FoRBIGN NEws.-The screw-steamship JHrd
of the Cnnard auxiliary line, arrived at New
York Monday morning, bringing European ad-
vices to February 18th The proceedings OF
Parliament are without interest. In France a
great sensation had been produced by min
sterial warning which had been addressed to
the PresSe in consequence of an article OF the
same warlike character as it had been uttering
for several weeks previously. The warning
was rumored to have been demanded by the
Austrian Ambassador, under the alternative OF
demanding his passports and to have been en-
ergetically resisted by Prince NAPOLEON. The
effect upon the Bourse was favorable, produ-
cling an immediate rise in the rentes, which,
however was lost in q few hours. 1t was
adroitly neutralzed also by an official recon-
mendation to the Provincial Chambers of Com
merce aud journals to cease their pacific memo
rials and discussions. The preparations for
war continued without abatement. The Paris
correspondent of the Times states that he has
information from an unquestionable quarter,
that the King of Sard mia will uBdertake the
war at an early day, single-handed, relying up
on the active cooperation of France at the
right moment. Much apprehension was felt in
political circles in consequence of the threat
ening state of affairs on the Danube-Turkev
having declared against the consolidation of the
Principaties, as violation of the Treaty of
Paris. From India, the war upon the insur-
gents had been attended with uninterrupted
success. The campaign in Dude was ended.

Fossil ELEPHANT The Hon. Rolla Glea-
son, of Richmond, brought into our Office this
morning several fragments of a large tusk
which was dug out yesterday from mari pit
on his farm. The specimen was hastily broken
by the men but the three principal pieces
showed us would in all make about three feet
in length, and at the largest part the circum-
ference must have been about fifteen inches.-
The natural gelatine having been all dissolved
out into the marshy ground the solid portions
were left in a very brittle condition, as is usual
in such cases. The discovery is one of very
great interest Probably more of the bones Of
the animal-a fossil elephant probably like the
one which some bones were found in a marshy
place, near the Mount Holly summit of the
Rutland Il Burlington Railroad, years ago.
can be found there. We understand that some
of the officers of the University have gone this
afternoon to Richmond for further examna-
ton of the place. We hope their explorations
may result in an important addition to the
Natural History collections of the University of
Ncrmont.-Eree Press, 2nd.
We understand that Professor ToRREY, OF
the University, visited the spot where the in
teresting fossil was discovered, in Richmond,
for the purpose of instituting further investi-
cations. We have not learned the result of
these Investigations.

IT'S only little grave, they said,
Only Just child that's dead;'
And 50 they carelc.sly turned away
From the mound the spade had made that day.
Ah, they did not know how deep shade
That little grave in our home had made.

One yard would have served for an ample pail;
And one mau in his arms could have borne away
The rosebud and its freight Of clay.
But know that darling hope. were hid
Beneath that coflin-ld
! know that mother stood that day
with folded hands by that form Of clay;
know that burning tears were hid,
Meath the dropping lash and aching lid;'
Aud knew her lip, aud check and brow,
Were almost us white Us her babys, now.
knew that some things were hill away,
The crimson iIock, and wrappngs gay;
The little sock und the half-worn shoe,
The cap with it. plumcs and tnsses blue;
And an empty crib with lis covers spread,
As white It's the face uf it, siuless dead.
'Tis a little grave, but, oh! beware!
For worldwide hopes are buried there,
And We, perhaps, IN coming years.
May see, like lcr. through binding tear,
How much Of light how much Of juy,
Is buried up with an only boy

The above tables, while they indicate grad
ual but steady growth from year to year in the
number of animals in nearly all of the several
classes, do not tell the whole truth. If the
yearly increase is gratifying the Improvement
that has been made manifest, if not directly
stimulated by these successive exhibitions is
still more encouraging. In all the departments
of stock the animals that have been bred dur
ing the last four years are far in advance of
those that were on the stage when the Fairs
were first held. The essential points and quail
tiles that give character and usefulness to the
animals in these different divisions are more
perfectly and more constantly developed in the
breeding of to-day than in that OF ten years
since. This change is SO great as to be patent
OF the most casual observer. In the other de-
partments of the exhibition the improvement
manifested is, we believe, equally as great and

An AMERICAN COUGAR KILLED IN GENEsEE
CoUNTY-IMMENsE "NARMINT."-For some
two or three years past, the sheep pastures of
Genesec county and the whole meighborhood of
Tonawada Swamp, have been subject to the
depredatons of some on-loving animal,
and the farmers have sustained serious losses
thereby The mischief was attributed to the
dogs, and those exemplars, and emblems Of f.
deity, were brought into serious disrepute
Sportsmen in that locality, however, had OBJ
tanned glimpses, at night, Of some powerful
creature, which always evaded their shot, terri
fed the dogs and escaped in the darkness.
Stories of some wild animal Of the panther
species were related to incredulous people, who
laughed at the reports brought by hunters re-
turning from nocturnal sports in the forests.
Last winter, however, traces were discovered in
the snow, which were supposed by those not
very well posted in natural history to be those
of bear. The creature was never traced to
his lair, and the matter had nearly passed into
tradition. On Tuesday night, party of coon
hunters verified the stories which had been cur
rent in the neghborhood of Batavia for months
past, about the existence in the swamps Of
huge Panther or Cougar, which prayed upon
the sheep-iolds thereabout. When about four
teen miles from Batavia, in the Tonawanda
swamp. they came upon the Cougar, who was
percheu upon inc llmD OF a tree. lie bounded
away on their approach, but was followed close
ly by the dogs,-who were roughly handled,
and melted to the chase with some difficulty
and again took refuge in tree, and rested up
on limb some thirty feet from the ground.
The cougar had become very much enraged,
and his eyes almost shamed the brightness of
the torches borne by the hunters. Rifles were
soon brought, and three bullets were shot into
him. Two took effect in the head, and the cou-
gar dropped to the ground and was soon dis
patched.
He was found to measure eight feet from the
extremity Of his powerful paws to the end of
his tail and his weight was l47 pounds. The
captors of this animal brought the carcass into
their village in triumph, and it was for some
time spectacle of rare interest in that locality.
These creatures are not found in this locality
once in twenty years. Whether this one was a
solitary specimen or not, is not vet known. He
was quite fat, and his forearm was as large as
that of strong man. A gentleman from this
city saw this trophy of the chase brought in by
the proud hunters.-[ Rochester Democrat, Sep.

A WIFE,S DEVOTION

So for long hours sat Enid bv her lord,
There in the naked hail. propping his head,
And chHfng his pale hands and calling to him.
And at the last hc wakcned from his swoon,
And found his own dear bride pruppng his head
And chnling his faint hands, and calling TO him;
And felt the warm tears falling on his face
And said to his own heart "She wecps for me-;
And yet lay still and lcigned himself n, dead,
That lie might prove her TO the utenno,t,
And say to his own heart, "Sle wecps for me"

what incongruous professions of preacher and
money lender, was offering prayer in which
was the following petition: Grant that we may
have more interest in heaven!" "Don't do it,

it. The old sinner gets five per cent. a month
