Selling Out a Circus. Operations tn lllitfr-tullod Monkey o anti JUlnlatnro Hornea. From tho Bau Francisco Chronic!". For a weok or two past display ad vertisements in the newspapers und post?is upon the dead-walls havo flam ingly informed tho public that at 12 o'clock noon, on Monday, February 15, tho animals and properties of Chiarini's Boyal Italian Cirous would be sold at auction. Tho placo solected was the street in front of "Wilson's Palace Am phitheater, corner of New Montgomery and Missions streets. Accordingly a great orowd gathored yesterday. So numerous were tho curious and covetous, indeed, that tho street was quite impassable for fully half an hour before the time for commencing tho sale. As was to be expected, the as semblage had a very horsey cast. There ?were a great many gentlemen in sulkies sporting diamond pins and purple black tufts at their chins. Kaw, red faces and variegated trowsers, belong ing to gentlemen with hoarse voiceB, were to bo seen in profusion. But the majority wore mero SLAVES OF CURIOSITY. It isn't every day that one gets a chance to eoe a circus sold at action. By 12 o'clock the crowd had grown eo j unmanageably large that John O. Bell, the auctioneer, flatly remeed to mount the hogshead prepared for him. With one arm around the neck of the guanaco, and a monkey sitting on tho other, Mr. Boll said that with all due respect for Mr. Ohiarini he'd soo him hanged be fore ho would bawl for several hours to snch an unruly and probably hard-up multitude. At this oritical juncture John Wilson mounted the breach and offered tho URO of his amphitheater. In a few moments that commodious building was crammed and the auction eer upon a table at the side of tho ring was airing his powerful voice on the astonishing merits of tho Batavia pony, "Tom Thumb," ablaok little beast the size of a stunted Newfoundland. In a tono of almost tearful reproach. Mr. Boll knocked bim down to James Robinson, the oirons rider, for 8100. "Manda rin," a Chinese piebald pony, next t campered ont and kicked up tho saw dust at a tremendous rate. " How much am I offered for this charming little fellow?" criod Mr. Bell. "Fifty dollars 1" "WhatI Yon don't know much about ponies, Bir, whoever you aro. Why, look at 'im. He ain't got spot nor blemish, and. on my word as a gon Meman, ia tho flnoHt animal on four ?feet upon tho globo to-day ; $75 ? Thank you, sir. Como, raiso it, gen tlemen. HO'B as gentle as a dog (at I this moment tho Mandarin, imagining that it waa a regular performance, laid down aud rolled over). A lino riding pony for children, gentlemen. $80? Thanks for small favor*. No woudor Mit. cm AH? NI SHEDS TEARS. "For heaven's sako, Mr. Badgor, / whore are yoti to-day ? Mr. Tetlow, in ti. ' God's namo don't sit there and seo this slaughter. I waa offered $2,000 for this beautiful animal itt private salo, gentle men. Did you say a hundred, Mr. Robinson ? Thank you. Mars and JighMmg, this- wilL^ yarwt-lrtj *r -'Wiry voni?cr??VriS^ on tho dollar, gentlemen. Look at him !. Ho's got a broast like tho Bide of a hou?jp', smooth aa i. smelt, and a coat like.B?iin." Man darin was finally sold f?& $170, and soven other miniatnro hordes went for smaller amounts. The horses, a num bor of them really beautiful animals, t--xmr-jyticea. A bit el-Kader, a pure Arabian atalblon, hardly .needed tho eloquence of the auctioneer, and as the ?. handsome fellow went waltzing, pacing and trotting round the ring un der the erroneous impression that a regular performance was in progress, tho house broke ?Dto a hearty applause. "Look at him, gentlemen! Mr. Montgomery Queen, good morning. I made yon a present of them two ponies, now help me out. Going at $80 ! Oh, heavens, gentlemen ! Why look at the tears streaming down tho aged oheoks of Mr. Chiarini. Young, gentle, sound and kind. His skin is worth $80. Col onel Thompson, can you stand this? Mr. Daniels ! Jack Wilson ! Aint you ashamed of yourselves to be sitting there and seeing a horse like this going up $5 at a lick. Mr, Austin, Mr. Don ahue, don't sit there like dumb images." Abdel-Kader was bought by Mr/Wilton for $385, General Grant was knocked down to O. A. Hickox for $690, the highest price paid for any of tho nine teen horses sold. THE MARKET PRICE OF MONKEYS. People in want of trained monkeys will ?rrftbe pleased to learn that a hide ous little monster named Jinnie fetched $180. Another dissipated - looking wretch of the same genus permitted himself to be sacrificed at $21. Guana cos are costly beasts, too. Mr. Robin son paid $110 for one, but then tho beast, which > s a compound of camel and deer, can jump ten feet high, and has large, tender black eyes, A great qnantity of harness, saddles, etc., was sold at rather poor prices for such gorgeous trumpery. Tho bidders for this Borfc of property were all cirous or stable me a. John Wilson and Mont gomery Queen bought vast quantities of crimson leather, yellow silk, snap ping-whips, els. It was nearly 6 o'clock when what was left of the auctioneer was lifted from the table. Although * Chiarini took in between $20,000 and $30,000 he did not seem happy, and it .was rather pft?f ul to see tho saddened king of the arena retiring into tho stalls and giving his pets a farewell pat or two. Old Plows. A plow need by the Emperor Joseph II. of AUB tr i a, in 1769, was placed be side a modern plow in a poitio;i of the Austrian department of the Vie maa ex position of the old plows of varions nations. No better proof could be given of the great advance in the im prove m cut of plows which has marked the 100 years which have clasped since his imperial maj tr. ty worried himself and mother earth witb that plow. This venerable plow was composed of the root of a tree, with the stem for a beam, renting on an axle with sheels under neath it of about two and a half feet in diameter ; the handles were seemed to the knee by holes bored into it, into which tho handles wore secured ; tho shnro was u piece of iron about nine inebeB long scoured to tho point by the knee, and then a etrip of board about six inches wida was secured near the Bhare. This last contrivance was de signed to answer tho purpose of a mold board. Tho old English plows, though mu eh in advance of tb is Austrian one, wore very awkward and weighty affairr, siioh as now would not be accepted a^ a gift by farmers in anv oivilized coun try. Spain exhibited an old plow with I shafts, and a wooden share. South Franco, a plow constructed with wood, with tho exception of the share, with wooden mold-boards five inches wide ; this plow waa about 500 years old. Do Not Eat Raw Eggs. One of the most common prejudices of housewives and mothers is that hard eggs aro difficult to digest, especially the white, and that tho less they aro boiled the better they are for weak and dyspeptic stomachs. Tho reverse is the case, as there is more danger of raw and soft white of an egg passing through the digestive apparatus with out being really digested, than wheu thoroughly boiled and hard ; in fact, then it constitutes a most excellent food for dyspeptics, ns exporienco is prov ing. A writer in a medical journal says: ""Wo have seen dyspeptics who suffered untold torinents with almost every kind of food. No liquid could bo taken without suffering ; broad be came a burning acid ; meat and milk were solid and liquid fires. We havo seen tho same sufferers trying fo avoid food and drink, and even going to the enema syringe for sustenance. Aud we have seen their torments pass away and their hunger relieved by living upon white of eggs which had been boiled in bubbling water for thirty minutes. At the end of a week, we havo given the hard yolk of the egg with the white, and upon this diet alone, without fluid of any kind, we have seen them begin to gain flesh and strength and refresh ing sleep. After weeks of this treat ment tliey hnvo been ablo to begin upon other food." And all this, the writer adds, without taking medicine. Ho says, what we have always mani fested, that hard-boiled eggs are not half so bad as Boft-boiled ones, and ten times as easy to digest BB raw eggs ; and wo havo no doubt that an animal may bo starved to death by eating only raw whites of eggs, for tho same rea son that dogs havo been starved by eating gelatin alone. Only toothless baines can digoBt soft food, such as milk. English Literateur3 Refusing Royal Patronage M. D. Conway writoa to tho Cincin nati Commercial : lt ia probable that como people in high places may pres ently begin to realizo that thora is such a thing a? " tho Republic of Letters." A little timo ago Mr. Ruskin refusod to receive from her majesty's hands a gold medal, ofter ed for his service to English architect uro ; and now wo have Thomaa Carlyle declining the Qrnnd Cross of tho Bath, and Alfrod Tennyson a baron otoy, both in one day. The queen was indignant at Ruskin's refusal of the medal, but what will she soy to Carlyle. WktmiTme uncu tt^Kt?tJTVTf?^b omi did see, or to her Laureate ? Sho will feel particularly sore about Carlylo, I sus pect, beoauso ho accepted tho ordor ol' oivil merit from tho King of Prussia', but now refuses a decoration from his ownv sovereign. It is very probable, indeed, that the Bath Cross was offered to Carlyle by the queen beoauaeahe felt uneasithfit her German friends should think she could not recognize the abil ity they, had honored. If so, the mat ter stands worse than it did before. The fact io, it was notan easy matter to obtain Carlyle's consent to the Gorman decoration, thongh that was not a sham. It was an order fonnded by Frederic the Great. But the Grand CTOBS of the Bath belongs to thos6 who regard the sovereign as the "fountain o? honor," which Carlyle does not ; it is the dec oration of a "sham aristooraoy " with the symbols of the great. The Lnu [ reate's refusal of further royal patron age is more unexpected, but will not be the less welcome to his truest friends. Whatever may be said of the partic ular opinions of the veteran Carlyle, none oan fail to recognize that he has shamed out of existence the ancient snobbery and servility of literary men. CATTLE IN CENTRAIS AFBIOA.-Tho Baris ef Central Africa own immense herds of cattle, but will suffer pro longed abstinence from meat rather than sacrifice one of thoir animals for the sake of its flesh. The sustenance whioh they derive from thoir herds is limited to milk from the cows, blood from the bullocks, and H teaks cut from the hump and h i nd-quarters of living cattle. Both cows and oxen ure bled periodically, and the blood thus ob tained is made into a dish resembling the black-pudding eaten throughout Europe. Bruce describes, in his Afri can travels, a cruel operation which be once witnessed, by which i a steak was ont from the hind-quarters of a cow driven by the natives. The Baris are in the habit of practicing vivisection upon their cattle, removing the lump whioh grows upon their backs, and whioh is the most delicate portion of the beere. After each removal a now lump grows again. Thus the operation maybe several times repeated upon the same creature, and thereby its owner enjojfl an occasional^ feast of juicy steak, and still retain a living spring to draw from. THE offioial report of tho Austrian government rospeoting musical instru ments at tho Vienna exposition, declares the Mason & Hamlin Cabinet Organs tc be "the most distingu? shea and praise worthy instruments " of their class ; praising in detail their power and reso nance of tone, variety of combination and solo effects ; fine power of expres sion ; smooth, even and sympathetic tones, and thorough workmanship. They were awarded the first and high est medal. O thor American organs in competition were declared to be far less meritorious, the tones and workman* ship being both inferior. In compari son, it was said : "Judged leniently, they do not rise above a respectable mediocrity," This was undoubtedly the most extensive, thorough and oom po tent oompa'rinon of such infltfitme^ts ever madel * -Auna Diokiuflon describes tb? new sooiety bow, as exeouted by Washing ton ladies. She eaya that to bend the head; except to acknowledge supe riors, is out of fashion. The lady looks you coolly in the face, smileB as sweetly as she can, and gontly in clines hor head toward tho right shoul der, with a little baolrward movement at the samo time. A slight, Frenoh shrug heightens the effect. AMERICAN WOMEN.-It is a melancholy fnot, that American womon have degf n eratod in point of hen lt h and physique, until they have become literally a race of invalids. How Bad it is to look around us and compare tho frail and effeminate looking lady of to-day with tho hole, hearty and buxom ladies of days gone by. To all Buch tho lato dis covery of Dr. Walker, of California, whioh ?B known as Vinegar Bitters, is a priceless boon indeed. For thia CIOFB of diseases it is certain and safe, and any lady, old or young, can take it with entire confidence in tho result, and thuB avoid what to thousands is a stumbling block never overcome, viz.-a consulta tion with a family physician. 'Tis true there may be cases of years standing, that will necessitate more powerful treatment, but in nine caseB out of ten this remedy will reach the disease, and after a little time effeot a cure. The number of ladies oured by it are num bered by thousands, and are scattered through every state in the union. A Kew Words to Feeble and JJcltcnte Women. By R. V. PiEncE, M.
