My host discourses of the litter of pigs just arrived from the Great Nowhere, and dilates upon the fact that of the 3,423,807 pigs in England no two tails are curled alike. Perhaps even so no two nightingales curl their phrase identically, and one roulade differeth from another in glory. Decidedly the Parisian atmosphere is charged with artistic electricity.

And Theodoret, writing of the years about 423, says that many went to the Holy Land from the extreme West, Spaniards, and Britons, and the Galatae who dwelled between them.

During the same period the expenditures of the Post-Office Department amounted to $1,169,885.51 and consisted of the following items, viz: Compensation to post masters, $353,995.98; incidental expenses, $30,866.37; transportation of the mail, $784,600.08; payments into the Treasury, $423.08.

He seems to have been a man of worth and distinguished attainments, and Cardan gives an interesting account of him in Geniturarum Exempla, p. 423. De Vita Propria, ch. xxix. p. 75. Cardan refers more than once to the generosity of the Archbishop. CARDAN, as he has himself related, arrived at Edinburgh on June 29, 1552.

He was elected United States Senator from Connecticut in 1857, and was re-elected in 1863. 423, 425, 495, 548. NATHAN F. DIXON, son of a Senator of the same name, was born in Westerly, Rhode Island, May 1, 1812, and graduated at Brown University in 1833. After attending the Law Schools at New Haven and Cambridge, he was admitted to the bar in 1837.

The Legate, the Sixteen, and the doctors of the Sorbonne, alike favoured this election, and the negotiations proceeded so far that the Spaniards and Neapolitans in Paris rendered him regal honours. Sully, Mém. vol. iv. pp. 128, 129. Daniel, vol. vii. p. 423. Mézeray, vol. x. p. 219. Elisabeth de France, who married in 1615 Philip IV of Spain. Bassompierre, Mém. p. 26.

See, too, "L'autorité historique de Ph. de Commynes," Mandrot, Rev. The king apparently never resented the part played by Dammartin when he was dauphin. See poem, ibid., 423. The MS. in the Laurentian Library at Florence bears this line: "Here follows a mystery made because of the said peace of good intention in the thought that it would be observed by the parties."

The fact that He is alive inspires us with strength and hope; but it is by the memory of His death that He is commended to the trust of our burdened consciences and the love of our sympathetic hearts. Deut. xxi. 22, 23. "Crurifragium, as it was called, consisted in striking the legs of the sufferer with a heavy mallet" FARRAR, Life of Christ, ii., 423.

That occurred in 423 B.C., and, as a writer has well said, "evaporated with the laugh" having nothing to do with the sad fate of the guiltless philosopher twenty-four years after.

One of the Greek historians, Eusebius, writing about 315, appears to say that Britain was Christianised by some of the disciples; and another, Theodoret, about 423, names the Britons among those who were persuaded to receive the laws of the Crucified, by "our fishermen and publicans."
