SIDE SHOWS IN QUEEN ANNE's TIME.

We may smile at the following list of
wild beasts on show, but we must recollect
that it is not so very long since we were
without geological gardens, and the only
wild animals to be seen were the lions, ETC.,
in the Tower, the collection In Exeter
Change, and the travelling menageries,
which, indeed, are even now the only
means by which the larger proportion of
people in this country can have practical
illustration of natural history. First let
us take The old she dromedary, lately
arrived from Tartary, and her young one;
they are headed like horse, eyed like an
OK, nosed like deer, cloven-lipt like
hare, also neck'd like swan, taild like
mule, cloven- footed like cow" "The
noble peccary which is very much admir'd
by the learned. The Jack Call, the lions
lions prey. A small Egyptian panther
spotted like a leopard. A strange
monstrous creature, brought from the coast
of Brazil, having head like child, legs
and arms very wonderful, with long tail
like serpent, wherewith he feeds himself
as an elephant doth with his trunk"
dies, male and female, being the admira-
kingdom. Also, little marmoset from
the East Indies, which, by great deal of
pains, is now brought to that perfection
that no creature of his kind ever performed
the like; he exercises by the word of COM
mand he also dances with two naked
swords, and performs several other pretty
fancies. Likewise noble civit cat from
Guinny, which is admired for its beauty
and that incompatible scent which per-
fumes the whole place. Also muntosh
from Rusty, being very wonderfully
marked. Also a helliscope from Angler,
being the beautifuls creature in all the
world speckled like a leopard" A mon
key is described as wild hairy man from
Bengal; it danced on a rope, drank a glass
of ale, and "smoaks pipe of tobacco as
well as any Christian. This noble crea-
ture filings a strapader," etc. There was
also wonderful animal, the "man teger,
lately brought from the East Indies, the
like never seen before in England, it being
of seven several colors, from the head
downwards resembling a man, its fore
parts clean and his hinder parts all hairy,
having long head of hair, and teeth two
or three inches long takes glass of ale
in his hand like Christian, and drinks
it" There was leopard, "a beast of
excellent beauty, presented to an English
merchant IN Turkey, by the King of the
Arabs, as a particular mark of favor for
eminent service performed, who for the
maintenance of it In its voyage from
Aleppo, gave 100 of the best and latest
fowls. - All the Year Round.

RESOURCES OF NORTH CAROLINA
North Carolina, like Virginia, lies in ter
raced slopes, from the highest ranges OF
the Appalachian chain to the salt marshes
of the seacoast, and is also, like the neigh
boring State, usually divided into belts of
the same names Tidewater, the Middle
County, Piedmont and the Blue Ridge.
In geology and productions, the belts cor
respond with those in Virginia, but the
climate of North Carolina ranges about 10
degrees higher at any given altitude. There
has always been a popular belief in the
North that this State was poor IN natural
resources. But this is not so. Mineralo-
gists of late years make pilgrimages to her
mountains as to treasure. house of riches,
and shrewd Northern capitalists since 1874
have been investing largely in her timber
and mineral lands. In the Blue Ridge
belt there are stores of gold, silver, iron,
copper and marble which, Professor King
reports, Sc seems limitless )" while Prof,
Overman declares that the gold mines in
this district, under proper management,
would yield more than those of California.
The Catawba grape is anative of this section,
and a hundred other varieties of native
grapes have been found, many of them
superior to the Catawba There are In the
highlands no potato bugs, mosquitoes or
chinchbugs; but the plague of the country
is ieas.

HEATING BY FRICTION.

a Boston gentleman has invented a sim
pie device which, if its present promises
are realized, ought to work a revolution IL
methods of heating. 1t is nothing less
than an invention to use friction as prac
teal means of producing heat. At the
time of the Ashtabula horror, when sc
many persons were burned to death by the
wrecked cars catching fire from the stove,
Webster Wells, then professor of mathe-
MATES at the Massachusetts Institute Of
Technology, began to consider the problem
of heating cars without fire. He has now
solved it. His invention consists of a
strong iron cylinder, at one end of which,
inside, is fixed plate of hardened iron,
against which, firmly attached to a reyolv-
ing shaft, another plate presses, either
closely or lightly, as required. The cylin-
der is filed with water, and this, heated
by the friction OF the two plates, circulates
through pipes, warming the room through
which they run, just as steam pipes do.
The water is kept in constant circulation
in these pipes, returning to the cylinder to
be heated over again. The water in the
cylinder, which is brought to high degree
of heat in a remarkably short time, keeps
the plates fabricated, preventing their
wearing away at rapid rate. When
worn away, the cost of renewing them is
trihing, and the machine has no compli-
Gated work about it, so that 1t is easily
kept in repair. The power required to run
the machine is so slight that the waste, or
surplus, power of the engines in use Of
running elevators and other machinery in
hundreds of buildings throughout city is
enough for all ordinary purposes. The
machine can be utilized in any place where
power is used. The ordinary sized ma
chine has SO square inches of friction sur
face in its plates, sufficient, it is said, to
heat 10000 cubic feet of space. This re-
quires but half horsepower. A machine
with 225 square inches of friction surface
requires but four horsepower, and would
heat room 60xl00 feet, or containing
l26 600 cubic feet. In railroad cars the
machine is operated by power taken direct
from the wheels, doing away with all dan
ger from fire in case of smash-up. When
the cars are standing still the machine can
be operated by power from the locomotive,
by continuance somewhat like that which
operates the Westinghouse brake. In
mills it is calculated that great saving
can be made, both in fuel and in the rates
of insurance, especially in those run by
water power. The agent of mill where
water power is used estimates that in
twenty years, by the use of this device, a
saving of at least SlS5,000 in fuel alone
could be effected. Prof. Wells is now in
Europe, looking out for his patents there.
The machine has now been in operation in
Boston for seven months. = Boston Herald.

The Paris correspondent of the Daily
Graphic, speaking of Henri Rochefort,
says he is the champion liar of the uni
verse that Eli Perkins is as far beneath
him as ordinary mortsls are beneath Eli,
and that his superiority in this line is so
well established in Paris that since his re-.
turn, when particularly bright genius is
found dead in the Seine or over the char.
coal brazier in his room. the general re-
mark is, "Poor fellow; Rochefort was too
much for him."

A man in Guilford, Conn, who was too
poor to indulge in any luxuries other than
children, was presented by loving but un-

and he sought for some family to adopt
them. Mr.. Clark was rather inclined to
take them, but his good wife thought one
would perhaps be enough. They were
talking It over before their little eight year

f.he Printemps should be rebuilt, not per-

for the commencement OF the next belle
saison. 1t seems they had just laid in a
heavy stock of spring and summer goods,
among which were 500, 900 francs worth of
silks. Many woman's heart has ached
since the fire, to think OF all the laces, silks
and satins unnecessarily destroyed, and
which might as well have been in her pos
session. The loss is estimated at S, 600 GOO
francs, and the different assurances cover
1000, 600, one insurance company alone has
over 5, 600, 600 to pay, and it is supposed
that this experience will cause them all to
urge necessary reforms in the fire system.
