(New York Evening Sun.] The idols of history and tradition are being smashed right and left in our material day. Even granting Bunf home's asser tiou that Art stopped short in the cultivated eourt- Of the Empress Josephine, it is evident that the San of our ae caraiito iDfo. • :^tion is still increasing William Tell i. u been denied tho poor boo i of place in history; even the authenticity of Mother Goose has been impugned. And now comes Prince Roland Bonaparte and says that some indefinite Chinaman land ed in America long before the Colum 4 bus family had produced their favor ite * son. At this rate the discoverer of Arner ica will soon become like Mrs- Harris, of whom tbei 1 t > at Sairey Gamp remarked that sho ‘‘didn't believe that there was no such a person." Prince Bonaparte bases his Mon golian theory upon the fact that an ancient Mexican mounment is engrav ed with a certain symbol common in China as expressing the idea of pbysi cal perfection It resembles an el ongated letu - - ’aid ou its side, and intersected by.-.; uorizontal line. Herbert Spencer notes the fact that certain picture writings having resorce to conceptions of Deity or to great natural laws are frequently seen to be common, though found in the remains of distinct and separate races. This particular symbol can be traced without difficulty iD its Ameri can development till we find it to day the type of the highest ambition in the life of many men. In its pie sent modified shame—§—it is recog nizod as the most powerful fetich known to our civilization. Moreover, it has been called ‘‘Almighty’’ by no less careful a thinker and antiquary than Washington Irving, thus recall ing the old idea &f diviaity.

It is a common mistake to suppose that an angry bee is certain to sting on alight¬ ing upon a human hand. .On the con¬ trary, she will always examine the skin very carefully first with the palpi— very delicate and nervous feeling organs, wh55h are situated near tho sting. It may seem that she stings at once, and without care or reflection; but a bee can do a great deal in a very short space of time, in proof of which it may be men¬ tioned that “she can flap her wings more than 400 times per second, and that each flap involves the extension and contrac¬ tion, through a nerve impulse, of the muscles employed in the wing move¬ ments.” This being Die case, as Mr. Cheshire says, “we shall see at once that tho ‘no time’ difficulty is removed.” When a person lias been stung by a bee, he should remove the sting immediately, “if possible, by the nail, running it in the direction opposite to that by which it has entered.” On no account lot him take hold of the sting with Iris thumb and finger or a forceps, for then ho will probably squeeze more of the virus into the wound from the poison bag, which is generally left attached to the sting. Although tho virus of a bee sting is a strong acid, it does not always follow that an alkali will cure it. Much depends upon [the temperament and constitution of tho patient, and while arnica mon- tana and ledum palustro will give relief in many cases, in others they are in¬ jurious. Wo may discuss the subject of bee stings by giving the young beekeeper two pieces of comfort—the first, that at swarming times bees are nearly always in an exceedingly good temper; the sec¬ ond, that each time he is stung ho will probably become less susceptible to the effects of bee poison.—Saturday Review.

A ghostly ship sails on a ghostly moo.

My longing heart sails with them as they go, Anxious as they, and heavy with their woe; Where is the peaceful shore we long to find— The waves are stormy and the path is blind— The distant sky shuts in the distant sea— What star of promise holds the dark for met What star of promise bolds the dork for thee I Answer, stern pilot of this phantom sail— Const thou be sure thy compass will not fail! —Louise Chandler Moulton In Youth’s Compan¬ ion. _ {Cnrepealed English Laws.
