THE TRADE IN WILD BEASTS.

An article in the New York Times gives
some very curious facts respecting the "wild
beast trade" in the United States. One man
in that city monopolizes the entire business
He imports on order every variety of wild
beast and bird, from an elephant to guinea
pig, from an ostrich to Java sparrow. Does
the proprietor of menagerie lose his elephant
he repairs to this gentleman 'srepository. He
states whether he would prefer an African or
an Asiatic elephant. He gives his order ac-
cording to his fancy, and in due time the ami
NAL arrives and is Immediately shipped to
where his new owners caravan may happen
to be. If an African lion is wanted, a des-
patch is at once sent to Cape Town IF horned
horses, girafes or rhinoceroses are in demand,
orders are at once sent out to ship to New
York all that can be bought or found.
He employs fifteen men in Asia and Africa
to be on the lookout, and catch for him what
ever is wanted. AS there are more than thir-
ty menageries travelling over the country, each
of which loses certain per centage OF anil
mails each year, this gentleman has business
enough and is enabled to realize good prices
His sales, it is said, average over SlOO, ,000 a
year. W. are Iulu IufsI, 90 q Sohet'A o.AAA6'
animals are captured when young, by, the ma
tives, acting under instructions from the white
agents. If lions are wanted, the natives sally
up the country and either kill the parents and
then secure the cubs, or track the lioness to
her den, and then, waiting till she goes tor
food, seize the opportunity of taking the
cubs.
In capturing elephants, they drive them,
old and young, in an enclosure, hamstrlng
the old ones, 80 as to disable them from pro-
tecting their calves, and then easily secure
the young ones. -,
An African lion commands a higher price
in the market than an Asiatic lion, on &C.
count of his more noble and commanding ap..
pearance. His name is much thicker and
longer than that of his Asiatic brother, and
is black. The quantity and height Of the
name is the test of the value of lions An
African lion sells for $4,000; an Asiatic one
only $4,000. The same with tigers. Royal
Bengal tigers will command $4,000 a pair.
Camels and dromedaries bring about Sl.Zoo
apiece, but camels have been sold at $2,oO0.
A good ostrich can be bought for about s4oo
elephants from $4,000 to $4,000; horned
horses, though they are really only variety
of the antelope, from 81 800 upwards.
A very fair menagerie may be stocked tor
$4,000; but some few Of the giant shows
value their stock of animals at two or three
times that figure. The aggregate value OF
all the wild animals in the different caravans
in this country must approximate s,2,5oO,Ooo.
In no other country in the world are there so
many kept in confinement.

THE EFFECTS OF THE GOSPEL.

|
Few persons take a comprehensive view
of the gospel of Jesus Christ. The effects of
this and that invention are lauded and ex-
tolled but rarely is it estimated what the
world owes to the gospel. The discovery of
the magnetic needle, the invention of gun
powder, the application of steam in the arts,
and the various and wonderful uses which
are made of electricity, have, it is said, revo-
lutionized the world. This we will not con-
tradict but great as have been the effect of
these discoveries and inventions, the effects of
the gospel of Jesus Christ have been, we may
safely say, infinitely greater. Many seem to
think that all the effects Of the gospel have
reference to the soul of man and not to his
body. 1t would seem that large number Of

world. They act as if they thought that
Christ came into this world and accomplished
work, all the benefits of which will be expe-

contracted view of the mission of our Saviour's
work. Christ came into this world to save
sinners in every respect that the sinner needs
salvation. The sinner is contemplated by the
gospel as a creature of time dwelling here on
the earth, and as an immortal being destined
to live in another state of existence forever.
The object of the gospel is to ransom man 80

Christ came into this world to restore to
man what he lost by the fall. Sin affects the

that the actual results of the gospel are peace
and harmony. Prosperity follows the gospel
of Jesus Christ as the effect follows the cause.

comfortable people on the globe are Christian
people. The conversion of the heather to
christianity would be an inestimable blessing
to the world in pecuniary aspect.

A GRATEFUL ED1roR.-The editor of the
Philadelphia Dispatch has been made the
happy recipient Of some interesting reading
matter, and he very properly expresses his
thanks thusly:
"We owe our thanks to Judge Kelly fol
the latest Patent Office report. We already
have sixteen hundred of these interesting vol.
umes in our little library, but they have been
read and re,read so many times that we know
every page of them by heart. This new vol.

Christmas morning, and that night we gath.

it through to them. The affecting tale enti,

During the reading of the piteous narrative
entitled the Gum Washers for Carriage
Axles,' the whole family gave expression to
the boisterous emotion, and the hired girl was
so much excited that she lost her presence of

midnight intoxicated. We can never sufi-

that evening will linger in our minds very
