A Sly Old Fish.

A gentleman in the Central Provinces
of India possesses a garden in the centre
of which there is huge well-a we'll
more like a small deep tank than any-
thing else. On sunny day, when the
water is clear, a huge old fish, more than
80 pounds in weight, may he seen bask-
ing in the sun, or sleeping in the shade.
There is nearly twenty. five feet Of water
in the well as rule, but in the extreme
hot weather it has been known to,sink
to four feet. When the water is vervF
low, the. owner. Of tbs. we'll has done--hiss
best, year after year, to capture the FISH,,
but,he has never been abs to e9ectJMsf
purpose, either with, line or net 1t ap-
pears that Fifteen years ago, the fish was q,
hooked, bnt somehow, after a desperate
struggle he broke loose; ;,silice which time
he has ouriously learned knack of sud-
denly disappearing whenever the we'll is
about to "be dragged Two years 'ayo'
the water in the we'll fell unusually low,
and the owner determined, to have it
emptied, both for the purpos4 of cleansing =,
the well, and also to satisfy his curiosity (
as to the hiding place of the fish,. This
was found to be small cave, with o ,,
smaller hole as entrance Upon the
well being enptied, the fish was allowed
to remain in his ingeniously adopted
sanctum, after having been carefully in
spected by the owner OF the place and
his friends. The fish is still to b. seen
in the well; he is a, great pet, and is
easily recognizable because of his hinge
size, and by means Of a remarks BILE pale
yellow scar he bears On his back. "He
is a'laky, good hatured animal" said my
informant, q';and only once during the J

Ing selected a peculiarly sentimental aria

The Herat Question.

LONDON, FEBRUARY l0.-rhe Times in
a leader says; Sir Stafford Northcote in
his statement in the House OF Commons
in regard to Herat admits that the sub
ject has been considered, although no
agIeement has been come to. Thus
when the necessary allowance
for the official reserve Is
made, it will be seen that the answers
given on behalf OF the government are
not inconsistent with the announcement
that the British representative at Te-
herman had been instructed to release
Persia from the treaty obligation in
regard 10 Herat, the material
accuracy of which We still main
tain. Ii, as we may assume, Persia
has asked 10 be relieved from the treaty
OF 1857 regarding lierat, the request
could only be granted subject to certain
conditions springng out OF the altered
circumstances, butwe have good reason
to believe that subject to these cOndi-
tons the Government has expressed its
readiness to assist Persia in the occupa-
uuI OF Herat.
