Anecdotes of the Nnturnllst waterton.

The Pail Mall Gazette says: cdr. Hobson, q
Leeds physician, has just given the world sundry
"reminiscences of most wonderful specimen OF
muscular christianity. The christianity, indeed,
s not precisely of the type most in favor with the
votaries of the new school, but the muscuarity Of
the particular christian in question throws all the
!eats of novel and magazine christians altogether
IN the shade. The late Charles Waterton, the
Yorkshire squire naturalist, the rider upon crOco
dlIes, and the ardent defender Of the JeGuits, is
Dr. Hobsons hero, and unique hero he must
have been. Dr. Hobson declares that he saw him
when seventy-seven years of age scratch the back
part OF his head with the great toe of his right
foot If this is not enough to make half the clowns
in the London theaters die of envy, they must be
muscular christians themselves.
THE crocodilerlding was one of Mr.. Wa er.
!on's humblest feats, for the brute had b, en-

Il Engstone, Professor Kingsley, or Mr.. Lever, when

A New MAGAZINE The Boston correspondent
/ the Detroit Tribune writes:
You must know we are to have a new magazine
,re-a weekly magazine, modelled on Every Sat
day, yet differing from it in one important fea-
re; it will be made up ofpurely original matter,
dwill aim at presenting fyelier kind of read
g than any American periodical now published.
.Srangements, editorial and business are not yet
mpleted; yet it is settled that Mrs Julia Ward
pwe and j. R. Gilmore (Enmun& Kirke) are to be
editors; that Trowbridge, Oliver Optic, s. H.
", late of the N. Y. Tribune, Richard H. Kim
partment, and other writers of note, will con
ute its regular editorial staff. The bulk of its
4tents, however, is expected from young and
Known writer's; it being designed as medium
struggling talent which cannot find access to
sting periodicals. The stock of the concern,
900, has been snapped up with ayidity, and a
I hitting house of the highest reputation has un-
taken the mechanical work.

EXTRAORDINARY EFFECTS OF THE

received on the evening of the same
day =

No more telegrams-without funds-they

As soon as business could be trans
acted at the bank the next morning

and dollars in gold for our general
news agent in London, and then tele-
graphed simply :-"Cash deposit in

thousand dollars in gold" This he
probably received yesterday Thus
the whole business transaction was ac-
complished in little more than twenty
four hours. We begin to experience
some of the extraordinary effects of
the Atlantic cable, but we have not vet
imagined what these will be. All i'm

The Last of Lees Army
-FOUR MORE SURRENDER.


The serenity of the office of the
commanding officer of the post was
agitated on yesterday, by the appari-
ton of four Confederate soldiers, who
| gave their names and descriptive lists
as follows:
Anthony Monkas, co. f, fifty-sec-
ond Georgia infantry, Sd army corps,
A. n. V.
Thos Wells, ditto.
Allan Tewksberry, Add Louisiana,
do.
A more ragged set of mortals had
never appeared before the colonel dur
inc all the dealings he has ever had
with the ragged rebels" OF Lee $ army.
Tewksberry was a sort of walking IL
lustration of original patchwork His
clothing had been tied, and sewed and
stuck together with strings, and thread
and thorns, until there did not appear
solitary square inch upon it which
had not been tied up, sewed up, or
stuck up, in some way or other. His
companions were not quite as badly
off, one having a pair of blue yankee
pantaloons with only half a dozen
rents in it; another hiding the ragged
ness of his gray pants with flowing,
though ribbony, yankee overcoat, and
the other making his decency apparent
by concealing the defects of his upper
garments with an old oil cloth fly,
awfully bedaubed with mud.
Tewksberry stated to the colonel
that he and his party stopped on the
Appomattox, about seven miles above
the city, after the evacuation of Peters
burg, for the purpose, at first, OF
resting; that they staid longer than
they expected, and were cut of. They
then made VOW to live on that spot,
and never go home or give up until
the Confederacy was completely an
initiated. They sought out a cave on
the banks of the river, which at that
point is very rocky, and after some
little industry succeeded in erecting
for themselves a most comfortable
little home. Here they lived upon
fish and game, and occasional roast
inc ears during all last summer, and
upon bread made of corn they had
gathered from the corn fields, and an
occasional pig they found without
mother in their rambles during the
winter. This spring and summer they
lived as they did last summer; but
recently, hearing from an old negro
man that the Confederacy had undoubt
edly ''gone up" they concluded to
quit the barbarian life and surrender.
They marched to the city yesterday
morning, with their mnskets and &C
coutrements, stacked arms in front of
headquarters, sent in word that they
