INSTANCE OF SCENT IN A DOG.

Many years ago, when in India, had a
hound of cross-breed, which in India is
known as the Polygad These dogs are
unsuited for coursing, but make splendid
companions for long and rapid journeys
on horseback, being able to 60 great dis
tances without fatigue, and caring little
for heat. Phakree, beautifully for such
was her name. had been my companion
out of my sight. When she had become
my gallops, | parted with her to friend
whom she seemed to take great fancy
to, and who then resided on the Mahab-
leshwur Hill. My own station, Poonah,
lay about eighty miles east of Mahable-
shwur, and is separated from the hills by
three ranges OF lofty mountains. which in
those days were covered with dense Jun
gle. On the day of my departure / eau
chained for some days, so that she might
not follow me. On this occasion--for |
had been the journey once or twice be-
fore-I left the main road and selected an
unirequented bridle-path for my route. in
order that l might enjoy the beautiful
mountain scenery through which it led.

one night was reused by the bowling OF
a dog under my bedstead. l strnck

was poor Phakree. with collar round her
neck, and few links of chain hanging to
it. A letter received next morning from
my friend gave me to know that she had
broken loose and run away, and that, al

she was no where to be found. He re-
GREETED that we should never see her
again. She had been four days on her
journey; and her famished condition, and
the numerous wounds she had on her,
showed the privation she had undergone,
and the treatment she had received from
the dogs of the different villages through
which she had passed. The poor crea-
ture had no doubt scented me the whole
way, for had she followed or accompanied
any one, she would have been cared for
and protected. We never parted again.

suggestions Of value to his devisees
and to the public. In the closing
article of the testament he says:
II is my earnest desire and request
that all my heirs (tbis, of course,
is more especially directed to the
males) should invest their means
in the safest way. and pursue some
steady, permanent, legitimate bus
mess or employment with great
perseverance, aud industry and sue.
cess il sure to crown their efforts in
due time. This course is not only
AN honorable one, but is almost
always the most successful and salts

dealing in stocks and engaging in
uncertain and rash speculations ]
regard as a species OF gambling at
best. a mere lottery, and all though
sometimes pleasing and exciting
when tho luck is good, still in the
main such o course is generally
very injurious and demoralizing.
and often ends in ruin, both peouni-
arily aud morally. 1t is my hope
aud ardent desire that my heirs
will ever be honest, liberal, steady
industrious, kind to the nee'ly, and
attend regularly some church, my

n6cTha sinking OF the gray

@rThe sinking of the grave OF
Captain Jack, the Modoc warrior who
was hanged aud buried near Fort
klamath, Oregon, in 1873, created
much speculation in that neighbor
hood last summer, and to set all
doubts at rest, the grave was opened
few days ago and nothing but on
empty pine box was found. II is
believed that the bodies OF Captain
Jack aud of the other Indians hang-
cd with him were brought east and
emblamsd, and that they will soon
be found in the possession ofa show
man.
