The Cause of Prairies In a recent number of Life Illustrated, over the signature of "Bluff," in notes anti queries, occurs the following question.— What is the cause of prairies without tim her, or the best theory on the subject?" Having resided for a number of years in the prairie country of the West, the same inqui ries have often arisen in my mind, and I would here in answer, state the conclu sion on which I have arrived ou the subject. It is an opinion held by many, that the prairie region of the West was once covered by the waters of a'great inland sea or lake, and that in process of time, by geographical causes, it was elevated to its present level. The theory is also supported by the fact, that in many places there have been found at various depths beneath the surface, re mains of different kinds, but especially leaves of trees, bark, cinders, etc. There appears to be two principal causes for the existence of prairies in their present state. These are the Close sod of the prairie grass, - which tends to prevent the - non and Wt . ': growth of the seed of trees ; and the fires, which in I - inhabited parts, so fre quently sweep over the country and destroy the young trees which have succeeded in establishing themselves in the soil. These views are sustained by various reas ons. The soil of the woodlands that skirt the prairies is mostly of a different quality from the prairie soil, and thus more favora ble to the growth of trees than of grass. Lying along the bluffs which follow the course of streams, it is more broken and hilly. It is of a poorer quality, being more exposed to the washings of the rains. Again, where the country is .settled, and the fires excluded, we frequently observe a growth choked briers and hazel. These are soon dioked out by the hardy plum and crab-apple, which later in time give place to the still more flourishing Brest trees. Sometimes the bri er or hazel composes the strip next the open prairie ; interior of this, and nearer the tim ber, the plum, black haw and crab-apple are found; then come the young forest trees, and finally the full grown timber. We have seen quite extensive tracts undergoing this process of transformation. The facts here :7iven are sufficient to convince our own mind, although we do not claim that the opinions expressed would stand the test of a more scientilic investigation. Elephantine Wrestlers in aapan "'The attention of all was suddenly rivet ed upon a body of monstrous fellows, who tramped down the beach like so many huge elephants. They were professional wrest:: lers, and formed part of the retinue of the princes, who kept them for their private amusement and for public entertainment.— They were twenty-five in number, and were men enormously tall in stature, and immense in weight of flesh. * * * They were all so immense in flesh that they appeared to have lost their distinctive features, and seem ed to be (irily tv. - enty-five masses of fat. Their eyes were barely visible through a long per spective socket, the prominence of their no ses was lost in the puffness of the bloated cheeks, and their heads were almost set di rectly on their bodies, with merely folds of flesh where their neck and chin arc usually found. Their great size, however, was more owing to the development of music than to the deposition of fat ; for, although they were evidently -well fed, they were not less well exercised and capable of great feats of strength. As a preliminary exhibition of the power of these men, the princes set them to removing the sacks of rice to a more conve nient place on the shore for shipping. Each of the sacks weighed not less than one hun dred and twenty-five pounds, and. there were only a couple of the wrestlers who did not carry each two sacks at a time. They bore the sacks on the right shoulder, lifting the first from the ground and. adjusting it with out help, but obtaining aid for raising the second. One man carried a sack suspended by his teeth, and another taking one in his arms, turned repeated somersaults as he held it, and apparently with as much ease as if his tons of flesh had been so much gossamer, and his load. a feather."—Dr. Hawk's 2Varratice, of Japan Exped. RICHT AND LLrT.—The ) _nee Press, a rank Ab lition paper, with Fre mont at ifs mast head, discourses in this style of his candidate.

MS FIELD OF GLORY IS ON THE PRAIRIES AND IN TUE MOUNTAINS OF THE WEST, and NOT IN THE SENATE CHAM BER OR EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT OF THE NATION." And again growing eloquent and romantic over the hero of the "ride of the one hun dred," he comes clown on his Black Repub lican Presidential representatives in the fol lowing meat-axe style: "But the adventures of the pith : finder will arouse no enthusiasm amo7zry thepeople.
