We had fears that 18C7 wts not golpg to present "ns with a leader for the flock f usual " mediocrity. But the arrival of 'A Painter's Camp" has secured na a Work worthy of preference above all competitors. We are not addicted to enthusiasm, but the ' Ittle work before.us is realty go full of good faints that we grow admiring as to ap pear almost fi'gome in its praise. If Mr. JIamerton ' M g00d a painter as he is a wri,r and is as happy in his sketches with "la 'pencil as he is with his pen, we feel cure his works would bear off the prizes at the Royal Academy. There are works fitted for winter and there are works fitted for sum mer, the same as there is clothing fitted for each season. The kind which finds most favor taring the warm months is that which is least customary, which possesses what we may call m air of nfgligt, which does not take mental nergy to understand. The roving record of Eamerton is a model of its class. It ignores tjl conventionalities, and deals only with mature and natural things. lie tells ns how fee 'spent his time in camping out, and his amative is so pure in style and so happy in expression that we seem to be with him in his adventures, and to see the sights which with graphic pen he depicts. lie is peculiarly fcappy in his description of out-door life, although not without its inconveniences. The Lancashire peasants annoyed him greatly by their, inquisitive curiosity. Not understand ing what possible object the artist could have in spending his time in painting little bits of canvas with unintelligible pictures on them, they greatly doubted his sanity, and agreed that at all events he was an object to be Strictly watched. On this point he says: "I ean fully understand the refined tortures f a monkey ol modest disposition exhibited in menagerie. I am like one of Wombwell'a animals, shown dally, without either pleasure or profit to himself, to a pitiless crowd at a vil lage fair; but I have the peculiar dlsadvanlageof understanding the language in which the va rious commentaries on ray person are ex pressed. "My plate glass windows are exceedingly con venient, since they allow the publlo to inspect the animal at Its usual occupations; most In teresting observations in natural history being thus rendered possible, as lu the case of the Class beehives at the French Universal Exhibi tion. From frequent observations of this kind, anade with the utmost care by several eminent soologlsts, it appears that I, the animal in ques tion, am not of a Kreg-arious disposition: that I oat the flesh of birds and other animals, Dut not In a raw state: and that I am remarkable for aay industry, being continually occupied with a kind of labor wboH object and utility are still the subleot of various learned conjectures. The important question whether I am acquainted With the tue or nre is not yet satisfactorily set tled, but there are reasons for supposing that I auny since the flesh I devour has evidently been objected td the action of heat. Still this ques tion remains somewhat obscure, no trace what ever of fuel having been discovered in my cell, Bior any onuoo ior tue oaoaps 01 smoae. "Years henoe, when this is printed, the reader Will think these passages exaggerated: he will not-belleve that I am stared at like a wild beast. I tell blm that the manners of a set of villagers to an itinerant brown bear are pleasant r and anoM courteous, and in every way less intole rable, than the manners of these Lancashire smtf Yorkshire clowns are to me. "Take last Bunday as an example. I was walk ing on the moor, with my dog, and rested ou the hill whence I could see the hut. Groups began to collect about it soon, and when it was time to lunch I had to make my way through a Utile crowd of forty spectators, who did not eem in the least disposed to abdicate the seats they had taken possession of when the prin cipal attraction came upon the scene. Any pro perly disposed dog would have resented this Impudence, but mine walked pleasantly up to the forty spectators, and wagged a canine 'Welcome. ' As for me, being hungry, I got Into any hut as quickly as possible, shut the door, and put up the little green curtains. I could .bear very plainly alt the lively talk out aide, and was soon aware that the crowd was Increasing fast. I had a cold grouse or a partridge to lunch, I forget which; but I re member it was unfortunately necessary to get it from the meat safe outside, and the In numerable observations that this simple action give rise to, were really wonderful in ttielr variety and Interest. But to be so near the animal at feeding-time, and not to see it feed, was a bitter disappointment I Fifty or sixty of the spectators (their numbers had now Im mensely increased) attempted, therefore, to obtain a view through the four windows, but Without much success, on aooount of the cur tains. One man, however, effected the dis covery that, through a crevloe between the cur tain and the window-frame a portion of my neck was visible, and forth wltn there were twenty candidates for his advantageous posi tion. Having finished luncheon,! determined to move the curtains one by one, long enough to stimulate, without satisfying, the curiosity f the spectators outside. As I lifted each cur tain, I found the pane pressed by a dozen noses; then rose a sudden shout, followed by an In tensely eaaer enumeration of whatever pecu liarity each had observed; so that, although the time J allowed was scarcely long enough for the wet collodion process, me combination or many observers, with retlnoe more highly excited than any film of collodion, realized a tolerably characteristic portrait. - , This pleasant vein of description is pre served throughout, but we like his Highland adventures best of all. They are so vividly sUseribed, and were evidently so thoroughly enjoyed, that we cannot but sympathize, and follow his steps with interest. Ilia description of how he travelled on a French river is also laasant: -I have a good "boat, but, after trying her on the Ternln. found that she was too long for such inU-loaS navigation, and also that the usual of rowing was not possible on a rapid PTrr " h.7. it wtui always necessary to will lnadvance.

You arpear to them as unex pectedly as if you were a porpoise-thr.y open Their moutbs in amazement you glide past them in a moment, ana are gone. Work of this kind, I warn the sympathetic reader, is, when you first attempt it, in a high degree alarming. It seems absolutely impossi ble that you should get out of such an endless succession of difficulties. The first snags, with water ruBhlng between them like a mill race, have something of horror in their aspect gaunt arms rising from the swift stream to catch yon and rond yon. With a little expe rience these alarms give place to a feeling of Serfect self-possession. You learn the art of lscovering in time where t he best passage Hen, and of so placing your coracle that it will be driven through It by the current. You become aware of certain laws or customs of rapid streams, by which you know beforehand how and where they have hollowed water enough to carry your light craft. You acquire such mastery over your paddle that, with a power ful stroke or two, you avert easily what seems certain destruction. "People who live near streams usually pro nounced not navigable do not know what they miss. To any such I say, get a coach or a little canoe, and try to navigate your stream. A little wad in 2 now and then does no harm. though in the winter and spring I do my voyage to Autun witnout onoe quitting my coracie. It might be possible in a sharp little canoe to ascend the stream also, but this seems very doubtful; my plan is to walk hdjme, and send the coracle back in a cart." We regret that we have not ' space for more extracts, as it has been many a day since we have been called upon to review a work which gave us such real pleasure as that received from the 'Painter's Camp." iWb have received from J.

With considerable ability the Bubject is treated, but the palm rests with the Doctor nevertheless. FROM OUR FOREIGN FILES. Narrow Escape of a Spiral Ascenslonist Au ascensiouist named Eurardo gave the people of Bristol, Ecgland, a sensation a few (lavs since, which was not down on the bills. It was at the Zoological Gardens: He did not make his ascent until rather late in the evening, and the consequence was that he had a very narrow escape or losing nis lire. With marvellous precision he travelled up the spiral platform on the elobe, and on reaching the top was greeted with loud applause. ' Owing to some misunderstanding, a quantity of brilliant fire, which ought not to have been used until he was near the bottom, was lighted up when he was standing on the top. The effect was, dazzling to tue signt, and ne was compelled to shield his ejes tor several min utes until the lights were extinguished, which was done by his own direction. Their removal only served to make the "darkness more visible," and as he commenced his peril ous downward journey, it was unmistakably evident that more than ordinary care and skill were required. lie had not proceeded many feet when a shriek from the assembled thou sands, and the eight of the globe falling through the air, proclaimed that Eurardo had missed uls looting. A momentary suspense gave way to tremendous cheering when it was tound that. by astonishing dexterity, he had contrived to save himself. He hurriedly ran down the plat lorn, waving his hand In acknowledgment of the prolonged cheers which greeted his safety, and wanted to make tue ascent again, but Mr. Jackson, the Secretary of the Gardens, very properly refused to auow another attempt to be made so late iu the evening. The event, as may be Imagined, created no little sensation. ! Capture of a Brigand q,ucan. The Roman correspondent of the Da ilu News gives the lollowing particulars ot the conduct of the wife of a brigand chief who has recently been captured by the Pontifical troops: xne ronuncai government is excessively proud of an achievement of its troops, who nave recently succeeded in securing a valuable prize no less a personage than a brigand queen stjled "Loisella," the partner of the redoubtable Andreozzi, who reigns, supreme among the Volscian htlH This 'Loisella,' Delore she took to the hills, was servlne maid to the wife ol that PaniceL Governor of a paese called San Loreizo, who was carried oif in March last by the brigands, and being tound unable to walk, was for three weeks borne about the mountains in a chaise-a-porteurs. During his period ot detention, at the instiga tion of Lolsella, who dictated to him the items. ramvei wan required to send to his wife a list oi her lewelrv. with a letter begging her to hand to the bearer the precious articles named as a portion o( his ran som, and au indispensable condition of his being set iree. n itn me exception or a pearl neck lace, which had been presented by the Bignora Paulcd to her daughter on her marriage, and which was inbtautly missed by the observant Loisella, the whole of the required jewels were promptly lorwarded. Seizing the glittering and precious things, Loisella proceeded to adorn herself with them, and thus arrayed, presented herself before her late master, demanding of mm aerisively for whom he took her. "xoa are Loisella,'1 replied Panicci, "my wile's maid." "No," answered Loisplla. pointing to the jewelry, "I am jour wife." llaviug been captured with a double-barrelled gun in her hands, Loisella will probably Lave sentence of death passed on her, but will certainly not be executed, even though she should be unsuccessful in decovlng Andreozzi, or others of her lovers, into the hands of the authorities. . , The Kins of Prussia and the Gambler, The Figaro relates the following characteristic anecdote ot the Prussian King: The King had forbidden the Prussian officers in garrif ou at ltastadt to gamble at the Baden tables, but more than one of them w often to be found In private dress among the group of pisjers, una ijikui. a iiuoMiuu onicer risked a sovereign on the rouge. He won, left the two t'teces, then four, then eight, and was about to draw his tixteen sovereigns when he perceived King William in front of him. What torture for a sub-lieutenant to see sixteen golden pieces before him and dare not touch them! The rouge continued to win, and the heap of gold having exceeded the maximum, the croupier cried out, Uow much on the Leap If" The onicer, pale and trembling, had not the courage to replv with one eye he looked at the King, and with the other at his gold. "How much n Hie henpf ftcsm shoutod the crou pier. At tbi moment the King of I'russia came un4 llic Imble, mil tunpiug the Lieutenant on the shoulder, said to hun, with that bonhomie characu ristlc of his Majrgty, "Come, taie up your moiwy and make yourself scares before vour superiors meet yon." It is hardly neces sary to say that the officer did not want to be told twice. Some time after the Kim: reviewed the garrison of Batadt, and perceiving the Lieutenant, made (lens to blm to approach. "Sir," said King William, "I caused you to lose some money the other day in interrupting your ?:ame. The rouge won three times after you elt. You may draw the difference from my private exchequer, but beware that you do not $ommcpce again." r . ll'D A Peep V1.1? f t'dy, me ChnrlCB Lciiormant tthe adopted daugh ter bf H. Srcamirr has civen us this ellmnte Into M. Guizot's study : "Let ns enter M. Guir.ot'8 study about 4 o'clock, when he begins the lectures on historv he gives twice a week to his erandchlldren. The lesson lasts halt au hour. Seated in front of his desk, the grand father turns to the youthful audience grouped in front of him. Attention, respect, anu joyiui confidence are depicted on all those little faces. He recapitulates in a few words the sabjeot ot the preceding lecture, and the children almost always reply without hesitation to the ques tions addressed to them. Then this same orator, whose powerful voice . captivated the atten tion of an enthusiastic puonc in toe large amphitheatre of the Sorbonne, or quelled the interruptions of a stormy political assembly, suiting himself to the intelligence of his young auditors, traces clearly, rapidly, and in a sinning manner, me events and especially the spirit of the events oi our history; and ne mingles with this elegant nar ration extracts which he reads from the memoirs of the epoch nnder consideration. It la a charming lecture, and we have never been pre sent at it without wishing this history of France, told by such a grandfather to his grandchildren, should not be lost to the public." Is not that a charming picture which seems borrowed from "Plutarclrs Lives," when he tells of old Romans, who bad been crowned with all public honors, devoting liie's evening to training patriotic citi zens to the country's service r Use of Fart, We find the following in Blackwood: The Indian wears his sables as well as the delicate lady: and buffalo skins form the robes of the savage as well as the rugs of English carriages or Canadian sieigns. xne sou rich velvet Bkin or the sea-otter adorns the person of the native of the North Pacific as well as the cloak of the Chinese mandarin; and the delicate white ermine, with black-tipped tail,' is the choicest ornament of the Black foot warrior of the American prairies, as well as the symbol of royalty and dignity in this country. The wear ing of skins seems, indeed, to be a mark of each extreme of the human race the most primi tive and the most civilized. Nature has sup plied the animals of Northern climates with coats ot unequalled quality for keeping out the coid ana enduring wear; ana these admirable Tjronerlies. and the fact of the material hpinc ready made, no doubt induced our eavaere fore fathers and their contemporaries, in the first instance, to transfer such useful coverings from the bodies of the inferior creation to their own. Butithis is not the only cause of the almost universal love for furs. There is a handsome appearance about soft glossy fur of the finest kind which is very striking, and which has cansed it to be valued as an article of ornament alone. It may be questioned whether the ladies who roll along in their, carriages. wraDoed in sealskin aud sables, do not regard the beauty of their clothing quite as much as its property of warmtn; ana it is me combination ot usefulness with a handsome appearance which makes them prize It so highly. The mandarin, however, wears the fur of the sea otter nearlv the whole supply of which he monopolizes purely for the saae oi ornament, xne macitioot cniet prizes the tiny ermine skin as a earniture for his head, or a trimming for his fire bag or his medi cine belt. The same fur is esteemed by Christ ian princes as an emblem of dignity and regal power. It was borne alone on the coats-of-arms ot the ancient tarls of Brittany; and in Eng land, in the time of Edward II, none but mem bers ot the royal lamily were permitted to wear It. In this connection the following from the Cosmos concerning tTll rue UitTir will be found interesting. xms animal was not much known among the ancients. Aristotle and Pliny only mention it from hearsay, whence it may be concluded that it preferred the northern parts ot Europe, wnicu were sun mmiy peopled ana uncivilized. About the beginning of the seventeenth cen tury some might still be seen on the banks of the Danube, on those or the Khine, and even ot the Marne, as also in Switzerland. There is an old cookery book, entitled "Liber Benedic- tionum," by Eccard IV, Abbot ot St. Gall, In which the flesh ot the beaver is considered delicacy. Nay, the good monks of the convent, who were notorious for their strict adherence to tne rules ot a penitent lite, had tound out that the beaver was a fish, and might, therefore, be eaten on Fridavs a verv unlucky circumstance tor the poor animal, and wnicn must nuvc gieauy conmputeu to dimiuisu its numbers. The 'x.iber Benedictlonum" in forms us, by-the-way, that the peacock, swan. stork, and wild duck formed part occasionally of the bill of lare, as did also the bear: it was. nowever, admitted ou ail hands that the latter was not a fish; whether birds were or not, is not stated, to return to the beaver; its real naoiiat is Canada, whence it has spread all over countries aown 10 tne 43d parallel ot latitude; only in Europe and Asia it seems eraduallv to die out. There are still some in Norway, Lap land, and especially in Siberia, on the banks oi tne uoy. xne question arises whether the solitary beaver, which does not congregate with its kin and has a dull., dirt v. looking fur, is the same as the. . crees- rious breed, building dwelltnes on piles, and having a sleek and shining skin t Mr. Hoefer replies to the question in the aflirmatlve. In his pinion there is but one species of beaver, the Castor Americanust the Canadian beaver, when brought over to Europe, b2comes soli tary, in support or this opinion he relates the following nngular anecdote: "Frederick If. of Prussia, had caused a considerable number of beavers to be brought over from America for the purpose ot acclimatizing them in the environs of Berlin. But the poor creatures became melancholy, and insteud of congre gating and building their villagers is their cus tom In their own native haunts, they separated from each other; their fur, which at first was so glossy, became dull and rough, and, by bur rowing in the sand, they rubbed their skins bare so as to assume the appearance of mangy dogs. They did not multiply, and died away one by one." Sir Cusack Roncy, in a published letter, gives the following information concerning the !t ,M, London Post Office. In 1801, the tirst year of the present century, the local letters that is, the letters both posted and delivered within the metropolitan limits were estimated to be about 3,200,000. In 1803 iu.e2,bBUi.nt'rett9edt0 fi.000.ooo. and in 1813 to 8,400,000; but In the following ten years they had advanced to 10,500,000, that being the esti mated number in 1823. They were almost sta tionary during the next ten years, notwith standing the increase of population; indeed, they rather retrograded, their number In 1833 being estimated at only 10.200,000. lu 1835 they roselo about 11,200,000. in 1839, the year b lore the Introduction of the penny postage, they una 19 iWh Dull In Kin .!.. .

In I860 London was divided for postal purposes into ten districts, by which very much more rapid delivery was obtained for local let ters. Ihe consequence was that in 1858 the third complete year alter the alteration, local letters had nseu to 68,404,000, and in 1862 to 71,621.000. In 1865 there were about 90.000,000, of which upward of 16,000,000 were delivered in the dibtricts in which they were posted. At the present time the average daily delivery of letters in London is about 660,000, of which about half are local and half from the provinces and abroad. -The daily number of newspapers and book phClteU delivered is about (5,000. fall Cnfftrk averts that.

FINANCIAL. ' ;: The union pacific RAILROAD COMPANY. THEIR FIRST MORTGAGE BONDS AS AN INVESTMENT. The rapid progress of the Union Paclflo Railroad- raw building west from Omaha, Nebraska, and form- lug, with Its western connections, an unbroken line across ths continent, attracts attention to the value of the First Mortgage Bonds which the Company now offer the public The first question asked by prudent Investors is, "Are these bonds secure?" Next, "Are they a profitable investment?" To reply In brlel: First. The early completion of the whole great line to thePaclflc Is as certain as any future business event can be. The Government grant of over twenty mil lion acres of land and fifty million dollars in Its own bonds practically guarantees It, One-fourth of the work la already done, and the track continues to be laid at the rate ot two miles a day. Beoond. The Union Pacific Railroad bonds are Issued upon what promises to be one of the most profitable lines ot railroad In the country. For many years it unit be the only line connecting the Atlantic and Pa cific; and being without competition, It can maintain remunerative rates. Third, are miles of this road are finished, and fully equipped with depots, locomotives, cars, etc., and two trains are dally running each way. The materials for the remaining 141 miles to the eastern base of the Rocky Mountains are on band, and It is nnder eon- tract to be done In September, Fourth. The net earnings of the sections already finished are several times greater than the gold in terest npon the First Mortgage bonds upon such sec tions, and if not another mile of the road were built, the part already completed wonld not only pay inte rest and expenses, but be profitable to the Company. Fifth. The Union Pacific Railroad bonds can be is sued only as the road progresses, and therefore can never be in the market unless tuey represent a bona fide property. Sixth. Their amount is strictly limited by law to a sum equal to what is granted by the United States Government, and for which It takes a second lien as its security. This amount upon the first 617 miles west Irom Omaha is only ic,M0 per mile. Seventh. The fact that the United States Govern ment considers a second Ilea npon the road a good In vestment, and that some of the shrewdest railroad builders of the country have already paid In five mil lion dollars upon the stock (which is to them a third Hen), may well inspire confidence In a first Hen. Eighth. Although It Is not claimed that there can be any better securities than Governments, there are parties who consider a first mortgage upon such a property as this the very best security In the world. and who sell their Governments to reinvest In these bonds, thus securing a greater Interest. Ninth. As the Union Pacific Railroad bonds are oflored for the present at 90 cents on the dollar and accrued Interest, they are the cheapest security In the market, being Is per cent, less than United States stocks. Tenth. At the current rate of premiums on gold tney pay OVER NINE PER CENT. INTEREST.
