Eating Customs.
American Naturalist.

The Cocopah Indians, of Arizona, will
not eat pork, though they have acquired
a taste for salt beef. They are very fond
of fish and will eat them at any time.
The Mono Lake Indians, Of California,
eat soup made of angle worms thicken-
ed with grass seed flour. They also
gather bats from caves and roast them
in hot ashes, without removing either
feathers or entrails. Wasp nests are
roasted and eaten the more young they
contain the better they are rellshed The
young Indians in order to find the nests
capture wasp, place small straw in
| the abdomen, light it and let the insects
go; they then watch its flight, follow ii
and secure the nest The Miami Indi
ans were very fond of dish prepared
by boiling the roots of the yellow lily
| (Lilium canadenso) with meat In the
fall the roots. often two inches IN diam
eter, are gathered They taste very
much like green corn. These Indians
also eat otto oil cooked in soup, and con,
slider it very nutritious. The Cheyennes
and Arapahoes consider dog meat a SUI
perb dish, and when they wish to honor
a guest especially they kill the latest
dog and roast it; great offense is given il
the guest eat not bountifully of the
chosen dish. They also eat poisoned
wolves in the buffalo country
The white men kill the buffaloes
for their hides, tallow, tongue
and some of the best portions of
the meat. The tongues bring high
price. The rest of the carcass is then
poisoned with strychnine The wolves
eat the meat, and their intestines be-
come infiamed, producing death. The
Indians remove the viscera and eat the
remaining portions of the wolf. On
Crow creek, in Kansas, in 1865, saw
the carcasses of hundreds of wolves
that had been thus eaten. The Wichita
and Comanche Indians will not eat fish
that have scales, but are fond Of those
that have no scales; they catch both
kinds, and sell those which they do moi
like to the whites.

An excited journalist out in Floyd
county, looking through pair Of demo
cratic spectacles of great magnifying
power, "sees the republican party tot
tering to its fall" Oh, he does. does he
Then he had better stand from under,
for when it does come down, it will
come like a thousand of brick This
won't be the first time it has "tottered
to its fall, y and it has always made a
success of it heretofore. 1t tottered to
its fall once, and fell upon Breckenridge,
and for nearly five years it tottered
around on the democratic party and
nearly trampled it entirely and eternally
off the democratic slate. It feel upon
poor Mr.. Greeley, and hattened him
out badly. 1t fell upon one General
Mcclellan, and a party of the name OF
Seymour. More recently it fell upon
Sammy Tilden, and made him think he
was trespassing upon a land slide.
Whenever it falls, we notice that who
ever stands in the way gets hurt; and
it may be that the excited journalist
has tarried too long at his spectacles
and didn't see straight. 1t may be that
the republican party, instead of totter-
ing to its fall. was merely STOPPING down
to pick upa club; and if such was the
case, there will be wailing and gnashing
of teeth before long. The republican
party is all here yet. 1t is right where
it always was, and is ready for fight
this fall, as it was last November.

ANTON GRAFTON OVER CESAR.

To bury Caesar because the times are hard
And his folks can't afford to hire an undertaken.
The evil that men do lives after them.
Benefit of their life insurance.
SO let it be with the deceased.
Brutus hath told you Caesar was ambitious:
What does Brutus know about it:
1t is none of his funeral. Would that it were.
Here, under leave OF you, come to
Make speech at Ca -arS funeral.
He was my friend faithful and just to me:
He loaned me five dollars once when was in a
pinch,
And signed my petition for post-oifce.
But Brutus says he was ambitious.
BrutuS should wipe off his chin.
Cesar hath brought many captlyeS home TO Rome
Who broke rock on the streets until their ran
SONS
Did the general Golfers fill.
When that the poor hath cried Caesar hath wept.
Because iC didn't cost anything. and
Made him solid with the masses. lCheers,
Ambition >hcud be made of sterner stuff
ct Brutus saws he was ambitious.
Brutus is liar and can prove it.
You all did see that on the Lupercal
I thrice presented him q klngly crown
Which thrice he did refuse, because it did not fit
him quite.
Was this ambition? Yet Brutus says he was am
bilious.
Brutus is not only the biggest liar in the country
But is a horse-thief of the deepest dye. lap
plause.
II you have tears, prepare to shed them now.
Laughter.
You all do know this ulster,
[ remember the first time ever Cesar put it on
It was on summers evening in his tent.
With the thermometer registering ninety degrees
in the shade;
But it was ulster to be proud of.
And cost him seven dollars at Marcus Swartz-
meyers.
Corner of Fulton and Ferry streets, sign of the
red dag,
Old Swartz wanted forty dollars for it,
But finally came down to seven dollars because it
was Caesar!
Was this ambitious? If Brutus says it was
He is even a greater liar than Mrs. Tilton!
Look! in this place ran Cassius dagger through:
Through this the son of gun of brutus stabbed,
And. when he plucked his cursed steel away,
Mark Antony how the blood of Cesar followed it!
TCheerS and cries OF " Give something on
the silver bill - " Hit him again J" etc
| come not, friends to steal away your hearts,
[ am no thief, BrutuS is.
BrutuS has a monopoly in all that business,
And if he had his deserts. he would be
In the Penitentlary. and don't you forget 1t.
Kind friends, sweet friends, do not wish to stir
you up
To such flood of mutiny,
And as it looks like rain,
The pall-bearers will proceed to place the coffin
in the hearse,
And we will proceed to bury Cesar,
Not to praise him.
