TULIPS. " ()i’ all the flowers which shall it be ‘2" Said Kitty, wandering by my side. “ Behold ! of all my garden’s pride I'd choose a flower to give to thee.” I answered little Kitty then : “ Your blossoms are for children sweet ', The flowers that grow about our feet, They wither in the hands of men. " The Rose I love is on your cheek ; The Lily on your forehead lies; Oh, to 1 me, l'hlld with loving eyes. The flowers are mine that I would sock." The l'ttle head is drooping low To hide a soft and r. sy flush ; And sceiig there the crimson blush, More ardent still my wishes grow. " One other flower may I possess?

Three Days Experience Chasing Wild Buifaloes. [From the Pittsburgh Gazette] We started from our Colorado camp seven strong, Pugslcy, Jackson, Jack, Morse, Cal- ifornia, Payne, and myself, followed by Jim, driving the game bag. Six or eight miles out Morse and Payne leit to hunt for some buf- falo that they had fired at the day before and wounded, hoping to find one or two of them had died. \Ve rode some ten miles to where 'l‘ugslcy and Jackson had killed their two, then struck off to the northeast. After riding a few miles we saw a herd of buffalo that had been alarmed by Morse and Payne running in a direction that would bring them across the course we were riding, a mile or two ahead of us. We at once put our horses into a gallop, with a view of get- ting to this point as nearly as possible with the herd. By riding below the crest of the hill we succeeded so well that as we came in view of them they were within 200 yards of us. So soon as they perceived us their ra- ther leisurcl gallop was changed into a ter- rific run. IVe, as one man, with a cheer dashed our spurs into our horses, and urging them to their utmost speed with voice an limb, with spur and whip, dashed after them dash. ~ This time we found a herd only about ten miles from camp, and got so close to them, not over 200 yards, while still grazing that we thou ht we would have an easy thing of it. ugsley wanted a good robe, so he picked out a fine cow. I wanted a fine head, so I picked out the bull leading the herd and rode for him. Jack, I believe, didn’t select any one in particular, just as it proved ; for notwithstanding our good start the proved to be uncommonly good runners and I very soon made up my mind that I didn’t care much about that leading bull, but would prefer one from the rear of the herd, andl was just about coming to that conclusion, that] didn‘t care about any of them, after all, when fortunately, an old cow stumbled in a dog-hole and lost enough dis- tance for me to catch her. I very soon be- gan sheoting, but the tough old wretch seemed to think my bullets were intended for spurs, and I was just on the point of de- ciding that I didn’t want her either, when my sixth shot, and last, struck her, she whirled and put her head down, and came at me with a tremendous rush. Mrs. Cow only came far enough to show her good in- tentions, then started on her journey again. Of course, I flolowcd, reloading as I rode. It was easy enough to get out the empty shells, but my fingers were so numb it seem~ ed to me I never should get the cartridges out of my belt; but I did at last, and my very first shot brought another wicked charge from the buffalo, which I evaded as before. Another short Chase and one more charge, and I had her standing still, glaring at me. I got around behind her and rode pretty close beside her, and gave her one shot, which staggered her ; then one more, aimed at her chest, but, jostled by my horse swerv- ing as I fired, it struck her hip and brought her down. Pugsley, successful as usual, had killed the cow he had selected, amilc or two away ; but Jack was less fortunate, for having run along-side the one he was after and em tied his revolver into her. found, when he tried to reload, that the chamber had stuck, and his fingers were so cold that he couldn’t make it work. Jim, who, as usual, was following us with the “game bag," soon came up at a trot, and helped us to finish skinning and cutting up the game. regardless of dog holes or anything else ex- cept to overtake them. Each man singled out his buffaio. As we got among them, the herd scattered out, running in any and every direction to esca 0 us. I tell you it was mag- nificent s ort~t§e kind that makes a man's blood I‘IISI through his veins. Five men 'Inounted on horses that seemed to enjoy the spout well, right in the midst of thirty or forty monstrous black creatures, hairy, horny, ferocious-looking demons, with flash- ing eyes and long, projecting tongues, rush- ing tumultuoust forward, spread out probabv ly over a quarter of a mile :with revolvers crack, crack. cracking. I had no time to look at anything, but my own buffalo, but the other fellows, Payne and Morse said it was beautiful to look at. As soon as I at alon side I began to shoot, but just as 1 ad fire my second shot, my rifle which I had forgot- ten all about, slipped from the sling by which it was attached to the horn of my saddle, and I only just managed to catch it by the muzzle as it fell by my pistol hand. This compelled me to hold up my horse long enough to transfer my rifle to my left hand. Meanwhile my particular buffalo had gained so on me that I started for a nearer one, thinkinu the first one was lost, but fortu- nately I was mistaken, for after running some two hundred yards it dropped dead, and we found, when we came to cut it up, that one of my pistol balls had gone through its heart. CHARGED BY A BULL. Pugsley had killed one cow, and put the last shot from his revolver into a two-year- old bull without stopping it, and was trying to lasso it. As I came near enou h to hear, he hailed inc twice to come and s oot it. He had ropco it once or twice by one born, but cculd’t got the rope to catch. I soon got alongside, and with a couple of pistol shots brought, Mr. Bull to bay. He turned and made a charge at us, which we avoided by running ; then he stopped and I jumped from my horse, and slapping a cartridge into my rifle, shot him once; he staggered. I shot him a second time and he fell ; both bullets struck him on the broad side, and. both went clear through, striking ground far beyond him. After he fell I shot him once more between the eyes and the hornto prevent his suddenly getting up and making another charge. California had em tied his revolver into one, he then roped an threw it, but his stirrup leather broke, and it got away. Jackson killed one. Jack’s horse was not a good one, and he fell behind in the race, so that we only got four out of the herd. In the course of our run we crossed one of these dry creek beds. Its banks were from four to eight fee} high. When I crossed it, although I pulled by horse in and took it as slowly as possible, I nearly got a tumble, for the horse‘s‘feet sank so deep in the sand he was almost thrown over by the momen- tum. Jack, who was on the extreme left of the chase, got to this creek just as the herd reached it, closely pursued. They never hes- itated an instant, but took it where the bank was six or eight feet high, probably two hundred yards from where he was. He says that just one half of the buffaloes were on their backs on the sand, with their feet in the air. Of course it didn’t hurt them, and they rolled over on their legs and were again away at double-quick. IVc skinned our game, out out their tongues their humps and hind quarters, and were soon on the way to camp with a wagon load of meat. “We had some twelve or fourteen miles to ride, and got in about dark. ANOTHER HUNT. A rapid ride of thirty miles is calculated to make a man out of the habit of equitation rather stiff and it had that effect upon me, but I was so charmed with the s ort that next morning I was off for anot er hunt. Only Jackson and Pugsley went with me. About eight miles from camp we sighted a herd of twelve or fifteen, several miles away. “Tc tried to get near them without being seen, but after two or three fruitless efforts, we finally gave it up, and having gotten withâ€" in a quarter of a mile of them, gave them a stern chase ; therefore a long one. Jackson ahead, Pugsley next, and I behind for the the first five miles ; then my horse stumbled in a dog-hole and lost me 100 feet, which I never could regain. Pugsley, who has a magnificent horse, and who is by odds the best hunter in the party, overtook and Wounded abig calf enough to stop its run- ning; but not content With this, tried also to get a. fine, large cow. As Ibrought up the rear, I overtook Purrsley's calf, and shot it dead as I passed. 'Just then Pugsley dis- ap cared. His horse had trodden in a dog- ho e and rolled over. As I passed I saw him of; up in the act of climbing into his sadd e. I supposed he was unhurt and con- tinued my chase, but I couldn’t et alongside the buffalo. Finally I got wit iin forty or fifty yards of the rear of the herd and gave them tvvd or three shots without bringing any down. I then gave it up. My horse was blown, and I rode leisurelv back toward where I seen Jackson chasingabuifalo, think- ing he might want help. As I rode near to Pugs’ley, he called me to help Jackson kill that buffalo, “ then come here ; I am hurt.” Of course I went straight to him. I found him bleeding 3, little at the nose and ve faint. His pluck wouldn’t let him acknow - edge he was hurt until he got so faint that he was obliged to lie down, but fortunately no bones were broken, and when the faintness passed away he was able to mount and to ride home as well as ever, except some bruises, a torn garment or two, and a stopped watch. Jackson, meanwhile, had, after breaking the leg of his buffalo so that it couldn't run fast, very cooly driven it, by heading it off every time it tried to change direction, over to where the calf la . There he shot it dead. Although I fails to get a buffalo this time, I enjoyed the chase linge- ly. The next two daysit threatened snow in the morning, and we were afraid to venture far enough from camp for a hunt, for getting lost in a snow storm on the plains is no joke. A FIGHTING OO\V. On the third day we again had bright, clear weather, although a little too cold, so Pugsley, Jack Price‘andI started for another Next day I came to back to Denver. That was my first buffalo hunt, and my judgment is that it is the best sport I know of. 0 THE ENGINEER’S HEROISM. George Ellis obeying Orders to Wreck His Locomotive. It is late at night in the little depot of East Millstone, on the Pennsylvania Rail- road, and theitelcgraph operator, almost the only occupant, is taking despatches. - =Click- etty-elick sings the electrical instrument, and all the messages tell of excitement all along the front at the Bound Brook crossing. Both sides are face to face in hostile attitude. The men of the Pennsylvania Company, few in number at the point of attack, stand strictly on the defensive, and the Bound Brook and Delaware men watch for an opening for an offensive movement. Clicketty-click still ticks the instrument, and it says that there are 100 Italians at the crossing, armed to the teeth with knives and revolvers, and that the road is thronged with Irishman, who carry stones and shillelahs. Then there is another dcspatch, and this calls for instant action, for it says that the Bound Brook men are tearing up the rails, and that they have partially fixed the frog in position. In a few hours they willbe run ning their trains right across the track of Pennsylvania’s road, unless something is done at once. “ That something will be done, I’m a thinking,” said the operator, and ore he had hardly finished the sentence the clicking is heard again; and the message that it brings has the char and decisive ring of authority. The wor s are from the Superin- tendent of the Pennsylvania Company, and they are : Send George Ellis at once with "336,“ and tell him to break down obstructions on the road, and drive his engine into the frog. George Ellis, stout, swarthy, and dark- eycd and black-bearded is pacing up and down the dusky room. His engine at the door. Outside the rain is falling drearily and the night is pitchy dark. He is one of the oldest and most trusted drivers on the road, and to him has been assigned a doe er- ate and perilous undertaking; but he (oes not flinch. He buttons his smutty blouse to his chin, steps upon the platform of the engine and pulls the lever. The steam goes hissing and whizzing through the iron limbs, the wheels begin to move, and then with a shriek the thirty-ton monster springs for. ward, snorting, into the darkness. The road is all clear 13 miles to Hopewell, and the locomotive thunders on, burning and flaming across the Jersey plains and meadows. By the side of Ellis stands his brave fireman, Sam Granger, and both eer ahead 11 n the uncertain path, dimly il umined by t 1e head light. Everywhere is impenetraable dark- ness, save the rray vista ahead, over which dance spectra and bewildering shapes. Still the two men in the flying monster look silently ahead, and still the engine thundars on. The rain drops plash and siz upon the heated boiler and stand in beads upon the panes of the windows. The wet rails glis- ten in the light, and seem long, gleaming serpents of steel that curve and trail away into the dark. But Ellis and Granger do not mind them or the beating rain, for they are looking out for breakers and for Italians armed to the teeth. At length the speed is gradually reduced, for the neighborhood of the enemy is nearly reached, and there is a light shining ahead. At the depot of the little hamlet of Hope- well, not three- uartcrs of a mile from the frog, Ellis chec s the locomotive, for it is time to be cautious and wakeful. A man runnin to him through the fog says excited- , “ here are obstructions just below, and n l t e enemy are guarding the switches. The man gets upon the engine box and again they are off into the rain and fog. Not so fast. as before, however, for there are men with clubs on either side, and what they have done to the track can only be guessed at. First, a lowing red light, tossing and whirl- ing in t e air, is seen, and the headli ht gleams upon the dark outlines of a man ; ut there is no stop to-night for the signal of warnin , for it is in the hands of foes as a ruse. hen another light red and glowing gleams from the track. It is a silent com. mand for an instant halt. But Ellis knows what it means, and with a dash the en ine is upon it, and the lantern is sent whir ing into a thousand pieces in every direction. Slower and slower the engine runs, for the obstructions are near. The engineer and fireman watch intently. Suddenly a glim- mering and flickering wall rises up as the light flashes down the rails, there is a crash, the noise of crackling timbers, and then the air is full of flying tics and rails. Old 336 tosses them off her row as though they were wheat straws, an onward rushes straight for the frog and the exppctcd crash. In an instant almost another lack pile grows out of the road bed ; the engine IS upon them ; there is another crackling of wood, and the hissing engine, blowing showers of flame from her stack, uprcars In the air. There is a grinding noise, a horrible swaying, beams and iron rails fall all around, and then Ellis, throwing wide open the valves, strives to pass the sixty feet of intervening space be- tween the obstructions and the frog, from which the rails have been removed. The engine strains and tugs ; sand and gravel and mud fly in showers ; the machine rolls and pitches, and at last, with an unearthly roar, rears and plunges into a pit, and falls upon the timbers of the frog, ploughing deep into the ground. She has reached her gca , and Ellis and Granger have obeyed their orders. Mr. George Ellis sat in the little depot at Somerset Junction, on the Delaware, the other day, and laughed dcrisively at the thought that any one should think that he had done anything unusual. “Those fel- lows, you know,” said he, ” after they had piled up the first ties and rails at a distance of about 160 yards from the frog, constructed another obstruction a few rods of, and against this they placed iron rails so that the engine would run up on them. These were crushed as we mounted them, and then things flew pretty lively, till we went into the pit. \Ve were going about twenty-five miles an hour, and as the prow went down the rear went this method Of up3 and the hind wheels were revolvingl a lit a million timesa second for a fewE minutes. Fire flew out the smoke stack,- and one old farmer who had come down to see the fun, cried out ‘ I knew she‘d bust 1’ and he made lively time over the hills home.” _. __.cf-_... PHILADELPHIA . BY “ CARLOS. ” k.>.__.__. \Ve are rapidly approaching a very import- ant local municipal election, and there is a very general desire among the people that it shall be productive of some practical results for the promotion of the best interest of Philaâ€" delphia. A feeling of indifference on the part of the people as to who shall represent them in municipal office, has produced it natural results. The grade of office has sunk lower and lower, until it has become, in a- great measure, filled with men who have neither the knowledge, the intellect, nor the moral sense to discharge ublic duty with intelligence or honesty. t is true there are still many good exceptions to the rule ; men who have kept their garments clean amid all defileinent, men who are an honor to their constituencies and to themselves. But these have gradually sank into a minority, and they will sink still IOWer unless a very deci- ded effort is made to change matters, and it is hoped and looked for that our election in February will result in putting better men in office. INAUGURATION or GOVERNOR. To-mcrrow, Governor Hartrauft is to be inaugurated at Harrisburg, for his second term of Governor of this State, and many of the military and political clubs of this city intend participating in the ceremonies at- tending the inauguration. Those that do participate left this city to-day, and the turn- out cf each organization was quite large, exceeding very much the expectations of our citizens. Each club was accompanied by a band of music and carried a handsome ban- ner. At Harrisburg, tomorrow evening, Professor Samuel Jackson, of this city, will make a magnificent display of fireworks, such as has rarely been witnessed in Penn- sylvania. JUDGE KIILLuv’s SPEECH. The universal interest felt in everything that pertains to the proper solution of our financial problem, gave Judge Kelley an un- common audience at the Academy of Music, on Saturday evening, and the highly intelli- gent character of his audience indicated that men of enlightened reflection, regardless of party lines or individual convictions, were anxious for every ray of light that can be thrown upon the subject. It was not only a most positive manifestation of the anxiety of the more thoughtful classes on the subject, but it was a rare tribute to Judge Kelléy as an able disputant on the issue. That all, or even a majority of those present, agreed with him in all his views, cannot be justl assum- ed; but all evidently desired to earn, if possible, wherein they are wrong, and how our paralyzed industry can be restored to activrty and prosperit , and our national credit he maintained a ove even the suspi- cion of assault. Judge Kelley was called to his duty by a large number of the leading business men of Philadelphia. THE VISIT OF INDIANA JOURNALISTS. Two hundred Indiana journalists, accom- panied by sixty ladies arrived in the city on Saturday night, and are at the Colonade Hotel. Yesterday morning they attended the Moody and Sankey meeting, and the various churches. In the afternoon they visited the Zoological Garden, and in the evening they attended the Moody and San- key meeting in a body, occupying the plat- form, the press circle and front seats. This morning at 9 o’clock, they started for the Centennial grounds, and after dinner they visited Independence Hall. To-morrow will be spent in visiting the Mint and Masonic Temple, and in the afternoon the visitors will leave for New York. DOCTOR HELMBOLD. Dr. Henry T. Helmbold, of Buchu fame, is once more brought before the ublic, but in an entirely different manner rom what he was some years ago in flaming advertise- ments, setting forth the merits of his medi- cine, but is trying through the Courts to re- gain his liberty. He has for some time back been incarcerated in the Insane Asylum of this city, and is now trying to establish his sanity. The case is of consrderable interest, as many believe him to be a perfectly sane man. TRIAL OF C. K. LANDIS. The trial of C. K. Landis, for the murder of Carruth, is progressing as rapidly as could be expected, in the Cumberland County Courts. Evidence touching the sanity of prisoner’s grandfather has been brought for- ward, and it was proven that he died of insanity in the year 1841. Another point that has been put forth by the defence has been that Carruth’s death was caused by the neglect of his physicians. MOODY AND SANKEY. After eight weeks of labor in this city, the Evangelists are about closing their work, and leaving it in the hands of our people. These eight weeks have been very prolific in their results, and in leaving our city the Evangel- ists will carry with them the thanks and prayers of our Christian people. The meet- ings for the past week have been marked with an interest if possible, greater than that shown during the revious weeks, and thou- sands who desire to hear them have been unable to gain admittance, in most instances the large uilding being filled to its utmost capacity at least an hour before the services commenced. THE LANCASTER REVIVAL. Information comes to us of a strong reli- gious revival now going on in Lancaster, the place where the first excursion train was run from to the Moody and Sankey meetings, bringing about a thousand persons. This revival is general in its character, being par- ticipated in b all denominations. It is stated that during t e past two weeks about seven hundred have been converted, and that the largest buildings are too small to accommo- date those attendiug the meetings. UNEMPLOYED MINERS. The Schuylkill Coal Exchange, which ordered a general suspension of work on the 18th of last month, have decided not to re- sume to-day. “When the suspension was ordered at the meeting of the Exchange, held in this city on the 15th December, it was ex ected to continue only one month, but the dullness of trade has made it necessary to change the programme then laid down. A meeting was held in this city on the 13th instant, and another on Saturday, at which the subject was discussed at length. The majority of the individual operators were 0 posed to resumption, but the demands of t is furnaces enforced the necessity of open- ing a few of the collieries. Thirty furnaces out of eighty, on the line of the Reading rail- road, are now in full blast and consuming about three hundred car-loads of coal daily. The supply of furnace coal had, during the month’s suspension, became nearly exhaust. ed. The Philadelphia and Reading Coal and Iron Company took the lead therefore in a partial resumption, by ordering the opening of seven of their own collieries to-day. Indi- vidual operators will also open about twenty- five more this morning. The number of men that will find employment in these works will be, altogether nearly four thousand. It is said that many of the individual 0 erators begin work only for the purpose of teepin‘g their men from starvation, and that work is begun with a certainty of having a lar 8 pro- ortion of the product left upon their ands. he Philadelphia and Reading Coal and Iron Company’s product will be used entirely by the furnaces. It is expected that resumption will not be general in the one hundred and seventy remaining collieries before March or April. The number of men still remaining idle is about sixteen thousand.

The body of the Chevalier Albert Keller was consumed, with solemnities secundum artem, in the pre- sence of municipal officers and partisans of ‘sposing .of the dead. A Wonderful Escape. The friends of Mr. Fritz Zumann, of Spring- field, Massachusetts, reported lost in the terrible Bremerhaven explosion, have just received letters announcing his miraculous escape, and giving a graphic description of the disaster as he saw it, as follows : A box of dynamite exploded. The box was stored on a wagon, and was to be shipped with our steamer. Such a power had the explosion that everybody, say everybody, in the cities of Brcmerhavcn and Gccsteinunde were thrown down. Windows were broken at a distance of three miles and even farther/ Nearly everybody on board or near the steamer had his cars burst through the ter- rible din ; but my brother and I have not a finger hurt. \thn the explosion took place I was down in the gangway of the steamer, and all at once I felt as though two cannon balls were boring into my ears, and then glass pieces, broken plates (I stood near the kitchen) doors, beams and boards, all flow around me, but nothing hurt me. \thn in this terrible fright I looked around for an escape, I found every way, on both sides of the gangway, blocked up by the ruins. Locked up in the stcamer! And I thought every second she would sink, because it was my opinion the boiler had exploded. It took me two or three minutes to make a way, and then Ivfound, gropeing my way over corpses, bodies with- out heads, some without arms or legs, over heads without bodies, over lakes of blood, I found my uncle and my aunt, both, I might say, naked, lying down and embracing each 0t er, groaning and almost in the face of death. In the same moment my brother fell into my arms, sound and safe! And the other two are to be saved, too ! A- ------------ ¢ - -Wiww W Tne Solemn Nose. It was situated in the southwest corner of a dimly lighted church ; I don’t know what ailed it ; it couldn’t have have been lonesome ; there were noses on both sides that it was well acquainted withflrmother’s and the boys’ ; It was a long, evenly sloping plane, inclined to blossom out at the terminus. \Vhen the minister said let us pray, forth came a sound like mad wind trying to crowd through a crack in the woodshed floor ; when the minister got to Congress and thc Presi- dent a. red flag flaunth out like the flag from the caboose of a freight train, and the air vibrated even as the buzz of a loose lightning rod tied to a tyrannical chimney, and all was still in the corner again. \Vhen the minister sail “ Amen,” the solemn nose put forth like a meditative nutmeg running up and down an innocent grater. Vl'ell, it put in all the semicolons and periods throughout the ser- mon, and when the choir dropped its last soprano note, came a blast, like a woman with plumpcd cheeks, blowing on a £03011 shell to call the hands to dinner I And the congregation rose to go, and the organ played swells and the solemn nose passed out fol- lowed by the man who owned it, and mother and the boys’ and the remnant of the con- gregation, and went its way. â€"~> ~o~<râ€"~~â€"â€" From the Missouri Republican (St. Louis). A Remarkable Professional Success. Among the notable professional men of this country who have achieved extraordinary suc- cess is Dr. R. V. l‘icrcc. of Buffalo, N. Y. The prominence which he has attained has been reached through strictly legitimate means, and, so far, therefore, he deserves the enviable reputation which he enjoys. This large measure of success is the result of a thorough and careful preparation for his call» ing, and extensive reading during a long and unusually large practice, which have enabled him to gain high commendation, even from his professional brethren. Devoting his attention to certain specialties of the science he has so carefully investigated, he has been rewarded in a remarkable degree. In these specialties, he has now become a recognized leader. Not a few remedies prescribed by him have, it is said, been adopted and pre- scribed by physicians in their private prac- tice. His pamphlets and larger works have been received as useful contributions to medical knowledge. He has recently added another and perhaps more important work, because of more eneral application, to the list‘fif-his ’publis ed writings. This book, entitled “ The People’s Common Scnce Med- ical Adviser," is designed to enter into general circulation. Dr. Pierce has received acknowledgments and honors from many sources, and especially scientific degrees from two of the first medical institutions in the land. The immense demand for his specifics, some time ago necessitated the opening of a regular Dispensary for their preparation, and from a small beginning the business of the establishment has expanded it into mammoth proportims. In order to meet the demand upon it for the remedies prepared by Dr. Pierce, alargc number of men are employed at all times, and the expenditures made by Dr. Pierce are enormous. The postal ex- penses anount to nearly a thousand dollars a month, while a corps of experienced physic- ians are constantly employed by the doctor for the benefit of his patients. "L.
