There Is a wall In the New York Ledger thai there la every reason to tvllevc thiit elephants, like the Ameri can bison, aro fast disappearing. In a worker In ivory In Sheffield, Knglnnri, endeavored, In all seriousness, to figure out how long tha elephant would fast. IUb own house, he said, had In one year lined 1,2X0 pairs of tuiks, which meant Ihp killing of more than that number of animals, for not every repliant yields two tusk of Ivory to Urn ivory hunter. That the African pecleg iH f,m disappearing there is lit tle doubt. There are ninny elephants In llon. and from that Island most f those that are displayed In traveling menageries and In zoological gardens come. The snowman has very little use for the African elephant, because tie In less Intelligent than his Indian -ouin and much meaner In disposition. The African elephant Ih the longer legged and smullcr-hodlcd animal. Jumbo, who was n half-breed, had the Jong leg of the African anil the largo body of the Indian elephant. Jumbo ;m undoubtedly the largest of nil ele phants, tii.'iudiiiK 12 feet 8 Inches in fie-ight. The largest elephant remem bered In India was one ridden by the viceroy In ISSfl, which stood 10 feet 4 Inches. Col.

There had, of course, been repeat ed invasions and successful invasions of her soil from the days of the Anglo Saxons themselves down to tbe expedi tion of William of Orange but growing wealth had furnished ever increasing means of resistance In the superb arma ments which under England's Has; made access to her shores so much more ditll cult with every year that finally, after the Seven Years' War, it came to be regarded by her enemies as impossible. On the otiier baud, the people them selves are to this day skepti cal, and fall Into p 'iodic pan ics on the question. Some clev er fiction, We the "Battle of Dorking," or a revival of the project for a tunnel under the channel can awaken such visions of invasion as to insure the passage of any grant for strengthening the navy.
