ETS Some Of our readers are undoubted-
ly expecting reply from US to the scurri-
lous and indecent caricature Of our family
which appeared in the Tribune one evening
last week. We can only say that the ed
itor Of that paper has sunk SO low in pot
house depravity-so far beneath the
meanest pimp that inhabits the bawdy-
house-that at the request of many
respectable Republicans we forbear to
notice him further at this time. Ar
rangements are on foot for the establish
ment of respectable Republican paper
here, which will dispose of this foul blot
upon decent society. The vagabond need
not burthen himself further with a cane for
protection-as he has for the last week,
during our absence at N,icaukee-the pub
lie condemnation will punish him enough
for the dastardly outrage, without persona
chastisement from US.

ed an escape from the hooks and pixies, il
is probable that large number of the
| spectators would have lost their lives.
They were urged BY the showmen to keep
out of the way, but all that was said or
done could scarcely induce them to do
otherwise than to push forward to see what
was going on.
But Hannibal was not totally conquer
ed after all. A stone eight feet long and
two feet square having been chained to his
legs, and the pike poles laid by. his Males
ty embraced an unexpected opportunity to
continue the war. lie put the spearmen
to flight, and chased them about the stone
ward, dragging the immense building stone
AFTER him as fit were stick. The crowd
scattered precipitateIy. With some dar
ing the spearmen again triumphed, and
the elephant was this time more severely
dealt with His legs were again fastened
with a heavy chain, and he was tumbled
over and speared, and stabbed with pitch
forks. the instruments entering to the
depth of three or four inches at every
thrust, blood flowing i'll streams. He en-
dured the torture without finching for
some time, but he copious blood letting
at length reduced his rage: and be sue
cumbed, making q peculiar noise known to
all keepers of wild animals by the term of
begging" When this stage of humilia-
ton has been produced, it is Away consid-
cred safe to release ferocious beast.
Hannibal was then driven back a con-
quered hero to the show ground, where he
was securely fastened by means of heavy
chains.
This elephant was brought to America
in the year 1874, by Mr.. Van Amburgh,
and is one of the largest of his Species
His height is % feet inches He is
claimed to be onethird larger than any
other elephant ever brought to this coun-
try. Bayard Taylor tes:ifes that he is
considerably larger than the majority of
elephants which be had met with either in
Asia or Africa When Hannibal was i'm
ported ia 1S44, it was thought that he was
already old, but as he has been growing
ever since, the showmen have concluded
that he is still young-the natural term of
life of the species being from 800 to $50
years.
This animals reputation was formerly
almost unparalleled for viciou.ness, but
during the last FIVE years he had apparent
y reformed, and became docle in charac
ter. Before that time he had broken loose,
and had killed, on different occasions, as
many as seven persons. The last exploit
Of the kind which Hannibal undertook pre-
yious to the present one, was in 1858,
when he sprung open the door Of his cage
and after effecting pretty general denol-
ition of the company's cages and transport
tation wagons, ran away nine miles into
the country before he was captured.
The damage sustained by Van Amburgh
& Co, by the wagons and cages spoiled,
yesterday, amounts to a considerable sum.
The wild animals which he released were
all secured with difficulty.

OXYGENATED BITTERS.

The annexed statement of Prof. A. A.
HAf YES, NJ. d., State Assayer, is ample
testimony of the scientific manner in
which this medicine is compounded, and
recommends it professional men, as
worthy fair trial in their practice:
An opinion having been asked for, of
me, in consequence of the formula for pre-
parlng Oxygenated Bitters being known to
me, l express the following in form:
The composition of these Bitters includes
those medicinal substances which expert
enced physicians have long resorted to
for special action on the system, when de-
ranged by Fevers, Dyspepsia, Agues and
General Debility, resulting from exposure
os climate influence.
These are rendered permanent. and re-
main active, in his preparation, as a con-
sequence of scientific manner in which
they are combined.
1t was well founded inference that the
preparation, used in larger or smaller doses
would prove valuable General Med,cine,
which experience has demonstrated.
In this medicine, no metallic salts can
be found, by the most delicate chemical
trial. Respectfully,

Steamer Wrecked.
SACKyJLLr. n 3 Nov

SAcKv1LLE, N. B Nov %.
The schooner Victoria, which has arriv-
ed at Halifax reports, having passed a
vessel within six hundred yards, across the
rocks off greensboro. The wreckers de-
scribed her as having black hull, sharp
bows, elliptic stern and only the mizen-
mast standing.
1t is impossible from the description, to
identify the vessel. 1t is however,supposed
to be the Cunard steam packet Delta.
A description of the wreck is said to
answer that of the Cunard packet steamer
Delta, running between Bermuda, Halifax,
and St. Johns. The Delta lefe Halifax on
Saturday for New Foundland. 1t is not
likely that she had many passengers or
board, and hopes are entertained that all
were saved.

GENERAL JAIL DELIvERY--Eight per
50 IS escaped from our County Jail last
evening, in manner which shows how
the most watchful care on the part Of the
TAILOR, will sometimes fail. Sheriff Law
ton, the better to guard against escape of
this kind, had, a short time since, put up
a diamond partition in the hall leading to
the cells, and provided it with strong
lock, so that when the outside door was
opened that leads into the hall, double
security would be afforded. This inner
lock. the prisoners, eight in number, who
had at this time the privilege of the hall,
had picked and when last evening, about
dark, as Mr. West, the turnkey, opened
the outer door, they made a grand rush,
knocked him down, and away they scam
pered in all directions.
Sheriff Lawton, who happened to be in
another part of the building, hearing the
noise, was quickly on hand, but only in
time to see his "boarders" making hasty
tracks, and he also made hasty pursuit,
With what little aid he summoned on the
moment, he succeeded in capturing FIVE OF
the rascals. and the other three are yet at
large. Much cred: is due the sheriff for
his energy and promptness on the occasion,
and the marvel is how he succeeded in ar
resting so many of them, taking into con-
sideration the lateness of he hour, and
suddenness of the outbreak. The names
