crowd, prompted by spirit of mischief,
hied on large bull dog to attack the
huge animal. The dog instantly obeyed,
and plunging into the water, seized hold
of one of tho hind legs of the elephant,on
which the latter only switched him with
his tail as he would brush off fly, but
not ridding himself of his assailant by
such gentle means, and feeling sharp teeth
at work upon his leg, he suddenly threw
his snot around, and seizing the dog,
him under the water until he was nearly
drowned; then raising him high in the
air, threw him at least hundred feet out
into the stream. Fully satisfied with
the punishment he had received, the dog
made his way TO the shore, and beat a
hasty retreat.

WELL DONE.

II seems now to be nearly certain that
Che black republicans will not have a ma
jority in the Kansas constitutional con-
yention. The latest advices Of the result
Of the election are brought by the Law
renee Herald Of Freedom, which says:
"The convention will consist of fifty
four members, if the two arc admitted to
seats from Wyandotto county, which, Of
course, will be the case, and twenty eight
members will be a majority. 1t is certain
the democrats have twenty-five, and prob
ably twenty-six, of this number. If so,
the free State delegates elect, ono from
Johnson and one from Bourborn, will hold
the balance of power"
These "free State delegates" we un-
derstand TO have been elected on independ-
ent tickets. They are doubtless demo
Gratis who have not taken part in the re.
cent organization of the democratic party
in the Territory, but who will act with it.
Well done, Kansas! Her democratic
journals all predict that she will come in
TO the Union democratic State and cast
her vote for the democratic candidate fol
President. Well done!
