An Adventure with a Lioness,

A portion of the crew of ship which
was anchored off the coast of India
once went ashore for the purpose Of
cutting some wood, and one of the
sailors, having through some cause be-
come separated from his companions,
was considerably frightened by the ap-
pearance of a huge ioness which he
saw approaching him. Much to his
surprise, however, she did not, on COM
ing up, appear to have any evil designs
on him, but instead crouched at his
feet and looked steadfastly first at his
face and then at o tree some little dis
tance away. For time the man could
not understand this conduct; but pres
emily, On the ioness rising and walking
toward the tree, looking back at him as
she went, he found out what it meant.
Up in the branches of tree was large
baboon with two little lion cubs in its
arms, and it was because Of this that
the lioness was in such trouble. The
difficulty now presented itself of how
to save the cubs, for the sailor was
afraid to climb the tree. So, having
his axe with him, he resolved to cut
down the tree, and this he did, the
lioness watching him most anxiously
during the whole time. When the tree
fell and the three animals with it, the
lioness, it is said, dashed with fury
upon the baboon and destroyed it;
then, having gently caressed her cubs
for some time, she returned to the
sailor, showed her gratitude by fawn-
ing upon him and rubbing her head
fondly against him, and at length car
ried away her offspring, one by one

James Russell Lowell's Little Joke.

A;good illustration Of the partiality
shown to literary persons of reputation
was given some time ago in Boston.
James Russell Lowell, a favorite con-
tributor to the atlantic, and one of the
brightest of all our magazine writer's,
concluded to play a joke upon the pop
ular monthly. He accordingly wrote q
long, clever article, which he called the
Essence of American Humor," and
read it to number of his friends, who
said it was one of the very best Of his
compositions. He employed some one
to copy it and sign it "W. Perry Paine"
and send it to the atlantic with the re-
quest that, as it was maiden effort, the
editor would give an opinion in writing
TO said Paine. He waited fortnight,
but heard nothing from his paper, when,
being in Boston, he dropped into the
office of the atlantic, and, meeting
James T. Field, adroitly turned and
conversation upon humor and remarked
that it was singularso littlewa written
upon the subject. Fields replied, "We
get good deal of manuscript on hu-
NOR, but it is so poor we cannot use it.
! threw into the waste basket the other
day long screed chris Esteemed the
sence of American Humor,' which
should have been styled the Essence OF
Nonsense for more absurd farrago
Of stuff 7 have never seem" Lowell,
much to the surprise of the editor,
bursted into roar Of laughter and in
formed Mr.. Fields of the authorship OF
the article. The editor turned all col
ors and swore it was one of Lowell's
jokes. Indeed it is" responded Lowell,
"and the best one I ever played. ]
never thought highly of my scribling,
but, by Jovel 1 didn't believe it was
the most ridiculous farrago Of stuff you
had ever SEEN"
By way of self-defense Fields de-
clared he did not read the thing, but
that he did not believe that man who
signed his first name with the initial
md the second full could write for the
atlantic. That was about as ingenious
an excuse as he could make for his
partiality, but the story gives q just ides
os how magazines are edited and con
tnbutions regarded Boston Tran
