A Horses Sense Of Smell.

. . E9 r. ~ =
An African pony, unlike Jobs war
horse, ''smelleth'' not "the battle afar
off" but he will smella poisonous snake;
a. a sufficient distance to avoid him.
An English gentleman was leading his
pony one day in South Africa, when he
saw his Kaffir servant suddenly Jump on
one side. Knowing that it was snake
that had alarmed him, the gentleman
dropped the reins and went forward to,
kill it. 1t was puff-adder, the reptile
which, it is thought, Cleopatra used to-
commit suicide. Killing it with a stone,
he examined its glands and found them
filled with poison. 5.,
On returning to the pony and advanc-
ing his hand to take the reins. the horse
SHE'D back in great alarm. For several
minutes he would not allow his master to
approach. Some of the odor of the adder
had attached itself to the gentleman's
hands, and the cautious animal, being
warned by his sense Of smell, was afraid
that there was danger even in his masters
touch.
the horses nose is, as every boy who
has trained colt knows, one of his
means of gaining knowledge. IF horse
is afraid Of an object, the best way to 70
move his fear is to let him smell Of it.

Sagacity Of a Pair of Swallows.

At Rosenberg, in the nelghborhood of
Graz, pair Of swallows had built their
nest in the floor Of peasants house.
When the door was closed, the only en-
trance to the room was through the win
dow near by. One evening at harvest
time all the inhabitants of the house
went to The meadows situated at the foot
of the mountaio, almost two miles dis
tant from the dwelling. The wife forgot
to leave the window Of the cottage open,
and scarcely was the work of harvesting
under way, when pair of swallows flew
around her with loud tWitterings, hitting
her on the head and shoulders with their

A Riinoceros Attacks a Train.

At Pittsburgh, Pa, there was an ex-
citing accident occurred recently. while
the railroad show of the Sells Bros. was
making its advent into the city. The
cages of the menagerie were loaded on
fiat cars. A projection near the Point
bridge struck the cages and overturned
three OF them, containing a rhinoceros,
hon and black bear. a large crowd Of
people had been attracted to the spot.
and following on the heels of the acct
dent there was an incident that made the
people scatter like leaves before the wind.
The rhlnoceros escaped from his cage,
and at fast gal, started up the railroad
track. No one was particularly DESTROYS
of being in his way. and consequently
everybody cleared out or got in secure
positions. The frightened and exasper.
ated beastsoon encountered locomotive,
at which he made a lunge, and from the
pilot tore off an iron bar with as much
ease as it would have ripped away strip
OF board. Then he dashed at freight
car, in the side of which he knocked q
big hole. Mr.. Kelly, his keeper, finally
caught up with him, and, catching him
by the ear, attempted to lead him away,
but he refused to obey. Kelly then leap
ed on his back, and was treated to ride
Of several hundred yards. The showmen
eventually succeeded IN lassooing the
rhinoceros, and with the aid of half
hundred men he was forced into box
car, from which a transfer to his cage was
subsequently made. The bear displayed
his agility by running up an inclined
plane for some distance before he was
captured. He would doubtless have
reached the top had he been let alone.

that these were certainly her swallows

The Gold That Wears.

We parted one eve at the garden gate
When the dew was on the heather,
And promised my love to come back to her
Ere the pleasant autumn weather
That we twain might wed
When the leaves were red,
And live and love together.
She cut me tress from her nut-brown hair
As kissed her lips of cherry,
And gave her ring of the old-time gold,
With stone like the mountain berry
As clear and blue
As her eyes were true
Sweet eyes SO bright and merry!
'The wealth Of my love is all have
To give5you," she said, in turning;
1.-THE gold that wears-like the radiant stars
Inyonder blue vault burningn
And Itook the trust,
As mortal must,
Whose soul for love is yearning
Fate keptus apart for many years,
And the blue sea rolled between US,
Though I kissed each day the nut brown tress
And made fresh VOWS to Venus
Till I sought my bride,
And Fate detied,
That had failed from loye to wean us.
found my love at the garden gate
When the dew was on the heather,
And VIC twain were wed at the Ii tie kirk
In the pleasant autumn weather,
And the gold that wears
Now soothes my cares,
AS we live and love together.

Y1LUE OF FIAT MONEY.

"Fiat money" or money "Testng on tho
" faith and resources of great people" may
be a good thing for the poor and lazy. who
are not able to earn any money of any other
kind. But we doubt whether it is as good
even for them, as the gold and silver which
cheat nobody and can never be repudiated A
very timely record has been published by
Thomas p. Miller g. Co., bankers, No. % st.
Francis-st., Mobile, of the gold value of Con-
federate money from January 1, 1862, to the
close of the war; As this firm was constantly
engaged in banking business and give the
record from actual transactions or quotations,
it has especial value, and ought to be studied
with care, if not with pleasure, by those
who think that the mere fiat or stamp
of a Government can give fixed or reason
ably steady value to anything which has not
value in itself. If, as some theorists claim,
necessity in use is the essential element, there
was at no time any other money in general
circulation in the COnlederacy, and the people
were compelled to use notes or nothing. III,
as others assert. currency will not depreciate
as long as the amount issued is only equal
"to the wants of trade" tits a matter of IN
disputable record that the volume of Con-
of trade; that more was continually demanded,
with good reason; and that the depreciation,
therefore, according to these theorists, could not
have resulted from an excessive issue. Finally,
1t is asserted that great mischief is done by a
promise to pay gold at some fixed date, be-
cause the gold bugs lin the elegant Ian
guage of Western statesmen-have the power
to squeeze the debtor by making gold scarce
at the time of payment. But the Confederate
paper was only redeemable six months after
the independence of the COnfederacy was
acknowledged by the United States. so that,
to all intents and purposes, it was fiat money,
resting upon It's necessity in use, and upon
the faith and resources of the Nation" The
following is the record of the amount of Con-
federate paper required, Oh the 1st' 10th and
goth of each month, to purchase 500 in
gold or It's equivalent in goods:

ANOTgFg SECREr TREATY


The rlmors in relation to the incorporation
of the Turkish dependency of Tunis with the
French province of Algeria have been re-
peated with increased emphasis. The ex-
PLANTATION offered is that by this diplo-
matte scheme the entente cOrdiate between
Great Britain and France will be re-
stored and a barrier will be raised against
Italian ambition. On other grounds than these
we are inclined to believe that there may be
basis of fact for these rumOrs. The French
have never set their hearts upon the aequlsl-
ton of outlying provinces, and since the dis
astrous war with Germany they have chung to
the policy of nOn-intervention in foreign at-
fairs but vanity of the national traits, and
while inactiOn outside their own frontiers has
been safe and prudent course they have longed
to make dash in some direction. and to re-
gain their prestige in Europe. They are rest
less under the imputation that their influence
on the Continent has declined, and are
anxious to assert themselves. They may not
have any yearning for foreign cOnquests; they
certainly have no marked talent for colonial
ton but they are still proud and sensitive.
The Republican leaders are sagaciOus. They
know what the National instinct is, and real
ze that the new institutions will soon lose
their present popularity if the voice of tho
Government is never heard IN European coun-
ellis. This new protectOrate may not be a
brilliant diplomatic device, but it would
allay the rawness of national irritation. The
present Ministry, moreover are filling gap
in French politics, and like every compromise
Cabinet are anxious to prOlong the transition
period; and a success of this kind would
be a happy stroke. On the other hand, the
British Cabinet would have much to gain.
Mr.. Gladstone and the Liberal leaders have
asserted that the friendship of France has
been alenated from England owing to the
cession of Cyprus and the criticisms of M.
Gambetta's journal have been regarded as
ominOus warnings. The Tunlsian Convention,
if there be such treaty under seal, would
be a convincing proof that the two Cabinets
have acted in concert throughout the recent
negotiations. There are, therefore. strong
grounds for believing that these significant
rumors are something more than boulevard
gossip.
Ii must not be forgotten, moreover, that
a third treaty was signed in London on the
last day of May. Marvin, the copyist, who
sold the AnglO-Russian memorandum to
The Globe, saw this secret engagement,
and was so impressed with its importance
that he did not venture to violate his trust.
The qualified denial of Sir Stafford Northcote,
in the House of Commons, was virtually
an admission that there was secret
compact with some Government that had
not yet seen the light British diplomacy has
come to have deep pocket in these days,
and it is not strange that Mr.. Lowe, with
bated breath, asks the Government how many
more treaties there are.

Ii is peculiarly interesting to compare this
record with the dates of important victories
or defeats. AT times, when great quantities
of paper were poured out, and prices had not
vet adjusted themselves to the new conditions,
the changes were not attributable to the for
tunes of war. Victories and defeats at the
ballot-box also have their record here. When
the Copperheads prevailed In November, 1862,
the price of Confederate money Immediately
advanced one third. But most of the fluctu-
atoms were due TO military events. People
reasoned that Confederate defeat meant absO-
lutely worthless paper, but If the COnted-
eracy should prevail it might pay something
some time. AS a rule, mere delay and pro-
loDgatiOn of the struggle naturally caused de-
probation, because every person sensible
enough to have money knew that the faith
land resources" of the COnfederacy were
steadily wearing away. The investment of
Port Hudson and Vicksburg sent gold from
$50 to AGO. their capture and the battle OF
Gettysburg from $40 to 1000, and the In
vestnent of Charleston lifted the price to
1,5O0. When Union armies were repulsed in
September aud October the price dropped to
1000, but few victories raised it again to
], $50 in December The result of Sherman's
raids which were supposed to have some
larger object, dropped the price from 1900
TO 1900 AS soon as Grant assaied Lee
in the Wilderness, it went up to 1000 again,
but dropped to 1, 700 during the weary months
when he was held in check, while Early APP
peaFed between Baltimore and Washington.
Then Sherman penetrated to Atlanta, and the
price went TO 2, 600, ana Farragut passed the
outer forts at Mobile, and 1t went to 5000.
Presently Grant met severe repulses before
Petersburg, and Sherman paused at Atlanta,
and Confederate victories were gained in the
Valley and other quarters, and for the last
time hope revived, and the price dropped to
2,20O. Sherman reached Savannah in Deem
Der, and gold reached 2,750. From that time
forward, every month brought Union victories
and new advances in the price of gold.

The voice OF the bulldozer swells louder and

TO counties like Edgefeld, but is brazen and un-
bushing even in Charleston itself. The Neos and
Courier. the ablest newspaper in the State, and tho
Jealous and devoted organ Of Governor Hampton,
is using language like this: The sentiment of the
State IS that the negroes shall not be molested 50

by reason of the leniency with which they have
