RONHTIG'S MADONNA.
Sonntag, tbe well-known Western land-
leaps artist, tells tills good one on lilmself.
In bis early days, before be found bis true
vocation In landscape painting, be aspired
to tbs glory of historical and blgh art.
Environed by the bitter poverty of an art
student, be painted bis ideal. It was a
Madonna, and, as be now says, one of tbe
wont ever painted. It was so bad, in fact,
that it would more readily have passed for
a portrait of a sbe-devll than of tbe mother
of Heaven. When be got it done he
pawned his only deoont coat to raise $7.50
for a frame, and sent the alleged picture to
an art auction. He spent the day walking
aronnd and calculating what he would do
with the thousands the great work would
bring him in. Then he called at the auo
tion room to collect. Had the picture been
sold ? It had, Bald the clerk. How niuoh ?
Five dollars and a half.
Bonntag dined on a free lunch and went
to bed In the dark.
Years afterward, when be had become a
famous and prosperous man, be was on a
sketching tour in the Wabash River conn
try. He stopped at a little wayside tavern
to get a drink. In the obscurity behind
the dingy bar hung one of the most execra
ble pictures he bad ever seen. Memory
gave a reminiscent start at sight of it. It
was bis Madonna 1
"I'll give you ten dollars for that paint
ing," be Bft(d to the landlord.
"Not much, you won't."
"Fifteen."
"Nary fifteen."
"I'll tell yon what I'll do, then. That
daub only cost you five dollars and a half.
"I know it."
" Well, I'll give you twenty-five if you'll
let me go behind the bar and cut it to
pieces."
"Stranger," observed tbe landlord, "I
daren't do it. It would be as much as my
life is worth. You see, my wife aud me
have awful bad tempers. AVe average
three fights a day. And it would amount
to a stabbing match, only when we're so
far gone we can't control ourselves, we
come out here, look at that picture, have a
good laugh, and make it all up. I put it to
yon as a white man, now, would you sell
it?"
Sonutag paid for his whisky aud left.
HOW SHE MET IIEIt HE A IT.
Lord Lyltcm defines a selfish man in one
of his novels as oue who would burn down
bis neighbor's bouse to boll his eggs for
breakfast. Clemence Broissler, a young
peasant girl, aged sixteen, serves to illus
trate this theory. She fell in love with a
peasant boy of her own age in a neighbor
ing village, and as the beautiful Hero
lighted her torch on her watch tower at
Sestos to attract Leander, so did this dam
sel Bet fire to ricks, barns and cottages to
draw Honiara to her village, and then, dur
ing the confusion, she contrived to get
stolen interviews with her lover. The
fires became as fast and frequent as in tbe
Chinese village when Ho-ti and Bo-bo first
accidentally burned down the cottage where
the sow had farrowed and first tasted crack,
ling. Fires blazed forth wherever a sow
farrowed in every pig-stye and cottage.
Mile. Broissler struck a lucifer in the
thatch whenever she felt a desire to meet
her sweetheart. Inquiries were instituted,
and the damBel was sentenced to ten years
bard labor, but as the Frenoh laws do not
permit the infliction of this penalty on fe
males, she will be shut np for a decade in
tbe central prison for females at Clermont
Ferrand. ,
AN ATHLETE t'FTIJIO A MAN AND
A HORSE.
Some astounding feats are being per
formed by a French athlete, Joiguery by
name, who is at present fulfilling-to crowd
ed houses an engagement in the Berlin
Vaudeville Theatre, Tossing about huge
cannon balls with sportive grace, this per
son appears nightly on a raised platform in
the body of a theatre, above which plat
form is suspended an ordinary trapeze.
His ankles are then fastened to the tra
peze, so that be swings head downward a
few feet above the surfaoe of the central
stage, and in full-view of every one in the
house, A horse, oovered with gay trap
pings and begirt with a broad leathern sur
cingle, to which two strong loops are at.
tached, is then conveyed to the stage, and
there mounted by a full-grown man. When
all these preliminaries have been effected,
Joiguery seizes the loops in both bands,
and by sheer muscular strength lifts the
"horse and rider" some inches off the
stage, sustaining their oombined weight in
the air for several seconds, and letting them
down again as slowly and evenly as he had
raised them.
AN ONION-BITING PARTY.
At an onion party in Rockland reoently,
a wicked brunette played a high game for
kisses. ' At a party of this description it is
customary for the girls to go into a dark
ened room, when one of the party bites a
mouthful from an onion. A young man is
then admitted and it is his proud privilege
to kiss the batch of girls until he is enabled
by tbe taste to determine which one of theni
bit the fragrant fruit. The brunette afore
mentioned, in this case slipped the onion
iuto her pocket, instead of biting it, aud
the spruce Boston drummer who was stum
moncd to tent and find, bad kissed five
times around the circle, aud was begin
ning again, when a girl, whose jealous lover
was outside, discovered the trick and the
game was up.
OtD JOURNALISM.
Ws have all .beatd a good deal about an
tiquities In the shape of fossil newspapers
published in England when Journalism was
in its Infancy. But it will, perhaps, be
new to many readers to know what was
the condition of the periodical press in
France and Oormany a hundred years ago.
It was about this time that a curious ex
ample was afforded in Prussia of a news
paper bestowed gratuitously on those by
whom it was expected to be read. The
journal in question was addressed "To
every father of a family," and was, no
doubt, full of admirable advice for the
guidance of the recipients. The Gauiois,
which records this fact, gives also a sketch
of one of the French weekly papers, printed
In 1780, or thereabouts, and from that time
forward through the earlier days of tbe
revolutionary period. This is the "Mer.
cury of France," which was a weekly jour
nal of the oharacter now called "officious,"
and did not pretend to be innocent of gov-
ernment influences. It was published on
Saturday, and each number is said to have
contained no less than one hundred smal
octavo pages, which were equally divided
between borne and foreign intelligence.
Literature made up the principal part of it,
and each number invariably began with a
copy of verses, besides containing other
poetio effusions of very various merit,
These, as well as many of the articles, were
for a long time composed in a paBtornl, if
cot bucolic style, aud were full of .mild
allusions to ths beauties of nature and the
tender passions of shepherdesses. Even at
the Btirring moment when the Bastile was
being stormed, the editors of the Mcrcurt
were calmly and delightfully engaged in in
diting rhapsodies upon the charms of cottage
life among the perfumes of theheather,and
near the branches "on which Pbilomenn
bad , established herself ." Polemical
writing was unknown, and attacks upon a
contemporary were as rare as they are now
common in the ranks of the Gallio press.
The revolution brought political discussion
into vogue, but not in anything like its
present shape, for while the Constituent
was sitting it was forbidden to the editors
to make any reflection or commentary upon
the debates they bad reported. And when
any event occurred over which the govern
ment was disposed to draw a veil as in the
instance of the revolution at Geneva in
1789 strict orders were given to the press
"not to say a word about it." London

ANBCDOTR OF THACKERAY.
It is related of Thackeray that, being very
desirous to see a "Bowery boy," he went
with a friend into the haunts of that peon
liar creature to look for one. Very soon
bis companion pointed out to him a genu
ine speoimen, standing on the corner of a
street, against a lamp-post, red-shirted,
black-trowsered, soap-locked, shiny-hatted,
with a cigar in mouth elevated at an angle
of forty-five degrees.
After contemplating him for a few mo
ments, Thackeray said to his friend that he
would like to talk to the fellow, and asked
if he might do so.
"Surely," be was told ; " go to him, and
ask him to direct yon somewhere."
. Thereupon Thackeray approaohed, and
said, politely t
"My friend, I should like to go to "
such a plaoe.
" Well," replied the Bowery boy, in his
peouliar tones, and without moving any.
thing but his lips, as he looked np lazily at
the tall, gray-haired novelist "well, son.
ny, yon can go, if you won't stay toolong."
Thaokeray was satisfied.
THE WHIPPING-POST.
Offloial whippings are continued regu.
larly at Newcastle, DeL, aud are regarded
as a matter of course by the residents,
though strangers are sometimes shocked
by the sight. On the last whipping day
five convicted thieves were punished. The
first was a German, who was not severely
lashed, and he walked away smiling. The
second was a miserable tramp, who bore
the ordeal without flinching. Two negroes,
who came next, writhed and muttered un
der the pain of severe blows. The fifth
was a boy of 15. He was so frightened
that it was neoessary to force him to the
post, and at the first stroke he desperately
freed himself by pulling his hands out of
the staples.'. A bandkerohief was used to
fasten him, but he got loose again before
the prescribed twenty blows were com
pleted, and pathetically begged the Sheriff
not to strike so hard. Exckunw.

A REMARKALE PDBIICAR,
Two nolioes, framed, glazed and sus
pended upon the walU of a dram-shop on
the New Canal at St. Petersburg, close to
Madame Sassetskl's "Refuge for tbe Home
less," are reckoned among tbe eurlosif.es
of the Russian capital ' by a well-known
writer in the Golos. They run as follows)
"I exhort the gentlemen who honor my
establishment with their patronage to forego
robbery and theft while within the pre
cincts, not to thrash one another, and on
the whole, not to make unpleasant noises.
Those who act in contravention to this
warning will receive punishment in my
dram-shop of a sort that they will experi
ence no difficulty In feeling."
The seoond notice affords a quaint con
trast to the first, which enwraps a hideous
throat in exquisitely courteous phrases,
while the native benevolcnoe of the ecoen
trio dram-seller shines out generally in the
following kindly advertisement!
"As soon as the cold and rainy weather
shall set in, five copecks will be here ad
vanced to each needy and weary man, that
he may pay for a bed whereon to rest his
body."
It appears that the author of these re
markable notices faithfully adheres to the
text of both. If his customers misconduct
themselves he lays into them with a cud
gel ; but any poor wretch presenting him
self after eight in the evening for assist
ance receives the promised five copecks,
after he bos exhibited bis legitimation
papers and listened to a short exhortation,
read aloud to him from a religious book.
A CURIOUS ROMANCE IN REAL
J.IF1S. ,
A curious romanoe in real life has, ao
oording to a Madras paper, lately been
brought to light in Bangalore. Many years
ago a corporal in a battery of artillery lo
cated in that station married an East In
dian girl, whose parents and relatives re
sided there, but being sent home, bis yonng
wife accompanied him. Shortly after his
arrival in England he deserted, and a body
being found floating in the Thames, was
identified as the levanting corporal and
buried. His wife, believing her husband to
be dead, having Indeed identified the
corpse, married another husband ; he died,
she married again; the third husband
died, and she is now living with a store ser
geant in the ordnance lines, Madras.
Shortly after the arrival of the wing of the
Thirteenth Regiment in Bangalore, a ser
geant happened to espy a photograph of
tbe man who was supposed to have died
and been buried many years ago. He at
once said he knew him, and on being told
he could not as he had been dead many
years, he replied that the identical indi
vidual was at, that moment in Bellary, and
paymaster clerk of the Thirteenth Regi
ment. On this statement the' photograph
was sent from one man to another; all iden
tified it as being the likeness of the real
Simon Pure, and as a last step it was for
warded to the adjutant, who also agreed
that it was the paymaster clerk. Ample
evideuoe having been produoed, the pay
master clerk is now a prisoner at Bellary,
having given himself np as a deserter.
SO.VIK FACTS ABOUT AUSTRALIA.
Australia with Tasmania, is only a little
less iu4tize than Europe. The hottest cli
mate iu the world probably occurs in tha
desert iuterior of Australia. Captain Stuart
bung a thermometer on a tree shaded both
from sun and wind. It was graduated to
127" F., yet so great was the heat of the air
that the mercury rose till it burst the tube,
aud the temperature must thus have been
at least 128 F., apparently the highest
ever reoorded iu auy part of the world.
For three months Captain Stuart found
the mean temperaturo to be over 101s F.
in the shade. Nevertheless on tbe southern
mountains and tablelands three feet of snow
sometimes fulls in a day. Snow storms
have been known to last three weeks, the
snow lying from four to fifteen feet in
depth and burying the cattle. Australia is
a laud of drought and flood. Tbe annual
rainfall at Sydney has varied from twenty,
two to twenty-eight inches. Lake George,
near Goulburn, was, iu 1824, twenty miles
long aud eight miles broad. It gradually'
shrank till in 1837 it became quite dry,
aud its bottom was converted into a grassy
plain. In 18(i." it was a lake again, seven,
teen feet deep ; two years later it was only
two feet deep, aud iu 187C it was twenty
feet iu depth.
ONE KIND OF A MIRACLE.
The Deuttclie Zcitung prints the following
In the report of a village school inspection.
The examiner is trying to explain to the
fat-headed listeners the character of a mira
cle. He asks a scholar :
"What is a miracle?"
"I don't know, sir."
"If all at onoe the sun appeared in

" The moon,"
" But, if you were told it was the sun,
what would you say ? "
"I'd say it was a He."
"Now, I never lie. Suppose I told you
it was the sun ? "
The icholur, after a moment's deep re
flection, bobbed his head.
"Please, air, I'd say you were drunk."
A I.N4iKHl 8 LANDSLIP.
An 'Eye-Wltiiess". sends, to the flatter
Narhrickten an account of the earthalip
which has so jeopardized the existenoo of
Vilznau, Switzerland. Tbe danger was
first perceived early one morning recently
when great masses of rock fell from the
side of the Itigl, which rises above tbe vil
lage, pushing before them a considerablo
breadth of cultivated land, many trees and
loose stones, the whole finally lodging on a '
marshy slope at the foot of the mountain
path from Vilznau to Schaldegg. Tbe
Immense weight of this mass of matter
pressed from the soil near it large quanti
ties of slime, which, together with pieces of
rock and small stones, eotnpletoly filled up
the bed of the Dossenhaoh, in which, how-
ever, atths time there was very little water.
At first no danger was apprehended, nod it
was only when the stream of slime, earth,
stones and water, creeping slowly down
ward, reached the bridge on the road f ro c
Vitznau to Gersau, that an alarm wr.s
given. Then the tocsin was rung, help
sent for in hot haste to Lucerne, and means
taken to keep the danger at bay pending
the arrival of relnforoemeuts. The Gersan
bridge was destroyed to facilitate the pas
sage of the river of mud. Trees were cut
down, abattls made and temporary parapets
raised to oonflne the slimy stream within its
banks and proteot the village from the Im
pending deluge. Meanwhile other parties
of workers out channels to permit tbe out
flow of the liquid matter into the lake. and.
wrought hard to clear the bed of the Doa
senbaoh of the stones with which it is en
cumbered. It Is hoped that these measure
will be effeotual, albeit the danger is far
from being over, and several times tbe too
sin has been again sounded, aud the vil
lagers warned to be ready to quit their
bouses on short notice. A singularcircum--stance
is that at the moment of the fall of
the rock from the Rigi, the shore of the
lake at the embouchure of the Dosseubach
sank considerably, so that the stream will
now fall, Instead of flowing, into the lake
as heretofore. This occurrence tends to
confirm the theory that the earthslip was
caused by an earthquake.
WHEN WERE TROUSERS FIRST
WORN IN ENGLAND.
It is generally known to us middle-aged
men, by "tradition," that breeches began
to give place to trousers during the first
decade of the present century, but it is not
generally known that trousers were actually
worn by London exquisites in the latter
years of the last century. "It will be ob

of Classio and Polite Literature,"

LANDSEER AND THE LIONS.
It is now more than fifty years since I
made the acquaintance of a Mr. Christmas,
himself an animal-painter. He told me
that he and Laodseer used to study to
gether, and that they used to go to Mr.
Cross's menagerie, at Exeter Change, and
there sketch and paint the animals then
exhibited. The monkeys first claimed their,
attention, and the study culminated in the
"Monkeyana." They next studied tha
lions, and one coble animal especially
claiming attention, they both sketched aud
painted him. On its death, A. Cross pre
sented them with tha carcass, which the
removed to their studio, and again studied
as long as possible. The skin was after
ward preserved and stuffed. They then
dissected the body. The skeleton was ar
ticulated, and set np, and formed the ob
ject of future drawing and study. From
this painstaking study of the lion and his
anatomy arose those splendid pictures,
"Van Amburgh in the Lions' Den" aud
the " Dead Lion of the Desert," and tha
numerous pictures of this animal which
were exhibited in the Academy from time
to time. The prostrate lions at the base of
the Nelson monument in Trafalgar square
were further illustrations of Sir Edwiu's
profound knowledge of the anatomy of tha
ion's paw, for though at first tha world
censure dt yet it was ultimately confessed
that tha modeling was perfect I do not
know what , become of Mr. Christmas, my
informant, but he told me that he felt so
thoroughly outpaced by his great rival that"
be should give up the race. 2otes ami
