What They Cost, and all about Them.
The New York Mail furnishes sonic in
teresting facts in regard to the wild animals
used for exhibition. It says:
There arc at present in the - United States
about a dozen so-called menageries. Of
them but threb or four possess really good
collections of animals, and in no single one
arc certain of the Tarer beasts to be found
at All. One solitary specimen of the giraffe
is living in the country, and the only hippo
pdtamus brought alive to America died ten
years ago, and his stuffed skin now orna
ments a New York museum. It may he in

showmen were mtille rich by the exhibition

On investment in a " Hippo," that for years
there has been a standing offer fdr one of
these monsters, living and in good health,
a sum_ which any one of half a dozen re
sponsible men stands ready to pay on the
very day that Mr. H. is introduced. It is
asserted, however, that }with the exception
of this individual specimen, all other
im
portations of the more delicate animals have
proved disastrous failures, and the showmen
have lost heavily-. Several hippopotami, a
score of girliffes, and hundreds of the more

wilds to this country, but idle keen cold of
our inhospitable climate has ruthlessly
slaughtered them so speedily that it 'is as

return of his money thus invested.
An elephant costs from $3,000 to $B,OOO

was in a great measure due to the fact that

constant travel.

ties with a liberal hand, in accordance with
certain travelers' stories he has read, which
inform him that delicacies' of the metallic
sort are this bird's favorite food. The truth
is that the ostrieh, is a very foolish as well
as an exceedingly greedy bird, and really
will snap up and swallow down stones,. bits
of iron, or almost everything else that; LB

things than a human stomach can digest a
blacksmith's anvil or a twenty inch Cannon.
to if the stupid bird is not carefully watch
ed and saved from the hi»dness of his iron
bestowing friends, he will 'speedily die of a
surfeit of old iron, India rubber shoes, old
hoopAirts, rusty telegraph wire, and such
similar sweet morsels as suggest themselves
to the liberal rustic mind as being appropri

Meat,

The difficulty of procuring proper food
in the great quantitpealled for by the inor
dinate appetite of the gorilla has, it seems,
been the great obstacle to the transporta
tion of that estimable simian safely, from
Africa to Eniope. Du Chaillu, or one of
his agents, having secured an unusually
amiable specimen, whose itlimentiveness
was so much more fully developed than his
combativeness that lie thought more of eat
ing than of fighting other people or pound
ing himself to death, hewas put on ship
board with what wits considered a proper
supply of sugar cane, tender branches of
various succulent plants, certain roots and
fruits suited to his most fastidious taste, and
was started for Liverpool. Being deprived
1 1
of congenial so iety, however, and having
nothing to do o her - than attend to his gas
tronomic desir s, Mr. Gorilla soon com
menced such a i l remendous onslaught on the
food provided r him, that before he was
literally "half ens over" his entire stock
~
of provisions was consumed. Beans, pota
toes, hard-tack and salt-horse were tried by
the sailors, while the entire cabin commis
sariat was ransacked for acceptable grub.—
Eyen plum duff failed to please his dainty
stomach, and lie soon succumbed, and died
nineteen days out of port.
No such promising specimen has since
been captured, and a living gorilla is a gen
tleman as yet uninterviewed by any white
man save Du Chaffin, Gordon Cumming:,
and other mighty hunters of similar Afri
can aspirations and experiences.
Of course the lions, tigers, leopards, 'and
all that are. known as the " cat animals,"
must be fed with raw meat.. A first-class
menagerie xill consume from 800 to 500
pounds of beef per day for this class of an
imals. Elephants eat from 500 to' 700 lbs.
of hay each per day. It being a universal
pastime with sight fseeing people to feed the
elephants, they are usually kept busy dU
ring exhibition hours munching apples, gin
gerbread, and
,othci free gifts of the many
headed public.
Camels are fed on hay, oats and corn, of
which the allowance for one camel is about
as much grain as for a horse. Giraffes re•
ceive hay, oats and corn, and are also allow
ed, when feasible ; to help themselves to the
tender twigs of certain trees. Bears are
given bread and vegetables, very seldom or
never receiving meat. The sea lions will
each devour one hundred pounds of fish
per day. The seals and the otters are also
fed with fish, which should be from the salt
sea, inasmuch as even a few days' diet on
f telt water fish will cause these dainty ani
mins to grow thin and pine away.
th the winter the entire menagerie is al
wt s in very convenient and com
fot fable quarters, generally near some city
tit lit•re the attendants Cali procure proper
I'm :CO, and in every other way look after the
heifith and comfort of their valuable char
ges). The entire amount of capital invested
in menagerie property iu the - United States,
including not only the animals but all the
apparatus and malefic!l requisite for their
transportation anti exhibition, may be fairly
estimated at over ii,-.:,000,000.

field to Euston. This was a stout, black
hiskei ed man who sat immediately in front
,f me. nod who indulged,_ from time to
tone, in t lie most strange and unaccountable
matteuverg - Every now and then he would
get up and hurry away to the narrow pass

ing lioun ears,
,and when Il thought him
,:elf scuttle from observatior would fall to
laughing in the most violet t manner, and
continue the healthful exercise until he was
as led in the face as a lobster. As we near
ed Boston these demonstrations increased
in iolence, save that the stranger no longer
ran away to laugh, hut kept his seat and
chuckled to himself with his chin deep
don nin his shirt collar. But the changes
that • those portmanteaus underwent! Ile
moved them here, there, everywhere; he
pm them behind hint, in front of bhp, on
each side of hint. Ile was evidently get
ting ready to leave, hot as we were yet 25
-milts float Boston, the idea of such early
preparations was ridiculous. If we had en
tered the city then, the mystery would have
eniaMed unsolved, but the stranger at last
became so much excited that he could keep
his scat no longer. Some one must help

Suddenly turning, as if I had asked a

the passage way again, and getting in i's
old corner, where he thought himself out t f
sight; went through the strangest pailo
- laughing, piutinghis montlf Into 1 re
drollest shapes, and then swinging , ,hims *if
backward and forward.in.theJimited spa
as if he were •welking down Broadway
- full rigged metropnlitith swell.
And So on till we rolled into the' . depot,
and I placed myself on the other car, oppri r
site the stranger, who, with a portmantean
in his hand, had descended and was stand
lug on the lower step, ready to jump on th
platform: I looked front his•face to the fa
ces of the people before us, but saw nn sig
of recognition. Suddenly lie cried, .` thee•
they are,' and- laughed outright, hut in t
hysterical sort 'of way, w he looked over
the crowd. L followed his eyes, and sa
some distance back, as if crowded out ant
shouldered away by the well-dressed and el
bowing throng, a little woman in a fader
dress and a well-worn hat, with a face al
most painful in its intense but hopeful ex
pression, glancing rapidly Prom window t
window as the coaches glided in.
She had not yet seen the. stranger but a
moment after she caught his eye, and in an
other instant he had jumped to the , pintrOf/11
with his two portmanteaus; and making a
hole in the crowd, pushing one here, ano
ther there, and.runuing one of his bundles
plump into the well-developed stomach of a
venerable looking old gentleman in specta
cles, he rushed toward the place where she
was standing.
I think I never saw a face assume so ma
ny different expressions in so short ii time
as did that of the little wonnte while her
husband was on his way to her. She did
not look pretty. On the contrary, she look- i
ad very 'plain; but sonic MO' I Mt a big
lump rise in my throat as 1 watched her.—
She was trying to laugh; hut, Clod bless her,
how completely she failed in the attempt!,
Her mouth got into the position; but it, nev
er moved after that, save to draw down at,
the corners and quiver, while she blinked
her eyes so fast that I suspect she only
caught an occasional glimpse of the broad'
shouldered fellow who elbowed his way so
rapidly toward her. And then, as he drew
close and dropped those everlasting 'port
manteaus, she just turned quickly and com
pletely around with her back toward hint,
and covered her face with her hands. And
thus she was when
-the strong man gathered
her up in his arms as if she had been a ba
by, and held her sobbing to his breast.
There were enough gaping at them, Hea
ven knows, and I turned my eyes away a
moment, and then I saw two boys in thread
bare roundabouts standing near, wiping
their red eyes and noses on their sleeves,
and bursting out anew at every fresh dem
onstration on the part of their mother.—
When I looked at the stranger again he had
his hat drawn down over his eves; but his
wife was looking up at him, and it seemed
as if the pent-up tears of all those weary
months of waiting were streaming through
her eyelids.
"Navvy" in most minds
with a very r caul- man; and
justly so. Nc .ardy men could
possibly ex(cu the navvies.—
It is but little known, however, that a very
severe ordeal has to be undergone by the
novice, failing in Which MS phone and his
spurs were cut ofF, figuratively speaking, and
he ,could not hope to be admitted into the
honorable company of excavators. The
men looked with jealousy and dislike upon
each new Comer, especially if itc c new, as
soon grew to be the case, from htly of the
southern or western counties: and they took
pleasure in making his entrance et") new
life as disagreeable as Possible. The novice
was bound to wheel a barrow all day long
from the spot where the men Were tilling to
another twenty-two yards oft: Twenty-two
yards, from some accidental rinse no doubt
came to be fixed all over England us the dis
tance to which the navvies tVhen di 'ring r.

good and all, from that district at any rate,
as a navvy. Those who su , ceeded tlid so
by wonderful strength and pluck. There is
no word but " pluck" which conveys ex
actly
what I mean. A man has been seen
to wheel his load, :a load piled up by con
ping and spiteful hands, with the blood ooz
ing all clay long from between his fingers.—
All that could be clone to daunt and deter
the novice was done; yet no one mole ad
mired the triumphant stranger than the very
men who had sought to baulk - hint. There
was, moreover, a sort of emu anty for fair
play; the man who tilled the harrow for the
novice had to wheel it for a few yards hint
self. The road of plank from the excava li
-
tion to the spoil-heap forked as it approach
ed the diggings; the empty barrow was ta
ken along one, the full barrow was taken
along the other, but the digger-always had,
and has now, to wheel it to the junction.—
if he could not wheel it, neither need 'the
novice, and the fellow was fined pretty hea
\lily. Those among the novices N\ hose piK-11-
ctg were well ,enough supplied to enable
them to stand plenty of beer during the first
day or two of their probation, got Oil much
better, in the way of lightly tilled barrows,
than did their poorer contratles.—('‘isulns

A s the season of thunder :A.l-flab is rapid
ly approaching its advance guard having
made its appea lime a few days ago, sonic:
remarks upon tote of the methods through
which people att mpt to shield themselves
from the danger of lightning may, not be
unwelcome to bur readers. Pear is at great
magnifier of danger, and people seldom
think there is More danger, us an English
writer says, on the best. regulated railroad
than durinr , b the heaviest thunder storm.—
Most of the dangers from lightning can be
avoided by-paying attention to well - known
rules of safety. Frightened people natural
ly draw together in some room or place,
seeking safety in each other's society, un
oonscibus that ; they are attracting (hanger
instead of preventing it, as ascending cur
rents of vapor caused by their perspiration
are excellent conductors of electricity.—
People seem to think that they are safer, in
a crowd and in the neighborhood of some
tall building, and some of the most horrible
accidents-on record have been caused by
this. mistaken belief. Others believe that
lying upon several mattresses will prevent
their being injured, unconscious of the fact
that persons have been killed while endea
voring to shield themselves in this manner.
It will be seen that these accidents have
mostly occurred to persons who were 'igno
rant that the vapor of their persons, or the
mattresses upon which they lay, were con
ductors. The safest spot in a thunder storm
is the center of the room if you -are in the
house, or a place at some distance I roan Mil
houses or trees if out of door* But the
laws of electricity, if that capricious power
has laws, are yet unknown; sea the ! he-t
course is to trust in God and la-cp your
lightning rods in order.—Er.

Foreign Relations had been called by the
President to meet at the fitatc, Department
for consultation on the subject of the Amer

and that the Dethocratic members had not
been notified. The effort was treated with
contempt :by Republicans, who simply de
nied the fact, and the matter was dropped
as suddenly as it. could have been conceived.
Who does not knowthat the President not
