A CAMEL STORY.

That some animals are very mind
full of nm injury and eager for revenge,
no matter how long delayed, there is
ample proof. All our young readers
remember the story of the elephant
who took the tailor's slight to heart
and gave that gentleman u thorough
drcnching; and you may also rcmem-
Der numberless stories of how the
same mwieldy beasts remembered in
juries for years and waited for q
chance to vent their spite. But one of
the most remarkable cases on record
is this one, which we Gull from the
columns Of a literary journal;
"a year or two ago il ehanced that
a valuable camel, working in the oil
mill, was severely beaten by its driv-
er, who, perceiving that the camel had
treasured up the injury, and was only
waiting favorable opportunity for re
vengc, kept strict watch on the ami
NAL. Time passed on. The camel
percciving that II was wntched, was
quiet and obedient and the driver
began to think that the beating was
forgotten. when one night, after the
lapse OF several months, the men, who
slept on the platform near the
mill, whilst, as is customary, the camel
was stalled in corner, happening TO
remain awake, observed by the moon
light, that all was quiet, the animal
looked cautiously around, rose softly,
and stealing towards a spot where u
bundle of clothes and bernousc,
thrown carelessly on the ground, re-
scmbled sleeping figure, cast itself
violently upon them, rolling with all
its weight, and tearing them most vi
ciously with its teeth. Satisfied that
its vengeance was complete, the camel
was returning to its corner when the
driver sat up and spoke At the sound
of his voice, and perceiving the mis-
take he had made, the animal was so
mortified at the failure and discovery
Of his scheme, that II dashed It's head
against the wall, and died on the spot
Such is the story as related by the
dragoman."

.PARTRIDGE's MISTAKE

4 j have before mentioned tho fact
that tits common practice in Phila-
delphia 10 build thirty or forty houses,
all precisely alike, in n row, 80 that a
man who lives in the middle has to be
gin at the corner and count in order
10 roach his residence. My friend
Partridge who occupies one of these
houses, has been spending the summer
in the country, his residence being
closed in the meantime. A few nights
ago he happened TO he in town, and,
passing by his dwelling, he saw lights
IN the second story. Heknew at once
that burglars were engaged in routing
out his valuables, and instantly flew to
the police station and obtained u squad
of policemen TO capture them. Two
officers were sent around into the
back yard, and the other pried open
the front window shutter, and togeth-
cr with Partridge entered the parior
softly with the intention TO surprise
the burglars. The parlor and hail
were dark, and the squad proceeded
quietly up stairs, feeling that they had
everything in their own hands. Just
as they reached the nrst landing, they
met one of the burglars coming down
in the darkness. They grabbed him,
and as he yelled good deal they
knocked him ON the head q few times,
and after manacling him, laid him out
in the entry. Proceeding TO the front
room, they broke the door open, aud
found nobody there but q woman who
was half scared to death. The OIL
GERS were about 90 seize her, when
Partridge came in, and recognized her
as Mrs, Kellogg, the wife Of the man
wholivedt two doors below him. In fact
Il was Kcllogg's house, and Kellogg
was lying below in the entry with
chains on his legs, and lump as big
as an egg plant on bis head, and mad
besides, partridge's house was safe
as ever Then the policemen swore
and went home, and Partridge re
manned to soothe the Kellogg. II cost
him $500 in cash, and even then they
were down on him. He is going K
