Some Majestic BruteS.

GFrom the London Times.J
The average visitor to the zooloSical
gardens looks over the fence, sees horn
projecting in sort of oblque vicious
ness out of the door of q shed, says
"Oh! its only bull of some sort" and
passes on. Sometimes, however, he
stops, for the bull, as he calls it, turns
out to be a large buffalo, and in very
bad temper. The truth is that on the
other side of the fence is another "bull, r"
the sacred zebu of India, who is also
very much out of temper, and the AMI
mails being Just able to sniff at each 9TH
er through a chink are tormented by
desire to get into the same enclosure
and fight it out. Nov, neither of them
knows what kind of an animal is on the
other side of the fence. The African
buffalo has never seen an Aslatlc zebu
in all mis- life. But that does not mat
ter to either of them. All they ask for
is no fence between them and no favor.
But as the society has imported these
animals at large expense, and keeps
them at considerable cost, this is the
one boon which the combatlve animals
should never expect TO have granted.
They do not, of course, understand this.
The consequence is that they make their
lives a burden to themselves by buttlng
and prodding at the wooden palings,
under the idea, no doubt, that if they go
on long enough the palings will fall out
and they will then be able to butt and
prod each other. Each In his way is
grand beast-quite apart from the gen.
erous spirit in which they challenge un-
known adversaries-and they represent
together one of the noblest families of
wild animals. They are the descend
ants of the reem, the animal that had
such wide horns that Noah $50 the Tai
mudists say could not get it into the ark,
and had to be drawn behind-and of the
urls, which Julius Ceeser says was only
trife smaller than the elephant. And
to-day they are the brothers of the Amer
lean bison, sc the majestic brutes that
roam in herds which shake the earth,
and of the gigantic gour of the Indian
swamps. It is not true that the latter
snuff up chunks of stone with their
noses, and then discharge them with the
force of catapults at those who attack
them, but it is beyond doubt that they
have no hesitation whatever in 'going
for" anything that stands in front of
them

The English Poor.

In England very little benefit. is ex-
tracted from the present long list of veg
etable substances. Bread and potatoes,
cabbage, and, in agricultural districts,
beans, with little bacon and cheese,
and m TX for the children, almost ex-
haust the list of food attainable by the
working village population. What is
called butchers meat rarely makes its
appearance in the cottage of an agr1cul-
tural laborer, but it is quite certain that
if the humble and wholesome materials
at his disposition were more skillfulIy
treated he would be greatly the better.
In manufacturing towns vast quantities
of food are destroyed rather than con-
sumed, owing to the ignorance of the
women of the most elementary princi-
pies Of cooking. A hastily fire and
frying-pan, "lump" of butter of in
definite size, some bacon and a few
eggs of doubtful freshness compose the
culinary preparations of family earn
ing between e2 and e3 per week.

HealthfnI Stimulation.

Diffusible stimulants, provided they be absolutely
pure are among the most useful medicinal agents
employed by physicians. When the tone of the sys-
tenn is lowering by the depressing influences of dis
ease, or there is inherent want of vigor in the
constitution, they serve to counteract weakening
tendencies, and cheer the mind of the Responding
invalid. But wheD, in the case of Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters, they possess tonic and Alternative
properties their effects are rendered permanent,
and they accomplish trebly beneficial result. The
Bitters not only relieve nervous debility and mental
depression by their healthfuuy stimulative action,
but infuse abiding vgor into the depleted system,
and rectify those internal disturbances which are
the real causes of weakness. The purity and the
whoesomeness of the alcoholic basis of the Biters
greatly in the efficacy of their botanic ingre
dients fact which the completeness of their cura-
tive effects sufficiently demonstrates

self. The density of.population in Lon
don in the most densely peopled parts is
less than the density Of twelve most
crowded sections of Bombay, with a
population of more than 430, 600 people.
These sections have an average popula-
ton of 458.57 per acre. In Bombay the
average of population is about SO per
acre; in London 40. The extreme in
London rises to 222 per acre, whereas
in Bombay it rises to 759. The popula-
ton of the section in which the crowd
ing is double that of the most crowded
divisions of London is equal to more
than 81 per cent. of the total population,
but the area of these sections is only 81
per cent. of the island. In other words,
81 per cent. of the population are
crowded upon 81 per cent. of the sur
face of the land.
