CLASSICAL AND PoLITIcAL.-The editor of
the Columbus (Ohio) Statesman, in order to
avoid the ''noise and confusion attendant
upon the results of the late election, paid
visit to the State Fair, which he thus good
humoredly describes We saw the AYRSHIRE
bull, from Clinton county, that is well entitled
TO the Lathblerm Dos, with double s. The
kinks in the hair OF his neck, if that be any
sign of good blot d; were as silken as the ring
lets of seminary girl; and his eye-well, we
left when he looked at US. Since the election
we can stand almost anything, but the ring in
the animals nose look insecure, and we did
not know but that he might have unsubdued
prejudices against Democratic editors"

is there an American staying at your
house?" he asked the landlord of the hotel
- l am bound to cross the water, and would

The landlord hesitated moment and then
replied:
. There is gentleman up stairs either from
America or Britain, but whether en- American
or Englishman. l cannot tell"
He pointed the way, ant Talleyrand-who,
in his life, was bishop, prince and prime min
ister-ascened the stairs. A miserable sup
plant, he stood before the strangers door,
knocked and entered.
In the far corner of the dimly lighted room,
sat man of some fifty years, his arms folded
and his head bowed on his breast From a
window directly opposite food OF light
poured upon his forehead. His eyes looked
from beneath thadowncsst brows, and gazed
upon Talleyrand's face with peculiar and
searching expression. His face was striking in
iron will. His form vigorous, even with the
SHOWS of fifty, was clad in dark, but rich
and distinguished costume.
Talleyrand advanced-stated that he was a
fugitive-and under the impression that the
gentleman before him was an American. soli-
cited his kind and feeling Offices
He epoured out his hist Dry in eloquent French
and broken English

The strange gentleman rose. With look
that Talleyrand never forgot, he retreated to-
wards tho door of the next chamber, his eyes
looking still from beneath his darkened brow.
He spoke as he retreated backward; his voice
was full Of meaning:
|" am the only man born in the New World
who can raise his hand to God and say, have
not friend-Het one in all America" ,.
Talleyrand never forgot tho overwhelming
sadness of the look which accompanied these
few words.
"Who are you?" he cried, as the strange
man retreated toward the next room what

"My name" he replied, with smile that

much resemblance :, the wolf They have
long, pointed, projecting noses, shaip and up-

Their barking is like the bowling of a wolf.
They pass their whole life in the open air; in
summer they dig holes in the ground for cool
ness, or lie in the water to avoid the musqui-
toes; in winter they protect themselves by
burrowlng in the snow, and lie curled up with
their noses covered by their bushy tails. The
