Anecdotes Of the Horse.

The fidelity Of the horse is favorite theme
OF the naturalist. Frequently, a dog or a cat is
the attachment, probably from the fact that
those are the animals they are chiefly brought in
contact with; but their devotedness to their mas
tiers or attendants. and their gentleness to chill
dren have formed the ground work of hun
dred tales. Youatt mentions many instances
of attachment between horses and animals
other species, such as that of Duncannon, a
Well-known racer, for sheep. which it would
lift into the Manager to share its fodder; but
would permit no one else to modest 1t in any
way. Chillabv, another famous horse, which
only one groom ever dared to approa ;h. had also
favOrte lamb that it loved and tended with
paternal affection.
A wonderful anecdote of affection in horses
Is told by q Monsieur de Boussanelle, and al
though 1t is not an instance of friendship be-
tween animals of opposite tribes it is too appro-
pirate to Our theme to be overlooked. This
gentleman, cavalry officer, mentions that q
morse belonging to his company, being from old
age, unable to eat his hay or chew his oats, for
two months was fed by two horses, one on each
SIDE OF it, who ate from the same Manager.
These two noble creatures drew the hay out of
the rack. chewed'it and put it intact before the
old horse, and did the same with the oats,
which he was then able to eat.
Yonatt. 1T is presumed, is the authority for
an account OF the way in which colt repaid
the kindness and care Of farmers boy who
ted 1t: one day the boy was pursued by an in
furlated bull, and cOntrved to reach ditch and
get into it before it could overtake him. The
bull endeavored to gore him and would, it is
believed. have succeeded, had not the colt come
to his assistance. This grateful little animal
assaulted the bull. screaming so loudly all the
while that some labOrers were attracted to the
spot and rescued the lad from his perilous
condition

A California Dog story.

Was it instinct or grade of intelligence ar-
preaching reason of the higher order, that
moved dog to that strange act in a street
store the other day? His master has (among
other goods valentines for sale, and naturally
the boys OF the street are attracted by those of
the comic order and miss no opportunity to ex-
anime them. The merchant is the owner of a
remarkably fine specimen of the crossed St
Bernard and Newfoundland dog The animal
has had no special training, and had not been
taught to watch or to know ANYTHING about
property ownership but it has been permitted
to visit the store frequently, and has undoubt-
edly noticed that people are entitled to remove
from the establishment whatever q salesman
hands TO them or permits them to lakeland it
may be TeasOnedin the same way that the dog
has worked out to his own satisfaction that
whatever is removed without delivery being
made by the attache of the store is removed Inn
properly. and that all good dogs should resist
all such efforts. Certain 1t Is that the other
day the dog acted upon this line of reasoning if
reason it is when manifested in one of the lower
order OF animals. group of boys came
into the store to examine the valen-
tines displayed on the counters in
tempting array. They were a rather
other customers the merchant fastened towards
the boys. The dog was lying upon the floor near
them. The boys soon concluded that they did
not want to purchase. and were about to retire.
when the dog arose, barred their passage to the
door, and grOwled threateningly. This surprised
the salesman, who had never before known the
animal to show any disposition to attack per-
son without apparent provocation. He accord
lngiy spoke sharply to the dog, and on his still
continuing to menace the boys, and show by his
manner that he was opposed to their departure
from the room, his master ordered him to the
back part Of the store and started to enforce the
order, when he espied package Of valentines
sticking from the pocket Of one of the boys. He
Immediately seized the youngster and searched
him, and as result found that he had stolen
and stored away about his person good supply
of the tempting valentines. On the property
being taken from the boy the dog appeared to be
perfectly satisfied and gave the matter no further
concern. 1t would be q work entirely without
successful results for any one to attempt to con-
vince that merchant that the dog did not know.
when the boy stole the valentines, that he was
stealing, and that it was his duty as faithful
servant OF kind ma ter. to do all IN his power
TO prevent the loss Of his property.-Sacrdm

Artist Life i'm Paris.

The streets and newspapers, says Paris cor.
respondent, continue to be filled with carica-
lures and attacks of Alex. Dumas. This war
Iare probably surprises him. His next new play
VIII feel the power Of these enemies. The truth
is, Dumas has made annually for many wears q
great deal of money by buying and selling pic
lures and curiOsities. and people who have seen
him reap profits to which they think themselves
entitled are irritated with him. His plan for
years has been to visit studios, to examine care
fully the exhibition. He bought the works of
the most skilful, but still obscure artists. He
praised these artists and their work. They
grew in fame. As soon as they became quite
famous. Dumas sold their pictures and pOcketed
1OO. or 200, or 500 per cent on the picture sold.
There is this-and 1t Is great deal-to be said
In Dumas favor. Dumas has spared hundreds
OF young men the long and distressing noyitiate
which almost all artists are obliged to 90
through. An artist said to me q few weeks
since III be dying now at thirtv-six
It's because for years l could not get even
artists these days of starvation. He bought
their pictures when nobody would have them
even as gift. He brought them into the
public eye by the sales he made. He saved these
painters years Of hopeless struggling. IL this no
mean merit? Recall COrOt's life He was more
than sixty before he sold his first picture. No
body would take his pictures as presents Had a
Dumas made COr0t famous at TWENTY-FIVE what
service he had done French art! Fortunately
COrot had 5000 year from his patrimony; but
for this accident he had starved Millet literally
starved: did break down for want of enough to
eat because nobody would give 500 for pic
lures which now readily fetch $4,000 and
$4,000 Had Dumas gone to MilIet's assistance.
