the view that he should share his prosper

A New Idea of GIadiatorial Fights.
From the Contemporary Review.

From the Contemporary Review.
Gladiators, and not soldiers, loaded
themselves with defensive armor of such
weight, and so calculated to impede their
movements while so completely preserv-
ing all portions OF the body. In general,
there has been a mistaken idea of glad
iatorial fights; they have been looked up
on as always having the character of hu-
man sacrifices, which drew down on them
the anathemas of the fathers of the
church. It was only in Rome, and on
extraordinary occasions, when great ex-
pense was gone to, that certain number
persisted of those unfortunates whose sad
trade it was to fight for popular amuse-
ment. In the provinces, and in ordin-
airy cases, there were fewer human deaths
than in the Spanish bull-fghts of our
own time. Troops of gladiators were
private property; strong, athletic slave
cost dear, and time and attention were
needed to train him; and thus be was, as
it were, precious capital, we'll worthyIo
preservation. Protected by massive ar
NOR, the gladia:ors for the most part
hacked away at each other 80 as to graft
fy the public without serious injury to
themselves, and fought much after the
fashion Of the condottieri of Italy in the
fifteenth century.
The majority of their performances
must greatly have resembled that famous
battle of Pont d. Angliari, where, att r a
fierce fight of five hours, the only victim
was, on falling from horseback, crushed
by the weight of his armor. The CON-
dottieri were stupefed and greatly 1isap
pointed at the Fornova when they saw
the French grendarmaerie take to striking
for good and all. The proprietors OF a
lucus gladi1torSus must have had much
the same sensation when the people gath
cred III the amphithcatre, taking things
in grim earnest and carried aw ~ by the
intoxication of blood, demanded a less
; harmless combat, and insisted on the
death of one of the members Of his band.
On the rare occasions upon which gladia
tors were employed on the battlefield
they proved to be strangely embarrassed
by the weight of their equipments. They
we're easily knocked over, and once on
the ground, could not rise, but remained
at the mercy of the first conner. The COM
panies of crupellari: Of Augustodunum
that julius Sacrovir had engaged to take
part in his revolt presented on the day of
battle mass incapable Of movment, and
the DICTIONARIES demolished them as they
woul d avail, by Ratchet and ak blows,
without their being able te offer any ef-
fective resistance.

SparrOWs Attack and Put to Flight q

Utica Observer.
One mile and forty rods north CT the
beautiful village of Sauquoit resides Mr..
Andrew j. Green: Day before yesterday
he started to walk to the village. Swing
ing along with his wonted stride, and
reaching point within half mile of his
destination bis attention was attracted by
the strange actions Of T. flock of sparrows,
towering down over the sidewalk, flying
rapidly hither and thither in great excite
ment. As be approached them, and went
in their midst, they evinced no fear ofhis
presence, and, instead of flying away on
his entrance among them, they pressed
around him in greater numbers. and al
most Immediately attacked him with
their sharp bills with great fury. At first
he was disposed to treat the attack as a
trivial matter, and attempted to brush
them away with his hands, but the few
thus. displaced were Immediately replaced
by mvriads more, darting, chattering and
piercing him with, their sharp bills, like
'sthe flight of cloud of arrows" Their
immense numbers and persistent charge
was SO great that he was soon thrown to
the ground. Now thoroughly alarmed be
struggled to his feet. Covering his eyes
aAd face with one hand as well as posi-
BILE, he endeavored with the other hand
to rest from the fence at his side a stake
or picket with which to defend himself,
but not succeeding and the wild and in
fariated little worriors still increasing
their attack, he was forced to fight them
again with his hand, when again he was
thrown to the ground. Now really terri,
fed for his life he pulled his coat over his
face and head for protection, regained
his feet and fed for his life, but they did
not pursue him Exhausted and with his
hands bleeding he reached the village,
convinced that he had q narrow escape.

WAS FORMERLY A HEAVY DRINKER,


American trotting horses are in demand
in England. The farmers cry for them.
A Hampshire farmer writes to the London
Agricultural Gazette, and says: II see the
subject of introducing the fast trotting
horses of America is being preached. I
sincerity hope it will not be allowed to
drop. I usually have two nag mares
covered annually, and here in East Hants
there is nothing in sires to be met with
but cart-horses and broken down racers,
or such other leggy brutes. All sorts of.
stocks are being improved except our
nags. It is to be hoped the Americans
will be represented at the great show in
London next year, when I feel sure the
horses will not be allowed to return. /

five guineas towards getting good e1-

Recent explorations show that Arizona,
which has heretofore been regarded as a
sterile and unproductive region, is the
richest mineral region in the world
Humboldt, half century ago, predicted
that there would be mines discovered in
Arizona which would surpass any found
in Mexico, rich as they are. Situated as
it is, says the New York american Er-
change, between the Sierra Nevada Noun
tains on the west, and the Rocky Noun
tains on the east, at the point of intersec-
tion of the great silver veins of each, and
on the richest mineral belts known, and
where the great mineral lodes of Mexico
join those Of the north, analogy would
suggest the richness of the mines were
there no indications on surface.

The local papers of Columbus, Ohio,
have for some days charged that some of the
female attendants at the Central Lunatic
asylum have been guilty of cruel treatment
to patients confided to their care. An investi-
cation by the asylum authorities has shown
that for some months certain attendants have
been in the habit of "ducking" patients for
violation of rules, and as this is violation of
asylum treatment, ten female attendants, resi-
dents of that city, have been discharged, and
the Investigation is still going on. Supt.
Tirestone declares he has only known of this
system of "ducking" for few days, and in

The grapes are brought by the Sacrament
to Valley railroad cars alongside the es-
tablishment, and are taken to the first
floor, where they are assorted and dipped
in composition of chemicals which cuts
the tough pellicle OF the skin, by which
evaporation is more easily effected; they
are put in the driers, where heat is kept
up from 14u to 100 degrees, and are ia
ken out at the top, then they are put for
short time in steam-box, which makes
the stems flexible and enables them to be
packed into layers without breaking the
punches; they are then packed IN GA,

and sent to the storehouse. The loose
raisins are packed up in paper boxes
made expressly for that purpose.
