S0ENTIFIC. New Bone Cavern fi Ireland.-The bone cave at Shandon, near Dungarvan, Iin the conuty of Waterford, accidently discovered some twenty years ago, was the first Irish i produced aln limal remalins belonging to the pleisto cono period. .in it wore found remaims of the mammoth horse, bear. wolf and reindeer. Another cave hias recently been found near Cappoquin, at a dis tance of abont seven miles from the Shndon cave. This new cavern is of large size, and appears to have Uoan oc cupied at, a very remote perlod by bears, portions of whose skeletons are to be met with on the lower deposits of the floor ; but time chief interest In this dis covery rests In the fact that renial is of the great Irish elk (Megacrros Hiberni cus ) were found in it, inl conjunction with the bones of other (leer and of bears, and along with a polished green stone colt ( neolithic ) and soveral stone ru bbers. There were also some remairk able and strong evidences met with of tle association of man witlh the great Irish elk, for Professor Leith Adtams, in whose prescuee these renains were taken outof the cave, and by whom they were packed up for further observation, says that imacy of the hones of the neg aceros were evidently split for their imarrow, and several elk cannion-bones were foun d ashiloned hito awls and gauges, showing that was not only col tcepolorancouis with the giant. stt of, Ireland, bit, also may have in somec measure helped to extermninate it. The exlplorations of this cave are still going 01, an11d they promise to open out at new era in the prehistoric history of I reland.

IousEsHOEING. - Perhaps iever since the first horseshoo was invented, has Its evil been so great as at the pre sent day. One of the great errors is Fo many now -ideas of shoeO. From the veterinary to the lawyer has the brain becil racked for somet new fangled Idea, supposed to be a beneit to the horse-if not tile horse, the iuvenator's pocket. There Is the Goodenottgi, the Seeloy, the John Billings. the Keystone and numerous others. Each of them has been trying to beneft the speed or draft of the horse, forgetting that the usefulness of the horse depends on tie adaption of tho shoo to the foot, not to the ground. I find that lameness in most cases is cniued eit her by the shoo made too narrow at the quarter and cutting the foot to lit the sh1o or the shoe being concaved or beveled from tie outer edge Inward. Every timo tile horsel' weight Cpresses on the sho it prodlecs Cont.raction i Instead of ex panlsion, causes fever in the foot, there by destroying tile lealthy condition of the frog and causing it to sh1rink trom its wolted size, tLris prevetiing it giving the moisture an11d elasticity tLlit nature intended it ro supply to the foot.

Y., who followed the sea In the whaling business for ltany years, says the Impression many people have that a shark can bite a iman's limb off or bite hin in two Is erroneous Tlie shark's teoth are in layers or rows. and are smtall, saw edgetid, thin and sharp as ra zors, but very brittle, so much so that the moment they bite on any hard sub stance thy break oil', reidering it tit terly inmpossible for them to bito a bone in two. Th re of these rows of teeth, are ordinarily [i use, and whoat broken are naturally replacod( by those further back In the inouth g:owing out. sitillar to nails in the iuman hand or foot. This gentleman also says that lie has seen hundreds of what Is known as the gray shark, near the Soclety Islands in the South Pacillo Ocean, and has known them to attack a whale in scores with a porfectly terrible ferocity, !ash luig at ani catlIhing hold of the cars and keel of thoe boat with lightning like rapidity anid with such force as to throw the oarsmen froi their seats, aid in several Instances nearly throw ing the boat steerer overboard. The oars and keel of the boat when oxamitn. ed afterward were found full of pieces of their teeth. While the above may be fast, yet it Is undenlably true that thcru are species of sharks which do attack and seriously Injure If ilot kill htinan beings. A gentleman of King stoni, N. Y., who as an oillcer In the navy has voyaged aro'iid the world, relates how, in Pensacola Iarbor, lie saw a "tiger shark" seize a tian-who wias one of the crew of the ship of which the gentlenan was an oilcer and as q(tiek as thotight snap off his leg, and It was with diil1aulty the tuslortunlate sailor was rescued. It was as much as a iman's life ,was wortl to ventiltre Into the Water at that point, as the "Llgers," fromn lftec:1 to twelIty feet long, were umicrous and ferocious, and never hesitated to attack a inman who cnme within reach.
