kicking their devil round the Office be-
cause the TRIBUNE chooses to retain ,
manly independence in refusing to act as a
mere party organ. Our elfn friend, in the
lace OF what we have repeatedly said, eli.
beavers to impress its few readers with the
idea thatthe tribune is independent but in
name. II that wheezy organ ever had an
independent idea blown through its squeak.

refuses to believe in something is noncnity.

any one to show that it has lruckled to anv

IN advocating republican principles, and

carry out those principles, but it is not par.
t'san IN the sense OF carrying its politics
into places that have nothing to do with
politics. In most OF the county Offices we
have advocated the election Of the best
men regardless Of politics, and il the E,.
0"'i"er peases to snecy at the TR1u,,<r for
this, 1t insults not us but the good sense of
the people. For proof Of our position

NATURAL BEAUTY OF NAZARETH.-The
valley of Nazareth is 50 charming that it
has been called paradise on earth. 1t is
full Of flowers and shrubs, and butterflies
and birds. Among the magnificent bios
SONS that in this country grow only in
greenhouses, and the foreign birds, with
their gay, glitterip" feathers, are found our
own loved roses and daisies, our nightin
gales, black birds. thrushcs and larks, fill.
ing the air with their sweet songs; and
even the little homely sparrow and robin
red breast, that we consider SO peculiarly
our own, hop about and chirp gaiy in Pal
estine as here. The people who live in the
"happy valley" are more healthy and Wig
orous than their neighbors, or than people
who live in hot countries usually are. The
fresh air from the hills makes them strong
and how sweet that air must be, passing as
it does over mignonette and roses and many
another flower cherished ia onr gardens
and gathered to perfume our rooms, but
growing there with all the reckless JOY OF
nature There is only one river in the val
ley, little fresh brook dancing down to
the plain below, and here the women, clad
in their pretty dresses. which travellers
tell us were brighter and more picturesque
than those OF their neighbors, as if even in
the matter of costume they were to be best
ofall, came in those days, as they still do,
with their great earthen jars TO draw the
fresh bright water from the WELL and carry
it home to their families.

A WOMAN DUELLIsr.-Iu Russian Po-
land lady recently became her own cham
pion by fighting duel with the man who
had illuminated her. 1t appears he had
offered his hand, which she had refused.
Stupg by her rejection, he set himself to
spoil her good name by spreading false re-
ports about her. Thereupon this plucky
lady declared that duel alone could vindi-
cate her honor, and, refusing the assistance
of several gentlemen who we're anxious to
make her cause their own, she invited her
traducer to ''pistols for two and coffee for
one." There was nothing for the man to
do but accept the challenge. and the com.
batants met in place outside Warsaw.
Both missed their aim. The lady proposed
second shot, but the seconds declared that
full reparation had been made, and she had
to defer to their ruling As for her adversary
he was so moved by her masculine galantry
that he rendered her formal and simple
apology on the spot. She accepted it.

HUNTING WOLVES IN RUSSIA.

To prove how little danger the natives
and dwellers of the Orenburg steppes con-
slider they are in from wolves mag say that
the drivers scarcely ever notice their pres
ence. The kirghesc and Cossacks who
dwell on the Orenburg plains have much of
their best sport in wolf-hunting. Whenever
they wan; to chastise tho brutes for robbing
them of their stock and deyouring fat lamb
or two, they mount their fleet little horses,
ard, armed with heavy clnb, they set out
to hunt down the marauders on the steppes.
This they can easily do when the snow is
deep and not YET firmly frozen over, since
the wolf sinks through the snow at every
step and soon becomes exhausted, until
finally he sits down on his launches i'll the
snow and quietly awaits for the hunter to
kuovk him on the head with his club. In
summer the Kirghese hunt the wolves down
in a similar manner on the steppes, using q
lasso instead Of club. The high prickly
growth Of the praires prevents the brutes
from running far, and they fall an easy prey
to the hunter.
On the Kirghese steppes, whore immense
dro1es of horses are kept, and where kumiss
is an article of export, the wolves have to
be looked after especially in spring time,
when they seek to indemnify themselves for
the severe fast of the winter, and are very
deSirious to get themselves into good condi.
tion again. Foals are then in their prime,
and the wolf is constantly prowling
around the laboon. The horses are, how
ever, always prepared to take care OF
themselves aud to defend the younger mem
hcrs of the community. Tho wolves are
l,,, ,,l. hn of
tack openly. They wait till Il goodly mum
Der of them are together, and the taboon
gets n little scattered. Then they some.
times make rush, bringing on u general
battle. such fight is a splendid sight.
The stations and mares charge down upon
the threatened point, generally putting the
attackers to instant flight. Sometimes a
stray fcal is snapped away, and the moth.
| er, going TO lis defense, also falls q victim.
| If the attack is kept up the mares form II
| circle within which the foals take shelter,
| while others form a solid phnlnnX and
| charge down upon the wolves, tearing them
with their teeth and trampling on them
with their feet. The stations do not fall in.
to the phalanx, but galop about With
streaming tails and erected names, seeming
| to act as generals, trumpeterS and standard
bearers, doing immensely effective work all
over the plain. Their weapons are their
fore feet and their teeth. With one blow
the stallion often kills the enemy or stuDs
him, and then snatching up the body with
his teeth filings it TO The mares, who trample
il out of all shape. Sometimes a stallion
meets his death in such fight, but not of
ten. The Cossacks or Kirghesc are, how
ever, generally on tho watch for such lights,
and then the wolves are easily driven of.
