Selling Ont a Cireur?. Operations In ltl??fr?t*ilta?l Monkeys ami Jil litlal uro Horses. Emm tit? Sun Francisco (Jbrouiote. For a week or two past display ad vertisements in fcbe newspapers und posters upon tho 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 Royal Italian CirciiB would bo t?old at auction. The placo selected waa the streot in front of Wilson's Palace Am phitheater, corner of New Montgomery and Missions streets. Accordingly a great crowd gathered yesterday. So numerous were tho curious and covetous, indeed, that the street was quito impassable for fully half an hour before the time for commencing tho sale. As was to bo expected, tho 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. Haw, red faces and variegated trowsers, belong ing io gentlemen with hoarse voices, wore to bo seen in profusion. But the majority were mere It isn't every day that one geta a chance to te^ a eirom sold at action. By 12 o'clock the crowd bivi grown EO unmanageably large that John O. Bell, the auctioneer, flatly refused to mount, the hogshead prepared for him. "With one arm around tho neck of the guanaco, and a monkey sitting on tho othor, Mr. Bell said that with all due respect for Mr. Chiarioi he'd seo him hanged be fore he wonld bawl for several hours to such an nnruly and probably hard-up multitude. At this critical juncture Jehu Wilson mounted the breach nnd offered the usc of his amphitheater. In a few momenta that commodious building was crammed and tho auction eer upon a table at tho side of the ring was airing his powerful voice on the astonishing merits of tho Batavia pony, "Tom Thumb," a black littlo beast tho size of a stunted Newfoundland. In a tono of almost tearful reproach. Mr. Bell knocked him down to James Robinson, the circus rider, for $100. " Manda rin," a Chincso piebald pony, next scampered ont and kicked up tho saw dust at a tremendous rate. " How much nm I offered for this charming littlo fellow?" cried Mr. Bell. " Fifty dollars ! " "WhatI You don't know much about ponies, sir, whoever you are. Why, look at 'im. Ho ain't got spot nor blemish, and. on my word as a gen tleman, is tho linen! animal on four .feet upon tho globe to-day; $75? Thank you, sir. Como, raiso it, gen tlemen. He's as gentle as a dog (at this moment tho Mandarin, imagining that it was a regular performance, laid down and rolled over). A lint! riding pony for children, gentlemen. $80? Thanks for email favoi'ri. No wonder Mit. CUIARINI B?IKDH TUA UH. "For heaven's sake, Mr. Badger, where are yon to-day ? Mr. Totlow, in God's name don't Kit there and seo this slaughter. I was offered $2,0110 for this beautiful animal at private sale, gentle men. Did you say a hundred, Mr. Robinson? Thank you. Mars aud ..li^b^jmig, this will iwrvt --VJO 'I ""?f'ny you uotTVrifta; tun smuts on tho dollar, gentlemen. Look at bim ! Ho's got a breast like tho side of a houSp', smooth aa L smelt, and a cont likt; satin." Man darin was finally sold fb? $170, and soven other miniature hortjes went for smaller amounts. The horses, a num ber of them really beautiful animals, t..mn price?. Aboel-Kader, a pnre Arabian stallion, hardly needed tho eloquence of the auctioneer, and as the handsome fellow went waltzing, pacing and trotting round tho ring un der the erroneous impression that a regular performance was in progress, the house broke iDto a hearty applause. "Look at him, gentlemen! Mr. Montgomery Queen, good morning. I made you a present of them two ponies, now help me ont. Going nt $80 ! Oh, heavens, gentlemen ! Why look at tho tears streaming down the aged cheeks of Mr. Chiarini. Young, gentle, sound and kiud. His skin is worth $80. Col onel Thompson, can you stand this? Mr. Daniels ! Jack Wilson ! Aiut yon ashamed of yourselves to bo sitting there and seeing a horse like this going np $5 at a lick. Mr, Austin, Mr. Don ahue, don't sit lhere liko dumb imnges. " Abdel-Kader was bought by Mr. Wilton for $.185, General Grant was knocked down to O. A, Hickox for ?G00, the highest price paid for any of tho nine teen horses sold. TTTR MARKP.T PRICK OF MONKEYS. Peoplo in want of trained monkeys will vr 'bo pleased to learn that a hide ous little monster named Jinnie fetched $130. 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 $1?0 for one, but then the beast, which is a componnd of camel and door, cnn jump ton feet high, and has large, tender black eyes. A great quantity of harness, saddles, etc., was sold at rather poor prices for such gorgeous trumpery. Tho bidders for this sort of property were all circus or stable men. John Wilson and Mont gomery Queen bought vast quantities of crimson leather, yellow silk, snap ping-whips, otc. It was nearly 6 o'clock when what was ieft of tho auctioneer was lifted from tho table. Although . Chiarini took in between $20,000 and $,*10,000 ho did not seem happy, and it was rather pitiful to seo tho saddened king of tho arona retiring into the stalls and giving his pets a farewell pat or two. A plow used by tho Emperor Joseph II. of Austria, in 1769, was placed bo sido a modern plow in a portion of tho Austrian department of the Vienna ex position of the old plows of varions nations. No botter proof could be given of tho groat advance in tho im provoment of plows which has marked the 300 years which have elaepod since his imperial majesty worried himself and mother earth with that plow. This venerable plow was composed of tho root of a tree, with tho stom for a beam, resting on on axle with wheels under neath it of nbont two and a half feet in diameter ; tho handles were secured to tho knee by holes bored into it, into which tho handles were scoured ; ibo SLAVER OF CURIOSITY. Old Plows. share was ii piece of iron nbout niuo inches long secured lo tho point by tho '.-Tao, and thou a strip of board about eix inchon wida was scoured ucar the share. This iasfc contrivance was de signed to answer the purpose of a mold board. Tho old English plows, though nmoh in udvunco of this Austrian one, wore very awkward and weighty affairs, such as now would not be accepted as a i^ift by farmers in any civilized couu try. Spain exhibited an old plow with shafts, and a wooden share. South France, a plow constructed with wood, with tho exception of tho 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 aud mothers ?B that bard eggs are difficult to digest, especially the white, and that thc less they are boiled tho better they aro for weak aud dyspeptic stomachs. Thc reverse is the case, ns there is more danger of raw aud soft white of an egg passing through the digestive apparatus with out being really digested, than when thoroughly boiled and hard ; in fact, then it constitutes a most excellent food for dyspeptics, us experience is prov ing. A writer in a medical journal says: "We have seen dyspeptics who suffered untold torments with almost every kind of food. No liquid could bc taken without suffering ; broad be came a burning acid ; meat and milk were solid and liquid lires. We have seeu the same sufferers trying lo avoid food and drink, and even going to the enema syringe for sustenance. Aud wo have seeu their torments pass away and their hunger relieved by living upon white of eggs which had been boiled iu bubbling water for thirty minutes. At the end of a week, we have given tho bard yolk of the egg with thc wbito, and upon this diet alone, without Huid of any kind, we have seen thom begin to gain flesh aud strength and refresh ing sleep. After weeks of this treat ment they have been ablo to begin upon other food.'' And all this, the writer adds, without taking meelioine. He says, what wo havo always mani fested, that hard-boiled eggs aro not half so bad as soft-boiled ones, and ten times as easy to digest as raw eggs ; and we have no doubt that an animai may bo starved to death by eating onlj raw whites of eggs, for tho Ramo rea son that dogs have bron starved bj eating gelatin alone. Only toothleai babies can eligo?t soft food, such ai milk. English Littrateurs Refusing Roya Patronage M. D. Conway writes lo tho Ciucin nati Commercial : it in probable tim apme peoplo in high places may pres cully begin to realizo that thorn is sucl a thing IIB " thc Republic of Letters.' A little time ago Mr. Ruskin refused t< roceivo from ber majesty's bands u gob medal, offered for bia service to Euglisl architecture ; and now wo have Thoma Carlyle declining tho Grand Cros? o thc Bath, and Alfrod TonuyBon a baron otcy, both in ono day. The queen wa indignant at Ruskin's refusal of th medal, but what will sho say to Carlyle -rrVivmi imu"oncn"BrlKOTr_To~HOo'and di seo, or to her Laureate V She will fe particularly soro about Carlylo, I BU poet, because he accepted tho order < oivil merit from tho King of Prnssi but uow refuses a decoration from h own sovereign. It ?B very probabl indeed, that the Bath Cross waa offere to Carlyle by the queen booausoshe fe uneassthat her Gorman friends shou think she could not recognize the abi i ty they had honored. If so, the ma ter stands worse than it did befor The fact is, it was notan easy matter I obtain Carlyle's consent to the Germa decoration, though that was not a shan It was an order founded by Frederi the Great. But the Grand Cross of th Bath belongs to those who regard tl sovereign as the "fountain ot honor, which Carlyle does not ; it is the ele oration of a " sham aristocracy " wit the symbols of tho great. The Lai reate's refusal of further royal patrol age is more unexpected, but will not I tho less welcome to his truest friend Whatever may be Baid of the parti nlar opinions of the veteran Carlyl I none can fail to recognize that he h. shamed out of existence tho anoiei snobbery and servility of litorary me CATTI?E IN CKNTRAIJ AFRICA.-Tl Buri? t? Central Africa own immen herds of cattle, but will suffer pr longed abstinence from meat rath than sacrifice one of their animals f the sake of its flesh. Tho susi enan which they derive from their herds limited to milk from the cows, bloi from the bullocks, and steaks cut fro the hump and hinel-quartera of livii cattle. Both cows and oxen aro bl periodically, and the blood thus o tained is made into a dish resemblii the black-pudding eaten tkrougho Europe. Bruce describes, in ??H Af can travels, a cruel operation which once witnessed, by which :a steak w cut from the hind-quarters of a c< el riven by the natives. The Ii a ri s n in tho habit of practicing vivisects upon their oattle, removing the lue which grows upon their backs, ai which is the most delicate por' of the beovo. After eaoh rorao\ a now In mp grows again. Thus t operation may bo sevoral times repeat upon tho same creature, and there itfi owner enjoja an occasional^ foa?l juicy steak, and etill retain a livi spring to draw from. TUB official report of the Aimtri government respecting musical instt merits at the Vionna exposition, deolai the Mason .V.

Other American organa competition were deolared to be far b meritorious, tho tones and workmt ship being both inferior, In coiupa son, it was said: "Judged lenient they c.o not rise above a respectai mediocrity." This waa undoubtedly t most extensive, thorough and com] tent, comparison e>f mich Jn??trume' ?vor maelfll 1 -Anna Dickinson describes tho new Booioty bow, QB executed by "Washing ton ladies. She naya that to bond tho head, except to acknowledge Biipe riora, is out o? fashion. The lady looks you coolly in tho faco, smiles as sweetly as she can, and jzontly in olineB lier head toward tho right shoul der, with a little backward movement at the Kamo time. A slight, French shrug heightens the effect. AMERICAN WOMEN.-It is a melancholy faofc, that American women have degrn eraled in point of henlth ond physique, until they have become literally a mee of invalids. How sad it is to look arouu'l us and compare the frail aud effeminate looking lady of to-day with the hole, hearty and buxom ladies of days gone by. To all such tho lato dis covery of i)r. Walkor, of California, which ?B known aa Vinegar Bitters, is a priceless boon indeed. Far this cia*s of diseases it is certain and safe, and any lady, old or young, can take it with entire confidence in tho result, and thus avoid what to thousands is a stumbling block never overcome, viz.-a consulta tion with a family physician. 'Tis true there may bo eases of years standing, that will necessitate more powerful treatment, but in nine cases out of ten this remedy will renell tho disease, and after a little time effeot a cure. Tho number of ladies cured by it aro num bered by thousands, and oro scattered through every state in the union. A Kew Words to Fernie ami Delicate Women. By R. V. PlEBCK, M.
