WOLVES HUNTING BUFFALO.
An Attack Upon an Old Veteran
Bull.
New York Ledger.

new I OK Ledger,
A far-Western traveller gives the fol-
lowing account of an attack 10y wolves
on buffalo, in the days when both
wolves and buffaloes swarmed on the
great Western plains:
During my travels in tfoSe regions
have several times came across such a
gang of these animals surrounding an
old or wounded bull, where it would
seem from appearances that they had
been for several days in attendance, and
at intervals desperately engaged in the
effort to take his life. But a short time
since, as one of my hunting compan-
ions and myself were returning to our
encampment, with our horses loaded
with meat, we discovered at a distance
a huge bull encircled with a gang Of
white wolves.
I'VE rode up as near as we could
without driving them away, and. being
within pistol shot, we had remarkably
good view, where ] sat for few mo-
ments and made sketch i'll my note
book. after which we rode up and gave
the signal for the wolves TO disperse,
which they instantly did, withdrawing
themselves to the distance of fifty or
sixty rods; when we found to our great
surprise that the animal had made des-
perate resistance until his eyes were en-
tirely torn out of his head, the gristle
of his nose was mostly gone. his tongue
was half bitten off, and the skin and
flesh of his legs were torn almost liter
ally into strings.
I'm this tattered and torn condition
the poor old veteran stood bracing up in
the midst of his tormentors, who had
ceased hostilities for few minutes to
enjoy sort of parley, recovering
strength and preparing to resume the
attack in few moments. In this
group were some reclining to
gain breath, while others were
sneaking about and licking their
chops in anxiety for renewal
of the attack; and others, less lucky,
had been crushed to death by the feet
or horns of the bull. l rode nearer to
the pitiable object as he stood bleeding
and trembling before ME. and said to
him: Now is your time, old fellow,
and you had better be Off Though
blind and nearly destroyed, there
seemed evidently to be recognition of
friend in me, as he Strengthened up,
and trembling with excitement rushed
off at full speed upon the prairie in
straight line.
1--WE turned our horses and resumed
our march, and when we had advanced
a mile or more we looked back, and on
our left. where we saw again the ill
fated animal surrounded by his tor
mentors, to whose unsuitable voracity
he unquestionably soon fell victim"

A THEORY.

Why do violins shudder so,
When across them is drawn the bow,
Sob for anguish and wild despair?
Human souls are IMPRISONED there.
Souls are shut in the violins;
They are the souls of Philistines;
But the Philistines. row on row.
Soulless sit, and they do not know.
But they brandish their eyeglasses,
Stare at each others evening dress,
Scrutinize form or brilliant hue,
Say: rs 1t rouge or is it true?
Some one was fiat a semitone,
And how stout the sopranos grown?
Isn't the bass dear? and o,
Do look at Mrs. So and Sor'
Still the musicians play serene,
As though Philistine's had not been,
But their souls in the violins
Mourn OF bitterly for their sins,
Call them wildly and call in pain.
Call them with longing deep and vain,
And with infinite tenderness,
Since they can give them no redress.
Since not one of them is aware,
Here is he and his soul is there,
In the music's d1viuest chord,
Making melody to the Lord.
SO how often IN life and art
Soul and body must dwell apart
Great is the Mss;er's soul no doubt
Twenty PhiIistnes 20 Without
Are we body or are We soul?
Little matter upon the whole.
Human soul in the violin.
