A PROFITABLE WHALE.--A whaling schoon-

turned from voyage, is said t, have captur-
ed sperm whale. from which Nas obtained
eleven barrels Of oil, worth about >lj0 The
most valuable part Of the whale. which WAS Il
very large one, consisted however in til ex-
traordnary secretion in the intcstnes Of about
SIR hundred pounds of ambcrgris. This article
is found in no other than the spermaccti
whale, and is usually found in Jumps weigh
ing from one to thirty pounds. The largest
piece before known weighed one hundred and
cighty-two pounds, and was purchased of the
King of Tidorc by the Dutch East India
Company. Another piece found inside a
whale near the Wndward Islands, was sold
for $500 sterling.
This article is used as II pcrfume-by Ro
manists especially in burning incense in then
churches, and from its scarcity, it is said t,
sell at from $40 to SIG an ounce. Tho ON
tire lot taken by the Waterman was sold t,

purchasers will, probably realize Il far create

THOuGHTs ABOUT TANNING lIoRsES.-Within
the last few months, almost every paper in
the country has published some accounts of
the various methods of tanning horses OF
these the eli ef is the method of Mr. Rarcv,
which has excited so much attention in Eng
laud. The means adopted by Mr.. Rarey are
simple, and not in the main original. The
great point in his system is the compelling
the horse to lie down, by throwing him on
his knees, and then standing quietly by and
gently urging him to lie down, until at last
he does SO from exhaustion, and he will then
quietly submit to be handled in any way the
operator chooses. His method of subdung
a refractory animal has long been known to
professional horse tanners in this country,
and has been very successfully practiced by
Dan Rice, and other trainers Of the horse for
the circus.
In estimating the Importance of this me-
thod of se-taming, it must be borne in
mind that tanning horses and training them
are two different things. The vicious and
refractory horse may, in the short space of a
few hours, be tanned, and by skiltul treat
ment be made to yield himself passive in
strument in the hands of his master. But
he cannot be 50 suddenly taught to perform
the various duties demanded of him, Indeed
the tanning is but the preparatory step tow
ards teaching him the various things requir-
ed of him, for which perfect submission and
obedience are indispensably requisite.
The art of tanning horses cannot be COM
municated in the same manner, and with the
same facility as any of the mechanical arts,
1t can be successfully practised only by per-
sons possessing certain qualifications, and
this very important point seems to have been
entirely overlooked by most writers.
Some men seem born for the express pur-
pose of governing others, and like Caesar or
Napoleon, seem to control, as if by magic,
the will and affections of mankind. We see
this in private families. In some, the pa
rent exacts, without severity and without
difficulty, the most implicit obedience from
his children, while IN others the authority
of the parent is scarcely recognised We
mark the same difference in the teachers Of
our common schools, and in the executive
officers of the Government. So it is in gov
erning animals, some men exhibit a remark
able faculty of managing and subduing the
most stubborn and refractory, while Others
can with difficulty control the most gentle
and submissive. 1t is true, knowledge of
the best mechanical appliances and the most
approved methods of treating the horse, are
important, but the natural qualifications are
Indispensable.

ancc has been lately adverted to, is beginning
to show considerable brilliancy to the naked

server might mistake it for star, but by di

MAINE OFFICE HoLDERs-BAD INVESTMENT
The Buchanan administration have been ex-
ceedingly DESTROYS of breaking into the Re-
publican delegation in Congress, and in two
or three of the districts they have made the
most unwonted exertions to secure the return
of Buchanan representative Money they
have lavished with an unsparing hand. They
levied on all the oflice-holders to the amount
of one tenth of their salaries, and got large
sums in addition from Washington and New
York. This money they have expended in
buying voters, paying for the naturalization
they could to affect the result. Occasionally
they made bad investment. and one case of
this sort is SO exceedingly rich that must
give it a place. One day last week three
rogues We're brought up in the Police Court
at Portland on a charge of stealing the car
cass of sheep; they were convicted and fin
ed each SO and costs, the total being SIS 80.
4 Custom House Officer named SWEET was
present and, enchanted with the prospect of
gaining three Buchanan voters, he promptly
stepped forward and paid the fine and costs.
No sooner was this done than the keeper Of
the House of Correction stepped forward and
claimed two of the culprits as runaways from
his establishment, they having an unexpired
sentence to serve there, and the third Of the
mutton thieves proved to be minor You
may imagine that SWEET sweat some at this
unexpected turn of matters, but there was no
help for it. That fifteen dollars and thirty.
two cents of federal money was gone and not
vote had poor SWEET to show for it. lie
