Our thanks are due the Hon. W. W.
Field for complimentary tickets to the
State fair, which is to be held q. Milwau-
kee on the Sth 9th 10th & llth of sept 1875.

best ever had. Mr.. Field, the efficient sec
rotary has been in Milwaukee making ar
rangements for the approaching annual cx-
fibtion. Extensive Improvements are to
be made in tie grounds and buildings and
the managers hope to be able to give the
best exhibition this fall that has yet taken
place. The water mains viii be extended
to Cold Spring AMI pure lake water will be
introduced in the grounds. Particular at
tention will be paid this year to the prem
iums for horses, which will be substantially
increased.

singuIar Dream.

An Amesbury man had o singular
dream under the following circum'
stance: His father and mother had
recently died within three or four weeks
Of each other, and one night in q dream
he saw his mother standing by bis bed,
and a little distance away he saw a cot
bed with a peculiar coverlet, on which
lay a man with his back turned toward
him, His mother called him by name
and said, Here are seven dollars" He
attached no significance to the dream
until. when he went to the post-ofiee,
he received a letter stating that his
brother, who was on a western railroad,
had been badly crushed, and requested
his presence Immediately. On arriving
at bis brother home be was struck with
surprise when he found him lying on q
cot bed, with the same kind of a coverlet
as he had seen 10 his dream, with his
back turned toward him. The brother
died, and the gentleman was still more
astonished when, on settling his affairs,
the first bill presented was just ~ in
amount. Strange as the story may
seem, it is told by the man himself, and
he is a gentleman whose v~eracity no one
would impeach.

A Munler,s ExperIenee in Afrlca.

From 1868 to 1872 the Hon. w. H.
Drummond spent most of his time in
hunting the wild animals of South Africa,
and tells the story Of his experiences in
a book Just published in Edinburgh.
His adventures we're often very perilous.
He has been knocked down and pounded
by buffaloes, chased by elephants aud
clawed by lions. Mr.. Drummond dis.
covered one curious fact about elephants
which was not previously known. They
get drunk. There is a fruit Of which
they are p~assionately fond which makes
them tipsy, and after eating it they stag
ger about, screaming so as to be heard
miles of, and not seldom having tre-
mendous fights. Native hunters
writes Mr.. Drummond, fear to approach
them when in this state; but on the prin-
ciple that it is safer to quarrel with q
drunken man than a sober one, | cen
slider that, so long as you possess sufi-
eient nerve not to become frustrated by
their trumpeting, or by the exhibition Of
strength displayed upon the trees and
upon one another, you have far more
chance al such a time Of killing several,
as they are not so likely to take to flight
at the first shot and perhaps make their
next halt thirty miles off. Although | do
not think that the lion deserves the title
Of king Of beasts, as the elephantis more
sagacious, and the black rhinoceros is
certainly more dangerous, and either Of
the two could kill him in a few moments
with but little danger to themselves,
consider him the most noblelooking OIL
