Last Sunday C. Swceters and the writer were driving up the Water cun yon, and as we turned a bend we saw a doe aud a young fawu drinking from the stone ditch. At our approach the animals were startled, and in st tempt ing to turn snd run the poor little fawn lost its balance and full iuto the' ditch. As many of our readers know, the water runs very swiftly and in treat volume up there, and of course the fawn was carried down stream. The mother deer seemed to lose all fear of us, and ran alonp ths edge of the ditch trying to resell ber offspring with hor bead. Suddeuly she ran ahead of the tloaliug fawn for some little distsnce. 8he pi soiled into tiie ditch with her head dowu strnaia and her hindquarters toward the fawu. She braced her fore feet firmly in the erevices of the rocks to resist the rush of water. In a secoud the fawn was washed up on its mother's brk. and it instinctively clasped her ueck with its fore legs. The doe then spraus; from the ditch with the fawn ou her back. She lay down and the baby deer rolled to the ground in an utterly exhausted condition. We were no riot aiure than thirty feet from the auiinals, but the mother, seemingly unconscious of our presence, licked and fondled her offspring for a few minutes until it rose to its feet, and the doe aud fawn then trotted off up the mountain. Vanning Ueruld. Dynainlo Power of Coal. A curious calculation has been mads by Prof. Rogers of Washington, D. C, on the dynamic power of coat. Ac cording to the professors single pound of gooil seam coal has within it dyna mic power equivaleut to ths work of one niHit for one day. Three tons ot ths same coal represent a man's labor for a period of twenty years, and one square mile of a seem of coal, having v depth of four tent only, represents as much work as 1,000.000 men can perform ia twenty years. Prof. Jnhs Fiske is writing a biog raphy of Theodore Tarker. CAPTURED A CIRCUS. . An Anaslof f eotdent of Political Cam pifa la Keotacky. ' Gov. McCreary tells a number of in terestiug stories of his csmpaigo, nni ho related the other night, savs the Louisville Uouricr-JourmU. how Ik made a speech in a town where Kob inson's circus was holding its show, anil captured the crowd. Slid he: "I heard nothing of the circus, and as I drove on toward the town where I was lo speak I was surprised at the num ber of people I saw going into the city. 1 nns much elatod. 1 thought they were going to a political meeting, and imagined that overvbody had heard of Gov. MeC'reary and was goinif to bfl:ir liiiu spak. As I noared town the crowd became greater. It coutained negroes aod whites. It was made up of young and old, aud I thought it very struugu. At List I passed an old blnok aunty with a young black girl run ning bueide bur, aud I slopped her aud said: "-Good day, aantio. Goiugin to the Bpeukingr" "What!' said the old wouiun. 'What data you say?' "Are you going into town to hear the speaking, auntie?' '"Speakiu P' said tlio old woman, as s look of blank amazement spread over ber black face; 'I-didn't know they was any speakiu'. Ise go In' into the circus.' "At that my feelings foil and J thought of turning back. It is no use to speak agaiust a circus in Kentucky. You are sura to be beaten. Still 1 was advertised to speak in tho court house that morning snd I knew if I didn't do something with the circus I would talk to empty benches. Now, 1 hud several newspaper niou with me and I sent ono of them to seo Mr. Itohinson. the manager of the circus, aud divide his time with me. This newspaper man was a nice foflow, but he had mi idea how to niitn.igo a di plomatic, affair like this. He went and caiiie back and told mo he had seou Robinson and Robiuson told him he. didn't care a blankely blauk for Mc Creary and that McCreary could speak when he pleased and what he pleased. That bu vvus here to manage his show and ho was going to manage 'What did yoa tell blmr said 1. -'"I told bim that Mr. McCreary was in town and was advertised to speak, and that ho would like to divide limtf with him.' " Dili vou toll him that I was a i candidate for governor and that I was a democrat?' 1 '"No, 1 did not,' replied the news- paper-man. "Well, you come with me said I, 'and I will show you how to get alonr with the circus.' We then went out and the newspaper-man pointed out Robinson. He was standing with a number of circus employe around him. I stepped up to huu, took oil my hat and bowed very low and asknd bins if I had the houor of addressing Mr. Robiuson, tho influential and dis tinguished citizen of New York whe hud done ao much for the democratic party. He replied that he was the man. I then went on: . 'Mr. Robinson, I am flad to have the honor of meeting you. have beeu sent by Gov. McCreary. the candidate for the democratic gover nor in this stale, to give you his re gards and to request that inasmuch as he knows of your services to tho party, and as he is to spak here to-dnv. lo ask that you will arrange, if possible, is ... nil nun Know ni uii iiiuu un eau uun his meeting so us not to conflict with your celebrated show. Guv. Mo Creary, Mr. llooiiHon, has a very bl!s opinion of you, aud he wishes to oblige you.' "llohfnson, the circus mau, was highly flattered at this address. 1 could' see lie was duinfouiidud when he said: "T thank Gov. McCreary very much, and I would like to see hiin. Take me aud introduce me to bim.' "Well," continued Gov. McCreary, I couldn't introduce mv'self alter thai harangue in the presence of these cir cus meu. but I said: " All right. Coino along: 1 11 take you to him.' "With that I took him to my room and as soun as we got inside I shut the door. Robinson looked all around anal asked: "But where Is the governor?' "I rose to my full height, put one hand on mr breast, and hold out the other to Robinson. "Mr. Robinson,' ssid L as I took his hind, 'let me make you acquainted with Gov. McCreary of Kentucky.' And with that 1 patted my chest with the other hand and bowed. Robinsoa laughed and he ssid that he would do snjthiag be could in his power to help along ray meeting. He started bis procession ssd brought It around te the court bouse, aod there made tbt rue a and woiuea get off their horses and f o inaide and listen to the speech. The result was that the whole orow4 want anla than, enil T hail ae lm. rueuM audience. The only trouble I had as to the circus spectators was that they applauded wheuever I made a pause and often cheered at Us wrong time. At the close of my speech Robinson banded me a handful of circus tickets and told me to come to the show and bring my friends. The same uieht there was a prohi- VII.IUI1 IIIIHJI IU hUWU, auu a I1IW if he was going to speak against the circus, lie replied that bis audieuce would be men of principle and that ha was not afraid of the circus.

It is the humorous element in Lin coln's speeches and writings wbioe makes them almost sui generis, says Wtitminster Hiineui. What ha said or wrote to bis gxucrals was often s mus ingly pi:t. When a seemiti'.dy insur mountable obstacle checked the ad vance of oue of his armies his favorite illustrstioo was: "Well, if you can't plow through the log, perhaps you can plow around it" It was the characteristic of Gen. McClellao, ths author tails ns, thai be always regarded bsel weather as ex ceedingly injurious to him, but as never injurious to the othur side; so Lincoln once said id him: ' He seems to think, in defiance of scripture, that beaven sends its rain only on the just, and not on the un just." Exasperated at the discrepancy be tween the aggregate of troops forward ed to the sam general and number that general reported as being received, Lincoln exclaimed: ; "Sendiug men to that army is like shoveling flea-s across a barnyard uot half of theiu get there." Whon ono of the northern com manders took the control of a Missouri church out of tho bands of its . rebel trustors Lincoln disapproved of the measure in a dispatch routnining this tcriio and rigorous phra-e. which ini medintely obtained wide curreuey: "The Cnited States government must not, ss by this order, attempt te run the churches." When Grant was accused of intem perance the president answered: "If 1 knew what brand of whisky ho drinks I would send a barrel or so to some other generals." He ones telegraphed to Gen. Hooker: "If the head of Lee's army is at Mart inoburg and the tail of it ou the plank road bctweon Fredericksburg aud Chaucellorsville the animal must be very slim somewhere.
