The following curious story Of a
lottery ticket comes from Vienna:
In 1857 an army physician bought
a lottery ticket which was subse-
quently stolen from him. The
loss was Immediately made known at
the lottery Office, and the ticket
was retired for the prescribed
period. A few days ago this time
expired, the number was drawn,
and, strange to say, drew the prize
of 100000 forms. The physician
came for his money, and at the same
time the original ticket was present
ed by another man. He declared
that he had bought it from a GER
tain banker in Vienna, q statement
which was soon verified. The bank
er said that he had bought the
ticket in 1870 from the we'll known
banker Schnapper, in Vienna. This
was found to be correct, and they
declared that it had been purchased
in 1853 from q woman, together
with nine other lottery tickets.
The woman g name is not known.
It would seem that the declaration
of theft having been immediately
made by the army doctor he should
have the money; but the holder Of
the original ticket has sued for il
on the ground that he bought the
ticket in good faith, and this inter
esting question has to be decided
by the slow process Of the law.

The account of the last engage
ment between the British troo es
and the Ashantees, received at
London from Cape Coast Castle,
is by no means reassuring. Though
the savages were finally beaten of,
they fought stubbornly for two
hours. Considering the fact that
the Ashantees We're the assailants,
and that,if they were beaten off, the
English themselves soon afterward
abandoned the field of battle with
five officers killed, the victory must
have been very barren one. Many
such victories viii speedily reduce
the handful of Europeans who have
been sent to the gold coast to con.
front an army of about two hun.
dred thousand men of the bravest
tribe in Africa.

The London temperance societies
are preparing petitions to present to
Parliament at the next session, pray
ing that licensed inn-keepers may be
compelled to supply customers with
tea and coffee when required, the
ground taken being that many persons
take intoxicating liquors when they
would prefer less harmful beverages.
There are numbers of coffee houses
in London, but sg general thing the
tea and coffee sold are so poor, accord
ing to the advocats Of this movemen.
that there are few who will drink
them, while ON the other hand, when
inn keepers have tea and coffeef for
sale they are uniformly of good quail
ity. Then, the coffee houses are not
to be found except on main streets, the
inns abounding in the by-wSys.

A BED COMFORT.-T want to tell
you about a bed comfort we sleep
under-the prettiest, warmest thing /
ever saw in my life. 1t was made of
white cotton flannel and knotted with
blue Bertin wool of a delicate shade.
The contrast between the soft white
plush Of the flannel and the fleecy tas-
sells Of wool was exquisit The under
side OF the comfort was first put in
frames, feecy part down. Eve or six
pounds of batting evenly laid on it, a
thin covering spread over that, and
the whole quilted or knotted with
white thread to keep the cotton in
place. then the upper covering was the
blue tassels tied in. This has been
made for several years, but was not in
the least soiled; and with a single
blanket was an ample covering, though
there were three foot of snow on the
ground, and the mercury was below
twenty degrees. In summer it if fold
ed in a sheet and laid carefully away.

President MacMahon is out with

President MacMahon is out with
another message. He asks the
Assembly to prolong his executive
powers for seven years, but desires
this to be done before the constitu-
tional bills which are to settle the
future institutions Of France are act
ed upon The meaning of the mes
sageis simply arequest to establish
military dictatorship that will en-
able the Monarchists to continue
their plots against the republic.
The Committee on Prolongation,
to whom this proposition was sub
mitted, have very properly declined
10 make any concession on the lat
ter point, though they consented
to the seven years.

past whose existence has been dis.
closed by the present survey are q
series of horned species related
to the rhinoceros, but posses
sing some features in which, accord.
ing to Professor Cope, they resem-
bled the elephant. They stood high
on the legs and had short feet, but
possessed osseous horns in pairs on
different parts of the head One of
tae largest species had a huge horn
over tile eye, while another had one
on each side of the nose, and more
than q foot in length, resembling
on the back part of the head the or,
etc. A third one of larger size
than the last had rndimental horns
on the nose. Still another was
about as large as the elephant. Its
cheek bones were enormously ex-
banded, and it's horns were fat.
j. fifth species had triangular
horns, turned outward. The first
mentioned srecies has been named
by Professor Cope miobasileus
ophryas, and the others have been
placed in new genus. It is claim
ed by Professor Cope that their
structure disproves entirely the
statement of a recent writer. that
the presence of horns in pairs is an
indication of relationship to the
ruminating animals (oxen etc. for
these beasts are quite near the rhi-
| noceros.
Carnivorous species were not rare
in this ancient family, and served
now to prevent the too rapid ins
crease. Of the fourteen species
known there we're tiger cats, dogs,
hy@nodors, and the tomaretos,
new genus found by Professor Cope.
This resembles dog, and was as
large as a black bear, but was much
more carniyorous in its propensi-
ties; hy@nodons were as large and
had many flesh teeth, while some of
the cats had remarkably long ca
nine or eye teeth In new species,
the size of the panther, these teeth
greatly resembled those of shark.
All of these curious, extinct
forms of life will be carefully de-
scribed for the Seventh Annual
Report of the Geological Survey of
the Territories under the Depart.
ment of the Interior, and in the
quarto series full illustrations will
be made of all the new species
Professor Cope has already opened
from the ancient sea and lake de-
posits of Kansas, Colorado, Wyo-
ming and Idaho, about three hun
dred species of vertebrate animals,
of which he has made known to
science for the first time of about
two hundred. The history of the
succession of life on this continent.
as well as that of other regions Of
the earth, will be made much clear
er by these important discoveries,
and the vast number of missing
links in the mysterious chain of life
which are thus supplied, throws a
food Of light on the theory of evo-
. lGtion which is now attracting the
favorable attention of the best sci
entifc minds in all sections of the
world These discoveries have q
special interest also with refer ence
to tho history Of the origin of the
human species.
The above account presents to
the reader only mere glimpse of
the valuable results of the past sea-
sons labors.
