Speaking of the bores and rimpositions
Inflicted upon the literary community, an
Incident in Longfellow's experience is re-
lated which is not generally known. He
once received n letter requesting him to
compose an a~crostic, the first letters OF
which should spell My sweet girl" The
applicant added, Write as if it were some
beautiful girl with whom you were in love
just rs if it were for yourself" At the foot
of the letter were these words, "Send bill. :
How gratified the poet must have been with
uch a testimony of his talent from an utter
stranger.
A man at Landingville Pa, slaughtered q
corn-fed hog weighing over two hundred
pounds. The water was ready to scald the
porker, when one of the butchers thought il
advisable to add a small quantity of rosin to
loosen the bristles. He went to the store,
md helped himself to a chunk of what he
thought was rosin, which he placed in the
cub with the hog, and poured the scalding
water over it. When they thought the hog
was sufficiently scalded, they poured off the
water, which, by this time, had changed to
o dark red color, ard the hog WINS dyed n
royal purple into the skin. The butcher
had got hold of q chunk of extract of log
wood instead of rosin. Instead of scrnping
the bristles off, they were compelled TO skin
the hog similar to skirming an OK.

THE NUBIAN DESERT. Ep

| soon fell into n regular routine of travel,
which, during all my later experience OF
the desert, never became monotonous. j
rose at lawn every morning, bathed my
eyes with a handful of the precious water,
and drank a cup of coffee. After the tent
had been struck and the camels laden i
walked ahead for two hours, often so far in
advance that l lost sight and hearing of the
caravan. 1 found an unspeakable fascina-
ton in the sublime solitude of the desert.
1 often beheld the sun rise when, within the
wide ring of the horizon, there was no other
living creature to be seen. He came up
like a god, in awful glory, and it would lave
been n natural act had l cast myself upon
the sand and worshipped him. The sudden
change in the coloring of the landscape, on
his appearance-the lighting up of the dull
sand into a warm, golden hue, and the
tintings of the purple and violet on the dis
tant porphyry hills-was a morning miracle,
which L never beheld without awe. The
richness of this coloring made the desert
beautiful it was too brilliant for desolation.
The scenery, so far from depressing, in
spirited and exhilarated me. / never felt
the sensation of physical health and strength
in such perfection, and was ready to shout
from morning till night from the overflow
ing OF happy spirits. The air is an elixir Of
life, as sweet and pure and refreshing as
that which the first man breathed on the
morning of the creation. You inhale the
unadulterated elements of the atmosphere,
for there are no exhalations from moist
earth, vegetable matter, or the smoke and
steams which arise from the abodes of men,
to stain its purity. This air, even more
than its silence and solitude, is the secret
of ones attachment to the desert. 1t is a
beautiful illustration of the compensating
care of that Providence which leaves none
of the waste places of the earth without
some atoning glory. Where all the pleas
ant aspects of nature are wanting-where
there IS no green thing, no fount for the
thirsty lip, scarcely the shadow of q rock
to shield the ~wanderer in the blazing noon
God has breathed upon the wilderness
his sweetest and tenderest breath, giving
clearness to the eye, strength to the frame
and Joyous exhilaration to the spirits

The following interesting description Of q
bear-fght, we take from a contemporary /:
"a fight between two bears took place at
the Geological Gardens in Cologne the other
day. The bears had been brought from
Spitzbergen five years ago, and had been
placed in a large pit, with a tank in the CEN
tire. Until within the last few days they had
remained upon excellent terms with each
other, but last week a quarrel occurred be-
tween them, the result of which was that the
female bear took refuge upon the summit Of
4 large rock in n corner of the pit. The
male did not attempt to follow her, and she
remained there three days, when, pressed by
hunger, she descended again. As soon as
the male bear saw her, he immediately rushed
at her, and attacked her with his fore paws.
The keepers attempted to separate them,
aud belabored the male with heavy iron bars,
but the bones in the head of the Polar bear
are SO much harder than those of the ordi-
nary bear that these blows took no effect.
The male bear continued to wreak his ven-
geance upon his companion, and, after hav.
ing almost torn her body into ribbons, he
dragged her to the bottom of the tank, and
held her there until he felt assured that oil
signs Of life were extinct. He then brought
her body back to the floor of the pit, and
dragged it round the pit for nearly an hour.
After this he withdrew into his sleeping-den
to rest from his labors, and the keepers at
once closed the iron bars upon him. Having
examined the body of the dead bear they
found that it had received more than q hum
dred wounds; the neck and head were crush
ed almost to q jelly, and the flesh was hang
ing in strips from the back and sides. Dur
ing the whole combat neither of the bears
uttered q sound"
