Horace GREELEY on THE BUFFALo.-In a

"What strikes the stranger with most

know a million is a great many, but ain con-
lident we saw that number yesterday. Ger.
taInly all we saw could not have stood on ten
square miles of ground. Often, the coun-
try for miles on either hand seemed quite
black with them. The soil is rich, and we'll
matted with their foyolite grass. Yet it is
all Except a very little on the creek bottoms,
near to timbe,) eaten down like an ovc,,ax,d
sheep pasture in dry August. Consider
that we have lraverscd more than one hume d
mllcs in width since we first struck them.
and that for most of this distance the Buffalo
have been constantly i'll sight, and tina, they
continue for some twenty-five miles further on
this being the breadth of their present
range. which has a length of perhaps hous-
and miles and you have some approach to
anilea OF countless millions. doubt wheth
cr the domesticatcd horned cattle of the UNI

must fall considerably short in weight, Of

To KEEP Butter HARD AND Cool. "A
writer in the Scientific .4merrtan recommends
to the ladies very simple arrangement for
keeping butter nice and cool in the hotties,
weather. Procure large, new flower pot of
sufficient size to cover the butter plate, and
also saucer large enough for the flower pot
to rest in upside down; place trvet OF
meat stand (such as is sent TO the oven when
joint is baked) in the saucer, and put OH
this tivet the plate cf butter; now fill the
saucer with water, and turn the flower pot
over the butter, so that its edge will be below
the water. The hole in the pot must be fit
ted with cork; the butter will then he in
what we call an alright chamber. Let the
whole of the outside of the flower pot be then
thoroughly drenched with water and place it
in as cool place as you can. If this be
done over night the butter will be as firm
as rock at breakfast time; or, if placed
there in the morning, the butter will be quite
hard for Use at tea hour. The reason OF this
is, that when water evaporatcs, it produces
cold; the porous pot draws up the water
which in warm weather quickly evaporates
from tie sides and thus cools it. and as no
warm Dir can get at the butter it becomes
firm and cool in the hottest day.

TONNAGE OF THE WORLD. English
paper says: AT present it may interest
our readers to know the extent of the mcr
chant marine. from which may be estimated
the real maritime power. The Tonnage of the
world is bout 10 millions. the United States
being first, United Kingdom second, France
third, and British colonies fourth, but if we
take Great Britain and her colonies together
they amount to trhe over that of the Great
Republic. This is sad change from 1913.
when all the European ports were blockaded
by us, not an enemy's ship appearing on the
ocean, except those Of our cousins, with whom,
as well as the Great Napoleon. we were then
at war. Our merchant marine far exceeded
the rest of the world Now we only stand
as to 3 When Parliament meets British
shipping should in all respects be placed on
an equality with foreign by reciprocity
Since the change Of the Navigation laws,
without it foreign has increased in our carry
ing trade as 1 to |. Let us then have Justice
done to this great national interest, the nur-
sery of our fleet.

An UNEQUAL CONTEST. An amusing Incl
dent occurred while Van Amburgh's mcnag-
erie was crossing the Appomattox. a short
distance above the Pocahontas bridge, strik-
lngly illustrative of the fact that the bulldog
is the most courageous of all animals. and
VIII attack any creature, regardless of size.
As the elephant entered the water with his
usual slow and cautious step, some individual
in the crowd, prompted by spirit of mis-
chief, HE'D on large bulldog TO attack the
huge animal. The dog instantly obeyed. and
plunging into the water. seized mold of one of
the hind legs of the elephant, on which the
latter only switched him with his tail rs he
would brush off fly, but not Kidding HIM
self of his assailant by such gentle means, and
feeling sharp teeth at work upon his leg, he
suddenly threw his snout around. and, selz-
ing the dog, held 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 be had received, the dog
made his way to shore, and beat hasty
retreat.

HUMAN WONDERS. "A correspondent of the

An engineer, connected With the Jcckel
surveying party informs ME that in running
his line across the mountains between this
place and Tehauntepec, he came across Tndi-
ans who never saw white man in their lives
who spoke no language known to his party,
and were absolute " free lovers, living alto
geIher, and twenty or thirty men and women
sleeping in one bed, and acknowledging a
community Of wives and properties. In
another place he passed through village
where the Indians had light hair, fair com

where all the inhabitants were lepers, cover
