THE FRENCH CAGE.
A Sampls of Royal Tyranny In tho
Eighteenth Century.
Pubourg’s real name was Victor
tie la Cassagne, a journalist of Hol¬
land, who had taken the liberty of
censuring the acts of the king of
France, Louis XV. This criticism
appeared in a public print at Frank¬
fort. Although he was living be¬
yond the borders of French terri¬
tory at Leyden, in Holland, he was
not safe from the emissaries of
Louis. The agents of the royal po¬
lice succeeded in gaining possession
of his person and conveying him to
Mont St. Michel. There he was
confined iu the cage.
Touched by Ids supplications, the
prior of the abbey consented to
send a letter to his wife at Leyden,
the mother of four children, ac¬
quainting her with the fact that lie
wns alive, but entombed in the cells
of Mont St. Michel. He was cer¬
tainly entombed! Overcome by de¬
spair and by the sufferings and pri¬
vations which he had endured, Du
bourg died in the night of Aug. 27.
1746. In the morning his body was
found almost devoured by a legion
of rats.
The state papers contain an ac¬
count of the burial of “the body of
a man named Dubourg, aged about
36 years, who died in a cage situated
In the castle of the town, where he
had been detained by the order of
his majesty.” It is creditable to
the humanity of Charles X that
when he visited the island fortress
as Count d’Artois in 1777 he order¬
ed the cage to be destroyed. This
command was not carried out,
though the cage was no longer used
ns a place of confinement until
Louis Philippe visited Mont St.
Michel in 1837, when he caused it
to be broken up before his eyes.
The present cage is a restoration
and exact representation of this
ancient relic of barbaric tyranny.—

Bears the The Kind You Have Always
Signature
of
Locust Porridge.
The everyday life of a Basuto
village is a very simple affair when
compared with the life of a British
village. Take, for instance, the
food supply. Porridge is made of
mealies and thickened and flavored
with sour milk (mafi) or herbs, and
it is seldom that a Mosuto—Basuto
in the singular becomes Mosuto—
comes to his meal leaving his appe¬
tite behind.
Another standard dish is locust
porridge, a plentiful supply being
kept up by the constant showers of
locusts, which are veritable god¬
sends to the natives in a country
where food is very scarce. The Ba¬
suto collect tons and tons of these
insects and carefully store them,
first pulling off the heads and
wings. As occasion requires, they
place quantities in large pots and
boil them until soft and pulpy, fla¬
voring the porridge with fat and
making it savory with salt.
The locust to an unprejudiced
European is not unpalatable, closely
resembling the shrimp in taste,
though scarcely so nice. Greatly
ns the Mosuto appreciates stewed
locust, he likes still better the young
green maize stewed and served with
melted butter, and certainly not the
most fastidious could desire a more
delicious food.—Chambers’ Journal.
