A correspondent of the London T'l>nrnp!i relates the following incident : Sum.- y--ars ago I was bringing two monkeys l,..iin- from l he West Indies, which 1 had named "Jack" and "Jill." Jack was a brown monkey aim-it the size of a fox terrier, while Jill was smaller, and of the sort known a* " white-faced." One day Jack was indulg- ing his curiosity in diving into my pocket*, and among other things fished out a cigar. Hi: xinelled it, and before I could stop him hounded ott to bis cage with his prize, -lill rushed after him to see what he had got, and he considerately allowed her to smell ami no more. Then he tore it up and to chew it, and presently worked himself up into an ecstasy of delight, taking the h.ih chew. -n his mouth and smearing It over his f.n-c and body with maudlin satis- faction. Jill *t the while at the other end of the cage regarding her lord and master with Honderin^ interest, but afraid to dis- turb IIM revel-, lliougli she once or twice crept cautiously up to obtain a nearer view of the cause of all this excitement, and to make a sly attempt to get hold of it. Jack's excitement began to get too much for him, and he rolled about hi* straw and twisted himself intoall sorlsof contortioniin uncon- trollable delight and at last fell down in a helpless state of intoxication. Thereupon mse has paid a bill pro piuin without a pSysi cian's certificate, or to sell tobacco or Cigar- ette* to minors aft-r notice forbidding kuch sale has been given by a parent or guardian.

The men who fought in the days Iwfoie team power were a hardy let, however, and during fre- ipuent wars executed many wonderful marches. The earliest and probably greatest march on> record during ancient times was that of the Lacedonian infantry from Sparta to Mar.ithon (490 B. (,'. ) to take part in the great battle at the Utter place. They marched 150 miles over an almost roadless i-o-intry in three days, under a weight which those who have seen the helmets ai.d breast- plates of ancient Greece con easily estimate tor themselves ; they came up too late, how- ever, and more than one historian has hint- ed that " theaccident happened onpuipote." Contemporary author* have been m. r- gen- erous, however, and have given them credit for having honestly done their utmost to ar- rive on time. I>aring the famous retreat of Xenophon and his " Ten Thousand " through Mesopo- tamia in 4O1 B. C. , many forced marches were executed, which equaled, and if we take into consideration the burning heat of the great central plain and incessant attacks of a hostile force which were added to the natural ditiicultie* of the way, even excelled the march of the Spartans. I..- romantic, enuaily brilliant and far greater in historical importance was th* march accomplished by Claudius Nero dur- ing the v .-olid I'unic war in 'Jo? B. C'. , whep suddenly abandoning his watch of Hanni- bal's army in Apulia, he hastened by forced man-iies into L inbria, defeated Hesdrabal on the Metuurui, - 1 "" miles from his starling point, .in! was back in Apulia before Han- nibal liad time to discover his absence. Dur- the entire march of 4<lO miles the army did not stop once for any length of time : eight and day they matched, taking their hurried meals and reding by relay* in the wagons which the couulrv people provi .ed, and whicli followed in the rear of the column. In 1*01 B. C. Hannibal himself accom- plished in even more rapid, though far lea triumphant march in his retreat upon < 'ar- tfter the fatal battle of Zama. So quickly did he march that he reached Adrumetuui, sixty three mile* from the bat- efield, between sur rise and sunset, while the pursuing Romans are said to have ac- complished sixty miles of the journey in the same time. It is recorded that during one of the latter campaigns in Gaul C'a-sar's Tenth legion achieved a similar feat. Let u* now jump from ancient history to more recent times, in which we will rind these exploits fully equaled, striking a* they are. In tiii march from York to meet William the Conqueror at Hastings, the Saxon King i ,. \i-u-d J'Jli miles in 6ve days a most remarkable feat when we remember what the roads of ^a\.m Kngland were like. A few years later W illiam himself equaled this feat, when, after defeating one body of Savon rein-In at Stafford, he crushed another near York U-fore even the news of hi* com- ing reached them, and then shorting like a TTlMltn ball acroM tin- whi'lc breadth of Kngland hi- overwhelmed the invading S> rich under Ulelhwallon. near Chester. In l.'i'Ki Sultan Bajaze' advanced with such amazing ipeed on the Christian confed- erate* near Sikopolis that an ol 1 historian speaks of it not as "a march, but a leap." The distance covered was 11,1 miles in two days. Celebrated n:aich of tiustavus Adol- hrough nortl. in Germany in I '..'!
