Keeping UP Appearances.

A member of the sanitary police force came
across boy the other day who was wheeling
home load of oyster cans and bottles, and,
curious to know what use the lad could put
them to, he made direct inquiry. O
"Going to throw them over into our back
yard" replied the boy. II took two loads
home yesterday
But what do you use EN- for p
I'D just as lief tell" continued the boy. as
he spit on his hands to resume his hold of the
barrow. "Were going to have some rela-
shuns come in from the country. We may
not have much to eat obut if they see these
cans, and bottles, and boxes they'll think
we've had listers. champagne figs and nuts
till we've got tired of 'em, and are living on
bread and taters for a healthy changeP'

MAMMOTlIUPHACY.
The Oldest Preserved Meat In the world


London Glohel
In q lengthy correspondence that has lately
been published in one OF the Russian papers
respecting q recent exploring expedition In
Siberia a curious incident is related by one OF
the travellers, Happening to drive in a
sledge along the base Of one of the monstrous
ice cliffs that overhang the estuary of the
River Lena he came upon pack Of wolves
devouring the frozen flesh Of n mammoth
| The latter must have been in an almost perfect
state Of preservation when first exposed by
the breaking away Of the cliff, as the snow
was Uttered with fragments of skin, to which
in some instances. small pieces of flesh still
adhered. Considering thato countless ages
have rolled by since animals of the mammoth
species could possibly have existed in ST.
IBERIA, there seems small doubt of the frozen
flesh in question (if it were really what 1t was
alleged to be- being the oldest preserved meat
in the world. If the story is as true in its de-
tails as the traveller would have us believe 1t
to be. his supposition that other mammoths
are embedded there, In an equally good state
rect, and we may yet live to see the gour-
mands of Paris indulging the appetite
with yfiet de mammoth, warranted fresh
from Siberia after having been. slowed
away in Natures ice-cellar for few score
Thousand years. SO little has been explored
Of the ice beds Of Polar Siberia that for aught
we know to the contrary u grain of truth
may exist in the opinion Of the same enthu-
siastic discoverer that Recommendations OF
antediluvans animals frozen alive during the
sudden transition of the climate of Siberia
from equatorial heat to arctic cold lie i'm
bedded In the Ice strata OF the North s iberian
coast" Until however, some of the meat has
been sent to Europe and has been pronounced
genuine by Prof Owen, or some other emil
nent authority. we must be permitted to place
the discovery Of "meat mines' in the same
category as that to which people usually
assign the stories that have made Baron
Munehausens name immortal.

THE GAS COMPANY BILL.

The extremity to which the champions in

poratons Is strikingly illustrated by tho re
port of the Judiciary Committee adversely to
a bill repeating the charter OF the Crescent
City Gas Company. That company was onts
Of the corrupt and fraudulent concerns be-
aueathed to Us by th.s Warmoth dynasty.
The company was given monopoly Sf the
privilege of selling gas en- New Orleans for
fifty years after the termination of the char
ter of the old gas company, which had en-
joyed that monopoly for forty years. This
grant was made on the condition that the COM
pany should construct new gasworks. This
was to be done in ten years. An adventurer
from the North came down to this city after
It had been decided that the old gas COM
pany terminated in 1875, bought up majority
