The Steed ssNIark TWAIN" Rode In
the Holy Land.

The Steed ssNIark Twain Rode In
the Holy Land.
In a late letter of "Mark Twain" to
the Azta- California, occurs the following
description Of his Arabian steed named
81 Jerico :" -----
While I am speaking of animals I will
mention that have got horse by the
name of "Jerico." He is mare. 1
have seen remarkable horses before, but
none so remarkable as this. / wanted
horse that could shy, and this one fills
the bill. had ali idea that sliying in
dicated spirit. If ! was correct have
got the most spirited horse on earth.
He SHES at everything he comes across,
with the utmost impartiality. He ap-
pears to have mortal dread of telegraph
poles especially; and it is fortunate that
these are on both sides of the road, be-
cause as it is now / never fall off twice
on the same side. If / fell on the same
side always it would get to be monoto-
nous after a while. This creature has
got scared at everything he has seen to-
day, except hay-wagon. He walked
up to that with an intrepidity and reck-
lessness that were astonishing. And it
would fill any one with admiration, to
see how he preserves his self-possession
in the presence Of a barley sack. This
daredevil bravery will be the death of
this horse some day. .-s az
T. He is not particularly fast, but /
think he will get me through the Holy
Land. He has only one fault: his tail
has been chopped off or driven up, and
he has to fight the flies with his heels.
This is all very well, but when he tries
to kick fly off the top of his head with
his hind foot, it is too much variety
He is going to get himself into trouble
that way some day. He reaches around
and bites my legs, too. l don't care
particularly about that, but I don't like
to see horse too sociable.
I think the owner of this prize had
a wrong opinion about him. He had an
idea that he was one of those fiery un-
tanned steeds, but he is not of exactly
that character. I know the Arab has
this idea, because when he brought the
horse to me for inspection in Beirout, he
kept jerking the bride and shouting in
Arabic, "Ho2 will you? Do you want
to run away, you ferocious beast, and
break your neck r. when all the time he
was not doing any thing in the world,
and only looked like he wanted to lean
up against something and think. When
ever he is not shying at things, or reach
ing after fly, he wants to do that yet
How it would surprise his owner to
know this. 80

THE CROW.

Next to the monkey, the crow has the
most deviltry to spare. They are born
very wild, but kan be tanned az easy az
the goat kan, but tame crow il aktual-
ly wuss than sore thumb.
If thare iz emmy thing about the house
that they kant git into, it IL becauze the
thing amt big enuf. had rather watch
a distrikt skool than one tame crow.
Crows live on what they kan steal,: and
they will steal emmy thing that amt tied
down.
They are fond ov meat vittles, and are
the first tew hold an inquest over de-
parted horse, or still sheep. They
are fine bird ;ew hunt, but a hard one
to kill; they kan see you miles first,
and will smell gun right through the
side ov mountain.
They are not songstirs, altho they
hav good voice to cultivate, but what
they do sing, they seem to understand
thoroughly; long praktiss has made
them perfekt.
The crow is tuff bird, and kan stand
the heat like "a blacksmith, and the cold
| like stun wall.
They bid their nest among a tree,
and lay twice. and both eggs would
hatch out if they waz laid in snow
bank,-there aint no such thing az stop
ping young crow.
Crows are very lengthy, i beleave
they live always, never knu one to die
a natral deth, and don't beleave they
kno how. eGe ZEzs4AAst
They are alwus thin in flesh, and are
like an injun rubber shew, poor inside
and out.
They are not considered fine eating,
altho have read somewhere ov billed
crow, but still never heard .oy the same
man, hankering for sum billed crow
times.
This essa on the crow is copied from
natur, and if it IL true, amt tew blame
for it, natur made the crow, didn't, il
i had would hav made her more honest
and not quite so tuff.
