ANNEXATION OF ENGLAND TO FRANcE.--The Lon
don Court Journal has the following queer story Of
course Grardn is the name transparently Yeiled:
emile G--n has had several interviews with the
Emperor OF late aud as a pamphlet, written by him
upon the subject of the facility with which descent
might be made In England, and the ease with which
that country might be annexed to the French crown
Is going the round of the political Salons it has been
supposed that these interviews had been sought by
G---n to expose his ideas on the same subject The
tenor of the pamphlet, which is kept strict secret
from the public, and is printed for private distrbu-
ton only, may be judged when, addressed to the
Emperor, 1t opens thus: Let your Majesty remember
that the evet OF your Imperial Maestys reign is yet
to come-no Austerlitz. no Leipsic, no Marengo has
marked its annals. With an unriyalled army, and q
navy which stands first in Europe your Majesty
might accomplish fr more brilliant feats than these.
Even the palid reign Of Charles X. has left Algeria
as legacy Of glory to the nation-even the short
lived republic has left the occupation OF Rome by
our glorious troops Let then, the conquest OF Eng
land be the one Immortal feat OF arms, which shall
render your Maestys reign even more glorious than
that of Napoleon l., whose fate II would 80 nohly
ayenge.' u

A BISON SToRY.--About three months previous to
my arrival at Fort Union, and in the height of the
buffalo breeding season. when their bulls are some
times very fierce, Joe was taking the Fort Union bull
with cart, into point the river above the Fort
in order to draw home a load of wood which had
been previously cut and piled ready for transporta-
ton the day before, when very large old bison bull
stood right in the cart track, paving up the earth
and roaring, ready to dispute the passage with him
On nearer approach, instead of flying at the sight
Of the man that accompanied the cart, the bison
made headlong charge. Joe had barely time to re-

mortal combat, met midway with shock tina. made
the earth trembe. Our previously docie and gentle
animal suddenly became transformed into a furious
beast springing from side to side whirling round as
the buffalo attempted to take him in flank alter
nately upsetting and rghting the cart again, which
he banged from side to side, and whired about If it
had been bandbox.
Joe, safe out Of harms way, looked down from the
