in the Foster neighborhood, was entirely

all were temporarily absent from the
house. All the doors and windows of the
house were shut. and when the people
broke them open. they found every room
so densely filled with fire and smoke, that
it was impossible to save anything. The

Seeing the Elephant.

We copy the following item from the New
York Sunday Times-it appears in the London
correspondence Of that journal:
"You have published two theories accounting
for the origin of the phrase Seeing the Elephant
neither of which think is correct; let me give
the true one. Many years ago play was pro-
dueed in Philadelphia in which an elephant ac.

erie in the city, imitation brute was construc.

ceive any one not in the secret. Locomotion
was furnished by couple of fellows inside, who,
being OF a thirsty nature, carried their ratons,
for convenience sake in separate bottles. The
play was success, and upon the last night of
its performance the theatre was crowded
from pit to gallery, attracted by the extra
ordinary antics OF the wonderful elephant

countenances, wondering at the calamity they
had occasioned. For moment dismay kept the
audience silent, but when the huge Joke was fully
comprehended, such roar went up as was sci.
dom heard within the walls of theatre. There
was no further performance that evening, and
the audience dispersed in'uproarious confusion
