of Brownsville the
DETECTION is so great that a large
tract of land formerly on the United
States side of the river is now on
the Mexican side. A few miles
northwest a change has occurred
from the shifting Of the bed of the
river, by which four Mexican ran
chercs have been. inyoluntarlly
made citizens of the United States.
Captain Gregory's labors will be
confined to ascertaining how many
and great these changes IRE. 1t is
supposed by officers Of the engineer
department that they are considera-
ble enough to warrant our govern
ment calling for an international
commission to determine on a fixed
boundary between Mexico and
Texas. In all probability the Uni
ted States will insist upon the ole
channel of the river as the prope
dividing line, as Mexico seems t
have been the greatest gamer b,

Between $1,000 and 10000 alli-
gator skins are tanned yearly, which
are consumed by boot and shoe
manufacturers in every portion of
the United States, as we'll as ex-
ported to London and Hamburg.
The alligators formerly came mostly
from Louisiana, and New Orleans
was the great center Of business,
The Florida sWamps and moFassea
are now the harvest fields, and
Jacksonville, in that State, the great
depot. The alligators often attain
a length of eighteen ia twenty feet,
and frequently live TO very old
age. The hides are stripped off,
and the belly aud sides, the only
portions CT TO use, are packed in
barrels, in strong brine, and shipped
to the Northern tanner, who keeps
them under treatment for from six
to eight months, when they are
ready to be cut up 30 far the
leather has been mainly used in the
manufacture of boots and shoes,
but handsome slippers are also
made Of it.

CromwelI's Bible.

In the collection of bibles in the
Centennial Eposition is a copy of
CromweIrs bible, so called because
he published an edition of such
size that each soldier could carry it
in his knapsack. A soldier was
found dead at Naseby in whose
knapsack copy was found pene-
trated with bullet, which reached
that verse in Ecclesiastes, "Remem-
Der now thy Creator in the days Of
thy youth" The book is five inches
long, two and a half wide, and one
and three.quarters thick, weighs
only eight and a half ounces, and
is the property of the American
Bible Society. 1t belonged to John
Milton, and was printed in 1856 by
John Field, Printer to Parliament.
There are but three other copies in
the country, one of which is in the
library of the Boston Athen@um,
another in Harvard University Ii
brary, and a third in the library Of
the late George Liyermore.

XIII MEMPHIS TENN TUESDAY EVENING DECEMBER

left in JohnsOn's charge by the pro-
prietor Of one of the side shows
that was with Howe's circus on its
late visit TO this place. The snake had
been sick, and fearing that it would
die if carted about from place to
place, its owner made arrangements
with johnson to take care Of it
until such time as it should be sent
for, to again appear in the exhibition.
Sam has paid all needed attention
to his snakeship, and the huge
boa" has quite recovered from his
illness under his consitlerate and
careful attention. johnson had
tried to establish friendly relations
with the snake, and flattered HIM
self that he had succeeded very
well. Two or three nights ago,
when the weather turned so sudden
ly and severely cold, johnson found
that the boa was benumbed with
cold and apparently half dead.
With a strange disregard of conse-
i quences he took the half frozen
snake from its box and placed it in
his own warm bed from which he
had risen. He then returned to
bed, intending, when the snake
should revive from its chilled and
benumbed condition, to replace ii
in the box. Unfortunately John
son fell into a dose, and then into
: a deep sleep. From his sound
slumber he was awakened by q
