Andres PronhetIc Poem.

During ithe years l779 and 1880 Andre
was on duty in New York and took a.
leading part in the social life of that
city. he accompanied Sir Henry Gin
ton at the capture of Stony Point, June
], l779, aud wrote as aid -de-camp unon
the glacis of Fort Lafayette the terms of
capitulation conceded to the garrison
He kept careful diary and frequently
wrote squibs in prose and verse for the
loyallst papers, and in August, 1880,
composed at Ellzabethtown burlesque
poem entitled The Cow Chase" in
three cantos, amounting to seventy
quatrains. The subject was the attack
made by General Wayne upon a block
house near Bulls Ferry, two or three
miles below Fort Lee, in order to drive
in some cattle from Bergen Neck. By a
singular coincidence the last canto of
this poem was printed in Rivington's
Gazette, September %, 1880, the dav of
the poets capture at Tarrytown. The
last stanza is as follows:
And now I've closed my epic strain,
tremble as 1 show it,
Lest this same warrior drover, Wayne.
Should ever catch the poet.
1t happened, singularly enough. that
General Wayne WAS the commander OF
the post ut Tappan at the time Of Andres
execution. Tne original of the Cow
Chase," In Andres autograph, is still
preserved, and underneath the above
quoted lines an American pen has added
the commentary:
When the epic strain was sung,
The poet by the neck was hung

Thanks.

The following public expression OF
gratitude was recently inserted by a
Saxon farmer and his wife in the col
umns ofa German newspaper: Thanks,
most heartfelt thanks, to all those who,
upon hearing OF our misfortune on Mon
day, August l6, when a sudden flash OF
lightning felled our two COWS and she :
caifto the earth, at once rushed to our as
sistance. Thanks more especially to the
master butchers, Messrs. Thomas, Rel
chel and Fischer, who kindly slaugh-
tered the dying animals on the spot.
thus preserving as from the cruel loss
of finding the Inflated beasts unfit for
human consumption. Thanks, finally
too, to all those who speedily came from
far and near, and bought up the meat
with such avidity that by five in the
afternoon there was not scrap left.
May heaven mercitully protect them and
us all against any similar terror and
calamity in future, and bless them
thousandfold Ior the truly extraordi-
nary sympathy they have shown us

That branch OF chemistry called per-
fumery Is n new industry on this coast.
but with the ample facilities here for its
manufacture IL will become in time of
very great Importance. The extensive
flower farms in the neighborhood of
Nice, Grasse, Montpelier and Cannes, in
France; Adrianople, Broussa and Uslak,
in Turkey, and Micham, in England,
in measure indicate its Importance in
the world. In the East varieties of
herbs are grown that are used to con-
siderable extent in pharmacy, but the
planting of flowers by the acre for per-
fumery purposes is unknown in this
country. The perfumery manufactured
here is from the produce of flowers inn
ported from Europe, and comes here in
the shape of fat or sort of tallow.
There is only one firm in this city en-
gagged in its manufacture at present, and
this establishment produces an average
of 100 gross of bottles per week, though
the production varies with the demand.
1t is entirely for home consumption,
though there was recently opened q
small export trade with Mexico.
Towers are not used here in their
natural state, as they are not to be had.
Meth r could they very well be inn
ported in their natural condition, on
account of the expense attending, and,
moreover, in their transportation a
large percentage of their fragrance
would be lost. There is no reason why
the cultivation of flowers, flower-iarm
ing proper, could not be made an i'm
portant industry here. There is no one
engaged in it at present, and it might
very well be introduced. Wherever the
raw material is to be obtained profit
ably, there manufactures spring up,
and nowhere do flowers grow more lux
uriantly than in this State. To convey
an idea of the extent of the manufacture
OF periumery it may be said that British
India and Europe consume annually, at
the very lowest estimate, $50. 900 gal
Ions of perfumed spirits. The large
perfumers of Grasse and Paris employ
annually in their manufactures 10000
pounds of rose blossoms, 0,O0O pounds
cassia flowers, $4,000 pounds rose leaves.
$4,000 pounds jasmine, 10000 pounds
vio4ets, 90. 600 pounds tube roses, 90, 600
pounds lilacs, beside great quantities of
rosemary, mince, lemon, citron, thyme
and many odorous plants. The guam
tlty of odoriferous substances used in
this way is certainly very great. and be-
yond the conception of most people. -

To give pain is the tyranny, to make
happy the true empire of beauty.
Those days are lost in which we do
no good; those more than lost in which
we do evil.
An acorn cannot make much head
way in hower-pot.
Take away the the self-conceited and
there will be elbow room in the world.
Kindness is slowed away in the heart,
like rose leaves in drawer, to sweeten
every object around.
It is not the number of facts he
knows, but how much of fact he is
himself, that proves the man.
Do that which is right. The respect
of mankind will follow; or, if it does
not, you will be able to do without it.
Falsehood, like poison, will generally
be rejected when administered alone (;
but when Blended with wholesome in
gradients. may be swallowed unper-
ceived.
While ten men watch for chances,
one man makes chances; while ten men
wait for something to turn up, 'one turns
something up; so, while ten fail, one
succeeds and is called a man of luck.
A medical authority says: Laughter
is one of the greatest helps to digestion,
and that the custom of our forefathers
OF exciting 1t at the table by testers and
buffoons was founded on true medical
principles.
Every man who expects to get q for
tune without earning it grumbles at the
bad luck which persistently follows
some people, while the man who works
hard and saves a little every year makes
his own good luck and enjoys it.
No man knows, at his first entrance
upon any sin, how far it may carry
him, and where it will stop; the com
mission of sin being generally like the
pouring out of water, which, when once
poured out, knows no other bounds but
to run as far as it can.
Some people are moro influenced by
he fear of being found out than by the
fact that a thing is in itself wrong.
They would not for worlds become
active members of the band of Forty
Thieves, but if you judge by their con-
duct, you are Convinced that they have
been voted in as honorary members and
accepted the position.

A SuperstitIous Composer.

Speaking of the late JACQUES Offen-
bach, the composer, the New York Sun
says: Whoever has heard his operas
may guess what the man himself was.
Superstition and cowardice were promi-
nent features of his character. He was
a great gambler at the roulette, his
tavorite number being from supersti-
tion-the thirteen. One evening at Spa
the number came seven times, and o.
tenbach broke the bank. He had a Ter
rible dread of the sea. Before he could
be induced to cross the ocean on bis wav
to America, he spent long, sleepless
nights. AS he himself writes in his book,
he dared not go to sleep, lest on awak-
ing he should not be sble to command a
smile" He was in the position uf the
poor fellow in the fable whom the king
had ordered to teach his ass to read
under penalty of being hanged. The
mighty dollar, however, prevailed over
his anxieties, and he embarked on the
Canada. One night the steamer SUD
denly stopped to cool her engines. He
started out OF his sleep. He Imagined at
once that the vessel had struck against a
rock and was rapidly sinking. Offen-
bach in his night garment, but with his
eyeglasses upon his huge nose, rushed
on deck pleading for life. The efforts
OF the captain and Of all the passengers
were required to persuade him that there
was nc danger.

Elephants.

The Rev. Mr.. Collins, naturalist,
twenty-five years resident in Ceylon,
says that elephants there live about 1870
years, and come of age" at forty.
There are three sizes of them in the
same herds, and when they are young
the size that they will attain is pretty
nearly known by the number of their
toes. Those which grow to the largest
size have eighteen toes, five IN each of
the two fore feet. and four oil each of
the hind ones. Those which grow to n
medium size have seventeen toes, five
on each of the fore feet, and four on one
hind foot and three on the other. The
least size of elephant has sixteen toes,
tive on each fore foot, and three on each
hind foot. No Singhalese elephant has
a fewer number than sixteen toes. The
mahout, or elephant driver, rules his
elephant by means of an iron hook, with
which he touches most sensitive part
behind the ear, which causes the most
unruly elephant to become submissive.
When Mr.. Collins was in Handy. an
elephant which had killed his keeper,
and which had been shot in the head
before it could be captured, had to un-
dergo the operation of having the bullet
extracted. which was performed bv the
native doctors, the elephant living
quietly down while the mahout kept his
hook on this sensitive part. The ele-
phant drivers are drunken set of men,
and sometimes, while drunk, will treat
their charge numerically, and the ele-
phant itself is an animal which bears
grudges-the eresult being that nearly all
elepbant keepers are soope~ or later
killed.

HydrOphObia from a Wolf Rite.

A case of hydrophobia resulting from
the bite of mad wolf has been brought
to the notice of q Pittsburg Chronicle
representative who spent few DAYS in
Washington county, Pa. In the spring
OF l795-nearly one hundred years ago =
Mr.. Zachariah Rankin lived in Mt
Pleasant township. One morning he
heard noise in the hog pen, and on
going to it discovered mad wolf in the
act OF devouring small pigs. The infuri-
ated animal sprang at him, and sunk its
teeth in his left side, high up. Instantly
Rankin brought his powerful arms
down upon the neck of the beast, and
held it as if in a vice until his wife
reached him with large butcher knife.
He then disembowled the woif, and un
der the care OF physician the wound in
the side of the injured man soon healed.
One evening in the succeeding fall, Ram
kin was suddenly seized with hydro
phobia, and his contorUions and agoniz-
ing shrieks paralyzed bis father and
brothers so that tn would not 90 near
his bedside. Two or three physicians
attended him, but before morning he
was corpse, after night of the most
intense suffering.

He Immediately awoke the captain,

1t is needless to say the captain got
up. Horses were hitchel in quietly.
and the battery withdrew from between

A Lady in the Matter.

That woman's wit is often superior
to mans wisdom" was convincingly
proved in circumstance that occurred
in this city recently. 1t appears that
Mr.. Ludwig Schwarzler, a widely
known Grocer on Station Road, suffered
with very painful rheumatic headache
to such degree, that he was obliged to
seek the aid of physician. ALI medi-
cines he used were of no avail. This
induced Mrs. Schwarzler to buy st.
Jacobs Oil. She procured a bottle for
her. husband. With the second appli-
cation he found relief. The pain left
him, and he is as well as ever again. A
remedy acting as promptly es this GER
tainly deserves universal patronage.
