Buffers, who has just turned his thir
tieth year. the other day invited the
young Marques Of Ely, who has not
yet reached his thirtieth year, to come
and visit him at Kilkenny Castle. After
the ladies had retired, Lord Ormonde
invited his guest to join the gentle
men with B. and s. and cigars. Lord
Ely declined and went ignominiously
to bed. His host was 80 much in
furiated at this weak and unworthy
conduct, that he went upstairs with a
retinue of kerns and gallowglasses, took
Lord Ely out Of bed, and had him
brought down stairs and tossed, like
Sancho Panza, in blanket. The Mar
guess Of Ely, thinking this conduct in
hospitable, left Kilkenny Castle early
the next day, and the two great houses
of Butler and Lotus are now snarling
at each other like cats which long ago
immortalized the name Of Kilkenny by
their internecine valor, The opinion of
unprejudiced outsiders will generally
be that the Marques OF Ely, consider
ing his selfish and disagreeable behavior,
was let off very easily indeed. In the
brave days off Sir Jonah Darlington such
a craven guest would have been turned
over on his head and filled with alter
nate doses Of brandy and shot.

RICHMOND, Va, May 1.-THE citizens
OF Hanover county, In the neighbor-
hood OF Atlee's Station, and not far from
the Slashes, where Henry Clay first saw
the light, were thrown into q state of
the greatest CONSERVATION and terror by
the appearance Of q lioness roaming
about the woods. The animal Is re-
ported to have been first seen on the
farm OF Mr.. Barnes, and 80 great was
the terror 1t infused that the people took
refuge In their homes. TWAS next seen
on several adjacent farms, and the
description given Of 1T leaves no doubt
in the minds OF Hanoverians that the
strange visitor Is veritable lioness,
which they suppose must have escaped
from one Of the many oircuses which
have recently passed through this Sec
ton Of the country.
This morning the citizens assembled
in large numbers, armed to the teeth,
and tracked the animal for q number
Of miles through the country almost into
the vicinity Of the Chiekahominy river,
where II became lost. The tracks left
by the feet OF the animal are different
from those OF any ever seen by any
standing still the impressions made by
the claws in the soil were over nine
inches apart. 1t liz reported to be NOV.
ing In the direction of Richmond In q
line nearly parallel with the old Tele-
graph road. or what is more Familiarity
known as the Brooke turnpike. The
latest report from Hanover county states
that large body OF citizens, composed
OF cavalry and infantry, were cautiously
pursuing the supposed lioness.
The people In all that section OF the
country have carefully housed til cir
little children and their stock from the
fear that the ferocious beast may pounce
upon them at any moment. Tomorrow
tie pursuit will be renewed, and In all
probability the roaming lioness, II It
should prove to be such an animal, will
be brought to bay.

In the swamps Of the Gambia, after
they have been dried by the tropical
sun, there are to be found here and there
beneath the surface clods Of earth uni

size Of a mans two fists. These clods
inclose living animals, which have been
led by instinct to hide themselves away
toward the close Of the rainy season.

mud while tits yet soft, and before 1t had
been hardened by the scorching rays Of
the sun. On breaking one Of these
Jumps Of mud it is found to be sort Of
punch or cocoon, with thin walls, and
with thin projections here and there cor

rounded, but its narrower end is closed
by slightly convex lid with q narrow
