The snarling British.

LONDON, December 25.-The Times read
lily admits the Nicaraguan treaty should
be judged in America without reference
to English interests. but England, it says,
holds position of almost impregnable
strength to protest against the policy of
violating the treaty rights covered by
the Clayton-Bulwer treaty. The Times
believes the better class of Americans
will not favor the scheme, but it is rash
to predict the result in Congress. 1t is
possible to construct and manage the
canal according to the ayton-Bulwer
treaty while giving America ample
security by peeuniary or other interest
in the work, but it would be doubtful
then. whether plan could be prepared
pleasing the American people. 1t is
England's duty to preserve the freedom
of international trade.

John RObinsOn's Circus.

On Tuesday last, old John Robinson
with his 10 great shows made his appear
ance here, and from daylight until 10
o'clock, dense crowd of people poured
into towu, in every style and variety of
vehicle, so that at that time it was scarce
ly possibly to move on Main, court and
commono streets, and it was acknowledge
ed by all that it was the largest crowd
shat has been in Woodstock since the war
with but one exception. The street par
ade moved promptly at $50 o'clock, and
was without doubt the very finest ever
on our streets and it was hugely enjoyed
by the crowd who cheered its many at
fractions Justify, from its start until its
close.
Of the many attractions in the manage
RE we will notice the following interest
ing specimens 4Asiatic and African
Elephants, horned and 3 eyed Bull, a
freak ofnature from Wisconsin, the Sacred
Cow of India, Australian Oustriches, Gil
raft. the immense horse # inches high,
steer over 6 feet high and weighing over
5000 pounds, the little cow scarcely high
er than your knee, Persian Sheep, Brazil
liam Jaguar, African lion and lioness, pair
of spotted and laughing Hyenas, 2 horned
African Eland, Double horned white Rhl-
noceros, Pelicans, white Llama from Pert
from which the beautiful Alpaca shawl
are made, pair Burmese cattle, the SlOtl
Bear of South America, flat tailed shee
from Australia, white Fallow Deer iron
South Europe, Ant Eater, the King Critic
Nellions from the Andes, Cage of Maccav
Cockatoes, the African Lynx, Blood suck
ing Vampires from East Indies, cage 0
performing Monkeys, Zebra, Alligator
the Yak from Thebet, and many other in
teresting specimens too numerous to b.
mentioned, which must be seen to be ap'
preciated.
The Tattoed woman was another inter
esting spectacle, with her body entirel !
covered with birds, animals and all kind
of grolesque and interesting figures.
Then came the circus with all of
bewildering attractions, which were simul
taneously performed in two rings an
elevated stage, that the eye was conseant
ly strained and turned from ring to stag
and stage to ring to see if all could b
seen, but it was useless, for it was in
possible.
But the greatest attraction of the eircu
was the jesting and absured performanc
of John Lowlow the clown, who kept tn
vast audience in consistent Laughter by hi
whimsical sayings and grOtesque contol
tions and his performance throughout Wa
: simply inimitable.
: Taken all in all the show was the be-
t that was ever in Woodstock and we
speak for them a generous welcome whei
Q ever they will visit us.

The Industrious Sheriff.

In modern times there lived tease,
A second Milton fond of ease;
Who tried his cOuntrymen to please,
As Sheriff of the county wide,
lie rested well both night and day
While serving warrants without delay,
And often towards his home would stray
And oft to Riverside.
Unlike his predecessor old
This modern lord so very bold
A thousand various stories told
Romantic, hard to realize.
He and the poet differed wide
The poet blnd-ho Argus-eyed
With latest news he loved to ride
Back and forth for exercise.
With rarest eloquence divine
And honeyed accents mixed with brine
lie talked of the time when the moon
would shine,
OF drugs and almanacs.
lie spoke of every drug that serves
In time of war to quiet nerves
And thus our peace Of mind preserves
Restraining maniacs.
Mystical gravity sat on his brow
As in saddencd tones he told them how
The detective force was working now
Secretly in Woodstock,
His audience listened: increasing dread
Der every anxious countenance spread
"Only pistols and collins" they family
said
Could counterfeit the shock.
