Coaches in the Days Of George Nv.

Hackney coaches were always drawn
by a pair of horses, for the most part
misunderstanding creatures, which
it would have been cruelty to urge To
any speed. though l fancy they were
capable of keeping up their jog-trot for
a considerable time. The drivers were
usually elderly men, attired in stone
colored great coats with many capes. /

chairs waiting for hire near old squares
at the west end of town. but they wero
worn and shabby, though with likeness
enough of their better selves to recall
Hogarth's pictures to mind. There were
stage coaches from certain central points
to the suburbs running several times .

Small chance was there of procuring .
place in the ''last COACH from any sub.
urban district without the preliminary
ceremony of booking it. There was al

one-for the tired wayfarer, and this
was a return chaise." The phrase,
familiar enough fifty and sixty years
ago. has no meaning now, but when
railways were not. and the Weather

An Elephant Whipped by a Man.

One of the cases before the Mayor
yesterday morning was that of Rufus
Reed (cOlored), who vas charged with
an affray with Sells little elephant, and
the facts brought out proved hat the
man whipped the elephant. Reed. who
is a tall, musculor colored man, had
been giving the elephant a few apples,
handing it all except one, which he put
in his vest pocket: While his attention
was turned the elephant reached out its
trunk and, getting hold of Rufus's pock-
ct, tried to pull the apple out, tearing
the vest nearly off before the wearer's
attention was turned to the elephant S
prank.
Selling the elephants trunk (..snoot."
Reed called it), he tried to wrench his
vest and the apple away from it. but
the elephant drew its trunk from Reeds
hand, and swinging it around, gave
Reed a terrible blow on the side of his
head. Reed drew back and felled the
elephant to the ground with his fist, de-
livered over the eye. The elephants
keeper then attacked Reed, and Reed
knocked him down. In the meantime
the elephant had regained its legs and
gave Reed another blow on the side.
Reed was now thoroughly ~exasperated.
and actually knocked the elephant over
on its back, and then left the tent. As
the elephant had left the city and could
not appear in court yesterday, the Mayor
took Reeds statement and let him of
lightly, feeling that the elephant de-
served the flogging.-Charlotte IN. CO.

The Leaves OF q Tree.

In q recent lecture Professor Beal
talked about leaves. Among other
good things he said: As is well
known. q tree can not grow without
leaves. These are put forth every year
and are a continuance for vastly increa-
sing the surface. An oak tree of good
size exposes several acres OF surface to
the cir during the growing season. It
has been estimated that the Washing
ton elm at Cambridge, Mass, not a
very large tree, exposes about five acres
of foliage. if we include both sides of
the leaves. Leaves are more nearly
comparable TO stomacils than 10 lungs.
A leaf is 4 labratDry for assimilating or
manufacturing raw materials into plant
fabric. The cellular structure of the
leaves. wood and bark of 4 tree is a
complicated subject to treat in a pOpu-
lar way. 1t requires 4 vast surface of
leaves to do a little work. BY counting
the leaves on q Seeding oak and esti-
mating the surface on both sides of
each, we can see how many inches are
needed to build up the roots and stem
for the first year. Alter the first year
the old stem of the oak bears no leaves.
1t is dependent on the leaves of the
branches, or its children for support.
A tree is Il sort of community. each
part having its own duties to perform.
The root hairs take up most of the nour-
ishment. The young roots take this to
the larger ones. and they in turn, like
the branches of a river. pour the flood
of crude sap into the trunk, which con-
veys it to the leaves. The assimilated
or digested sap passes from the leaves
to all growing parts of the plant. and
a deposit is made where most needed.
If q branch is much exposed tothe winds,
the base of it has a certain support or
certain amount of nourishment. So with
the trunk of a tree. Ii the base OF 4
branch of the main trunk is much OK
posed to the winds and storms, q much
thicker deposit of food is made there.
The winds give 4 tree exercise, which
seems good to help make it strong. Our
toughest wood comes from trees grow
ing in exposed places. The limbs of a
tree are all the time striving with each
other to see which shall have the most
room and the most sunshine. While
some perish in the attempt. or meet
with only very Indifferent success, the
strongest Of the strong buds survive.

and plunging around in the water. As

feebly, and plunge at once into a discus
sion of his fayorite illusion. One pa

over his eyes and a chicken feather
over his right ear, stated with great
confidence that he = John the Bap-
fist, and had been placed o. the island
by the Almighty as His agent for re-

4 reporter in confidence a ragged
looking letter, tied up with a green
thread, which he said he had that
morning received from President Gar

was Mr.John Jacob Aston, who readily
introduced himself as the great mil

land him on the New York shore. Ma
poleon Bonoparte casually remarked
that the only civilized people on the
face of the globe were Queen Victoria's
relatives. The rest were HottentOts,

an illustration of his theory he pointed
out a gentleman of color who certainly
bore a striking resemblance tC the

thing about him YVES his smile, but that
was sufficient. Coffee said the SUI
