THE eALATEA's MONKEY DEAD.
The wonderfully Intelligent Pct of Lieut.

The Wonderfully Intelligent Pct of Lieut..
and Mrs. HEM.
The pennant of the British cutter Galatea,
in winter quarters at South Brooklyn,
drooped moarnfully at half mast the other
day. Peggy, the yet Of the master, mistress
skipper and crew of the white hulled racer,
was dead. Peggy was female whose species
has been immortalized by Darwin. Capt.
Daniel Bradford, of the Galatea, said he be-
ieved Peggy exemplifed the truth of theory
opposed to Darwin's-that the monkey de-
scended from man. He thinks Peggy de-
scended few pegs and then hove to-
''All that the creature wanted to make her
human" said the black bearded British sailor,
"was the English language. She could learn
almost anything but that She had Ian
guac of her own that we couldn't under
stand, which shows how dull VIC are. but sho
understood our language, although she
couldn't talk it.n
Peggy died at noon in the cabin of the
cutter. She was i'll about six hours. Capt.
Bradford wrapped the body up in tho Union
Jack, and made preparations for burial.
Le got four shippers Of yachts lying in the
basin to act as pail bearers. They carried
the body to the head Of the pier, where
grave had been made. Peggy was lowered
into the grave and the captain put over it @
little slab of pure white marble.
Peggy was born in Malta about three and
half years ago. Sho was purchased from
one of the natives CT Malta by the mate Of
the schooner yacht Shamrock, and thus had
Irish blood in her veins. The mate Of the
Shamrock took her TO Southampton, where
Capt. Bradford, at Mrs. Henn's request,
bought her aud took her to tho Galatea.
Peggy could pull on q hulynrd like trained
sailor, and she always helped the crew to
make and lower soil. Shc manifested n great
interest in tho cutters races. When the
Galntea slipped ahead Of her rivals Peggy
would run out on the bowsprit and jump up
end down, and chatter as il she had gone
mad. Capt. Bradford said there would be
mourning in England when the Galateas
crew over there heard that Peggy was dead

A drove Of 100 hogs that were being driven
through Allegheny became frightened and
stampeded. About dozen ran into drug
store bleeding and covered with mud. Two
ladies who were waiting for prescriptions
,screamed with fear. Ono OF them sprang on
the counter and the other clambered upon
the soda fountain. After upsetting every
article OF furniture in the store, the fattest OF
the aiFrighted hogs tried to get behind the
prescription counter and overturned tho stove
The stove is heated by natural gas, and when
it was upset the pipe was broken and sheet
of Aame shot up almost to the ceiling. A
disastrous conhagration would have been the
result but for the prompt action OF the pro-
prietor. who turned OFF the gas. Two Of the
hogs were badly burned. The owners Of the
swine werc compelled to carry them out

messed by t. rider on the Blackwatcr road on
Thursday last in the form Of cunning party
composed Of both ladies and gentlemen. The

young men at their sides. Each face heamed
with delight as they held aloft the string of
partridges SO lately brought low. The gen

autumn leaves and bright red berries guth'
cred from the woods near by, and US they
gayly tramped along, followed by the beaut''
