An eccentric character named l!rit Bailey came from Tennessee to Texan la 1830, nova tbe Dallas AWs. While en ronle in company -with several others he requested each man to tell what ho wan coming to Texas for. When all wero through it come to his tarn, and he said : "I am Being to Texon to establish a character. I have not got any at home, and I am going to to try to establish one in Texan." He nettled at Bailey's prairie, and soon after trouble commenced with the Mexican, and he participated in tho battle of Vclasca. He carried home with him a cannon ball as relio of this fight. When he came to die he requested to he buried standing up six feet under the earth, which would require a grave of more than twelve feet in depth, as he was 6 feet 2 inches in height. Ho also requested that there should be buried with him his rifle, 100 rounds of ammu nition, his butcher-knife, two pings of tobacco, one bottle of whiskey, his dog and the cannon ball from Velasca. Ail this was done with the exception of the dog. lie died at home in 1833 on Bailey's prairie, Brazolia County, and was buried on Oyster Creek. He was liked and ro pected by all who knew him. Kplcurean KlaplianU. An elephant's digestive functions are very rapid, and the animal, therefore, requires daily a large amount of fodder -six hundred pounds at lean. In its wild state the animal foods heartily, but wastefully. It is careful in selecting the few forest trees which it likes for their bark or foliago. But it will tear down branches and leave half of them untouched. It will strip off the bark from other trees and throw away a large portion. As it is a nocturnal animal, it se lects its trees by tho sense of touch and smell. Its sense of smell is so deli cuto that a wiM elephant can wind an enemy at a distance of one thousand yards, and the nerves of its trunk aro so sensitive that tho smallest substance can bo discovered and picked up by ita tiny proboscis. An eh-pluiut's palate is very dilicnto, and the auiuml is whimsical in selecting or rejecting morsels of food. Sir Sam uol W. Buker tells an anecdote illustra tive of the iiiaiB of u tame elephaut bo longing to tho police of Dhubri : , This elephant was fed with rice and plantains. The stems of the plantains were split and out into transverse sec tions two feet in length. Three-quarters of a pound of rice was placed within ouch tube of plautuin stum. Ono day, whilo the elephant was being fed, a lady offered the animal a small sweet biscuit. It was taken in the trunk and nlmout immediately thrown on the ground. The mahout, or driver, thinking thut the elephant had behaved rudely, picked up the biscuit and inserted it in a parcel of rice within a plantain stem. This was plncod in the elephant's mouth, and at the first crunch it showed its disgust by spitting out the whole mess. The small biscuit had disgusted the ani mal, and for several minutes it tried by its inserted trunk to rake out every atom from its tongue and throat. Tea-Cltvut Lead'. One of tho industries in connection with the tea trade is the collection of the lead with which tea-chests are lined. China has been noted for muny centuries for purity of its lead, and this tea-chest lead, as it is colled, is regarded as the finest in existence. There are muny uses for it ; it is found very valuable in making the best kind of solder. No ma chinery is employed in the production of this sheet lead ; every sheet is made by hand in tho most primitive fashion. A large brick is provided, tho size of the sheet of lead to be made, and is covered with two or three sheets of pa per. On these the molten lead is poured, and another brick is placed on the top, which flattens the lead out to the required size and thickness. The hoots are soldered together to the size of the interior of the tea-chest ; the tea is packed in, and the top sheet is fas tened in place. Tho workmen are very expert, and they turn out an immense Dumber of sheets in the course of a day, and, where labor is so cheap, at a price much less than if the articles were pro duced by machinery. Children Running Wild. 'It's a mistake," says a physician, "to let city children do too much of the 'running wild' business in their summer outings. People have the idea that 'in the country' one may do anything or eat anything with impunity. Laws for healthful living operate as much under the pines and by the sea as within the city limits, but not many realize it Mothers often complain to me that they bring their children back in the autumn thinner than when they we.nt away They may do that and still have them stronger, but many times children are allowed to run too incessantly. It takes a strong child to thrive on continuous exercise, and city children are not used to tramping up hill and down and over rongh roads and fields. Make them stretch out under the trees or on the river bank an hour every day, and more if you can, and they'll gain by it." Capacity of Barrel. In the United States the barrel is a Tory uncertain quantity. A barrel of wine, boor or cidor contains thirty-ono and a half gallons; the Cincinnati lamp oil barrel has forty-three gallons; tlio Kentucky whiskey barrel from forty to forty live gallons. In several States of the east a barrel, as a measure of arti cles other than liquids, is a legal lixed quantity. In a half dozen of the East ern States a barrel of grain is five bush els; of rice, is two hundred and twenty pounds; of flour, one hundred and ninety-six pounds; and of lime, three hundred and twisty pound.

Oraco is the beauty of form under the influence of freedom. Schiller. Hearken to the warning of conscience, if rou would not feel its wounds. We confess small fanlts in order to insinuate that we have no great ones. Pride is increased by ignorance J those assume the most who know the least. Leisure is a very pleasant garment to look at, but it is a Tcry bad one to wear. Cultirate presence of mind, for it of ten forms the round of security in th 1 ladder of life.

Repentence is not so much remow for what we have done, as the fear 0 consequences. Man's voice is given to him, like his other talents, to be used, and not to be abused. Cooper. There is no rule more invariable than that we are paid for our suspicion by finding what we suspect. Iluman reason has so little confidence in itself that it always looks for a pre cedent to justify its decrees. Politics is a smooth file which cuts gradually and attains its end by a slow progression. Montesquieu. Equity judges with lonity, laws , with xtremity. In all moral cases the rea son of the law is the law. Scott. Boing our own master sometimes meaus that we ars at liberty to be tho slave of our own foilies, caprices aud passions. We sometimes meet an original gen tletnau, who, if manners had not ex isted, would have invented them. Em erson. It is impossible to overvalue tho power which the sonl has of loving truth and doing all things for the sako of truth. Militarism is tho most conspicuous tyrant of the ago in which we live, and is the road that leads to war. W. E. (jlad.itoue. Absenco diminishes weak passions and, augments groat ones ; as the wiuJ extinguishes tapers, but increases a con flagration. Leisure will always be found by per sons who know how to employ their time ; those who want time are the peo ple who do nothing. Conscience will make us betray an.-I fight against ourselves, and for want of other witnesses will ' give evidence against its owner. ' Those who seek happiness in ostenta tion and dissipation are like those who prefer the light of a cundle to the splen dor of the sun. Some are endowed with good tem per in a much greater degree than oth ers. The gift can, however, be in creased by the effort to cultivate it. Whatever upholds a man's self-respect inclines him to self-improvement, and to appreciate fully his good points goes a long way in helping him to cure his faults. Hath any wronged thee ? Be bravely revenged ; slight it, and the work is be gun ; forgive it, and it is finished. He is below himself that is not above in jury. Quarles. More than talent, more than beauty, more than1 wealth, sometimes more than wisdom, good manners are the best let ters of introduction and the firmest ce ment of friendship. Private credit is wealth, publio honor is security ; the fuatl-er that adorns tho royal bird supports its flight ; strip him of his plumsge and you fix him to the earth. Letters of Junius. When one has been tormented and fa tigued by his sensitiveness, he learns that he must live from day to day, for get all that is possible, and efface bis life from memory as it passes. Yesterday is yours no longer, to morrow may never be yours ; but to day is yours, the living present is yours, and in tho living present you may stretch forward to the things that are before. Learn to be pleased with everything ; with wealth, so far as it makes us bene ficial to others ; with poverty, for not having much to care for ; and with ob scurity, for being nnenvied. Plutarch'.
