or,ein Of Seeing the Elephant, I,

About thirty years since, at one of the
theatres, pageant was in rehearsal. in
which it was necessary to have an ele-
phant No elephant was tobe had. The
wild beasts" were all travelling, and the
property-man, stage director and mana
gers almost had fits when they thought Of
1t. Days passed in the hopeless task Of
trying to secure one, but at last ingenu-
ity triumphed, aud the elephant was
made to order, of wood, skins, paints
and varnish Thus far the matter was
very we'll; but as yet they found no
means to make said combination trsvel
Here, again, the managers, the stage di-
rector aud property man struck out, and
two kroths were duly installed as legs.
Ned Cox, one Of the true, genuine
~b'hoys," held the responsible station Of
fore legs, and for several nights played

the heavy part to the entire satisfaction
of the managers and the delight Of the
audience The part, however, was very
tedious one, as the elephant was obliged
to be on the stage for an honr, and Ned
was rather too fond Of the bottle to re-
main so long without wetting his whis-
tie, SO he set his wits to work to find a
way to carry a wee drop with him. The
eyes of the elephant being made of two
porter bottles, with the necks in, Ned
conceived the brilliant idea of filling
them with good stuff This he fully car
ried out, and elated with success, he
willingly undertook to play fore legs
again. 9 1o sm an t7
Night came on, the theatre was densely
crowded. the music was played in the
sweetest strains, the curtain rose and the
play began. Ned and the g hind-legs
marched upon the stage The elephant
was greeted with round after round of
applause; the decorations and trappings
we're gorgeous. The elephant and the
prince upon his back we're loudly cheered.
The play proceeded-the elephant was
marched round and round upon the
stage. The fore-legs got dry, withdrew
one of the corks and treated the hind
legs, and they drank the health of the
audience in a bumper of genuine ele-
phant-eye whiskey, brand till then I'M.
known. The concluding march was to
be made--the signal was given, and the
fore-legs were staggering to the front OF
the stage. The conductor pulled the
elephants ear to the right--the fore-legs
staggered to the left. The footlights OBJ
structed the way, and he raised his foot
and stepped into the orchestra! Down
went the fore-legs on the leaders fiddle
over, of course, turned the elephant,
sending the prince and the hind-legs into
the middle of the pit The managers
stood horror struck-the prince and the
hind-legs lay confounded, the boxes in
commissions, the actors choking with
laughter, and poor Ned, casting one
look, a strange blending of drunkenness,
grief and laughter at the nscene, fed
hastily out of the theatre, closely fol-
lowed by the leader, with the wreck of
his fiddle, performing various cut and
thrust motions in the air. The curtain
dropped on scene behind the scenes.
No more pageant--no more fore-legs-
everybody held their sides. Music, ac-
tors, pit, boxes and gallery rushed from
the theatre, shrieking between every
breath, Hare you seen the elephantt

Times has the following paragraphs.
which are deemed semi-officiaI:
A story circulated through tho
House to-day was, that the President
had pardoned the pirate Semmes.
This was circulated very industriously
by some of the leading radicals, for
the purpose Of proving how deeply
involved the President is with the
rebels. L have the best authority for
saying that tits utterly and totally
false. 1t is apure fabrication for DO
htical effect. Not only has there been
no thought Of pardoning him, but
the Cabinet to-day discussed the
question as to the proper form of tri-
bunal for trying him, and the Attor-
ney- General was called on for his
opinion on that point.
The still more preposterous rumor
was circulated by the same parties
that the President had sent for the
Senators and members from the
rebel States, assuring them that he is
now ready to maintain their claims to
seats. This is totally false, without 4
shadow of foundation in truth.
The Tribune OF to-day has a des-
patch saying that Secretary Seward
boasted to o Pennsylvania member
that he was the author of the Presi-
dents policy Of reconstruction. This
is fragrant and malicious perversion
OF conversation held by the Secre-
tary with Mr.. Scofeld, distorted and
circulated for political purposes.
These desperate reports on the part
Of the radicals indicate anything but
a confidence in the merits of their
cause. They will find all these false
hoods re-acting upon them with ter
rible effect.
