalroed the premier perempt orily "It's probably a trumped-up case, but I'll Inquire, and you eel! to morrow." The gentleman from New Bruns wick was not used to being treated so cavalierly, but he pocketed It, and called In the mom lag. .a .Mi .a (A ' merra no justice In It. We wen t pay far the cow." broke In Sir John. yeu won't ; won't you W rejoin ed air Peter, with a manner quite aa bouncing aa that of the leader ef the Government. "Have you been there, or sent there and Investi gated it r "No, I haven't ; hat I won't pay for the cow. It's a mere trifle, and she ought to have kept off the track." "Don't tbelaw aay you shall have a fence f I4 won't pay for the cow, now i and that's all the answer you'll get" "You won't pay for the widow's cow ; won't you, Sir John Mack, eesle ? I will make yon pay far It," exclaimed Blr peter, now thoroughly aroused. 'You will ; you will I Mow will you r' growled the premier. "I'll take it out during the session, as sure aa yen are a living man The widow's $40 Isn't aay thing, Isn't t ? I'll take It out of you 1" It waa an Irishman against a Scotchman, ami both were angry. The aequoi proved that Sir 1'oter took It out of him very thoroughly. le Is a roued headed man, a hard worker, a pugnacious gejrf redoubts ble foe, an unforgiving enemy ; bold and elegant In debate, no dilettante, but a bard hitter, and some of hit onslaught were furious. If he bad not groat tact be had groat force, aod he never forgot the cow. In the speeches ho made every dsy against the measure and methods of the Gov ernment, thon under serious eusplc- on, be told tbe story of the cow and trotted her out with a frequency that must have seemed like cruelty to animals. Finally the laat day of the aoeslon dawned, and tne consideration of Mackenzie's expense budget was re sumed. It provided tho appropria tions for the coming year. Sir Peter Mitchell took the floor aod launched Into a euloerv of tho deceased cow and tho propriety or making an appropriation for tbe widow. He was greeted with laugh ter and mocking applause, and then his auditors waited uneasily for him to finish. He did not finish. He continued. He to'.d the story over again with embellishments and elab orations. He contrasted tho stine- Ineas of the wealthy ruler with the quiet endurance of the pennlles8 widow, fie began to read from the Bible the commands to mercy, Justice and charity, when the honorable members straggled out, one by one, to dinner. Sir Peter bit a biscuit, drank a swallow of water, and con tinued, impressing upon the empty chairs about hlra the tender duties and graces of humanity. Members straggled in again. He quoted the "Song of tbe Shirt. " They appealed to him to draw his remarks to a close. He told the story of the cow. Mean time Sir John Mackenzie was per. spiring with wrath and anxiety in the premier's apartment hard by. All his hopes were bound up In the appropriation budget. What if it should not come to a vote ! Tho honorable member from New Bruns wick could not be stopped, for this was the one bill In the Canadian Parliament on which a member could snea'c as long as he wished. There was no way of cutting short the debate. No motion waa in order. while ho was speaking, except the motion to adjourn and that would be adjournment sine die. The Gov eminent members were in consterna tion as the orator delivered n speech on the blessings of vaccination, gave statistics en the cost of fences In tbe United States, passed an elaborate encomium on the superiority for draft purposes of Devon cattle, to which class deceased domestic friend belonged, and then began to describe the religious ceremonies in which the sacred cow of Burmah takes part when the bell rang for vespers. A short time mora and thn na anion wnulti expire by law, and thft Government Bfnwrat had passed no appropriation bill ! At this critical Juncture one of the Government members returned ex citedly from the premier's rootrtj rushed to the orator's desk, and ex claimed t "In the name of God, what alia you, Mitchell ? What de you want P Still," aald Sir Peter, finishing the sentence he had on his Hps, not a cent has over been paid for the widow's cow !" The member uttered a vehement exclamation about that animal and added I 'Hit John Mackenzie authorises me to say that bo will pay for the cow If you'll let this bill como to a vote." Sir Poter eat down, rather tired, and the widow got her pay. The Government orgaos declared that the widow's cow cost $40,000. Her champion Is still known In Canada as Bismarck Mitchell, on account of his boldness and shrewdness) In out witting a cabinet and making him. aelf long the ad vise.

Taking tbe enumeration ef tbe people of France ia 1881 as a basis, M. Cber- via skews that tbe increase sines 1876 has been only twenty per 1000, while in England it was 145, sad in Germany so bigb as 574 per 1000. About 90 per cent, of tbe human body Ui wster.

It has been ebcerved that workers in a m a n a a copper wan absorb a considerable amount of dust from tbe metal, enjoy a quite general immunity from cholera, typhoid fever, and like complaints, while copper salts protect various mate rials from parasites. A ton of London sewage contains only three jiounds of solid matter, say oae pound of organic and two pounds of mineral constituents, the former yield ing lees thsn three ounces of ammonia. snd ths Utter hslf an ounce of phos phoric scid and 11 ounces potash. Hence in a ton of such town sewage there i oaly about five ounces of foatii- ising matter. A French scientist, explaining why fiah eaten in .Holland are superior to those eaten ia Frauee, ssys that tbe Dutch fishermen kill their fish as sdba ae taken from tbe water by making a slight longitudinal incision under tbe tail with a very sharp instrument. The French fishermen, on the contrary, al- ew their fish to die slowly, and this alow death softens the tissues and ren ders them more liable to undergo change.

A fire baloon has been made in which the lower part is constructed of asbestos cloth, while the upper part ia covered ith a fireproof solution. A spirit lamp is used to supply the hot atr for inflating it, and, being fireproof, them is no risk, as with ordinary hot-air bal loons. The system is said to be espec ially valuable for war balloons, as a sup ply of spirits can be easily carried where it would be difficult to take the applt ances for preparing gas. As to mimicry the giraffe hat the meat astonishing power of any animal, aaya Dr. H. W. Mitchell. Inhabiting, as it does, tho forest of Africa, and feed ing upon boughs of trees, its great site makes it a most conspicuous object. Its meat dreaded enemiee are tbe stealthy lion and man. In tbe legions it most frequents are many dead and blasted trunks of trees, snd its mimicry is such that tbe most practised eye has failed to distinguish a giraffe from a tree trunk, or a tree trunk from a giraffe. It has even been said that a lion has looked long and earnestly at a giraffe, in doubt whether it was a tree or not, and thea skulked away. The St. Louis (Mo.)

Everything is saapped this Friday morning by a cold wave not very eon genial to the tastes of the Webfoot. A old blixzsrd seems ea much out of place hero as a warm day would at the North pole. It ia a terrible institution because it acmes se suddenly that it has aa by tho neck before we can get a tippet and in consequence the first thins: we know we have tho frigid sons in onr throat and boaHa talking as if we bad lest our moioor-in-law. And then again ase bow it puts its sharp pointed nippers huo the poor wheat and drags the golden seed hate the open atmos phere, to the farmers dieeomfitnre, for tbe way we da farming ia Oregon, it is, "no wheat, do money." And again it sees te aaiaaiag the beads of tbe young people aad they get oat their skates, and seeing a thin film OB the water, pat them en and with a eh ear go off into tho water, aad if it wasn't thst it is gsnssilly only knee deep the andoctakor wwaid as have a job. But on tho other band tbe cold saap is very timaiy. The river at a terrible rase aad waa fwee at Harriaburg, with its feee turned toward Albany.

But what a spectacle each an occurrence would present. Little imps would skate in tho channels of our art teries, and icicles weald hang frees our noses, molasses barrels would solid, and sugar would change into aod ice. We would light our bet with kerosene icicles, and take our hot coffee solid.
