SwINToN's HISTORY OF THE UNITED
STATES. s.--This history is in use III the
public schools of Richmond. A discussion
in regard to its merits was initiated in
city paper few days ago by Rev. j. Will
liam Jones, unreconstructed Confederate
soldier, which has been joined in by Mayor
Kelley, as president of the city school
board. 1t continues to be quite exciting to
those who affect controversial literature.
1t is now said that Swinton, who is by the
way Scotchman, was correspondent of
the New York Times, and not The Trib-
une, during the war; Once or twice he
was banlshed from the army of the Poto-
mac because he was called secesh cor
respondent, and is now professor in the
university of California. 1t is also stated
that MIR. Swinton's sympathies are and
have all been with the South. This is
worthy Of note.

Van Amburgh's Golden Me-
nagerie.
The exhibition of this diver
sifed, rare and extensive COL
lection of representatives OF
the animal kingdom attracted
large crowds to the entertain
ments. Arranged under tents
were twenty one animal cages
containing wild beast captured
IN Europe, Asia, africa and
South America and embracing
many which no other menage
rie in the United States pos
sesses. Among the rarest may
be mentioned the Two horned
rhinOceros, secured while quite
young about 1900 miles north
of Calcutta, Hindostan. o.
this species there are but two
on exhibition in the world
one in the eastern hemisphere
and the one exhibited in Van
Amburgh's mammoth estab
lishment. The two horned rhi-
noceros was the kind known to
the ancient Romans and differs
materially from the more com
mon single horned animal OF
the same name. In size and
habits and manner of feeding
there is a striking similarity,
but there is a great difference
in the appearance of the skin,
which on the two horned ami
NAL, instead of the vast and
regular marked armor like folds
OF the one horned, has merely
a slight wrinkle across the
shoulders and on the hinder
parts, with a few fainter wrin-
kles on the sides, so that in
comparison with the common
rhinoceros it appears almost
smooth. The skin, however, is
rough or tuberculated; but
what constitutes the specific or
principal distinction is that the
nose is furnished with two
horns, one of which is smaller

balloon as he is that he can
cross IN a steamer. During
August and september the

go very high and exhaust
much power. If they sail low
they will 90 nearly north. He

we can go to Europe we will

Ing will help TO unravel these
mysteries. If they do not get
1000 miles to sea or never come
back, science will be somewhat
aided by the trip. 1t is often
asked what are the plans of the
voyage? In general, they ex-

tween st. Petersburg and AT

help, they can cross in sixty
hours, ahead of cyclone. 1t
was in that way that he was
carried from St Louis to New
York. He crossed the lakes in

In that voyage, the day being

hung around the balloon at
night, which enabled them to
read their instruments. Large
balloons are much more agree
able than small ones. Cross

professor told an amusing story
in proof of this. He sailed up
from Allentown, Pennsylvania,
where a band was playing a

tune as he came down he sup.

town. He had landed in Berks
county, forty miles away among

playing the same tune. When
the Professor began hallooning
there were no gas works In this
country that would fill a bal

was given. In his last ascen-

three miles, and got into a
warm easterly current. The
air was so warm that he took
off his coat. This had not hap

tributed the warmth to a fog.
