Nusical Animals.

The tabled feasts of Orpheus are
not, perhaps, 80 wondrous as they at
first appear, says Leeds Mercury.
Certain notes, for example, sounded on
flute or other wind instrument, will
cause o dog to set up a lamentable howl,
evidently from the pain it produces,
either in the ear itself, or the nerves
connected with it. The war horse seems
to derive new life and vigor from the
sound OF the drum and trumpet; and at
the circus, two horses will not pace
regularly without music. Rampant
bulls have likewise, in several instances,
been calmed in gentleness by music.
OF this musical feeling in oxen, Mr..
Southey gives singular instance in bis
letters from Spain. The carts OF Co.
runna make so loud and disagreeable a
creaking with their wheels, from the
want of oil, that the governor once
issued an order to have them creased;
but it was speedily revoked, on the Pc
tition of the carriers, who stated that the
oxen liked the sound, and would not
draw without it's music. Even fish,
upon good authority, independent of the
amphion and the dolphin, and of the
old harper, who, as the ballad has it,
"harped fish out of the salt water, I"
are said to have shown signs of being
affected by music; and seals crowded to
hear violin, as we are told by Mr..
Laing, in his voyage to Spitzbergen.
Scoresby, junior, also tells us that
music, particularly a person whistling,
draws them to the surface, and induces
them to stretch their necks to the ut.
most extent 30 as to prove snare, by
bringing them within reach OF the
shooter.

Newspaper Business.

An exchange says: We suppose many
people think that he newspaper men
are persistent duns; 1T farmer place
himself in q similar business position
and see if he would not do the same.
Suppose he raised one thousand bushels
of wheat, and his neighbor should come
and buy bushel, and the price was q
small matter of only two dollars or less.
and the neighbor says, " I will hand You
the amonnt in few days" As the
farmer did not want to be small about
the matter, he says all right, and the man
leaves with the wheat. Another comes
in the same way until the whole one
thousand bushels of wheat are trusted
out to one thousand different persons,
and not one. of the purchasers concerns
himself about it, for it is a small amount
that he owes the farmer, and of course
that would not help him any. He does
not realize that the farmer has fritted
away all his large crop of wheat, and
that its value is due him in thousand
little driblets, and that he is seriously
embarrassed in his business because his
debtors treat it as small matter. But if
all would pay him promptly, which they
could do as we'll as not, it would be a
very large amount to the farmer, and
enable him to carry on his business
without difficulty. The above comparit
son is too true OF the difficulties tina.
the newspaper man has to contend with

Words OF Wisdom.

Get that you may give; and fail not to
give when you have got.
The strongest kind OF men are those
who have got the most weakness and
know it.
Have the courage to show your re-
spect for honesty, in whatever guise it
appears; and your contempt for dis.
honesty and duplicity, by whomsoever
exhibited.
Do not be afraid of diminishing you
own happiness by promoting that or
others. He who labors wholly for the
benefit of others, and, as it were, for
gets himself, is far happier than the man
who makes himself the sole object of all
his affections and e1ertions.
Whatever you wish your child to be,
be it yourself. If you wish it to be
happy, sober, truthful, afectionate,
honest, and godly, be yourself all these.
If you wish it to be lazy and sulky, a
liar and thief, drunkard and a swear
er, be yourself all these.
Men often speak contemptuously of
over exactness-or attending to minute
and subtle distinctions; while these
distinctions are exactly those which
call for careful attention in all who would
escape or detect error.

Continuing the Show.

Everybody has heard the old story of
the silent man who, riding over bridge,
asked his servant if he liked eggs, to
which the servant answered yes. Moth
ing more passed til the next year when,
riding over the same bridge, he turned
to- his servant and said: "How 2"
Poached, sir" was the immediate an
swer. This story has just been thrown
into the shade in Italy. When Pompeii
was destroyed by an eruption of Mount
'Vesuvius, A. D. 70, theatrical repre-
sentation, as everybody knows, was
going on in the Amphitheater. A GER
tain Langini having got permission to
open a theater on the ruins of the an
cient city announced the opening night
in the following advertisement:
AFTER a lapse Of more than eighteen
hundred years the theater Of this city
will be reopened with La Figlia del
Reggimento." I solicit continuance
of the favor bes towed on my predecessor,
Marcus Quintus Martins, and beg to
assure the public that I shall make every
effort TO equal the rare qualities he dis
played during his management.

The House Where Lincoln Died.

"Mr. Peterson,n said a Post reporter
to the very handsome and very gentle
manly night clerk at the National Hotel,
"I see paragraph going the rounds
of the press that the man in whose
house President Lincoln died asks the
Government to take it off his hands at
several times it's value. LIS there any
truth in the statement" ....'...
GAS the man who owned the house in
which President Lincoln died, himself
died eight years ago, and thus resigned
all right, title and interest in and to the
property in question, I think I am JUS
titled in saying there is no truth in the
statement" .'. '.''
"You are a son'of MIR. Peterson, the
late owner of the house referred toP",
IT am. The house cost my father
when it was built $13, 900, and we adver-
rised it at public sale about month
ago, bidding it in ourselves at St, 900.
We were willing to take half it's cost
price, but did not feel inclined to actu-
ally give it away. We are very willing
to sell it to the Government or to any
body else, but have not asked and do
not intend to ask it to purchase from US,
except in the same general manner We
invite buyers through the medium of an
advertisement. So far from my father
wishing to obtain a good price from the
authorities for the house, he made o
dying request to his children, that
should they see fit to sell the property,
they would carefully abstain from men,
tioning the fact that it was the house in
which Mr.. Lincoln died. He was an
noyed at the publicity which that event
gave his residence, and studiously sought
to avoid doing anything in that connec-
ton which might result in pecuniary
benefit to himself. I was small boy at
the time OF Mr.. Lincoln's death, and
was offered $40 for very little piece of
q towel which was stained wita some Of
his blood, and we'll remember fathers
indignation at the mere idea. There
has been good deal published in refer
ence to this matter, and it is very un-
kind and unjust, to say the least, to pull
a dead man out of his shroud t,' smirch
him with the filth of falsehood, the only
effect of which is to wound and annoy
his children. Warrington Post.

A Home in Greenland.

Evening is the liveliest time in the
Greenland hut. Then the bright lamps
are burning, the kettles and pots (made
of soapstone) all steaming and boiling
over each lamp, the women busily chat
ting at their work, and half-naked chill
dren running about OF the warm rein
deer skins on the ledge behind them.
This is the scene going on before us.
The seal hunter has just arrived home
from after his days toll on the sea, and
while he is hanging mp his lines, his
waterproof gloves, and other parapher-
MALTA, a piece of skin is drawn forth
from beneath the ledge and spread be-
fore him. Its contents-the small dried
fish called "angmagsat," or capeling-
he eats in silence, weary as he is. This
is only q preliminary meal, an appetiz-
ing pastime, while the more substantial
things over the lamp are getting ready
and it does not take long to boil seal
flesh. After the fish he takes draught
from the water pail behind the door.
The skin curtain of the ledge, hiding
the mysteries of the lower regions, is
once more drawn aside, and the skin,
with the remnants, disappears behind
it, to join host OF the more heterogen-
eous articles. A good deal of talking in
the relating line, or in the chatting,
prattling, merrymaking style is gener-
ally going on. What I remember most
distinctly from my many visits and stays
in the Greenland huts are the stories
and descriptions of the men relative to
their sea adventures, accompanied by
the most animated gestures, showing
how the seal had first appeared, and
then again dived down on his approach
ing it; how he 1.-THE hunter] in his turn
had fingered behind until the animal,
made incautious by the ensuing silence,
again rose to the surface; and now the
hunter, leaning back with graceful
movement, shows how he resolutely
swept across long surge, and came
within reach of his mark, took aim, an d
threw his harpoon and bladder float;
how the wounded animal dived and
again came to the surface and so forth.
In fact, he paints the scene with the
most lively colors, as we all listened IN
wrapt attention. My brother, who had
lively comprehension and great tai
ent for mimicry, had in after years in
Denmark often to act the part of the
seal-hunter, and it strikes me that I had
myself part in play representing an
unsuccessful whale hunt. Certainly we
had many an hour of amusement in the
Greenland cottages. No doubt we were
very unpretending, and easy to please in
the extreme; but why criticise the
means when the result is happiness :?
And happy we undoubtedly were, alike
in the dark, frosty days, with the moon
shining down upon us at noontide, and
in the calm, delightful summertime,
with its bright sunGt nights. The
Field.

The last exotic spice which has been
acclimated in California is the ginger
plant. At Santa Clara the plant is
growing thriftily. It resembles the
cornstalk in size and appearance, but
unlike corn, yields blossom. From
the root is made the valuable product,
Jamaica ginger.
