I'kince Au'Kkd'8 Description ok his
Ei-epahst IIckt. The following account
of an elephant hunt at the Cape is taken
from a letter which the Duke of Edin
burgh wrote to the Prince of Wales :
'As soon as the elephant saw us, he
charged us. There was so much excite
ment prevailing, that I thought I had
better wait as long as possible. The sight
of this enormous beast towering above
us, and coining on at this tremendous
pace, which one can scarcely understand
bo unwieldy an animal in appearance
coiner, was magnificent his ears, which
are three times as large as those of the
Ceylon elephant, spread out square on
each side. I could not help being rc
minded by it of a ship with studding'
sails set on both sides. When he had
reached about twenty-five yards from us,
I tired at his head. Tiie ball struck, and
ho instantly seemed to stop himself as
much as he could, and 1 gave mm the
Bbell just over tho left eye, at which he
swerved to the left and shook. Two or
three others fired ; and by this time he
was nearly broadside on, when Sir Wal
ter Currie's engine went off, with the
bullet through his neck" (tho Duke
means the elephant, not Sir Walter) " and
and he rolled over, as I may say, at our
feet for seven yards was ihe outside he
was from us as lie lay and we cheered
lustily, lie however continued strug
gling for some time, and 1 put four more
bullets in his heart, at about three yards."
A Tocgh Yarn. There is a place in
Maine so rocky that when the natives
plant corn they look for crevices in the
rocks, and shoot the grains in with a
musket. They can't raise ducks there
no how, for the Btones are so thick that
the ducks can't get their bills between to
pick out the grasshoppers, and the only
way the sheep can get at the sprigs of
grass is by grinding their noses on the
grindstone.
But this ain't a circumstances to a
place in Maryland. There the land is so
poor that it takes two killdeers to cry
' Kildecr,' and on a clear day you can see
the grasshoppers climb up a mullet) stalk,
and look with tears over a fifty acre field,
and the bumblebees have to go down on
their knees to get at the grass, all the
ninsquitoes died of starvation, and the
turkey buzzards were obliged to emigrate
But there is a county in Virginia
which can beat that There the land , is
so sterile that wheu tho wind is north
west they have to tie the children to keep
them from being blown away, and takes
six frogs tc raise one croak, and when
the dogs bark they have to lean against
the fence the homes are so thin that it
takes twelve of them to make a shadow,
aud when they kill a beef they have to
bold him up to knock him down.
Hydrophobia. This terrible disease
prevails to an alarming extent throughout
our country, and in case any persons have
tbe misfortune to be bitten by any of these
rabid animals, we reproduce the following
remedy. Never having bad occasion to
try it, we cannot speak of iu efficiency, but
give it for what it is worth : " An aged
German forest. keeper, who is on the verge
of death, has published a secret cure for
hydrophobia, which he sayi ho bas used
with success for fifty years, saving many
men and animals from a horrible death.
The wound must be bathed as soon a pos
sible with warm vinegar and water, and
when this is dried, a few drops of muriatic
acid poured into the wound will destroy the
tahra and relieve the patient from daoger.
This cure appears in the Leipsio Journal,
and we give Has we find it," -Grcenebtrrg

a hand saw, a chiel and ' a gcuge in the
operation. It is said by gentlemen of culti
vated tastes who have seen it, to be, consid

work of the chisel. It was presented to the
Territory of Iduho, through the Legislature,

made of wood, with broad brims aud thick
tires, the flange being bolted on the side
It was called Old Ironsides, ohe was hrst
put in motion on the Germantown and
Norristown Railroad She ran one 'mile
an hour, aod was considered the wonder of
the day. It wa3 ascertancd that the
wheels were too light to draw the tender,
and to overcome this difficulty the tender
was placed in front of ihe engine. This
kept the wheels on the track. The maker
and his partner pushed the engine ahead
nutil it obtained some speed, and then
jumped on the engine. The boiler being
too small for the engine, jteam was only
generated fast enough to keep it in motion
a short time so thev were compelled to
alternately push and ride during the whole
trial trip. It was regarded as a success
The heels were afterwards replaced with
iron wheels. The old eugine is still in

pounds carbonate of potash uud ammonia
while the solid excrements obtained from
ono cow are estimated to manure three times
the amount. Urine is more efficient on light
soils thuu on clay lauds uud strong loams
ou the latter much of its carbonate of am
monia is evolved before it can penetrate into
them.

Good Hams. After hami have been

Tim Provisional Government of Spain has

Men whose mission was to be tho Apostles

From a big question of "bribery," it bus

to implicate a few newspaper correspondents
