"What think you OF this, Ivan2" said
the prince to his driver.
"Why, don't much like it, prince"
care you afraid of anvth1ng?"
1.-THE wolves have tasted blood, and
the longer you keep firing, the more will
their number increase"
"What do you adviser"
eff you will allow it, prince, I will
slacken the bride of my horse"
"Are you sure of them2'

"And will you answer for us, too"
Ivan made no reply, it being evident
that he did not wish to commit himself.
He slackened the bride, directing at the
same time the heads OF the horses towards
the princes chateau; and the noble
animals feeling themselves as if loosened
from the vehicle, goaded by terror, re-
doubled their speed. The space seemed
literally to become annihilated before
their desperate effort. Ivan urgod them
still further by sharp whistle, while
they at the same time described curve,
which cut off one of the corners of the
horn. Happily, the wolves opened to
let the horses pass, and the hunters were
preparing for further operations, when
the driver exclaimed, "For your
lives, don't frel' They obeyed. The
wolves perplexed by this unexpected
manoeuvre, remained for a moment un-
decided; and during this instant the
trioka gained considerable distance.
When the wolves resumed the pursuit,
it was too late; they coulo not overtake
the vehicle. A quarter of an hour after
wards they were in sight of their chat
eau.
Next moring the prince visited the
scene OF his exploits, when he found the
carcasses of more than two hundred
wolves.

after the train had STATED to leave town.
Then he plunged for the door, about
which several passengers stood, and it
was some time before he could get the
door open, so as to jump off the steps of
the rapidly moving train. The sympa-
thetic passengers stretched their necks
to see it he got off safely, and as luck
would have it, he did, and turned TO
wave his handkerchief at the tar idiot
in the car, who had allowed him to talk
to her when he had nothing to say, and
then to risk his life in doing what he
ought to have done before the train had
started. You can see these people at the
depot any day. As fast as they are
killed fresh representatives rise up to

The Election.

Returns of Tuesdays election received
Thursday seem to give the electoral votes of
California aud Oregon to the Republicans,
though both States are close. Advices from
other States do not materially change
previous reports on the general ticket, but
numerous changes are made on congressman.
making the composition Of the next House
of Representatives very close as between the
parties, with indications favoring small
Republican majority, sufficient to control its
organization and working.
Additional returns from Minnesota contin-
ue to swell the Republican majority, which
it is now estimated will be in the neighbor-
hood of 10000. Dunnell's plurality in the
first district, is estimated at g. 6O0O.while Strait
in the second district, it is estimated, will
have majority of 5000, and Washburn, in the
third, of 5000.
