THE Circus last Monday evening and
night was well attended notwithstand-
ing the very unfavorable weather, and
the performance was such as to merit
the liberal patronage they received.
Although the heavy rain had made the
ring very muddy and performers and
horses were laboring under many dis
advantages, we do not remember to
have seen better show since the war.
Among so many stars, it is hard to
make distinction; but the perfor-
mances of Mile Granville, the lady
with iron jaws, was truly wonderful,
and alone worth the price of admis-
sion. The Lee family received much
applause, while Happy Jack Lawton
kept the crowd in a good humor even
while they were being soaked with
rain. We hope the International will
visit us again.

Under the Snow.

1t is pleasant to think, just under the snow,
That stretches SO bleak and blank and cold,
Are beauty and warmth that we cannot know
Green fields and leaves and blossoms of gold.
Yes, under the frozen and dumb expanse,
Ungladdened by bee or bird or flower,
world where the leaping fountains glance,
And the buds expand is waiting its hour.
1t is hidden now; not a glmmer breaks
Through the hard blue ice and the sparkling drift
The world shrinks back from the downy flakes
Which out of the folds of the night cloud sift.
But as fair and real a world it is
AS any that rolls in the upper blue;
If you ait you viii hear its melodies,
And see the sparkle of frost and dew.
And often now, when the skies are wild,
And hoarse and sullen the night winds blow,
And la and hollows with drifts are piled,
l think of the vioets under the snow
look in the Wild flowers tremuous eye,
hear the chrp of the ground bird brown.
y breath from the budding grove steals by,
Andthe swallows are dipping above the town.
So there, from the outer sense concealed,
1t lies shut in by veil of snow,
But there TO the inward eve revealed
are bonghs that blossom and flowers that glow.
The lily shines on IS bending stem;
The crocus opens its April gold;
And the rose uptosses its dtadcm
Against the floor of the winter sold
And that other world, to my soul I say,
That yelled and my site world of the dead,
Is no further away on any day
Than the lilies just under he snow we tread

kind is rather rare in commerce, though SO
plentiful in the virgin forest Of the upper
Burrampooter districts the reason being
that no local sawmills have yet been start
ed, and the rapids are too heavy to raft
such fragile logs; indeed there are few
woods that can withstand the terrible
grinding forces of those vast cataracts,
which not only smash gigantic trees into
drift-wood, but more frequently impound
them forever in some unapproachable
cavern, beneath the waves. In the vicin-
ify Cf the great northeast rivers, the
Upper Burrampooter, the Debong and
Dehong (the latter supposed to be the
verltable Sampo of Tartary), the nomadic
tribes have long ago feled and cut out in

barter with strangers and frontier traders
in salt and cloth, their two chief desider-
alta.

Once some of these experts were granted

Once some Of these experts were granted
leaves of absence, without paw from the
government, for the purpose of restoring a
large quantity. of burnt money belonging
to Adams Express Company. This was
permitted partly because it was known
that there was no one else who could per-
form the service. without which the COM
pany would be subjected to great loss. but
principally because the company offered to
pay them much more for their time and
labor than they were receiving from the
government. and it was thought that their
long and faithful services justly entitled
them to this addition to their meager sal
aries. The money was taken from safes

five years at the bottom of the Mississippi,

damaged as to be absolutely worthless.

5ir. StiVers Horse.

The other morning at breakfast Mrs
Perkins observed that Mr.. Silver, in whose
house we live, had been called away, and
wanted to know if | would see to his horse
through the day.
| knew that Mr.. Silver owned horse,
because | occasionally saw him drive it out
of the yard, and | saw the stable every
day but what kind of horse it was [
didn't know. / never went into the stable
for two reasons: in the first place [ had
no desire to, and secondly, [ didn't know
as the horse cared particularly for COM
pany.

and had | been of a less hopeful nature,
the charge Mr. Silver had left with me
might have had very depressing effect
but | told Mrs Perkins | would do it.
You know how to take care of horse,
don't you p said she.
| gave her a reassuring wink. In fact
I knew so little about it, that L didn't
think it safe to converse more fluently than
by winks.
After breakfast seized toothpick and
walked out to the stable There was moth
ing particular to do, as Silver had given
him his break fast, and L found him eating
it, so | looked around. The horse looked
around, too; and stared pretty hard at me
There was but little said on either side

then sat down On a peck measure, and fell
to studying the beast. There is wide
difference in horses Some of them will
kick you over, and never look around to
see what becomes Of you. | don't like a
disposition like that, and L wondered II
Stiver's horse was one of them
When [ came home at noon went
straight to the stable. The animal was
there all right. Silver hadn't told me
what to give him for dinner, and L had no
given the subject any thought; but l wen

and sailed up to the manger. :, ,
When he saw the oats he almost smiled

But could think of only two ways to
dispose of the beast. | could either swal-
low him where he stood and then sit down
on him, or | could crawl inside ofihim
and kick him to death.
But | was saved either of these expe-
dients by his coming toward me so alb
ruptly that | dropped the rope in terror !;
and then he turned about, and, kicking me
full of mud, shot for the gates, ripping the
clothes line in two, and went off down the
streets at horrible gallop, with two of
Mrs. Perkins garments, which he hastily
snatched from the line, floating over mis-
neck in very picturesque manner.
So was atterward told, as | was too
full of mud myself to see the way into the

BURNT GREENBAcKs-The Identification
and restoration of notes which have been
burnt is difficult and interesting opera
tioD. Every one has observed that a
printed paper after having been burnt, if
not subjected to strong draft or roughly
handled, retains its original form, and that
the printing is distinct and egibe, and
appears as if it had been raised or embos-
sed ou the paper, but that if it is touched
never SO gently, it crumbles into dust.
Notes in this condition are frequently re-
ceived at the Department for redemption.
The counter subjects each note and frag
ment Of a note to a careful inspection in a
strong light, under powerful glass, until
she determines the denomination and issue,
and then pastes it upon a piece of thin,
tough paper in order that it may be safely
handled. But this pasting, by destroying
the raised or embossed appearance, at
once and forever precludes all chance of
again identifying the kind or denomination
of the note. Henceforth it is but plain,
black piece of paper, giving no indication
that it ever represented money. 1t is
therefore very necessary that the counter
should be quite sure that her judgment is
correct before the note is pasted upon the
paper. She must also,-a most difficult
task-determine whether the pote is gen.
uine or counterfeit. And yet counterfets
are discovered by these experts among the
charred remains of notes with almost as
much certainty as among perfect notes.
Charred notes Of national banks have
occasionally come into the possession of
the Department, and have been restored in
this m nner and returned for redemption
to the banks which issued them, accom-
panied by the afidavits of the counter
that they were the remains of notes of the
banks to which they were returned. In
most cases they were promptly and cheer
fully redeemed. But occasionally surly
bank officer, unable or unwilling to trace
any resemblance to bank notes, OF at least
to the notes of his bank. in the plain
black pieces of paper returned to him, and
Influenced perhaps by desire to effect
little saving for the stockholders, refused
to redeem and challenged the Department
to the proof. All positive ocular proof
having been destroyed when the notes
we're restorediand pasted, the Department
was compelled to submit to the loss,
