RESEARCHES IN NATURAL HIsToRY.-Mr
Webster classifed-The Washington Cores
pondent of the N. Y. Tribune, having been stu
dying the natural history of the U. S. Senat,
during the late session, thus neatly gives the re
suit of his curious researches through that paper
The following is his classification of Mr.. Web
ster. the correctness of which but few will dis
pute. The conclusion is particularly pointed
and is intended as singing hit at his change o
position on the Slavery question:
"BLACK DAN, alias the Godlike, as he hac
been cognomened by his especial admirers, is ;
sort of intellectual hippotamus, or rather, ne
doubt should say, an elephant, though | triec
by the substitution of another powerful but un
wieldly beast; TO avoid the triteness of the com
parison 1t won't do. The elephant is the
legitimate type of the man, trite or not He
has immense power, bulk and weight, but nc
agility or experiences in the use Of his power
1t he gets his foot upon you, you are deat
man, but then are is no special necessity for vol
to get under his feet. He is good naturcd as
long as he is nell fed, and much prefers being
let alone to being provoked, and when once
provoked, his wrath is quite frightful to veal
nerves. He is an extremely useful man in car
ryng heavy burdens, and is fond of hunting II
droves. 1t would be ungenerous perhaps. tt
push the parallel further, and affirm that WEI
sTER, like the elephant, can be trained TO hun
has o,cn kind, and do faithful service 10 his CAP

things that are ungencrous are true.''

Fugitive S'aves IN Canada.-A humble,
of fugitive slaves arrived here, and at To-
ronto, on yesterday. 1t is estimated that
nearly 1000 have arrived in Canada since
the commencement Of the agitation, many
of whom have passed into the interior
where they intend abiding. There appears
to be more sympathy for them than former
| ly; and many seem actually in want Of
the necessaries of life.
The HUNGARIAN REFUGEEs.-The follow
ing letter from Gov. Ujhazy to Senator Seward
will be read with interest by all.
