Belgian Govern- A question relative to the preserva- tion of the land of Waterloo in its pre- sent state having been asked in the Bel- gian Chamber, the Government of that country have just replied that the sub- ject is under consideration. There is an idea (mooted, it is believed, by those having property on the field) that 2‘ t would be a good‘lhin-g to buy up the historic plain and keep itin its pres-cut condition, the various farms, ctc., lzeing secured and preserved. It is difficult to see exactly what good purpose can be served by such an ac- ion, for the field itself has been entirely changed since the battle was fought, and the Duke of Wellington exclaimed, when, some time after the erection of the great mound, he looked forth over the country which had seen such great deeds on all sides, “They have changed all my battlefield.” It would seem that a certain group of persons have bought up, or have "c- cured promise of possession of, many of theW-alerloo farms, and they are, therefore, financially interesth in the preservation of the field of Waterloo as it is, since this would mean expropria- tion at their own prices. That this is so ivould seem to be proved by the fact that the movers are principally Belgians. English pcoplo are apparently but Ili- They fccl, perhaps, that the preservation of 'the nation’s battlefields all over the worldwvould be a rather onerous unâ€" dertaking, and probably consider that while Hougoumont, with its splendid memories, remains untouchedâ€"and, as this belongs to one of the loading Bel- gian families, there is small fear of its 1 YOUR OVERGDATS I [filed Suit: would look behind ed.

There was never a more conscientious young man than Eben Scale, and when he found how much absorbed he had be- come with the mere idea of playing in the town band, he consulted his minis- ter. “Do you reckon I could give up all that. time to music without falling from grace?” he asked anxiously. The good old Methodist had a saving sense of humor. He saw that his parish- ioner was much distressed between his wishes and his conscience. but the minis- ter smiled on him, nevertheless. “It's the horn you’re asked to play, I hear,” he said. “Ever had much exper- ience with it, Eben?” . “Never tried it but once, but I like the sound of it first-rate,” said the young man. “M’m!” said the minister. “Well, I think you needn’t be afraid of falling from grace on account of it, but I do hope you‘ll manage things so your fam- ily and neighbors won’t have to pass through the fiery temptation of hearing you practise too often, Eben."

CHILDREN AS ASSETS. Are Much Sought for by Spanish Beg- ' gars. Quite a flourishing trade is done by the poorer classes of Madrid, who let out their children to beggars at so much per hour. The intending hirer applies to the parents of a likely child, the price is agreed upon, a small amount paid down as a guarantee for the return of the little one, and the beggar forihwlth sets out with his human implement of trade to implore the public charity. ’ The children whose task it is to soft- en the hearts of the passersâ€"by are re- quired to possess sp’ecial qualifications. They must have hungry-looking faces, be first-rate ,criers and not very ugly; for a. good-looking child is more likely to ram extra p nni-es on account or its pretty face than a less favored competi- tor. While the professional beggar and his hapless charge wearlly walk the streets of Spain’s capital, the father of the child, comfortably seated in a tav- ern hard by his home, proudly remarks to his better half, as he contentedly sips his wine:â€"' “What a splendid career our Joey has before him!
