a very discOuraglng report has Is
sued from the navy yard. 1t is to the
effect that the Tallapoosa is to be raised
and repaired. The ratio, under the
Robcsonian system which Mr.. Chan
der perpctuates, Of the cost Of repairs
to the original cost Of construction has
been such that the cheapest thing that
could be done in the matter of Mr..
Chambers yacht would be to blow up
the hull and take the smoke stack to
John Roach to be repaired. He could
put new Talapoosa to it at less cost
and to greater advantage than would
be implied in any scheme of rehabilita-
ton that could be applied to the dam
aged vessel. Besides, the restoration
Of the Tallapoosa would involve a job
like that which discouraged the cooper,
who protesting to repair barrels at the
uniform vote of a dollar apiece, was
promptly visited by customer who III

Z ago we heard of the gigantic

animal when they walked about created
earthquakes which Byron would have
called young" The cyclones which
have ragged lately in Alabama, Ohio,
and Indiana recall these prodigies of
nature, the great earth-shaking beast,
and tho gigantic meteoric stone. What
a terrible scene must nature have pre-
sented when whole forests were up
rooted, literally sat one blow" of the
wild west wind. In Tennessee train

over astonished Alabama, n baby flew
for several miles, "but escaped I'M

age, realized the widest dreams of tho
Aeronautic society, must be meant for
remarkable destinies. 1t is pleasant
to think of the emotions of tho parents,
who saw, perhaps, their first disappear
on the wings OF tho whirlwind; to pict-
uro the establishment of tho strangers
among whom the babe alighted; to re-
ilect on the advertisements in tho agony

An extraordinary story is told in En-.

death, dancing with ali intimate friend,
lady OF Danish birth, of great per-
sonal beauty, and the wife of an Eng.
lish peer. he was rallied by her upon
his unwontcd abstraction. His answer
was that his sister Alice had come to
him in the night, warned him of an ap-
preaching calamity, and told him not
to trouble, for all would soon be well.
The royal duke, like his mother, the
Queen, seems TO have accepted super
natural visitations as real, and lie told
the lady he would prefer if anything
happened to him, to have military
funeral. Her ladyship, the recipient
OF these condolences, wrote letter to
q high court official, telling him the
story, and he laid her communication
before her Majesty. At once tho Queen
ordered her dead sons desires, express
ed in life, to be fuliilled. Hence that
change at tho last moment, which led

trance upon public life, in resistance to

late and hall-doubting convert since he

devotion to it. Blaine and Logan have

1t is beautiful to see the oxactltudo
with which an adept will throw tho
lasso from or to any point over either
shoulder, behind or in front. There
IS no credit in catching i bull by

by them; but considerable skill is re-
quired to pitch the moose Just in front

indeed he is often inferior in weight.
1t is considered disgraceful to have
to loosen the lasso, and to let the bull
carry it off with him. A good hand at
it will catch BY either leg alone bull

difficult feat Of all il 10 lasso him

doubled up under him. Usually the
moose slips oil, and nothing happens;
but if it be thrown precisely NJ the |
right instant, his hind-legs arc pinned
tight to his belly, and he is brought to
a standstill in the position Of sitting
dog, looking indescribably silly in such |
IN unwonted position. These and
other feat. of lassoing are seen at their
best at hacienda, on tho occasion of
the annual heyralerO, when the young
bulls are driven in from the plains,
thrown down, and marked with red
hot iron with the initials of their pro-
prietors' names. Friends and neigh
bors come together from afar, and vie

terity and craftsmanship.

In His Wife's Pocket.

A fire broke out in n dwelling house
the other night, and after the man and
his vito had safely reached the street
the latter said that there was $50 in
the pocket of her dress, which was
hanging in second-story back room.
"Hll 60 for it," said the husband,
and he plunged into tho burning build
ing.
The flames ragged furiously, and the
man did not return. At the expiration
Of an hour the fire was extinguished
and the back building caved. Firemen
CROPPED their way up the rear stairs
through water and binding smoke,
and found the man in the closet still
fumbling n. his wile's dress, looking
for the money.
He was nearly suil'ocated with smoke
but had strength enough to say that he
thought he would have found tho pock-
ct inside Of two hours. 1t never occur
