DR.. Fletcher recently delivered an inter.
esting lecture on the Amazon river an d It's
valley. He said, perhaps, all things con-
sidered, the valley of the Amazon, with Its
virgin forests, its mighty rivers, and its
happy cline where eternal summer dwells,
is the most interesting portion of our globe
betwixt Cancer and Capricorn DR..
Fletcher took his audience up the ma
jesic stream which the Tamoyo Indians
called the king of waters, and to which the
civilized world gives the misnomer of the
Amazon or, as in the Portuguese and
Spanish languages, the river OF the ANA
IONS. DR.. Fletcher gave rapid sketch of
the discovery of the river IN 1542, by Orel-
lana, an officer under Gonzalo Pizarro
who descended the river from Peru to the
Atlantic, and encounterIng the Indians
dressed in full war costume thought they
were women-warriors, hence the misnoiaer.
The tabled story of the city of the Ell Do
rauo. or gilded king, was narrated along
with other incidents of history. DR..
Fletcher gave much information concerning
the physical features OF the great valley,
how the trade winds give cons tant supply
of water which fills the vast system OF
rivers. There are more than 20, 900 miles
OF steamboat navigation below and above
all falls. The building of a railroad around
the rapids of the river Madeira gives steam
navigation into the heart of Bolivia The
gentle declivity of the main stream is re-
markable, only an inch to the mile, which,
the lecturer remarked, makes it the finest
steamboat Dvef in the world
The size of the valley is astonishing. 1t
covers two-thirds ef Brazil three-fourths
of Bolivia, two thirds of Peru three.
fourths of Ecquador, and one-third of the
States of Colombia. Its area is
more than twice that of the val
ley of the Mississippi, and is equal
t. that of the United States minus
the states Of California and Oregon, and
Washington Territory. Alfred r. Wal
lace, the English traveller, says that more
people can be supported In the valley of
the Amazon than In any other equal space
upon our globe. The climate is not ex.
treme. In three visits to the Amazon DR..
Fletcher never found the thermometer in
dicating higher than 81 degrees Fahrenheit.
Everything that Can be cultivated in the
tropics can be produced there, while the
spontaneous productions Of this region, in
the shape of India rubber, sars4parilia, lpe-
cacuana, copalva, vanilla, Brazil nuts,
cabinet and dye woods, are inexhaustibIe.
Only the narrow spirit of the Portuguese,
which excluded all other than their own
subjects until within the first quarter OF
this century, kept this region uninhabited.
Ever now that vast valley has not half
million inhabitants, but it is waking up
under the broad policy of the present
emperor.

Prof. Leidy, In company with DIR. Porter
of Easton, Penn, visited In August last
Hartman's cave, near Stroudsvllle, Penn,
on the invitation of ID. IL. Paret of tnat
place, and examined number of interest
ing animal and other remains which were
found there. The cave In partly filed with
bed of clay 10 feet deep, on which rests
a thin layer of stalagmite, and on this
about foot of black, friable earth min
gled with animal and vegetable remains
The cave appears 10 have been too small
to be inhabited by the larger carnivora,
and no large entire bones of them were
found, but about half bushel of fragments
and sphnters of limb bones of smaller and
large animals have been collected, many of
which exhibit marks of having been
gnawed. whether by rodents or small car
nIvora Prof. LeIdy does not assume TO de-
eide. Some OF the splinters are derived
from such large and strong bones that it il
questionable whether even the largest car
nIvora could have produced them, and are
presumed TO be remnants of human feasts
in which the bones were crushed 10 obtain
the marrow. A few of the bones are some
what charred, among them small frag-
ment OF bison's jaw with molar tooth.
Most of the bones are of species still living,
but some of them, as the jaws OF the rem
deer, bison and wood-rab are of animals
no longer belonging TO the fauna of the
state; and few, as The teeth of the Caste
roIdes OhlGnsis and the jaws of O young
peccary, are of extinct animals. None OF
the remains have been identified as posi-
lively pertalnlng to our domestic animals
unless two of the teeth may be those of
fG al or newborn horse. The vegetable
remains include few small fragments or
charcoal and seeds of dogwood, plg-nut
and walnut. Remains OF human WORK
were found-a large stone, celt of hard
brown slate, from tAe bone earth some dis
tance within the cave-fne bone avis,
some of them gnawed; the prong of an
antler, worked SO as to be barbed on one
side; needle of bone resem bling cro-
chet needle, a FISH hook of bone, and a
cone shell, of species found on the west
ern coast of Central America, bored through
the axis as a head.

A. Shrewd Cae.

A gentleman who took a trip into the
country yesterday, when on the plains a
mile from any house, noticed cat, huge
one, almost as large as a fair-sized dog, 1t
was lying upon the ground, its feet upper
most in such way that he had no doubt
that it had fallen victim to some vicious
dog. Around 1t feeding unsuspectingly,
Was a flock OF young birds. The
apparently lifeless cat was within range of
the vision of the observer for some time,
and Just as he was thinking how much
easier it would be for the animal to feign
death and catch bird by deceiving it than
by slipping up to it, he was astonished to
see the Cat suddenly roll Overland grab one
of the feathered tribe that was very near.
The other birds flew away hundred yards
or so and alighted. The cat only made
one or two mouthfuls of the game, and
then crept around to the windward of the
birds, laid itself out again, and once more
successfully played the dead dodge. The
gentleman drove away without seeing how
many birds 1t took to satisfy the feline.
