patriotic citizens who have put aside all per-
sonai. selfish considerations in order to strike a
manly. telling blow for municipal reform and

the Tammany campaign is that OF desperate.
terror-stricken band Of plunderers and con-
sprators already convicted and branded before
the world. IL IL a contest between the public
conscience reelected in the reform ticket. and
concentrated rascality entrenched in Tammany

the present struggle. New-York might about as

Peculiarly of the Golden Rod.

Probably great many people who
travel have failed to notice that the
period of blooming of the golden rod
does not begin first in the south and
move northward, but apparently in the
other direction-from north to south.
In some places in northern Vermont
and New Hampshire golden rod OF the
common field and railroad track vari-

golden ROD was much more golden and

in yellowing, apparently, is Cape Cod,

common there, hardly begins to &c

The walrus on Land.

AS might be expected, walrus is
about as helpless on land as a canal
boat. 1t is with no little difficulty,
and much hitching and floundering,
that he drags his huge bulk upon a
sandy shore even with the boosting
that he gets from behind by the break
ers as they roll in and dash against
him. His hind hippers are of little use
on land; and on sand or pebbles, where
his front fiippers do not hold well, the
labor of fioundering forward is SO great
that he never stirs beyond the edge OF
the water, and usually lies with his
body half awash, with the salt spray
dashing over him like torrents of rain.
On solid rock or ice he gets along much
better, and often a herd will spread
several rods back from the waters
edge. The females and younger wal
ruses have far less development OF neck
to cucumber them, and therefore enjoy
more freedom of motion than the old
males, who actually seem great bur-
den unto themselves. These creatures
are strictly social in their habits, and
always go in herds, whether travelling,
feeding, fighting or resting ashore. In
the days before the slaughter OF all
living creatures became ruling pas
sion in the breast of man, the Pacific
species inhabited the whole of Boring
sea and strait in herds which often
contained thousands, and even tens OF
thousands, of individuals. Nicho-

He was a bright, handsome little

have dwelt in continual bliss, in his
picturesque dominions between the
frontiers of Thibet and Hindustan,
dozen years ago. And yet, from an
American boys point of view, he can
not be said to have had much fun.
Asiatic kings are not supposed to play
leap-frog or football, or to swing on
gates; toboggans, bicycles and roller
skates are unknown in Nepaul; and
how is a poor little heather to be happy
without any Fourth of July?
