For in stance when oue of them wishes to cross a river where the alligators are he goes up the stream a good way up aud barks with all his might ; the alligators go there and wait lor him getting in to ewiui acroes. The dog knows what he is about when he sees, from the number of snoots above watr, that his enemies have all gathered to the feast, runs down the bank as fast as he can, and swims across before the alligators are aware of the trick that has been jdayed upon them. 1 Gold in the Country. The total product of gold and silver in tke United States for the year 1870, as estimated by Mr. II. W. Raymond, United, States Commissioner of Mining Statistics, reaches $60,000,000, California contribut ing $25,000,000, and -Nevada 516,000, 000, to this amount. In addition to the bnlliou exported and that coined, a large smount of the precious metals is used in manufactures here. Gold to the value of from 30,000,000, to S13.000.000, is used annuall by jewelers and others, a part of which is coin, however, while silver-smiths and silver platers melt up large qnantities of hue silver bar .Mr. Raymonds estimates of the gold and ei'vc produc tion are higher thau those which have been generally accepted, but he has evidently taken great pains to arrive at accurate coocIumous, and h3 gives with clearness and at length the method by which he has reached the fi ure3 which he assumes to be correct. Here is an item for Doctors who may be called to treat usually unmanageable disease, diphtheria. At Lewistown, Me., a factory girl suffering from the complaint was attacked by a severe Dt of strangling and coughing, when the nurse veuturing to put her fingers down the patient's throat, seized the end of something which appeared loose there, and pulled out the false membrane. This presence of mind saved the sufferer. Dr. Hill now has the membrane in his possession. It is three inches in length, completely preserved, Mtid retains the shape of the air passage from which it was withdrawn. The Glm is a thick, white, leathery substance. It h is been before thought that diphthera and its kindred diseases might be suc cessfully treated by mechanical operations, and croup has been socjeiimes conquered by the surgeon. Diphthria is becoming so common and is so difficult of cure, that the above facts are given fjr what they lu ay be worth. A New Thing in Philosophy White Man Turnirg Black. The San Francisco Examiner says a gentleman of that city, almost twenty five rears of aje. ruddy complexion and curlv red h-jir, who had an intractable and pain ful ulcer mi the left arm, resisting all pre vious modes of treatment, yielded to the req'ict of tryiu:; the efTect of transplant ing a piece of skin to the uleer from an other person. The ulcer was prepared in the usual manner by his physician, and a bit of skin about an inch square w:t t;iken from the arm of a hue healthy rero man and immediately spread over the 'ily ulcer, and then carefully dressed and t'ltidaged. j he tkin transplantation h id the desired efTect. Healthy granula li jn sprang up, and the unsightly ulcer fc:on healed. A few months afterwards be went to his physician and told him tint ever since the sore healeJ the black skin commenced to spread, and it was in creasing. About one-third of his arm wn completely neuroed. The doctor him self is alarmed. The high probability is that the whole skin of this white man will become negro. This i-s a new thing uu der the sun. It would be rather difficult to explain the physiological process which t:ikes place to bring about such a skin change as this. The problem is, how can the coloring matter of the skin be so radi caily changed ? And how is this pi meut change propagated ? It is certain that the law of capillary attraction plays no lusigniuearit part m the spreading pro rpes. Grafting pears on au apple tree bis communicated to the apples a pear taste. Treed by Ecars. The Detriot Free Press, of the 4th inst ., gives the following account of how the hunter became the hunted : A man named Chas. Tyrell was hunt ing on the bt. ( lair river when two bears appeared. Somewhat excited, lie levelled his rifle and fired, and the next moment both the bears were coming down upou him at full speed. The hunter saw that they meant business, each uttering fierce growls, and he dropped his gun, caught hold of the limb of a small oak tree, and swung his legs up just in time to save bis boots. As he expected, one oi them was not long in attempting lose cure a closer acquaintance. The auiiual got up about seven feet, and then limbs refused to let him by. He pawed, bit. and growled at a great rate, and, io'aiak mg a big ettort to push away the limbs, fell to the ground. Tyrell commenced shouting, which excited the bears, and wee of thea was quickly up to the limbs again, wnen the hunter struck a match ami dropped it down on bruin s head, fiiehteuinir him so that he went l.7r. the tree at a lively rate. The hunter had about a dozen matches with him, and every time the bears started to climb h wouij iis-ht oue and let it fall, the trick Bevcr failing to stop their ascent. After a umtsoom seemed to go away, and the hun ter carefully commenced to descend. lie was just about to touch the ground when Iclh the bears came charging; at hiui out ui the darkness, aud he had to go up again, one of his boots being raked by !aws before he was above the limbs.' The animals made no further effort, to climb the tree, but tore around fur a full hour at its- base. Tyrell dared not descend for fei- that they had laid a snare for hici and passed the entire night astride of a limb. la tbe morning he foanj the bear ie fiVed at dead at tle foot of the tree but the other had disappeared, and the twite r sot safely off with the spoil.
