Isaac. Your article on frogs ia good, but
not exactly in Onr line. Your idea that frogs
grow more bob-tailed as they advance in
a-ers in admitted by the most distinguished
naturalist. You are wrong, however, in at
tr buting the discovery of frogs to Christopher
Columbus in 14120. Trofessor Turnskin, in
Lis "l'ursuit of Nonsense under Difficulties,"
63 crts that they migrated to this country
W'jen compelled by St. Patrick to skedaddle

Astronomer. The reason that cats climb to
the roof ia, that they want to lay hold of the
Milky Way. J
Medicos. It was Abernethy who gave the
prescription to which you allude. An Irish
man called upon the doctor in haste, exclaim
ing: "Be jabers, docther, me boy Tim has
swall'd a mouse 1" "Then, be Jabers," said
Abernethy, "tell your boy to swallow a cat."

A VERSIFIED "JOURNEY OP LIFE."
From London Fun.
AVheu a man travels the journey of life
He gets a few rubs of the bustle and strife;
And if he's in want of a guide-book, per
chance I can give him a tketch of the route' at a
glance:
Mammy's lap coral and pap fussery, nua-
sery cry, cry.
Heaps of toys racket and noise hummery,
dumiuery lie, fie I
Off to school dull as a mule fag away,
drag away slow, slow.
Ei.rly love coo like a dove sighery, fiery
glow, glow.
Choose a career prospects queer failery,
wailery gruff, gruff.
Lesson learnt, candle burnt flickery, wiek-
ery puff, puff.
Fussery, nussery, hummery, dummery, fag
away, drag away, failery, wailery, flickery,
wickery, laughing, chaffing, moaning, groan
ing, illery, pillery, doctor's billery, sad
enough, mad enough, glad when you've had
enough.
AVhen a man travels the journey of life
He gets a few rubs iu the bustle and strife;
Gets, all his life,
A few rubs in the bustle and strife.
A Lively Scene in Court.
The Euplish Chief Justice of the Honar-Honsf
Fuprcrue Court aud the leader of the bar, Mr.
I'd lard, Q. C, do not get nn well toprether. A
case was recently broken off by tbe action ot the
Justice in requiriug an apoloiry from the bar
rister, which the Jatter would not give. Two
davs aitcrwards another "tceDc" took place,
and the Chief Justice prouounccd Mr. Pollard
guilty of grave contempt ot Court, fined him
two hundred dollars, and suspended him from
practice tor a fortnight, or until the tine was
paid. The Jude read his decision from a
manuscript, occasionally interrupting the thread
of his argument to remans upon ihe deport
ment of the offending counsel. Once Mr. Pol
lard smiled, on which the Chief Justice re
marked, "Ibis is very amusing, Mr. Pollar.1,
but it is law." Shortly afterwards he suddenly
exclaimed, urn asionishcd at your staring,
Mr. Pollard." "It was a stare of astonishment,
my lord," remarked tbe leurneJ counsel.
'Mare on, Mr. Pollard," laid the Chict Justice;
'thts is a fubject for staiiiii."
At aiiOihrr passage in his address the Judtre
paused, and, lookiitz at the contumacious bar
lister, said emphatically, "Mr. Pollard, your
eves are opened cry wide." "And with cau -e,
my lord." replied Mr. Pollard. Ilii lordship
pronoui.ced Mr. Pollard to have been guilty of
six contempts, which consisted briefly of one
"pointed and curt nnwer," with an "apparent"
purpose of raising a luuph agninst the Chief
Justice; two "tone aud manners," wl.h "infer
ences ;" one "imputation, the converse of what
had occurred;" one avowal of a desire not to be
"aggressive;" and oue "tone" "inierring" that
Mr. Pollard had more respect for the bcuch
i. e., for the wooden, chair lhau he uad lor us
occupant.
At the conclusion cf the Chief Justice's
address, Mr. Pollard .endeavored to speak, but
the Judpe dccLiued to hur him, and advised
him to appeal to the Privy Council, or to bung
the matter before tbe Benchers of the Inn of
Couitol which be was a member.
A Visit to the Artist Kniilbncli.
Dr. Bellows writs from Munich to the Liberal
Christian of New York:
"J had lonff had the greatest admiration for
the creuiusot 'Kaulbach, as exnibitct iu bislllus
tiations of Geiman poetry, mythology, aud his
tory. To the penetrative intelligence aud spirit-
nality which mark German art lie seemed to add
a grace and elrgauco commonly wanting in it.
Ills great alilueDce and i icility have not made
him careless, and everything lrom his pencil is
delicate, retined, aud exquisite, without lacking
dignity and force. He seems to possess a most
tender appreciation of childhood and woman
hood, and no modern artist, to my eye, throws
such grace and elegance about the human Bgure.
It was like meeting an old trieud to see the great
artist in his studio. His manly form is robust
and eiect, the bloom of health is in his cheek,
gentleness and power in his eye, case and .race
in bis manners, and all softened by seventy years
of an existence which cau have had tew idle
hours. He sat, as we entered, before his ease),
at work upon the drawing of the loves ol two
characters in one of tbe very old German Mln
nesinpers. The outh and sentiaient of the
picture suggested "the power which peuius pos
fcces ot carrying its owu youth with it into
exlremest aae; and Kaulbach is really as young
as ever in feeling and in the nature and huud
f his subiects. He shewed us several of
his more recent pictures, and especially one
elegant portrait of a Copenhagen merchant,
full of power and beauty. He talks with free
dom and cbarmiiiK insight about America,
which interested him, as it does most Germans,
who seem the only people capable of looking at
countries with relerence to the idea they
Ftaud for, and their relations tohumau progress.
He bade us not to expect a period of art iu
America until we had got further through with
the great and heroic period which gives art
its inspiration and its subjects. He thought the
late American war would in some future time be
a proline source of artistic ideas and themes;
but artistic eras come they canuot be made.
