ELEPHANT BATHING IN INDIA.-Beyond
the dhoby, in cleaner water by comparison
a bevy of elephants are enjoying their
morning bath And they do enjoy it in
deed See how they roll away like so
many porpoises, right under the food, and
leave the mahouts shouting and cropping
with their feet for the unstable black is
lands which after a time rise up above the
surface. Look at the great jets they blow
up over their backs, and listen to the deep
breath of pleasure or the shrill flourish
of delight with which they lie down on
the sand while their attendants knead them
all over, These great creatures are so
sagacious, ,sosensitiye to kindness, that even
in their wild state cannot feel any sym
pathy for those who delight in killing them
and call it sport" But these elephants,
fond as | am OF them, are, il must he ad-
mited, dangerous playmates. In our
camp there were no less than nine koo-

have killed their nahouts, or other at

The Mines-Horace Greeley sold.

There is no doubt but the Rocky Mountain
claim owners sold Mr.. Greeley al the mines.
The statement is corroborated from various
qusrters, and by men who were on the ground.
The last Tuscarawas Advocate states that Mr.:
Blouse, one of the Tuscarawas miners, has just
arrived from the Gregory Diggings, and brings
discouraging accounts from the mines gene
rally The Gregory are the only diggings found
that will pay, and only about one hundred men
are employed there who make good wages.
Thousands are searching the mountains in vain
for gold, and many are leaving for home.
M. B. corroborates the report that Mr.. Gree
ley was fooled by the miners, aud by Mr. Gre
CORY himself, Gregory told Greeley to dig up
a shovel full of dirt and he would wash it out
in his presence, and chow him that his diggings
were no humbug. Greeley did as directed.
Gregory then washed it out having in the
meantime gold dust deposited in his sleeve,
which he let drop into the pan Greeley
was of course astonished at the richness Of
the diggngs-published statement-the peo-
pie having confidence in him, hocked to Gre
gory's diggngs and Gregory sold his claims at
big figure So states Mr. Blouse, a respecta

The movement for Christian Anti Slavery
Convention at Columbus, Aug 10 and II, is
an important one, aud urgently called for Just
now.
Although the Administration has backed out
Of its fixed design TO enforce in Northern Ohio,
the Fugitive Slave Act, and petitioned for an
armistce, on condition that the tools Of the
shareholders should escape the penalty Of hang
ing on the gallows they labored to erect for
the best men Of the land; yet the slave power
never felt stronger than it does to-day. Wit
ness the recent speech of Hon.A II Stephens,
Of Georgia. He says, "thst slavery is stronger
now than it was sixteen years ago, that moth
ing improves like il; that all the barriers to its
indefinite expansion are removed, and that it
only needs Africans to enable it to consummate
the hopes of its most ardent friends; that there
are more men at the North to day, who believe
in the social and moral condition of slavery
than there were sixteen years ago, and, that
slavery has for its support, the. Creator Nature,
and the Higher Law"
The present aspects Of the contest present
this as the main question, is slavery Divine
institution The Columbus Convention should
meet this issue and bring to bear upon the pub
lie mind the great moral considerations with
which Gods word abounds, characterising
saycholding as sin, and cnjoning upon the
Church the duty of treating it as such Sla-
very will never be driven out of the State until
it is cast out of the Church
Il is earnestly desired that there should be
full attendance from all parts of the State
Let the Christian Anti.Slavery sentiment of
every denomination be well represented
Nearly all the Railroads leading to Columbus
will carry members at half fare. S.

The City Council of Cincinnati passed a
stringent Railroad ordinance, so stringent that
it was predicted the street railroad companies
would make no bids under it. Bids were ad.
yertised for under provision of the ordinance,
aud eleven bids were received for four of the
ive routes. The bids ranged from S25 to 500
per car, or one cent per passenger. Bids
we're also presented for reduction on commu-
taton tickets The Times thinks the Tux per
car, or per passenger will be adopted, most
probably the latter, as likely to produce the
greatest revenue, and that an effort will be
made to dispense with the revenue on those
routes where the bids are one cent per passen-
ger, by reducing the fare to four instead of five
cents 1t is anticipated that a revenue Of some
$40, 900 may be derived from the four principal
roads.

The surface Of our country is gridironed
With British rails, the interest and principal of
ths debt for which are literally eating us
up The ores for the manufacture of all the
iron We want are distributed with lavish
hand throughout the country, laborers are
seeking emplor ment in their manufacture, aRd
yet such is the ruinous and reckless policy of
the National Administration and the party
which has so long ruled the country, that we
are not only still importing British rails, but
have them delivered in our ports from British
ships Thus we foster British manufactures,
British labor, and British commerce 10 the
neglect Of our own, and the million on mil
lions OF gold dug from the mines of California
90 into British Golfers, instead Of into the
pockets Of our own manufacturers, srtizans,
laborers, and farmers We export the precious
metals to pay debts incurred for just what we
should make at home. Here is a fresh illus
trAtiJn
Two British ships laden with 1900 tons of
rails, Tor a railroad in Virginia, have lately ar
rived at Alexandria and discharged their car
goes, TO be laid upon American soil filled with
iron ore and coal, aud more are to follow
Most Of the railroad iron imported is Of an in
fenor quality, as is shown by the test Of use OF
the rails. They will be generally worn out
before paid for, and very many Of the compa-
nies that went abroad for cheap bargains will
be in hopeless bankruptcy.
Il has been correctly remarked, that had the
policy adopted by the Twenty.seventh Con-
gtess in the passage of the Tariff Of 1912 pre-.
vailed from that time down to the present, we
should now be largely exporting railroad and
other iron instead of importing Our gold
would have been kept at home, aud thousands
of American mechanics and laborers would
have exchanged idleness for paying employ
ment. Democracy wiled otherwise, and Brit
ish rails are, in consequence, dead weight on
the land

A Coon MovE.-A very excellent movement
is on foot in the city of Toronto, for the cstab-

The contest in Kentucky presents some sin
gulal rivalries. The Commercial says:-"Ihe
Opposition have headed the Democracy in their
pro slavery fanaticism and the Democracy are
heading the Opposition in shouting hosannas
to the memory of Henry Clay. Hardly an
Opposition speech has been made in Kentucky
this summer, but the unfaithfulness of the De-
mocracy to the cause of slavery has been lu-
minously set forth, and every Democrat who
las lifted up his voice from a stump of the
dark and bloody ground, has strained himself in
the effort to eulogize Henry Clay"

The Peace of Vnlurruucu.

The causes assigned by the two Emperors
for the conclusion Of the peace arranged at
Vlllafranca, are briefly given in their ad-
dresses to their respective armies, given below.
The natural allies of Austria, to whom the
Emperor refers, are undoubtedly, first, the
German States, including Prussia, and, second
oudly, England, through the instrumentality of
the Derby government. Napoleon acknowledges
that the war was assuming proportions which
the interests of France did not demand, refer
ring doubtless to the revolutionary complica-
tions of the Italian States including the Ro-
man, and Hungary. 1t is evident that the
belgerents on both sides were eager to cry
quits. t is stated that the interview between
the Emperors at Villafranca lasted nearly a
whole day.
