arc translucent to a depth of nearly live hun
dred feet, and shells can be distinctly seen open
ing and closing their valves, anil MX.-nods with
their brilliant colors thickly growing on the
liottom look like a garden of gay flowers. Every
attitude, movement ami stroke of tlic mighty
comliattants was visible in tlie clear water. The
sea was red with the blood that gushed from tlie
deep wounds as tooth and sword were driven
in and drawn out with fearful quickness. The
Ziphias attacked the stomach, the Narwhal
plunged his teeth into the sides, and when the
poor Whale was forced to rise above tlie sur
face. the Fox-Shark would dart into the air and
descending deal such fearful blows upon his
broad hack with his muscular tail. that, had the
light occurcil at night, one might indulge the
fanoy that villainous salt-petrc was playing its
part in tlie contest For several hours the Cap
tain viewed the Combat ami when he left, the
Whale was obviously worsted. Xo doubt be
fore the terrible trio departed to look for Dol
phins and Tunnies, the little tisli might swim
in shoals into his capacious mouth, and then
swim out again.
Tlie author, to whom we arc indebted for
much of the information embodied in this pa
per, states tiiat there is a Narwhal's hom in the
possession of a noble family in Denmark, val
ued at eight hundred dollars. Several centu
ries ago a throne was constructed for one of the
Danish Kings, entirely of these rare and costly
teeth, and it was grareil hy the persons of a
long line of monarclis. It is now kept in the
Castle of Kossenherg. and is ns lieauliful and
perfect as the day it was completed. When
the eyes of royalty looked admiringly n|M>n these
wreathed shafts of ivory, they were invested
with a romantic interest. They were received
hy tlie easy credulity of the tunes as the hom
of the Unicom, and brought enormous prices
as proofs of tlic existence of that fabulous mon
ster. Having once adorned the head of that re
doubtable coiiihattant for the crown against the
puissant Lion, it was believed to [lossess most
marvellous curative properties The scrapings
dissolved in water would break and expel the
most virulent type of fever; and if any one hit-
ten by a venomous serpent would drink that
mixture freely, the fangs and fluid would he
made as inoxious as the sting oftiie Viper tiiat
St. I’aul shook from his hand into the fire, if
any person desires to test the efficacy of this an
cient antidote, that ltattle-Snake near the aquaria
whose bite is sonieic/tat poisonous, will lie most
happy, after his fangs grow out, to use them,
and we promise to furnish the scrapings. The
flesh of the Narwhal is said to la- death to the
cater.
The land watered hy the sea tlie Unicorns
inhabit is utterly Imre of trees, and the bushes
that spring from the sterile soil never grow high
er tlutn the square heads nl’ tlie Esquimaux.
Pennant informs us tiiat these lovers of Whale’s
blubber, not being able to obtain wood, con
struct rafts with these twisted tusks. Those in
genious grease-eaters most certainly have some
means ofkreping their ivory rafts afloat, Ibr the
germ tooth in our Museum, true to its weight,
absolutely refuses to stays moment on the sur
face. So 6r from being silly enough to go t«
the Imlttmi for the sake of a few teeth, thesoex-
]iert and hardy boatmen attack the Narwhal in
tlicir Ki.iai-ks. Seated in the receptacle pro
vided Ibr his fat person, his coat of skins fall
ing over the ledge and fitting tightly around it

(July 4, 1858) a decree has been received front
tlie Emperor, in which lie not only says that lie
has seen the Treaty of Tien tsin, hut agrees to
ratify it! Lord Elgin and suite embark on the

Story of a Chair.
A Berlin journal has the following strange
tale, of which it guarantees the troth: ’Ani old
woman, who lately died in the hospital, left,
among other things, a very old arm-chair on-otti-
ic style, and richly decorated. In the sale of her
effects hy auction, a foreigner paid as much as
ftvo liundcrd francs for the chair, and surprise
having been expressed at his giving {*rgp a
sum, lie made this explanation: Tlic cluur, with
other things, was offered hy tho Statc °{}*'**'™'
to the Empress Maria-Ihcresa, ami for main
years figured in her lioudouir.—After her death
it, by her express desire, was sent to Queen
Marie Antoinette in France, and afterward '^
one of the principal pieces of fivmttiro **
to Louis XVI. in the Temple. The Kingsvalet-
de-chambre, Floury, afterward became pos=e«sou
and little Narwhals. The fetnalo has a tisjlli on
each side of the maxifiary lmne. hut. witli lic-
coming modesty, she keeps them hidden, and
trusts to the might of the male in times of dang
er.” In this respect, indeed, it forms an addi
tional instance to numerous others, of gregari
ous animals, to the males of which alone be
longs such development of the teeth or the horns,
as sliall mnstitutc them the natural defenders of
the herd. The Elephant tlie Wild Boar, and
even the Horse, offer examples of the former,
and the Antelope and Doer of the latter; and
there can lie no doubt that the restriction of the
wca|H>u to the males in tlie Narwhal has a siin
ilar ol ject."
Tiiat pretty ivory tooth is made to miswer a
variety of important purposes. The Narwhal
uses it as tlie Sea Hog does his sliarp snout,
rooting up concha from their hiding places in
tlic'mini, and tearing mosses and Crustacea from
tlie rocks. Those stiff rough lips often enjoy
the felicity of pressing the juices out of those
fish upon’ whose shells Mocking Birds delight to
rub their tuneful hills. Skaites also constitute
one of liis most choice dishes. < >f course, we do
not mean such Kays as have several times lieen
seen by Norwegian sailors, and mistaken for Is
lands just lipheavcil. So far from being able to
swallow Krnkcrs several miles in extent, science
opens her eyes wide whenever.# large Ulain-
Uracker or Sting-Bay is found in the stomach
of a dead Narwhal. These fish, with tongues
and palates as hard as flint, measuring twenty
inches across the wings, and twenty-seven inches
in length, are forced into the Monoilon’s nioutli,
which is not more titan seven inches wide: and
the question is how docs he catch and devour
such tough, huge creatures? Unquestionably,
he must first drive his pointed tusk through the
liodies of these birdlike swimmers, and then
bringing their fleshy wings together, he squeezes
them into his narrow mouth. And with his
long, spirallv twisted tusk the Monodon also
pierces a passage to tho air through tlie water
that lias grown hard since he left the surface.
Tho Narwhal sympathizes with the intense
Logical Baggage Master.
The |Mist of baggage master on a railroad
train is not an enviable one. There is often a
wide dillerence between tlie Company’s regula
tions and tlie passenger’s opinion of what ar
ticles and what amount of them properly comes
under the denomination of laiggage; and tin's
difference of opinion frequently subjects the un
lucky official of the trunk and lamd-box de
partment to animated discussion witli a certain
class of the travelling public.—We heard late
ly an nnecilote of “ George,” the affable AI. B.
on Captain Cobh’s train on the Virginia and
Tennessee Koail which is too good to lie lost:
A passenger presented himself at a way sta
tion on the Road with two trunks and a saddle,
for which he requested checks. The baggage
master promptly checked the trunks, hut de
manded the extra charge of twenty-live cents
for the saddle. To this the passenger demur
red, anil, loving his temper, |ieremptorily ask
ed:
•Will you cheek my baggage, sir?"
'Are you ahorse?" quietly inquired George.
■What do you mean, sir?” exclaimed tlie
irate traveler.
Von claimed to have this saddle checked n>
linepipe y’’
Certainly—it is baggage," positively return
ed the passenger.
“ Well,” said the impertubahlcGeorge, “by
the Company’s regulations nothing hut wear
ing apiKtrel is admitted to lx- lmggage; and if
this saddle is your wearing ap|iarel, of course
you must lie a "horse! Now, sir, just qjlow me
to strap it on your I sick, and it shall go to the
end of the road without any extra charge wliat-
er."
Tlie passenger paid his quarter, and offered
George his hat.—Bristol SVetcs.

That Stray Goose.
Swing a n-ccnt notice of a wild goose, reminds
as of an ineident in tlic life of Rev. Jesse Lee,
which we read many years ago. Mr. Lee was
a Methodist travelling preacher, and often in his
journeys called at a house where the man was
pious and the wife was not. Mr. Lee and other
ministers often conversed with her on the sub
ject of religion, hut without any apparent effect
Tliis family had a single goose, for wliick they
were desirous of obtaining a mate.—Tlie old la
dy said considerable on the subject; hut her
husband replieiL
"Never mind. wife. < !od will send ns a gan
der.
When Mr. Lee called there again, lie found
that while a flock of wild geese was li ving over,
a noble gander had separated itscH and had re
mained with the single goose that needed a mate.
This fart had made such an impression on the
mind of the lady who owned it, that she !>ernme
serious and hopefully pious. Mr. Lee on hear
ing this, exclaimed:
"That's a good one; here is a woman who re
sisted all the learned preachers, now converted
hy a stray goose.”
(•An.—IVc liclieve that the following reply
from (Jen. lloratio HubboH, of Philadelphia, to
a circular from his alma mater, at New Haven,
asking for money for a society or duh institut
ed to train young men to premeditated and ex
temporaneous speaking or discussion, and de
clining to contribute lor any such purpose, is
founded in truth and good sense. Gab is the
curse of Republics. Superficial and superflu
ous oratory is the cause of demngogism as well
in Lcgislatine halls as upon the stump and plat
form :
Gab is the fetal epidemic of Republics.—•
What distracted Greece? Gab! What fection-
ized Rome ? Gab! What will dismember this
Union? Gab’ What anarcliizcd France?—
Gab! This eternal propcasity for gabbling,
ion all occasioas ana at alt times, is flic enrsc
the country.”
