TOUGH CARcAss.--A few years since, an ele-
plant, while crossing a bridge at North Adams,
Mass, tumbled through and died from the effects OF
the tumble. His remains were given to Williams
College, whose faculty wanted the skeleton complete,
but not the flesh, and consequently committed the
body to the ground, with chemicals enough to eat up
the carcasses Of dozen such beasts. But they don't
work, and at last VISIT and dsinterment recently
made, there was grand stew going on, an overpow.
ering bad fragrance, and but little decomposition
The remains were covered up, and the old elephant
left to his rest.

A GREAT RASCAL CAuGHT.-The Louisville Jour.
nal informs US that Alexander Norton, who perpe.
trated series of successful forgeres in that city
some time ago. was captured in Chicago the 18th,
and delivered to the custody of Louisville officer.
The Journal gives the following account of the mans
operations:
Our readers doubtless remember that in January
last man who called himself Alex. Norton swindled
Mr.. w. E. Snoddy out of several thousand dollars.
Mr.. s. had been travelling with him time previous
on steamboat, and became fayorably impressed with
him. When Norton arrived here, be sought out Mr..
Snoddy, and passed off on him three forged checks
for $l0,0O0 $500 and $500 on Rockford, Brown &
Co., of New Orleans, certified by the Citizens Bank
in 1000 barrels of pork for bonus OF $1,000 negro
boy, and two Hardin county bonds OF $1,000 each, to
the amount in all of $3.50, and receiving the cash
only the two small checks for $500, he paid for
his purchases with the check for $40 0OO and refus
ing money for the balance requested and received
due bill for $3.50. He did not take the negro with
him. It has since leaked out also that he called on
Messrs. Dumesniel d Co., who were the agents for
the R. j. Ward, which boat was in port, an engaged
passage on her for New Orleans Being short of
money owing to his extensive transactions with Mr.
Snoddy, he gave Messrs. D. 4 Co. sight draft on
New York. which they cashed. 1t was ascertained
that he did not take passage on the Ward and the
draft turned out to be worthless. Detectives were
dispatched alter hmf, but without success He was
heard of in Texas, in New York, and other parts Of
the country where he had practiced similar rascates
Yet, as he had stiff arm and a very peculiar lip,
hopes entertained that he would be taken
or later, and they have been realized.
