Barking up the Wrong Tree.


Major Bunkum tells pretty good
yarn of fellow he tried to bluff off
by an outrageous Munchausen. The
chap, however, had 'cut his eye teeth,
and was some pumpkins himself as
will be seen from the narrative:
There was chap that / tried to
run saw on a while ago in Texas,

was travelling from the Brazos to the
Trinity, and when got to the Alas
caseto crossing, found the San ia
cinto roaring. 1t was coming 'hark
from the tombs.' Free soil movements
was agoing on--trees tumbling in all
along the banks. | see there was no
kind o help for it, and so took my
feet out of the stirrups, threw my
saddle-bagS over my shoulders, and in
me and the mare went.
We were in an awful tight place
for a time, but finally landed safe.
I'd just got my eritter tied out and
fire started to dry myself, when |
seed chap come riding up the hill
on chunk of pony-and such a
looking chap, to be sure. His little
red eye was stuck in his head like a
pigs; bis whiskers was powerful, and
no wonder, for if there hadn't been
sile enuf' in his fat chops to have
raised the crop, there was a plenty
outside-a real top dressing, as they
call it in the North. A little red nose
was just rising out of 'em, like a bill
of sun in a fog, or a red bird in a buck.
leberry patch. He belonged to the
no-comb society, and was member
of the anti-razor Sociation; and if he q
swan the river with his head in the
water, stead of his feet, it would have
effected an amazing improvement ii
his personal appearance. There was
no mistake about it-he was one Of

'Hoopee, strangerll' sings out my

GUANO: ITS HISTORY.

as liniIURIcu HUH bsle 1SiduIio VI tiiC
Pacifc-mostly Of the Chincha group
off the coast of Peru, and under the
domision Of that government. Its
sale is made monopoly, and the
avails, to great extent, 60 to pay
the British holders Of Peruvian gov
ernment bonds, giving them, to all III
tents and purposes, lien upon the
profits Of a treasure intrinsically more
valuable than the gold mines Of Cali
fornia There are deposits of this IN
surpassed fertilizer in some places to
the depth Of sixty or seventy feet.
and over large extents of suffice
The guano fields are generally conce-
ded to be the excrements of aquatic
fowls, which live and nestle in great
numbers around the Islands. They
seem designed by nature to rescue, at
least in part, that untold amount Of
fertilized material which every river
and brooklet is rolling into the sea.
The wash of alluvial soils, the floating
refuse of the field and forest; and,
above all, the wasted materials OF
great cities, are constantly being car
ned by the tidal currents out to sea-
These, to certain extent at least, SO
to nourish, directly or indirectly, sub
marine animal and vegetable life, which
in turn goes to feed the birds whose
excrements at our day are brought
away by the ship-load from the Chin
cha Islands.
The bird is a beautifully arranged
chemical laboratory, fitted up to per-
form single operation, viz: to take
the fish as food, burn out the carbon
by means of its respiratory functions
and deposite the remainder in the
shlpe Of an Incompatible fertilizer
But, how many ages have these de-
posites Of seventy feet in thickness
been accommodating?
There are at the present day count
less numbers of the birds resting up.
on the Islands at night; but, according
to Baron Humboldt, the excrements
of the birds for the space of three
centuries would not form a stratum
over one-third Of an inch in thick
ness. By an easy mathematical cal
caEation, it will be seen that at this
rate Of deposition, it would take sever
thousand five hundred and sixty cen
taries, or seven hundred and fifty-si2
thousand years, to form the deepes
guano bedi Such calculation car
ries US back well on towards former
geological Feriod, and proves one, ant
perhaps both, OF two things-first. thai
in past ages, an infinitely greater
number Of these birds lowered ovel
the Islands; and secondly, that the
mltenal world existed at a period long
anterior to its fitness as the abode o.
man. The length Of man existence
is iufnitessimal, compared with such
cycle of years; and the facts record
ed on every leaf of the material uni.
verse, ought, if it does not, to teach
us humility. That little bird, whose
individual existence is as nothing
should, in its united action, produce
the means of bringing back to an ac-
tive fertility whole provinces of waste
and barren lands, is one of a thou
sand facts to show how apparently
insignificant agencies in the economy
of nature produce momentous results
