MAsTODONS.


The discovery, some years ago, Of Che
remains OF mmamoth, in northern Sihe
ria, attracted much attention. The carcass
of the antediluyiso vegetarian was found
imbedded in an ice cliff many feet above
The surface of the soil The summer sun
gradually dissolved the crystal toub, and
the huge body came to the earth only to
be devoured by the dogs which had scent
cd the flesh afar off Thus perished-a Il
save the bones and hde--a specimen which
any museum would have regarded as indeed
priceless. .ra
Aud now comes word of the disentomb
ing Of another carcass, in that same frozen
zone. The Imperial Academy OF Scieuoe
Of S.. Petersburg, Russia, which possesses
the skin an bones of the irst-named speci.
men) has been notified Of the discovery o!
the body near the bay OF Tas, on the east.
ern arm of the GU of Obi. II is represent
ed as inbedded in the froz N earth, Jet SO
exposed as to be fully identified In Feb.
ruary, The Academy commissioned a we'll
known palwOntologist, one of their body,
to visit the spot, aud note It's geology, to.
gother with every possible particular con
corning the mammoth. We may therefore
hope to have, in due tmo detailed report
of the discovery. as well MS OF the appear
ance of the animal, aud should circumsEsu,
ces prove favorable, Of the contents of It's
stomach.
The subject is the more interesting, in
asmuch as it involves the question Of q
change Of climate since the age when the
mammoth roamed along the shores Of what
is now frozen sea. How came these CO.
lossai herbiVora, whose natural home must
have been in the tropics, to infest Siberia?
Such vast Numbers did that region feed,
that gnarries of their tusks are now found,
and The ivory trade receives from thence
much of its best supply! Daily are cart
loads of these Interesting relics passing
from the docks to the .shops OF course it
proves, that, what is now the earth's fro
zen zone, once was its temperate or torrid
zone. That the change of the poles v as
sudden and violent, is apparent from the
fact that these animals were caught there
and pershed in droyes by the change
That the change was at a comparatively
recent date, Is also TO be assumed. The
very existence of these two csroasses,
having on their hido aud hair and flesh,
contavenes any idea of geogolic age. In
Ohio and Ken ucky, bones of ne m9slodoA
have been exhumed imbedded TO some
depth in the soil, whose DIP s.s snd nccre'
ton above tho remains, would seem to in
ply distant era for thu animals existence
but, it remains to be shown that the age
was remoter than a few thousand years. or
that the race of men who built The mounds
which dot the Northern States. did not
'hen also exist. Let US hope the new 81
berian exhumation will assist 10 solving
the interesting question of dates and cir
cumsiances involved.

BIRDS.

Birds, fitting gay mid Southern trees, na

Birds, floating on the Northern breeze, iofI
Through all the happy summer sing.
Birds gladden. many quiet home,

They know not what it Is to roam,
E.Nor e'er for untried freedom long.
But sweeter than the wild birds strain,
And softer than the home birds note
Are songs that of, through heart and brain,
anIn gently nningling cadence hoat. 'Jt

Not Drop More. 'Thout 1t is swestoned

Twenty years ago, il was the custom in
northwestern Georgia, as it was, indeed
throughout the southwest, for dry goods
dealers to keep barrel of spirits in the
back room, aud 10 treat liberal customers
to glass whenever desired.
Fllens and Dewberry we're such dealers,
in one of the small towns indicated, and
they had for a customer clever, rollicking
old fellow named Joe Denny, who drank
whisky to water always, and whose wife
was flesh of his hosh in that particular.
The old couple would come to town, trade
quite freely. aud as freely imbibe the spirits
in the back room CT the dealers We have
mentioned. .n .o -a--
On one occasion, both the old man and
the old woman continued their potstions
inordinaiely, aud as Filleus observed bis
goods went the better the drunken the old
woman became, be pressed her 10 drink
AT last she refused, unless he would sweet

dulged her, and when the old people sarted
home late in the evening, the old man could
scarcely mount his horse, and the good
wife had actually to be lifted aud placed
on The pillon behind him. Happily she
leaned one way and her husband the other,
50 that the graVtating point was between
them; as she clung to him instinctively
they passed out of be village safely.
Before reaching their home, however,
they had to cross a small creek. and when
the horse stepped 10 to drink, the old lady
having reached unconsciousness, released
her hold and quietly lapsed into the stream
below. Occupied with his thoughts, the
old man did not perceive bis loss, bu:
logged slowly homeward. Arrived there,
the children snxiously inquired for mommy
but the old man could only say she had
been on the critter, and the critter hadn's
kicked up nary time, so he couldn't tell
where she mont be and threw himself
stupidity on the bed.
Girls and boys few along the road the
old man had eome-yslling nanny nam

Upon this false assumption he builds his
beautiful theory of reconciliation" -
No man with any reputation to lose, e,who
had been sober one day 10 six since the re-
belllou collapsed would have bazarded such
a statement. SO far from those rebel COM
munties. having accepted the conditions of

possibly hold an army together. They
accepted the situation with the alacrity
aud Cheerfulness that maleiaetor accepts
the halter. So far from rsrouncing the
principals aud practices Of secession the
treason aud deviltry that was partially

bloody war,wss waImed into renewed vigor
by the mistaken lenieney of the President.
Mr.. Seward says all we want now is very
little reconciliation; the Government has not
been destroyed and needs no reconstruction
In his mild way he says, 'the Southern States
during tour years wore deranged and disor-
ganized in their constitutional relation to the
Union" There hasn't been much of a shower
after all--no body is to blame for what has hap
pened and Congress must be made up ofa
paltry set Of cusses if they can't forgive our
Southern bre.hern for butchering our Union
