II is told of General Zachary Taylor, that when
Major Bliss brought him Santa Annals dispatch,
proposing that the American army should surreu-
der without further ceremony, the general who, at
that moment was busy writing private letter on
his cannon chest replied, TELL him to 60 to---I'
naming place seldom mentioned, except BY hard
gallant major, that does not strike me as appro-
pirate language to use in case Of this soIt-it is
formal official dispatch, and requires, suppose, a
written answer."-"Tell him to 60 TOT" reit-
Grated the general calmy. "Pnt it in proper dipo-
matte phrase and all that sort Of thing according

be screw loose about him somewhere:
-" Cuvier was good deal ofawag. He
didn't believe IN the existence of spirits,
and was wholly free from tinidity. Some
wags, on one occasion, planned an attempt
to brighten him. One of their number,
dressing himself in hides, .hoofs, and horns,
after the most approved fashion in which
his Satanic majesty is. portrayed, met him
during his evening walk in the garden.
tWho are You Pas6ed Ouvier.-'The devil,
answered deep, sepulcLral voice, pro-
ceeding from the presence. Well, what
do you want with me P-'I have to eat
