From Dom Piatt's curious article in
Lippincott's Magazine, about Hogs,
we take the following original hog story
once witnessed fight between a
! pony and boar. in which both sides ex
| hibited good deal of that natural art of
war to which Mr.. Corwin referred as
blessing the many militia colonies Of
Congress / had ridden home one al
ternoon upon my little sturdy Tough
Dick, and, turning him loose in the STA
Bile lot. poured upon the ground a guam
tty Of corn to serve him as a dinner
Upon this, huge boar, nearly as large
and quite as heavy az the pony, trotted
up, unbidden, to take part in the repast.
Tough Dick, mo- liking the company nor
the loss of his provender, bit the hog,
who in return threw up his tusk ca CHI
ing the pony's nostril upon the sharp
point and inflicting an ugly little wound.
Quick as thought almost the pon,
wheeled and planted his Two iropea
heels upon the boar's side. The blow
the hog over Nothing daunt:d he re-
gained his legs. and again made at the
little horse The plucky creature wss
ready for him, and again sent the hog
rolling This second charge seemed to
give the boar realizing sense of the in
equality Of such n contest. Regaining
his feet again be trotted some PAGES
away, and stood contemplating his fee
from under his long ears, granting and
swapping his jaws in wrath and disgust.
Tough Dick, with his ears drawn back,
eyed his antagonist as if expecting a
renewal of the conflict.
After some seconds the boar began
walking in a circle about the pony. He
kept beyond the reach of his heels, and
would at times walk and at times trot;
and while Tough Dick kept his eyes on
and his heels toward the foe. This cor
tinued for some time and might have
ended in the hogs retreat, but the pony
was hungry and aggravated at the inter
ruption to his meal. In an unhappy
moment he attempted to take mouth
full of corn. The boar, Selling the adj
vantage, rushed in. Escaping the heels
he charged in under the belly of the po-
nv, and would have inflicted an ugly
wound with his tusks, but the force of
his attack carried him beyond the point
of danger, and before he could escape
the wicked pony had him by the ear
precisely as dog would have caught
him.
The pig squealed dismally, and began
turning, SO as to bring his tusks under
the throat or jaw of his enemy. Slowly
but steadily he swung around, suffering
intense torture in the twisting given by
his unhappy ear. Finding the boar like
ly to gain his point the pony suddenly
released him. The Two had been pulling
with their wei hit against each other, and
the unexpected release staggered the
hog. and ere he could recover a we'll
directed kick rolled him over. I thoughG
the animal killed; but he slowly recov-
cred, and rising to his feet, staggered
away, pansing at times and shaking his
ugly head, as if wondering how it all
came about.

these lands shall be sold only to settlers

sioner of the General Land Office reports
in his last report, which is on the desks
of Senators, one hundred and twenty
four million acres, nearly as much land
as there is in the States of Ohio, Indian,
Illinois, Wisconsin,, and Michigan Five
times as much land as there is in the State
of Ohio, has already been granted to
four railroad corporations. In addition
to that, fiity-eight million acres have
been granted to other railroad corpora

grant in 1864 OF the right of way 400
feet wide. and ground for all stations
and other railroad uses, and the right to
take materials from United States lands

in a belt so miles wide, wherever it
chooses to run or to branch to, making
25,6OO acres per mile in a country the
easiest in the world to build railroad,

To make up deficiencies, the bill pro-
posed to authorize the company to select
alternate sections in an additional belt OF
10 miles. And the bill authorizes the
company to mortgage these lands and
the road before spade is stuck. We
suppose the bill will go through. The
great grant was made in 1864. Con-
gress might avail itself of the applica-
ton for an increase to put some restric-
tions on the whole, but the Senate
showed marked indisposition to do
