History and Poetry.

| The New Orleans Monthly Reriep has
poetical contributor who reioices in the
nome Of Acquila Isle Aquila) who has quite
q talent for history. He has done up the
sovereigns of England in ambling poesy
much to the satisfaction Of all the departed
save he of Runnymede, who is placed in a
| false position thus:
Now come we to Richard, the great and the brave
Who sought mid red battle a warrior grave
To rescue the tomb of our Saviour, he started.
And won there the name OF the great Lion
But John, they can Lack land-a cowardly name,
Slew Richards young SOL aud asserted his claim.
John desires us to correct the poet.
Richard never had son for him or any
one else to slay. He is liable to the sus-
picion of having made away with young
Arthur, Duke of Brittany, son of his
brother Geoffrey. If Acquila means to
intimate that Richard l. found "a warriors
grave" in his raid into the Holy L and, he
is in fault again, as the great Lion hearted
was killed in France. not in battle, but
while trying to batter down the castle of
one of his stubborn vassals.
The April number Of the New Orleans
Monthly Reriev has been laid on our table,
by Professor D. K. Whitaker, the editor and
proprietor. The Recie,c is printed on clear.
white paper, in a high style Of the typo
graphical art. The contents include de-
fense of Louisiana, by Bishop Wilmer, and
will 60 down as another drop added to the
abundant stream of literature on that sub
iect. The fact that Louisiana has never
been attacked or assailed by anybody, will
not, we hope, de1ract from the merits of the
good bishops defense" The other arti-
cles on political or semi-political topics are
entitled "The Future and Duty of the
Young South" POLAND and the United
States" The literary articles are generally
of high order of merit, and one or two
scientific papers show learning and re-
search.

The Black Hills Business

The Black Hills Commission
ers are represented as being very
glad ut getting out of the Indian
country, where the threatening
attitude of several bands ct Sioux
savages during the setting OF the
council, was suggestive of u prob
ability that they might become
pre- maturcly bald-headed, and rem
der their return home alive, some
what doubtful. 1t is also repre-
sented that the Commission did
not understand the redskins.
The Indians came to the Coun-
ell in battle array, as usual, with
gun-shooting and shouting. The
commissioners had never seen any
Indians except the painted efligies
set up in front of cigar shops to
guide the lovers of the weed,
And they thought this demon
strateon was hostile, instead of
courtly and diplomatic after the
Indian fashion. Consequently
they broke for Cheyenne, arriving
at that point so white with fright
that they were the palest pale faces
ever seen in the Indian country.
The treaty negotiations for the
possession of the Black Hills coun-
try having failed, what next? will
the government enforce the treaty
of 1869 and exclude the miners
already on the ground, or who
may go there? Failing to do so,
border war seems inevitable.
The Black Hills business is a
difficult question to Laadle. For
the. Indians seem resolved not tC
give up the Hills, and gold
hunters are determined to GO
there.

for warning me, IS can prepare myself,
as we'll as my poor Pensioners, who love
me very much. The surgeon, who was
never astonished at great things, looked
upon this priest, who received his death
sentence unmoved, with amazement. and
said, ''Come tomorrow, at 8 o'clock, to
the Hotel Dieu and ask for> me. - The
priest was prompt. The surgeon. pro-
curedsfor him = special room, and in q
months time the man went out cured.
When leaving he took out of = sack 30
francs in small change. ut is all I have
to offer you, DOCTOR he said; II came
here on foot from Rim order to save
this" The doctor looked at the money,
smiled, and drawing handful Of gold
from his pocket, put it in the bag along
with the 80 francs, saying, lit is for your
poor and the priest went away. Some
years later the celebrated doctor, feeling
death to be near, bethought him of the
good priest and wrote to him. He came.
and Dupuytren received from him the
''last consultations" and died in his arms.

WHY HOGS EAT ASHES.

Hogs when confined are very fond OF
ashes and cinders. This singular pro.
pensity if easily accounted for. Poultry
are very fond Of egg shells, lime, sand,
ETC., and it is we'll known these substance
are necessary in order to form the shell
of eggs, and to furnish material for the
bones Of fowls. Now is it reasonable to
suppose that swine eat ashes and cinders
for the purpose Of supplying the mate
rial for their bodies, and this singular in.
stinct in animals so low in the scale of in.
telligence. is truly wonderful, for ashes
contain the ingredients which are neces-
sary to form bones, viz: carbonate and
sulphate of lime, phosphate Of lime and
magnesia, clay, silica gclatinized, and
made soluble by fire. When hogs are at
large, they take in clay and silica with
their food, and eat bones and roots
which contain the necessary ingredients
but when they are shut up, they endeav.
or to supply the materials necessary for
keeping up their frames by devourine
ashes and clnders. Let them have plenty
Of them.-People.
