A Young Bergh Scalpcd by II LiOness.

From the New York Times, April 1871
An open cage in which were lion
and lioness, which formed portion of
circus procession in Baltimore on
Monday, became the center of attrac-
ton for a crowd of boys. One of them,
thinking perhaps, that as animals We're
small they could not be very vicious,
amused himself by poking stick
through the bar. Another boy, il is
stated, found considerable fun in spit
ting at the lion, while Others, emula-
ted by this action, made bets as to
which could spit in the lions eye.
Henry Hernning, small boy, was
coming from school, and seeing the
crowd, stopped. Noticing u boy nc.
quaintance in the crowd, he said,
Rocks, why don't you stop teasing the
lion, he may nurt you ?" With this,
according to Hernning's statement,
"Rocks" pushed Hernning toward the
gutter, saying: "What are you afraid
of? They won't hurt you"
As Hernning fell toward the cage
the lionness, thinking that her turn to
get satisfaction had arrived, promptly
went for Hernning's scalp. She thrust
out hel(kont paws, and grasping at the
forehe and back of the head, lifted
him f his feet in the attempt to get
him invher mouth. A cry of horror
went up from the bystanders, who
rushed to the rescue ofthe boy, but the
weight of his body when the lioness
lifted him from the ground caused the
skin to give way, and the claws of the
beast thus losing their hold, the boy fell
to the ground. He was picked up and
carried to a drug store near by, and
thence was taken to the office of DIR.
Thomas J. l.. Yeates, who dressed his
injuries. The skin was torn from the
forehead, and piece of the scalp re-
moved from the back of the head. The
boy suffered no permanent injury by
the mishap.

In some distJicts Of India !. is the
custom to hold what Is known rs u
DEVILS dance, when strings are passed
through the flesh of youngmen on both
sides Of the body. The dancers some
times die from their injuries. There
l. resemblance between this custom
and that of the Sioux Indians, who, ut
intervals, feusts and dances, In which
young men who aspire to be warriors
have strings Of buffalo hide passed
through the flesh on both sides of the
breast, the ends Of the strings beinga at
tached to II cross-pole, or TO buffalo
skulls. The woud-be braves must
dance without food or drink until the
flesh gives way, and they are liberated
from torture. The two customs may
have had the same origin,

What Single Ballot Accomplished.

In 1880, Dan Stone of Cincinnati was a
candidate for the State Legislature. Walk
ing up Main street on the morning of the
election, he overlook an acquaintance go
ing to the polls, who intended to vote the
opposition ticket. Stone solicited his vote.
1--WE are old friends, said he, "and know
you will show friend that mark of kind
ness" Party spirit WAS then comparatively
quiet. The voter replied, "Well Dan, you
are a pretty clever fellow; don't care ii /
do" The vote elected Stone, and gave a
majority of one in the Legislature, which
made Thos. Ewing United States Senator.
Mr.. Ewing's vote on the question of con-
frming Martin Van Duren Plenipotentiary
to Great Britain enabled the Vice President
to give the casting vote against it, and
called Mr.. Van Buren, first, Vice President,
and then President, and determined the
general political policy OF the country for
four years. One vote accomplished all this.

VICTOR HUGo has been writing in his
curiously unlimited vein. He has pre-
pared few pages called "Mes Fills" which
are to form preface to the works of his
two sons. This is the characteristic man
ner in which he speaks OF CHARLES HUGo's
translation of SHAEsPEARE: "To intro
duce Shakespeare into France, what vast
duty! He accepted it; he knew that his
life would be thenceforth bound by the
promise made in the name of France to the
great man Of England; he knew that that
great man was one Of the great men of hu-
man nature, and that to serve that glory
was to serve civilization itself; he knew
that such an undertaking was imperious;
that it would be exacting and lofty, and
that once commenced, it could be neither
interrupted nor abandoned; he knew that
it would take twelve years to do it; he
knew that his youth would be spent over
it; he knew that to accomplish such a Ia
| Dor he would have to cloister himself; he
consented, and MS he exiled himself for his
father, SO he imprisoned himself for Shak-
speare. He renewed the fearful nightly
combat Of Jacob; he fought with tho Arch.

lie or private school, at least twelve weeks

stead OF the attendance the child may be in
structed at home in the branches common
ly taught in the public school. II the per-
son having charge of such child neglect
his duty he will forfeit twenty dollars 10 the
school district. This penalty may be re-
covered in any court of competent jurisdic-
tion in the district. If the parent or guard

Prominent Republicans Of Massachusetts,
have organized the" Commonwealth Club. "
The preamble to the Constitution recites
that the members dissatisfied with the cor
ruption which now prevails in politics, and
convinced that this dissatisfaction is not
confined to any political party or section of
society, but is shared by all honest men
alike, agree to form an association, that
thereby better understanding will be pro-
moted among men who hold thess opinions,
and that an interest in all public measures
will be excited among those who now stand
Aloof through apathy and disgust. In so
doing they give no pledge, nor do they
abandon the organizations to which they
now belong, but say: ave know that
honesty and purity in public life are OF
equal importance to all parties, and that
nothing is more necessary than that private
citizens should take an active and intelli-
gent interest in public affairs" The Off
GERS of the Club are E. r. Hoar, President ;
Henry L. Pierce, Richard Olney, John O.
Adams, W. E. Perkins, Vice-Presidents.

The Continental Railroad .

The TilFin Tribune: Gen. Gibson re-
turned home Saturday after an absence OF
three weeks in New York city. His bust
ness there was in reference to the Continental
railroad generally, but more especially to
settle with the company for work he and
his contractors had done for the road. But
little can be said about the prospects of the
road. Parties in New York are actively
engaged in its behalf and it is hoped that
next year active work will be commenced.
New York is aroused on the cheap trans
portation question on account of the advant-
age that Baltimore with its B. 4 o. road
and Philadelphia with it's Pennsylvania
road have over il in freights, and see that
that city has got to have an air line double
track road to the west to enable it to hold
its place as the great commercial center OF
the United States--that is, to prevent the
cities spoken of from taking its trade in all
directions. New York will have road as
above mentioned, and the Continental is the
line that is the most feasible and the one
most talked of.
