Cats.

The loeaF editor Of the Buffalo.
Commercial makes an estimate of
number Of cats IN that city.
He says that. on four streets he.
wass passing through the other

presuming this a fair average there
are about 4, |, 900 cats in Buffalo 80.
his same snpmerator Of cats
goes on to say; Now q cat that
is at all heavy viii weigh four
pounds, which would make the ag-
egate one hundred and eighty
four thousand ana four-hundred
sounds ofscatt, N4en this cat is
MANUFACTURED into sausages, allow
ing for the addition of seasoning
and SO forth, twill yield, say two
hundred thousand pounds. Good
p gqtI orth sIaerlcan Sausages
worth 16 cents per pound.
ON this we find that in the sim
pie article Of cat saugages alone,
the city of Buffalo does a business
: .of So, 900. The manufacture of
ver. blood. and other sausa-
YBieh is here carried on to a
Co crable extent; we have not.
taken into account. Had wed0ne
80, the grand total would doubtless
have been much larger, Enough
bas been given TO show that one

An Indian Dog Feast.

The correspondent of the ST. Louis Democrat
was one of the invited guests at dog feast Civ
en- by the Indian chief Sp0Sed Tail He thus
describes the symposium: LAS the occasion
was one which promised novelty, we readily ac-
cepted. On our arrival we found the supplies
of the Indian delicacies commensurate with the
quality of the guests. The cooking was simple
enough. without salt or condiment. We all
! squatted ourselves on the ground, and the old
and young squaws acted as servitors for the oc-
casion. Before proceeding, the great calumet
of peace was passed around. Whenever this
calumet is brought forth, it is token of great
respect, adorned as it is with brass stacks, blue
and golden feathers, beads of coral, and carved
in the most unique manner. After the pipe had
been passed around the circle, the chief commen-
ced the feast by eating, regardless of any of US.
There were all kinds of wild meat spread out
and the most delicious of them all was the dog
meat. In huge dishes of wood might be seen
a juicy lump of buffalo, hind quarter of an
antelope, elk meat, venison wild ducks, geese
and turkeys, surrounded by dishes of wild beans
Indian corn, wild rice and some strange herbs
which appeared to be very palatable. These
various vegetables were boiled separately, with
a sprinking of buffalo grease, giving the whole
an extremely unctious yet savory appearance.
In the centre of the circle were two dogs, of
dropsical appearance, the hair merely cut close
and roasted entire intestines and all. Over this
excellent, delicate food was poured gravy
dogs grease. This exquisite dripping had been
collected in bone dishes. The dogs appeared
plump and young, and all appeared to pay
pecal attention to the two young pups, which
were to them what dessert is to the civilized
whites For the sake of appearing satisfied with
our surroundings, we partook of a very small
piece, merely out of curiosity and could we but
conquer our prejudices we might have made a
very hearty meal; as it was we were satisfied.
The meat appeared to be of a brownish color,
somewhat resembling porpose meat. If we
might judge by the oily streaks about the
pacous mouths Of the chiefs, and the pleasure
which sparkled in their eyes, we would pronounce
dog meat delicious. After the feast was over
there were three canine skeletons left on their
respective Dishes forlorn looking remnants Of
dogs that once barked. Tomahawks, answering
the purpose of pipes, as well as instruments Of
bloody deeds, were handen to u.s. and as this
was an important epoch in Spotted Tails lfe he
caused them to be filled with the leaf nocotianna
quadrivalvis. Generally, the tobacco they use
is composed of the sakakorni plant (arbitus
ovaursi) or knnikinnick species of wellow bark.
Till late hour we smoked tomahawk that
was once stepped in CORY brains, and under the
soothing influence of the tobacco we wove bright
Indian legends.

The Eternal Word.

No fragment of an army ever survived so many
battles as the Bible; no citadel ever withstood
so many sleges; no rock was ever battered by SO
many hurricanes and SO swept by storms And
yet 1t stands. 1t has seen the rise and downfall
OF Daniels four empires. Assyria bequeaths a
few mutllated figures to the riches of our Ma
tional Museum. Media and Persia, like Bady-
lon, which they conquered have been weighed
IN the balance and long ago found wanting.
Greece family survives in its historic time: Tis
living Greece no more;" and the iron Rome of
the Caesars is held in precarious occupation by
feeble hand. And yet the Book that foretells
all this survives. While nations, kings, philos-
ophers, systems, institutions, have died away
the Bible now engages mems deepest thoughts
is examined by the keenest mteects, stands
reyered before the highest tribunals, is more
read and sifted, and debated, more devotedly
loved, and more vehemently assailed, more de-
Tended and more denied, more industriously
translated and freely given to the world, more
honored and abused than any book the world
ever saw. 1t survives all changes, itself un-
changed; it sees all things decay, itself incorrup-
tlbe; it sees myriads of other books engulfed in
the stream of time, yet it is borne along trium-
phantly on the wave; and will be borne along,
till the mystic angel shall plant his foot upon the
sea, and swear by him that liveth forever and
ever, that time, shall be no longer. For all
flesh is as grass, and all the glory of many the
flower Of grass. The grass withereth and the
flower thereof faleth away; but the W ord of the
Lord endureth forever"

KINDNESS CoNoUERs.-The superintendent
of Home for Orphan Children found one OF
them so wild and unmanagable that he was for
ced to resort to severe measures to keep him
within proper bounds One day he was brought
up for some misdemeanor, and as usual iogging
was the only alternative. 1t SO happened that
the superintendents little daughter was by, and
as she saw the little lad brought forward, and
heard the ofense named, her heart was touched
with pity; slipping her hand into her fathers,
she said
He looks sorry, papa; please forgive him and
he won't do so again"
He reflected moment, and then calling the
boy to him and asked him what he had to say in
vindication of his conduct.
Nothing, sir, only am sorry for what have
done"
Turning kind and pitifnl look on the boy.
he said
This little girl says if we forgive you this
time you will not do it again"
Tears started into the boys eyes as he said
gently
"kndshe is right, sir Il never will do it again"
And from that hour, as the officer afterwards
said, he was like new boy. Kindness breaks
when harshness cannot bend. Mercy and for
giveness are not unfrequently the best reformers.
