ST. LOUIS has caught an nelephant, in
the shape of a sea lion. Thisenterpris-
ing seal, unaccustomed to the slow
going ways of the old town on the river,
escaped from his tank, climbed over the
fence, and was found sporting in one of
the flsh-ponds of the grounds. The
secretary ofthe institution demonstrated
with Ben 1.-THE sea lion) against causing
too much excitement in the city, and
Ben walked back to his tank. On Fri
day last he was missing again, and
was found in a wood-pile snarling and
swapping at some children. He was
now in a vicious mood, and seemed de-
termined to get away from st. Louis at
all hazards. He was finally returned to
the tank, and now st. Louis wants
Chicago to tell her what to do with his
sealship.

WASHINGTON.

The Presidents Reasons for Removals.
Washington, Nov. 15.-The Senate
Commerce committee are expected to
ask Secretary Sherman the reasons for
the removal of Arthur and Cornell,
New York Collector and Naval Officer.
The Secretary will reply substantially
that they were made because an official
report and other circumstances showed
that these officers had been connected
with the old vicious system Of carrying
on the custom-house in partisan inter-
est, and that the good of the public
service required the entrusting of the
new and purely commercial system of
the administration to new men. Such
reply will probably cause favorable
report on the new nominations by one
majority.
Anti-administratiop Senators have
frequently called for the causes of re-
movals, and they were always disap'
pointed by receiving frank and cour-
teous replies, which disarmed their hos
tility and rendered effectual opposition
impossible. The Presidents theory
is said to be that the Senate has the
right to inquire into the causes for the
removal of any except diplomatic off.
GERS; that the reasons might be given to
the Senate if it asked for them, but
that Senators have no right whatever
to solicit appointments or to volunteer
advice to him on that subject. He ad
mits their right and duty to scrutinizt
not only appointments but removals
but holds that as this is their sworn du
ty, they are thereby prevented from
asking him to make specified appoint
ments. He denies entirely the leas
authority for the abuse which is called
.'the courtesy of the Senate" ant
which has been held to give to Re

THE Poncas are very wild, warlike
and superstitious, even when compared
with the Sioux, Cheyennes or other
fierce Indian nations, and, though but
few in numbers at the present time, by
reason of their reduction in their wars
a few years since, when situated in
Northern Nebraska and Western Da-
kota, near their enemies, the Brules,
Ogalallas and Minneconjou Sioux, yet
they are ambitious to enter some new
region where they may hunt wild game
and feel less fettered by civilizing in
fluences. This tribe is the one which
almost annually engages in the horrify-
ing self-tortures incident to the "Sun
Dance"
