He wea an exceedingly large.end henry man and the boree, having a dlaiike to entry Mich a burden, acquired the habit of lying down on the grodnd whenever the colonel prepared to mount. This, as may be supposed, an noyed him, and, to avoid the ridicule of the soldiers, he parted with the animal, and procured another not so fastidious as to a Few stones nonce or lets. We believe It was a year or two—oertahtly some con siderable time—after that the colonel, vising another station, was invited to review the twope there, and a hone wen placed at hianerviee, which, on his attempting to mount, immediately lay down in roll view of the assembled regiment It turned Oat to be the identical dismissed charger, who had at onoe recognised his former objectionable owner. •A very interesting anecdote is related by Fretforic* Cuvier, ahowthg* not only great ptw* of memory, but also strong attachment in an animal generally supposed JO he destitute of ill good qnalities—thewolL A genflerntn had trained up one from infancy till he was aa tractable as a dog, would follow him about whenever allowed, and become quite lowspirited when he was absent. Being compelled to leave home, his mast er made him over to the Menagerie da Red, where he at first drooped and refused to eat, but gradually became more reconciled to the situation. After (he lapse of a year and a half .his master returned home and paid him a visit. The wolf knew his voice the moment he spoke, and flew to him with every demonstration of delight and affeotion, planting his fore-feet on his shoulders and lying his face. The same scene occurred after a second separation of three years’duration, the wolf, as before, at once recognizing his master’s voice, and bound-. ingtwwi txahim assoonsasfet at liberty by the keeper. A final parting followed, and from that time the faithful creature never appeared to regain his former spirit s and equable temper, occasionally indeed betraying ominous signs of the ferocity inherent in his race •

One, however, recorded by in a paper contributed to a scientific Journal, and which'is vouched for from personal knowledge, is worth a brief notice.

About Making Tea.

Haw few people hfoow how to make tea r Only middle-aged bachelor* ever attain supreme excellence In this art. and perhaps a few gifted ladles who have been cirefully tn strutted by them. How many spoonsful, and drench the same with an indefinite quantity of half boiling water, realize thedifflrulties ofthetaskthey hive so lightly undertaken ! / They ocpfideftly put the fr tea-pot on the stove, as they say to draw,” as if; forsooth, tepid water would ever draw the hidden treasure outt of leaves that have, perhaps, been placed in a tea-pot only half warmed. Others pour you out three thimblesftil as strong as brandy, aqd then ftll,i>p your cup with pure water, anti Land • you this flavorless mixture, with the request that youwilladd ihilk and sugar according to your taste, as if any possible additions could make the wretched stuff drinkable. Some pour your tea into a cold cup, and deluge it the tea will look darker without much milk. Some giva you a good first eup, and let the drained tea pot stand till you call for a second; then have the effrontery to sll it-»p tinker your very pqse. and; offer to pour you dut any quantity of hot water, which they expect you to drink gravely, with milk and sugar, anti call it tea. Others put in soda, and stir the tea-leaves -with a spoon —some boil your tea i in fact, there Is no end to the dreadful delusions, practiced by women on themselves and their viestfastgttuftraf may be laid down, such as—sep that the water boils; warm your tea pot and cups well through; fill the tea-pot at least half or three quarters full, or ypur tea will be cold, thfc water/wiH not be hot enough to draw, or it will draw a little strong esyou will presently have to drown, End consequently spoil, with bdff-> ing 'water. Keep the tes as much as possible of an even quality. Let the second and third cups be at least as strong as the first.

It is anfllcient toknffw that its poisonous principle exists, and that a safe?nurd against its insidious influence has been provided. In the iprtng and early summer, when fevier and ague, remittent fever and iOther periodical diseases of that class are preva-; lent, it Is only necessary to fortify the system with a course of Hostetter's Stomach Bitters to escape them.
