The Teaching Of Animals.

Long years before the American Rarcy'f
name was heard as horse tanner, secret
existed as family heirloom. among set OF
the O'Sullirans. in the south OF Ireland.
This family was known as "Thc WhIspcrcrs,
and they possessed the power of rendering as
quiet as a lamb the most Stubborn and un-
manageable horse that ever existed. Wheth-
er they did any thing more to the horse than
to breathe into his nostrls, we kIow not;
but by doing this and by kind soothing. and
other ways known to themselves, they effect
ed their purpose an retained their fame

Chicago Relief and Recuperation.

A detailed examination by wards of the

tion of thoc where the houses were wholly
DESTROYED to have been g., ,9O2. III, wards
partly burned over contained population OF
81 2.3SS; total, 1iG, 200 persons. Cpon this
showing it is thought that an estimate OF
l25 900 persons left shel;crlcss is not too
high. these also lost their furniture, store
of provisions. clothing, and. in short every
thing. Dividing the number 123, 900 by
five should give Approximately the number
Of separate families made homeless--cqual to
25,00O The total amount Of rcNeF con-
tributcd from all sources is set down IN
value at ST, 900 900. This divided By the
number Of families burnt out will give the
equivalent Of $500 to each family. This
amount of relief judiciously administered
will 90 far tomitigate the inevitable suffering
of the coming rig ,rous season. The city has

CLOSE QuARTERs-A Michigan man
who WAS Recently buried in n,reA thiTtyfc
from the surface Of the ground, by its cav
ing in on nim, was rescued after rinearly c glt
hours of torture He attributes his escape
to three large stones which lodged over his
head and prevented large amount of dirt
and stanes from falling upon and suffocating
him. lie experienced no difficulty in breath
ing. but suffered greatly from the cold. His
legs were wedycd in with stone, and he
found himself unable to move. He heard
plainly parsons at work above and their con-
versation; how the news should be forward
ed to his friends. and even what arrange
ments should be made for lis funeral: The
crying of women and children and the fears
expressed were distinctly heard, yet lie was
unable to attract the attention Of his rescu
crs. He suffered the keenest mental tor
ture, fearing that when the workmen ap-
preached him the earth and stones would DC
loused and precipitatcd upon him.

The Flight of Bullock.

Rufus B. Bullock, who has been, for three
years past, filling the Executive CHAIR OF
this State, has resigned; and Benjamin Con-
ley has assumed the role of Governor by vlr-
tue of his position as president of the Senate
The immediate cause or causes which have
Influenced Bullock to resi- ign are not stated
The almost immediate assemblage of the Le-
gislature, composed, as it is, of large ma
jority of honest, upright men, who are de.
termincd to have thorough ventilation and
exposure of the monstrot,s yillaiuics; OF Bull
Ii ck's administration, has no doubt been the
controlling cause which has produced this
sudden but not altogether unexpected reslSna-
ton. The recent failure Of kimball has, no
doubt, p p'ccipitsted this gratifying action on
the part of Bullock. 1t has been suspected
for some days past that bonds of the State
were issued and paid to Kimball largely in
excess Of the amount authorized by law. In
deed, this fraudulent issue Of bonds has
been, within the last few days, virtually ad-
mittsd by Bulock's political friends, and the
disclosure of this monstrous fraud, i'll all its
vilkinous dcformity, was sure to have been
made in a few days. We thought last week,
when Bullock left the State so suddenly and
under the shallow .pretexts which were given
My his friends, that he would not return.
