Aii Elephant Fight at Barmin. Writing of the Prince of Wales’* re ception at Baroila, the correspondent of the London Daily Telegraph says : Tho chief feature of the entertain ment prepared at this return call was an elephant tight, for which sort of exhibition the Court of Baro da has always been famous. Native Indian Princes have indeed a re markable pusaion for such displays, but Khunderago and his successor, the late Guieowur, were particularly devoted to the dubious amusement of watching tho contests of animals, so that at Baroda there has always been kept up a large supply of ele phants, rhiuoceroses, buffalos, ti gers, rams and camels trained to tight for the pleasure of the Court, Combats still more cruel, such as the shocking nuekhi matches, wherein naked atheletes tore each other to pieces with iron claws litted upon the palm, used to disgrace tho leisure of the Guicowars; but we may trust that such sights are now abolished there. The savage struggles of beasts, starved or excited into ferocitv, are bad enough, in all conscience, to wit ness; but these are so very common at Indian entertainments that, like a bull fight in Spain, one sees them once or twice as part of the fashion of the country. Nor, to tell tho truth, is there wanting an element of ex citement in watching the tiger and the bull manoeuvre against each oth er, sabre-like horn against dagger like tooth; or two well fed rams come thundering brow against brow with a shock that rattles far and near. Tho Prince was introduced to certain of these combats, and saw, besides, the curious duel of tho rhinoceroses, where, despite their unwieldiy bulk and awkward weapons, there is really almost as much science displayed as Capt. Bur ton has elaborated in his reeont wonderful treatise on sword-play, with all its deadly mysteries of mou linet and the like. These cunning behemoths fence and foiu to get the advantage of the telling thrust under the jaw with their horn, and over and over again they will close, and press, and butt one another backward and forward in clouds of dust, snorting and grunting and champing foam, while tho attendants refresh them with copious chatties of water, neith er obtaining the fatal opportunity. By-and-by one of the two combat ants grows weary, allowing his mon strous jowls to be thrust sideways or upward ; and immediately with mar vellous celerity the successful beast drives his armed snout under the jaw of his adversary, producing a wound which is acknowledged with a fright ful squeal and an inglorious retreat on the part of the vanquished mon ster. For the elephant fight proper the contending pairs are carefully trained and prepared beforehand with stimulating food and drugs, and advantage is also taken of that peri odical frenzy displayed in the male elephant which is known as must. At such a time of natural excitement the elephant becomes tierce and for midable even to his keeper, and only to lead two such beasts forth into the arena and show them fora moment the waving trunk of the distant fe male, produces a degree of pugnacity which wants little additional encour agement. It was one of the favorite pleasures of the unfeeling Homan populace to watch elephant fights In the amphitheatre. Augustus, who gave the people four hundred and thirty panthers, and Pompey, who let loose six hundred lions into the arena, were thought to be outdone by Trajan when he produced twenty elephants in a state of must, and pit ted them in deadly combat against six hundred Oetulian captives. That was one elephant to thirty men, nor would the odds seem dis proportionate to those who have witnessed the Indian luitti, in tiis wrath, trumpeting out blasts of rago and defiance from his uplifted truok, straightening his tail, dropping his great under-hung pointed lip to give fair play to his ivory bayonets, and his little eyes glaring all the while like fire-balls from tbe shadow of the huge ears. Yet there are mahouts who will sit on their necks and push in the thickest of the fight brutes as mad even as this- digging at their nape, this side and that, with the ankua, or hook, though hardly more secure than would be the captains of two iron-elads coming into collision with their eighty-ton cannon dis charging, if they perched themselves upon the bowsprit ends. Hut only the best trained animals would be trusted thus to rospeet man amid their wildest rage; ordinary fighting elephants cannot be ridden to the combat; the mahouts excite and cheer them, and then slip off before the en counter begins. When it does begin such as can look with pleasure on these things behold a colossal duello. The enormous crea tures like mountains rolling together, their tusks clash and clatter, their huge feet delve ehasms in the dust and scatter it in clouds; and they rear up on their hind legs and wrestle for mastery with an agility as aston ishing as is their senseless fury. The trunk, ear and Hank are the weak places, as the wise beast well knows; and what with each keeping his own clear and seeking to seize that of his opponent, so that he may force him aside and drive an ivory sword-tip under the elbow or hock, or wring off liis leathern ear, one and the other probosces fly about together in the air like arms of an infuriated wind mill. Shrill signals of fear or rage, of victory or defeat, accompany the rounds, for the wrathful elephant blows his own battle music continu ally, and screams with tremen dous anxiety when he is getting the’ worst of it. Presently some advantage is attained, and a blow or dig which would annihilate anything but Levia than, is dealt, whereupon, ordinari ly, the sagacious brute who lias fought in vain knows that he is de feated, and quite declines to stand up to any needless punishment. He turns tail and trots off, ungainlyand diseomfitted, covered with dust and blood, and pursued a little while by the victor who, soon, however, is content to trumjiet out an insulting blast and range the arena for anoth er foe. It wants considerable skill at such a moment to slip the foot-ropes on the triumphant monster and get him out of the way; but this is man aged by the adroit mahouts, either by cunning approaches or by bring ing in a couple of females. Some times a weak elephant is forced to tlie eartli and gored or stamped so that he dies, but generally they “live to fight another day,” provided that the tusks have not been fitted with steel points, which is occasionally practiced. Among curious customs and super stitions noticed in an article in Black wood on the “Legends and Folk-lore of North Wales,” there is one the sin gularity of which is heightened by the statement that it still survives in North and South Wales and the Border. At a funeral, “a hireling who lives by such services has handed over to him a loaf of bread, a maple bowl full of beer or milk, and a six pence, in consideration of which he takes upon him all the sins of the defunct, and frees him or her from walking after death.” The scape goat is currently called a “Sin-eater.” Cheap Groceries - AT C.

Tobacco, &c. \i;rcvors mimrm. The Press, tho l’ulpit and the Lecture room are Bilent on tho subject of this disease. A false delicacy withholds a knowledge in regard to vio lation of Physiological Laws, and life-wrecks shattered humanity, Insanity, and premature graves till tho world. No race, nation or posi tion is exempt from the soul-destroying scourge. Sleepless nights, twitching of the muscles, trembling of the limbs, poor appetite, easily dis turbed by noise or excitement, pimples and blotches on the face, desire to avoid company, pe culiar sensation over the whole body are among the difficulties which attend this complaint. The Cordial Balm of Syricam end Tonic Pills will in a short time so cleanse the blood and soothe the nerves, and restore strength to the body, as to make life enjoyable and happy. EPILEPSY OK FITS. No other remedy will cure Epilepsy or Fits so quickly as tho Cordial Balm of Syricum and Tonic Pills. Kidney Diseases and many other difficulties arc cured by the use of tho Cordial Balm of Syrup aud Tonic Pills. If the watery portions of our food are not pass ed off, they must, when retained iu tho system, produce serious difficulties. Language fails when attempting to describe the sufferings of per sons whose kidneys aro out of order ; gravel, back-ache, inflammation of the bladder and of the delicate membranes of the urinary organs aro the result if tho water is not regularly and properly carried through tho kidneys. The Cordial Balm of Syricum is effectual iu promoting the secretion of tho wa tery and unnutritious portions of the food, and in carrying it off by its proper outlets. Whatever portion of our food is unserviceable should be passed off in tho water in sweat, aud from tho bowels. If theso useless mutters are retained disease is sure to follow, for then the blood becomes poisoned with the impurities which should pass otfiu their proper channels. The Cardial Balm of Syricum and Tonic Pills is a powerful cleanser of the blood; it starve the liver and kidneys into active operation, aud acts on all the secretions of tho body. It carries off old and foul elements in tho blood, which are slow aud sure death if allowed to remain iu the system. DEL XTDTXSLIHINniSSiS;. THE CORDIAL BALM OF SYRI CUM AND TONIC PILLS is the only remedy that has ever proved by prac tical experience a benetit to thoH< who suffer from over-indulgence in Alcoholic Liquors, it com pletely destroys the tastes for them, aud restores the victim to health and vigor. A single trial will prove it to bo lust what it is recommended to be. MORFUIKTE. THE CORDIAL BALM OF SYRI CUM AND TONIC PILLS is a sure cure for the habitual use of Mor phine, so extensively used in this country as a stimulant. Jt will in a very short time com pletely destroy the desire for tnis naroOtotic. We have many testimonials from the first fami lies in Europe and America, who testify to its efficacy. OIPITJM. The alarming increase of the uso of this most pernicious drug as a stimulant, by male ami fe male, and its peculiar effects, completely destroy ing the digestive apparatus and shattering tho nervous system, effeminating and debasing tho mind, renders The Cordial Balm of Syricurn and Tonic Pills of inestimable value, as it completely destroys all desire for this most baneful drug, aud restores tho nerves to a perfectly healthy state, even in cases where opium lias been used in large quanti ties and for a number of years. [Davenport Democrat, Davenport, lowa.] How few people are found without some indi cations of nervous disease. This truth has been recognized ever since classic ages, when a sound mind in a sound body was held as the perfection of human existence. Homo from congenial dis ease, others from youthful indiscretions, some from alcoholic indulgence or too free use of to bacco, suffer from tremor, palpitation of nervous excitement—all of which can be removed aud per manently cured by the English Remedy, the Cor dial Balm of Syricum, which has long been in the old country the favorite remedy, and which, since its introduction into this country, has dis tanced all other medicines having the same ob ject iu view. Boston. July 16, 187-t. Dll. G. E. Lothuop: Dear Hir—l beg to Inform you that I have been troubled with Nervous Debility for the past twelve years, and have been unable to obtain any relief until I purchased u package of tho Cordial Balm of Syricum at Mr. Duncan’s drug store, corner of Leverett and Green streets. The benefit derived from the use of one package so far exceeded my expectations that I address you this for publication, that other suffers may avail themselves of the oppor tunity to be cured.

I sleep better, and daily go about my work without hesitation or fear. My nerves are getting steadier every day, and if I continue to improve as fast ns i have done for the last few months since I have been taking your medicine, I have no doubt but that 1 shall soon again be a well man.
