Fred Grace,, a Sheepshead Bay butcher, has a horse upon whish a delicate surgical operation has been performed. There are few similar eases on record. The horse some time ago' was troubled with its right eye, A film grow over the pupil and the horse became nervous an'd at times unmanageable. Dr, William Sheppard, a veterinary e geon, examined the eye yesterday s d found a case of what is known as "snake in' the eye." When the film was removed, aura enaugh there was a little wriggler. An incision was made in the corner 'of the eye next to the nostrils and a small silver hook was imbedded. When the little snake got near enough he was hooked and drawn aut. The snake was 3i inches long and not larger than a horsehair. Its Read resembles that of an- anaconda in its general features. It was placed in a bottle of alcohol and will be sent to a medical laboratory at Glasgow, Soot - laud. It is thought the horse will lose the sight of the e,ye, but is fortun- ate to survive the operation, es snake in the eye is looked upon by old horse- men as fatal. A SMOULDERING REBELLION. Quebec is not flourishing. Progress is making headway elsewhere in the Dominion, but Quebec proceeds so slowly that its relative place in the North American advance is almost as if it were standing still. An old race, working with old methods on old and worn lands, is an anachronism in the nineteenth-century movement. Nevertheless, this is French Canada of to day—very much the same French Canada that stood in the way of the English two centuries ago. It is not true, of course, that nine- teenth century influences have not affected the simple and interesting people who dwell along the shores of the St. Lawrence, but it is absolutely true that the great majority of them are very like their ancestors of the seven- teenth century. The disintegrating enlighenwen; of modern life is beginn- ing to exert its power. A few of the French Canadiana are rebelling against the burdens of their church. Fewer still are turning towards Protestantism. Among the quick and clever lawyers, doctors, and politicians of the race there is growing up a set of radicals and free -thinkers. This group has existed for a long time. Some of the narnes now prominent in French in• tellectual circles in Montreal are to be found attached to the annexation cir- cular of 1848, The group is increas- ing in numbers, and although it is still very far front being an important political power, it has ite daily and weekly press, and furnishes leading statesmen and orators to the Liberals both of the Dominion and the prov- ince. Far more important than all other inIuencee is that wich ie exerted -by the emigrants who have made their way into the United States.

There are plenty of signs that the end of tha domination of authority in Quebec, priestly end political, is coming.

LOWELL'S PERENNIAL YOUTH. He never grew old. The spiiit of youth was inviucible in him. Life battered at the defences of youth with heavy &Ytillery of trial and sorrow, but they did not yield. His healthy tam• perament res'eted with success. The death of his first wife, after nine years of happy life, was a desperate grief, but it did not break hint down, and after some years he married a sin, and renewed his happiness and his your in so doing. From that time on for almost thirty years he remained one of the youngest -hearted of men. When he was sixty-two years old he declared that the figures were misplaced, they should read twenty•six ; and in ono cf the last years of his life, as he was pass ing a hospital for incurable children, turning to his componiou he said, " There's where they'll send me ono of these days." IIe was in his sixty ninth year when he wrote : " But life is sweet, though all that wakes it sweet Leaden like sounds of trirnds' departing feet, For me Fate gave, whate'er she else denied, A nature sloping to the southern side." And there the sun lay warm, and every morning renewed for hire, with daily miracle, the youth of the world within him and without. --From "Jaynes Rus- sell Lowell," by Charles Eliot Norton, in HARrEtt's Mao. zr:sa for 'May , COFFINS FOR TIGHT WAISTS. It was said that at the first London drawing room this year the Queen re- ceived the wife and daughter of the Chinese ;ambassador. There was noth- tonieher came in the sentence in which ing remarkable about that. It merely read like a society note. The as - it was stated that by special permission, they were alto ,ved to be seated 'in the royal presence, because their tiny feet would not support them in a standing position for any length of time. Somebody said, "That's a great deal worse than tight clothing"; but I don't know. One can live without walk- ing, but it is still necessary and fashionable to breathe. Her gracious majesty was kind enough to provide chairs for the deformedChinese, but lunge for her deformed British sub- jects are a little beyond her. In place of chairs, the pale -face, gasping, tigbt- lacers are, of necessity, provided with— coffins. —One of the roust amusing cases ever heard at Wiudsor was Iam v. Fleury, an action for breach of promise of marriage. The lady who wanted to be married was aged 70 and the prospective groom up- wards of 60. The aged couple had met at a friend's houseand during even the first hour of their acquaint- ance the spirit moved them, they retired to the little parlor, and she said it was unanimously agreed that if they meant business it was wise that they should proceed without delay. "And the bargain was he said he would marry me if I could borrow $10." In a few days time the old gentleman's ardor had weakened, he regretted his promise,and conclued that the courtship had been a little to swift. Finally he backed right, out. The old lady's daudor was up, he had stolon her heart and she wanted cash. When the old lady was asked if she loved him still she paused, he dropped his head and slightly turned from her, but ehe peaked around, looked wistfully into his eyes and confessed. Proceeding, ehe said she wanted to marry, and it was somewhat doubtful if this would not be the last chance. Even with all this coaxing the old gentleman's heart could not be moved, and the jury agreed that as ii price for his aged flirtation they would award $25. A Popular Competition.

Cholera caa• not attack the healthy. —The inquest held at Cyrrille, near Ottawa, last Wednesday night in the °use of Mrs. Chamhers, whose husband returned on Saturday night after a four years' absence and found her dead in bed with a newly born babe by her side, elicited the fact that while Cham- bers was away the. Scharff family not only absorbed the substance of the farm, but spent the larger part of the $100 a month which Chainbers remit- ted to his wife ae part of hie earnings. The testimony of the doctors and of neighbors pretty clearly established the fact that the woman had died an hour before her husband's return', and that her death was not due, as sup• posed, to the shock occasioned by his arrival. Jim Scharff, who is supposed to be the party responsible for Mrs. Chambers' downfall, has fled the country. IIe was on the way to Mre. Chambers' house when he was told that her husband had arrived from Montana. Thereupon he turned his horse towards the city and has not since been heard of. A I'ROM PT CURE.
