"Bulling', a Diplomat.

An 1rviugton gentleman, who is withal
something oil diplomatist, says the Newark
Advertiser, had occasion, an evening or two
since, to cross field occupied by fine, high
spirited male COW. Rightly inferring that
any intrusion upon the premises would be
reserted by tie occupant, the gentleman
leaned upon the fence and planned a ma
neuvre. His method consisted of an ad-
vance into the field; pursuit and partial
retreat until the bull should gain considerable
headway; sudden step to one side, leaving
the bull in the lurch, aud finally, a successful
run across the lot before the asst )nished pur-
suer could recover himself. 1t was an ad-
mirably conceived thing. OF course the bull
went for the gentleman. Then came a par
tal retreat, as regular "a clock WORK; then
the calculation of distance previous to the
step aside. just at this point the bull under
took to alter the programme, and got the
whole thing mixed up fearfully. Instead of
behaving as though he entertained some re-
gard for diplomacy and order and clothes, he
seemed to think the main object in life was
to toss gentlemen as far and high and vigor.
ously. and with as much display and as little
tenderness as if the salvation of the whole
bovine race depended upon his individual
efforts. The gentl man descended into the
adjoining field with conviction that states
manship is thrown away on bulls, and pref
udice complimentary to the efficacy OF shot
guns in some particularly instances.

An Arithmetical Marvel.

The Hebrew educational society school in
this city, has been the scene of a very rare,
if not wholly unexampled, performance in
arithmetic. The pr ,blem was to multiply
nine by nine, ,and eighty-one by eighty -one, and
so on, using each succeeding product as its
own multplier, until the operation should be
performed nine times. How stupendous and
discouraging the work becomes after few
steps are taken IN the process, any one will
find who makes the trial. orseveral years a
handsome premium has been offered by the
patron of the school just named for the pupil
who should first succeed in accomplishing this
feat of multiplication At last the task was
completed, and the prize. splendid silk dre's
won by Miss Sallie Z. Solomon, after apatient
labor of three months. The work comprises
262 pumeral compounds and 10000 figures,
and the whole covers four or five square
yards OF paper. 1t is deserving OF remark in
this connection, that the boys have made less
progress and shown less perseverance in
working at this problem than the girls.
How WINCHESTER WAS WoN.-General
Sheridan has recently ayowed, in an attrac-
tive little speech at indianapolis, that he
gained the battle of Winchester "almost en-
tirely'' in consequence of information fur
nlshed by the "Union' young lady, Miss
Wright, of Winchester. His great difficulty
was 10 communicate with her. Finally he
wrote her letter on tissue paper, which he
rolled and compressed to the size of his
thumb end, and then enveloped 1t in tin-toll.
This weighty package was then consigned to
the capacious mouth of colossal African,
vino had confederate pass to sell vegetables
in Winchester. He delivered the message
and returned with the answer, rolled IN the
the same tin-foil, within two days. 'She was
a nice girl and true as STEEL" said the Lieut.
mt General the other day, and he fought
the battle oy her reply and won it. Miss
