SPEED OF GAME-BIRDS. What an Olil Sportsman IteUted to an In Hulsltlre lltportrr. "I have held my wutch on severul kind a ot ducks and goese, but the main part of what I am going to tell you comes from several old hunters who have favored me with their experience, and one of these old-timers in a letter eoys: 'I can tell you just about to the sixty-third part of a dot how much spaco any one of them can get over in an hour. There is not a railroad train that can hold a caudle to the side of, the slowest duck that flies.' "The canvas-back can distauco the whole duck family, if it lays itself out to do it- When this duck is taking things easy.enjoylng a little run around the block, as it were, it goes through tho air at the rate of about eighty miles an hour. If it has business somewhere and has to get there, it puts two miles back of it every minute, and does it easily. If you don't be lieve this, just fire square at the leader in a string of canvas-backs thutare out on a business cruise some time. Duck shot travels pretty fast, but if you hap pen to hit one you see if it is not the fifth or sixth one back of the drake or leader. A drake does not always lead, but it generally does if there is one in the flock; if there are more they will seldom take the lead. If you wish to bring down the leader you must aim at a space of at least eight feet ahead of him. and if he falls you will And him a long distance, probably two or three i-quares off. "The mallard is a slow one; it is all lie can do to make a mile a minute, but he can do it if ho wants to. His. regular rate is about forty-live miles an hour. "The black duck is a slow coach. He is about as good as tho mallard, and tho lintail widgeon and wood duck can not do much better. The red hea can go easily, and make ninety miles an hour as long as ho like-, all day if necessary. The blue-winged teal, and its beautiful cousin, the green-winged teal, can 11 y side by side for one hun dred miles in an hour and take it easy. 'The gad wale, you see them here very seldom, though well known further West on the Allegheny river and at Kishammock, though looking like the mallard is a smarter duck and harder to shoot. It can make ninety miles in an hour and not try hard. "May be you may think a goose can't lly. Why, it can double the speed of the fa-le-st trains on any of our rail roads. Of course 1 mean a wild goose. Well, it has a big corporation, but it can get from feeding ground to feeding ground so suddenly that it fools our bet wing shots. "If you see a llock of honkers mov ing along so high up that they seem to bo scraping the sky with their backs, you would not think that they are making cloe on a hundred miles an hour, but they are. The wild jjoose is not much on foot, but it means imsi ness every time. "Tho broad-bill goose comes next to the canvas back duck in speed. Put the two together and in an hour the broad-bill would not be more than ten miles behind." Wilmington (Del.) News. THE AGE OF MEDIOCRITY. Jtetleetlons mill lieverif of a tVlse I'oel-rii!Iiiiii1it-r. The aue of great men is going; the epoch of tho ant-hill, of life in multi plicity, is beginning. The century of individualism, if abstract equality tri umphs, runs a great risk of seeing no more true individuals. Hy continual leveling and division of labor, society will become every thing and man noth ing. As tho floor of valleys is raised by the denudation and washing down of tho mountains, what N average w ill rise at the expense ot what is great. Tho 'exceptional will disappear. A plateau witii fewer and fewer undula tions, without contrasts and without oppositions such will bo the aspect of human society. Tho statistician will register a growing progress, and tho moralist a gradual de cline; on the ouo hand, a progress of things; on tho other, a decline of souls. I ho useful will take tho place of the beautiful, industry of art polit ical economy of religion, and arithme tic of poetry. The spleen will become tho malady of a leveling age. Is this indond the fate reserved for tho dem ocratic era? May not tho general well-being be purchased too dearly at huch a price? Tho creative force which in the beginning we sco forever tending to produce and multiply dif ferences, will it aft-'rward retracj its steps and oblitoratu them one by one? And equality, which in the dawn of ex ihtonco is more inertia, torpor, and doath, is it to become at last the natural form of life? Or rather, above the economic and political oauul Ity to which tho socialist and non bocialist democracy aspires, taking it too often for tho term of its cll'orts, will thoro not aris" a new kingdom of mind, a church of roluge. a republic of souls, in wnlch, far beyond the region of nioro right and sordid utility, beauty, dovotion, holiness, heroism, enthusiasm, tho extraordinary, the in tlulte. shall have a worship and an abiding city? Utilitarian materialism, barren woll-bolng, tho idolatry of tho flush and of tho "I." of tho temporal and of Mammon, are they to bo the goal of our efforts, tho final recom punso promised to tho labors of our race? I do not bellevo it The ideal of humanity i something different and higher. Hut tho animal in us must Ik tmtlnfiod first; wo must first banish from among us all suffering which has its origin In social arrangements, be- j foro we can return to spiritual goods. J Fiom Auiiel's. Journal. THE TWO NAPOLEONS. Doth Attached a Superstitious ImportauM to the letter M. It is not generally known that both Napoleon 1, and Napoleon III, attached tho most superstitious importance to the letter M. This will bo understood when it is remembered thntMarbceuf was the first to call attention to the genius of young Honaparto at the mil itary college, that Marengo was Na poleon's first great victory, that Molae was the General whom ho superseded in the command of the French army in Italy, that Mortler was one of his best Generals, that it wasMoreau who betrayed him, and that Murat, King of Naples, was the first martyr to his cause. Mario Louise Bharcd tho cul minating point of his fortunes, Mos cow was tho senna of his greatest dis aster, and it was Mettornich who de feated him in tho liefJ of diplomacy. No loss than six of his Field Marshals and twenty-six of his best Generals had names beginning with M, and Marot, Duke of llassano, was his most trusted confident Ills very first battle was that of Moulnotte, and his last that of Mont Saint Jean, subse quently and more universally known as Waterloo. Among his victories were thoso of Mlllesimo, Mondovl, Montnurail, Monterean and Montmar tre. His first Chamberlain was M. do Montesqieu, his last residence in Franco was at Malmaison. Ho sur rendered himself to Captain Maitland of Her British Majesty's ship liellero phon, and his attendants at St. Helena were Montholon and Marchand. Tho superstition attached by Na poleon III, to tho letter M may be ac counted for by tho fact that his wife was a Countess of Montijo, that his most intimate friend was tho Duke of Moray, and his most dreaded enemy Manziui. The most glorious feats of arms by the French army during his reign were the capture of the Malakol' and of the green Mameleh during the Crimean war. His most famous Field Marshals were McMnhon, Duke of Ma genta and the Duke of MaiakolT. Tho great victory of Solferiuo in 1 8.09 took place on tho banks of tho Miucio. and tho cities of Mauti.a and Milan played an important role during the cam paign. Tho Mexican war and the exe cution of Kmperor Maximilian caused his power to wano perceptibly. Malmesbury was tho name of his most iutimato friend in Knglish political life. Sedan, which witnessed his fall, is on tho banks of tho Mouse; tho sur ronde of Metz rendered his restora tion to power impossible, and Moltko was the nai.o of the man to whoso genius he chiefly owed his defeat N. V. Times. THE SOUTHERN CROSS. A Cnnstelltitloii Which i tistriilliius Hiive Chosen lor itu Kuihlem. I have seen the announcement of a book called "Under tho Southern Cross." That means a great many countries, over half a hemisphere, says a traveler writing from Australia, for the cluster is visible in ten and lilteon north latitude, or even further north of tho equator. I have often mentioned the brilliance of tho stars of the south, and here was this beautiful constella tion of the cross (crux) wheeling around us, barely dipping 10 the hori zon at her least or lowest sweep. The Consul-General for Australia said to me ono day: ' Captain, do navigators use the north star and southern cross as beacons or guides when projecting their courses over the vast northern and southern cceans?" I looked at him a moment and saw he was not quzzing mo, for ho was an educated man, and replied: "No, sir; not as a rule. Tho star l'olaris will do in the north Atlantic--i. e.. when sho has, say, an altitude of reasonable height, but is seldom used now, in thoso days, and south of twenty degrees north lati tude never, for then she is seen too dimly. The southern cross never, for only when it is on our meridian is it directly south, although Poinds, on tho contrary, varies trom the true north only a small amount; she is north her self. May 1 ask why you propose this question, sir?" Ho said that on the last Sabbath hi church tho clergyman an nounced that the marines made con stant use of tho north star and tho southern cross as guides over the track less ocean, and ho (tho Consul) was not so sure of It. It is said that King Cete wayo, when In church in Kngland, heard the minister makoeuch a foolish remark that ho arose, gathered his toggery about him, uud said gravely to his ntendants: "Come, let us go." 1 should have douo the same if I had been whoro our Consul was. It is thus that I often learn how men appear, no matter how great they are, when they do not know what they are talking about; for instance, the Konuebecker talking about spiritualism or any kind of religion. Well, tho Australians havo captured tho beautiful cross of stars that wheel over their heads, chosen it for an em blem (of trials, perhaps, or to apply to themselves as a crucial test), and placed it in tho field of their flag, with tho Knglish Union .lack in tho upper loft-hand corner. Thoy aro ahead so far as tho cross is concerned, and prob ably tho book means "Australia" and its crucial test Hoston Journal. A Philadelphia tool manufacturer , instructs his workmen to hold large' steel tools In u north and south line! whllo they aro being tempored.

Tke Northern' Hew Hle?prM. Railroaders speak in high praise of the new veutibuled sleepers of the Northern Pacific, saying they are without doubt the finest sleeping cars run upon any . road. Kacu car lias two state rooms one a single and the other a double room. Each has its own private toilet room. Tho remainder of tiie car ia altogether different from tho ordinary sleeper. The toilet rooms are large and much more private. In the old style of Pullman the j gentlemen's toilet room has no privacy 1 whatever. In these they extend across the car and are partitioned off so that one 1 passing through the car sees nothing of the gentlemen making their toilet Each car is supplied with hot and cold water, and ice water as well. The water is car ried in Uinks beneath the car, aud by a new arrangement the necessity of pump-1 ing water for toilet purposes is done away with. Tho water is forced into tho pipes by means of air pumps. Warm water is obtained by having tho water pass tlirough a coil of pipe encircling the 1 heater. The drinking water passes through pipes upon which is placed a largo quantity of ice. In tho toilet room is an air gauge carrying tho same amount of pressure iu a tank beneath the air as is in the drum under the engine. This constantly lias sufficient pressure to keep running both hot and cold water, as well as ice water. Tho two water tanks beneath the cars are sufficient to supply tho capacity of tho car for sixty hours. Should the car be cut off there is attached an air pump, with which by the manipulation of an employe sufficient air can be forced into the tank to keep up a stream of rumming water for ten hours. In case of fire the car is supplied with hose which, attached to the toilet room faucets, will give n stream sufficiently heavy to check any ordinary blaze. Tho interior car is all hand finished, the trim-' ming8 being in blue silk glace, making altogether the finest cars yet turned out , by the l'ullmad shops. WIT AND WIS'OOW.

Young men aro apt to think themselves wise enough, as drunken men are apt to think themselves sober enough. - Reflect upon your blessings, of which every person has many, not on your pat misfortune, of which all men have some. - A young woman who has her own living to make needs lo disembarrass herelf of all false pride, says a writer in Harper's Huznr. - He that does not know thoo things which aro of use and necessity for him to know, is but an ignorant man, what ever he may know beside. Tillotson. The man is rich who doesn't want more tl-an he bus means to get. Some ono h;i- said that riches consist in the abundance of things a man does not want, and there is n great big pile of solid chunks of wlsdow in tho say in,'. - Truo Immunity consists not iu a squeamish ear; it consists not in start ing or shrinking at tales of misery, but in a disposition of heart to redevo it. Tiuo humanity appertains rather to the mind than to the nerves, and prompts men to use real and active endeavors to execute the actions that it suggests. - Fox. Tho old proverb that misery loves company is a true one. and we prove it so for ourselves. A pain iu tho body is issoeiated with one in the soul, but we also find ourselves beset with all kinds of imaginary ills when compelled to hear real ones. Worries have their atlinities just as kindred spirits have, and thev seek eaeli other iu all direction-!. - United Presbyterian. - S uipathy is one of our finest de velopments of human character. Who lias not known and felt its sweet influence-:' In dark hours of grief, when the poor heart bleeds aud whose has not some time? How tenderly soothing are the kind tonei or lea is or acts which ind.cate sympathy with our sor row!
