GANTA ANNA’S COACH. A Sicxk-an V; ar Veteran Teli t How Ho Assisted in Its Capture. There are in Washington many inter esting characters, some cf xvhom, though they may not have held high positions, still have lived and done service with persons xvhose names are historic. When once in a talkative mood such persons as this can give very entertaining accounts cf incidents that are now almost forgotten. Just such a. character as this is Serct. John Wal ters, noxv one of the xvatelimen at the state, war and navy department build ing under ( 'apt. Tyson, of Arctic fame. Sorgt. Walters is rved under Capt. (af terward Gen.) Sedgwick in the Mexi can war, and xvas for many years the orderly at the headquarters of the ■ army under Gon. Winfield Scott and was with him in Mexico. Sergt. Wal ters was born May 5, 1821. or, as he gates, upon "the very day that great; soldi, r. Napoleon Bonaparte, left this world I eame into it." Sergt. Walters entered the army by enlisting in the Second regiment of artillery, thonepm mapded by Col. Bankhead. Jan. 21. 1845. and with that regiment xvent to ; Mexico. Before the siege of \ era Cruz he xvas' detailed tts mi orderly at th ■ headquttr ters of Gen. Seort. When the siege commenced ho rejoined his conqKuty and xvas in <h;:ge of three mortars planted about a mil • from f.m city. The landing xvas made in March, from t.i ■ .)th to the 11th, and the Utile band of 12.500 men opened trenches, threw up breastworks and planted the mortars, l.’pon the city’s refusal t n surrender fire was opened, and on the tilth the garri son surrendered and the American troops entered the xva’rls. According to Sorgt. Walters. Gen. Scott seemed disappointed that the force promised him, 25,000 men. hail not been sent, but nevertheless on April 11 lie started out for the City of Mexico. At the battle of Cerro Gordo, Ap.rd 17. 1' rgt.

There was some controversy at the i time as to xvhether the capture should I be paid into the treasury, but Gen. Seott claimed that it belonged to the ) army. Consequently he turned it over I to the quartermaster's department to : be spent in providing .a home in xvhieh j old and xvounded soldiers could spend ' the latter part of their days. Tt> this ' sum was added the amount levied on i the inhabitants of the City of Mexico | on its surrender. Mr. Walters says that when Gen. Scott returned to this city he sent for Gen. W'ool and the two went out to the present location of the home and xvere shoxvn over the pinco by Mr. Riggs. It xvas not, however, until they had sampled the iron water in the spring that they concluded that the location xvas the proper one, although they had wire,-id/ admired the views from the various auctions of the grounds. “As far as I know,” said the old sergeant, “1 am the only man alive who participated in the capture of that coach.

Soauds, Sights and Colors Kuo tv n to Ani mals and Not to Man. If the doctrine be true that man is really the heir of all the various species and genera of the animal kingdom it seems a little hard upon us that, even byway of exception, -we inherit none of the more marvelous instincts of those species and genera, and hav<J to be content with those greater but pure- I ly human faculties by xvhieh the most | wonderful of animal instincts have I been extinguished. Sir John Lubbock maintains there are insects, and very likely even higher animals, which per ceive colors of xvhieh we have no glimpses and hear sounds which to us are inaudible. Yet xve never hear of a human retina that includes in its vision : those colors depending on vibrations of > the ether xvhieh are too slow or too i rapid for our ordinary eyes, nor of a human ear which is entranced with music that to the great majority of our : species is absolutely inaudible. Again, xve never hear of a human-be ing who could perform the feat of which wo were told only recently of a blood hound. In a dark night it followed up for three miles the trail of a thief with whom the bloodhound could never have been in contact (he had just pm 1 - loined some rolls of tan from the tan yard in which the dog was chained up), I and finally sat doxvn under the tree in xvhieh the man had taken refuge. Why, xve wonder, are those finer poxvers for discriminating and folloxving the track of the scent, xvhieh so many of the lower animals possess, entirely ex tinguished in man, if man be the real heir of all the various genera xvhieh show powers inferior to his own? We see no trace in animals of that high enjoyment of the finer scents xvhieh make the blossoming of the spring Howers so great a delight to human beings, and yet men are entirely destitute of that almost unerring power I of tracking the path of an odor xvhieh seems to be one of the principal gifts of many quadrupeds and some birds. It is the same with the poxver of a dog or cat to find its way back to a home to xvhieh it is attached, but from which it j has been taken by a route that it can not possibly follow on its return, even | if it had the poxver of observing that J route, which usually it has not. Nothing ' could be more convenient than such a power to a lost ch’l l. But none ever heard of a child xvh > possessed it. Still more enviable is that instinct possessed by so many birds of crossing great tracts of land and sea xvithout ap parently any landmarks or seamarks to guide them, and of reaching a quarter of the globe xvhieh many of them have never visited before, xvhile those who have visited it before have not visited it often enough to learn the xvay. The migratory birds must possess either senses or instincts entirely be yond the range of human imagination, and yet no one ever heard of the sur vival of such a sense or instinct in any member of our race. It may be said, indeed, that men have either inherited or some xvay reproduced the slave mak ing instinct of some of the military ants; but this only enhances the irony of our destiny if xve do indeed in any sense inherit from these insect aristoc racies one of the most disastrous in stincts of the audacious but indolent creatures xvhieh fight so much better than they work. What is still more curious is that even where human be ings have wholly exceptional and un heard cf poxvers they betray no traces of the exceptional and unheard of pow ers of the races xvhose vital organiza tion xve are said to inherit. The occasional appearance of very rare iniithematical poxvers, for instance, so far from being in any sense expli i cable from below, looks much more I like inspiration from above. The cal | eulating boy who could not even give i any account of the process whereby he j ! arrived at correct results which the ed - treated mathematician took sometime' to verify, certamly xvas not reviving in : himself any of the rare powers of the [ lower tribes of animals. Nor do the ; prodigies in music xvN> show such mar vclons power in i;i: :iey recall to us any instinct of the bird, the only mu sical creature except ourselves. Still less, of course, does great moral genius, the genius of a Iloxvard or a Clarkson, i suggest any reminiscence of lower an- I i.ual life.—American Analyst. A Mean Kind of Thieving. A lad named Miner Bender was ar rested for stealing lithographs. This arrest was the revelation of a scheme ; that has been in practice for a long time, and has become extensive in its | proportions. It seems there is a firm here which, on the plan of old Fagin, i the Jew, In “OliverTwist,’’employslads I t<> steal the lithographs from the shop ■ windows where they liave been placed las advertisements. It is only the pict ; tires of the most prominent actors and actresses and those having well known plays that are coveted. When these small purloiners have secured a goodly supply and have undone, perhaps, the entire xveek's work of a theatre bill board man, they take them to this firm and receive a small compensation for the xvork they have performed, but nothing for the crime. This firm has a use for these pictures. They sell them ftt a profit to the managers of bam storming companies, to bo used in small country towns. Thus are the people of these toxvns gulled being made to believe that they are seeing the popular plays pf the times enacted by famous actors. Thus it is that good plays and famous actors become underrated in Hind communities. —Chicago Herald.

The result was that they settled upon the “shooing” process that is the favor ite amusement between women and hens. This went on for some time, both men scampering hatless and breathless about the farm yard, the elate ealf bounding and running in the wildest manner, and leading in every direction but toward the barn door. Then the Irish maid to the rescue! With a sniff of unconcealed contempt she stalked before the outxritted sages up to tlie calf, thrust two of her lingers into its mouth and led it, eager and doeile, into the barn.—New York Even ing Sun. Tho Vampire Hat. A great many Mulhatton yarns have been told by travelers about the “ter rible bloodsucking vampires.” The reader of South American travel is al ways treated to a dish of this kind of stuff, which, if half xvere facts, would make a fellow's hair stand on ond to think of being compelled to sleep in open air in any part of northern South I America. The facts seem to bo that there is a species of bat, phyllostoma spectrum, inhabiting the Central Amer ican republics and South America as far south as the yakada. which if pressed for food xvill fasten itself on animals and the exposed parts of the human body for the purpose of rucking blood. That sleeping persons are not axvak ened by the bat, and that tho incision.l - xvhieh the blood is drawn readily heal, should be taken as proof positive that the vampire bat stories, like the human vampire stories of Hun | gary, are but fabrications of diseased imaginations. The little vampire is an insect cater, perfectly harmless, and not at all feared by the natives of the re gion xvhieh it infests. A recent traveler (Clarke. 1S8S) says I “I have slept out in the open air in the i Xiftgu country in all kinds of weather; ■ have seen hundreds, yes. thousands, of ’ vampire bats, but have always found 1 them perfectly harmless, as much so as the native black bat of Pennsylvania and A’ork state.”—St. Louis Republic. Birds That Dance. In his “Pioneering in South Brazil” Mr. Brigg Wither relates that one morn ing in the dense forest his attention was roused by the unwonted sound of a bird singing, songsters being rare in that district. His men, immediately they caught the sound, invited him to follow them, hinting that he xvould probably witness a very curious sight. Cautiously making their xvay through the dense undergroxyth they finally came in sight of a small stony spot of ground at the end of a tiny glade, and on this spot, some on the stone and some on the shrubs, xvere assembled a number of little birds, about the size of tomtits, xvith lovely blue plumage and red topknots. One xvas perched quite still on a twig, singing merrily, xvhile tho others xvere keeping time xvith wings and feet in a kind of dance, and all twittering an ac companiment. Ho watched them for some time, and was satisfied they were having a ball and concert, and thor oughly enjoying themselves. They then became alarmed, and the performance abruptly terminated, the birds all going off in difl'crentd ircctions. The natives told him that these little creatures were knoxvn as tlie “dancing birds.” • Gen. Sherinan’g Mule. In a conversation xvith Judge Joseph Cox. xvho is a very pleasant talker and full of anecdotes and information, he said: “1 xvas talking to Gen. W. T. ; Sherman, several years ago, about rid | ing horses and mules, and he said: I i ‘Cox. a mule is the easiest animal to ride i ! in the world. 1 always preferred to ride | one during the war. In a picture rep- , resenting the burning of Atlanta the | artist has me seated on a fiery steed, xvith fury in his eye, etc., while the houses are burning and the sol diers are tearing up the railroad iron. Well, I xvas there; but I was not on a prancing horse, but I xvas straddled on a plain, common, • everyday mule.’” But of course it xvould ruin a historical I picture to put a great general on a mule instead of a fiery charger.—Cincinnati Porcupine. New Alloy for Watches. A new alloy is coming into use in stead of steel in the manufacture of various parts of xvatches, such as the balance wheel and hair spring, so as to obviate the disadvantages which follow their magnetization or oxidation. The alloy is composed of gold, palladium, rhodium, copper, manganese, silver and platinum. The copper and man ganese are first to be melted, and the ot'aer metals afterward added, or the whole of the constituents may be placed in the crucible at once, xvith the manganese at the bottom. —New York Tek'jzram. /»s a ruie mo Ingenious woinu ~ much admired and sought after by the opposite sex.

It lx Bcllrreil That They Can lie Grown There 111 I.urge Xnnibcrs. The available f :t.i of cork trees are already relatively extensive, al though hardly sufficient to supply the demands now made on them,'or which as the world grows in prosperity must lie made on them, for there is hardly any end to the uses for cork, and none of the substitutes for it which have yet i been tried are very satisfactory or | promise to take its place to any great i extent. The latest estimates of exist ing areas of available eork oak forests make their extent from 3.300,000 to 3,500,000 acres, of which about one half. including those on its African possessions, belongs to France. The wood of the cork oak is heavy, coarse grained and of a yellow brown color; it shrinks and warps badly in seasoning . and decays rapidly when exposed to the action of the atmosphere. It has little value in the arts, but furnishes a useful ' fuel and makes good charcoal. The I inner bark is rich in tannin, and trees j too old or untit to produce cork are cut i for the sake of the inner bark. The cork oak is an interesting tree ' to Americans, as its cultivation now seems destined to become an important : industry in California, where the cli mate and the soil in many parts of the state are admirably suited to produce it. This is not a mere theory, as trees! have been growing now for several ■' years in California, and have already i produced crops of eork of excellent i quality. It i probable that the tree will grow rather more rapidly in Cali- ' foruia than it does in it. native coun-1 try. although the quality of the soil. . tl.e exposure in which the trees are placed, local climate and the treatment which the trees iw.-ive will influence, j of eouree. theT. pidity with which the bark is developed. In Africa it is found that the trees which grow the most rapidly produce bark of the poorest quality, and that within certain limits the slower the trees grow the m«re valuable the prod net, provided the growth is not too slow, in which case the bark loses some of the elasticity which makes it valu able. The conditions which influence the development of cork are so numer ous and complicated that the product of all the trees in a grove or forest can nev r attain the same uniformity of j ’.hickness or quality' in any given tjjne. This is so well understood in the coun- ' trios whi-ix- cork is grown that the best ' method of harvesting has been found ' to be to go over the forest every twooi , three years and remove the bark from I such trees as are covered with mer i ch.mtable cork a:id not to strip all the > tree;< ;>t the same time. Ail these matters must of course be l consider. d in connection with planting forests of eork <>;tk in California. The planting ai: 1 care of such forests in i Portugal an 1 Spain h ive long bo , an important industry, and there is no reason why they may not ba made so in Califormn. where the e aisuinp tion of cork is already enormous, al though the wine industry there is hard ly more than in its infancy.—Garden and Forest. Government tiler. There are occasional gleams of hu mor even in the most serious articles which newspa[H‘rs ever publish. A re eent one on “The Business Outlook" contained the following paragraph-: “Thanks to the administration's want lof foresight the dry weather of the j past season has become exceedingly i menacing to the agricultural interest." The journal does-not explain how the ' government could have prevented a I drought in a portion of the country, |or a wet season in another. Perhaps it 1 thinks that the government ought to | have some influence with its own ba | rometer. , This criticism brings to mind the not 1 unfamiliar criticism of a western farmer I in a season of heavy rains. “Rain, rain, rain!" said the farmer. “An' this is what we get for electin’old I Bill Flood governor last fall!'’ — | Youth’s Companion. Blinder* and Cold Bits. Blinders cause constant constraint, ■ because the horse's eyes, beingon the side ; of his head, they compel him to look ' ahead, which is just as much cross j eyed for him as it would be for us to I look sideways.
