Cliusiiic; tlio IlippotamuH in the Detroit lUvor. Fr..m tlm Detroit "Krco IVum,' of .limn S1J. A very o.uitiuc us well as novel ullalr occurred about six miles down the river, on Monday afternoon, belli no les than a ver itable chase of a hippopotamus. It seems that In the. transit ot tlm circus, now per- torinlnu here, from liitnuio to tins city, ll becuinu in c"sary, on uceount of their ex cossivo weljjht.'to send tho elephants and tlio hippopotamus on a propeller, and they worn aecordinuly shipped on board tho s. li. Hnlihvi'll. On Mnndav afternoon, us the steamer was nomine this port, a fcouo of Viva l excitement occurred, which nearly re- lilted In tlio escapo of the lingo b"hemoth, or hippopotamus, belonging to G. C. Quick, and ut present forming one of tho attrac tions of G. F. Uailey's (uudrtiple clrcu. The hugo beast was shipped from itutfalo on board the steamer 8. 1). Caldwell, and as it was Impossible to got his immense capo on board, that was sent by land, while his Kolu-muthsulp, nccompaiiied by All, tho Egyptian, his captor and keeper, proceeded by water to Detroit. During tho voyngo it was noticed that tho animal continually looked longingly toward tlio water, as tttougli ho would havo given ono of his cyo teeth (no trill by the way) for a plnngo into tho depths of tho lake, and a ramble nbont lUi unexpired bottom. No ono sup pirsed. however, that ho would yield to his umphibiou8 tastes, und, eo uo extra watch was et upon him. As tho steamer neared tho city, and when three miles Mow the Fort, and as All and everybody ulso were gazing landward, a crash and then a splash wero heard from tho sIUo or tho bow towards tho American rtiore. Everybody trashed to tho rpot. The jilaco on tho bow where tho hlppota 'nua had been confined was empty. Tho truth became instantly apparent. The boast, ttnablo to resist tho temptation, had burst his bonds and plunged into the river, resolved on an ecnitatio excursion. The owner, who was on board, looked tho pic tuio of despair. $l0.00(j, to s'y nothing of a' lurgo amount of prospective profits, had suddenly vamosed. As for All, the Egyptian keeper, ho was nearly frantic lie tore his hair and prayed to his strange gods. In a few moments, however, the monstrous head of tho huge beast appeared above tho surfaco of tho water. A general bout aroso, and All was with difficulty pre vented from jumping overboard In pursuit 'I' his companion aud beloved pot, while a lxat was lowered, into which he jumped and rowed toward tho beast, who swam about iu nn testacy of delight. As tho Egyptian commenced calling him by familliar names, and at tho sound of his voice the monster 'stopped, looked around. and seemed to wait for tho bout to near htm but just as it approached in reaching db tnncu tho hippntiiinus gave a plunge, and onco more dissnppeared, leaving a whirl pool of seething water to mark the spot where ho had gone down. Nothing wus seen of him now for a long time, nnd they wero about giving htm up for lost, when lie suddenly made his nppoaranco about 11)11 yards olf. but nearer the shore than at first. All again rowid toward him. calling to him as before, but again tho beat dodged him. and dived to the bottom of tho river. All now made a large circuit with hta boat, in hopes of taking him by surprise a he camo up to breathe, but as it nwuro of his inten tions, the hippopotamus rose n long dis tance oil, aud looked ut his master cunning ly, and with an expression which seemed to say. No you don't." For a third time All started in pursuit, with a result similar to that which had attended his other efi'urts to capture his pet. When ho went down the third ttmo, Alt paused, evidently completely nonplussed, and seemingly overcome by grief and des pair. In a second, however, ho seized tho oars nnd rowed towards the steamer. "Try do tog," ho shouted, as ho camo alongside; gib inu lu tog I" A largo black mastiff, which had been trained to sleep In the cage of the hippopotamus, and for whom ho had for a long time evinced much atl'ectlou, had been keeping up a continued howling from tho time his companion had escaped, was now loosened, nnd ho Instantly plunged in to tho river nnd swam after All as ho moved oil'. In about a minute the hippo potamus stuck his head out of water, and on seeing him the dog gave a wild bark und swam In his direction very rapidly. All acompauylug iu the boat. At last tho dog reached the monitor, aud with a series of barks, commenced swimming round tho animal, and finally struck out for tlio shore, the hippopotamus following. Tho Interest excited by this scene wns Intense, which continued to increase until tho dog and hippopotamus reached the American shore. All was not long alter, and tho niiimui was no sooner on termjlnna than the Egypt inn. armed wPh a siunll raw hide, which ho had taken with him, jumped on the bench, nnd going up to the animal, spoke a few words in tlio Egyptian longitv. gave him a few smart raps over his ponder ono rump with the rawhide, and drove lipn without further dilllculty to a place of safe ty, wheni ho was onco more secured, nnd tlm proper moans adopted to havu him brought to this city, where ho now Is, In fine condition, after his frolic beneath tho waves. TlIKItt IIot'K is. i.v Dkmm'imgy. A Vieksburg letter of Juno U.'ld, says: " Tho prisoners tell various stories about tho strength ol tho city und the amount or supplies, but uclcuowledgo tli.it they nro living on half rations, and many of them hud tint been out of tho rilU pits for ten days their rations being carried to them in the nilit and of course can not speak very uutheiiticully even were they disponed to do so. 1 spoke with one of them who was formerly u merchant in some interior town in Georgia. I asked hi in if lie earn estly expected the South to maintain her position and conquer a recognition ? 'No,' replied he, I do not ; but wo will prolong tlm war till after the next Presidential election, which will result in the triumph of the pro-slavery party of tlio North, anil then a recognition of our rights will speed ily follow.' I tried to convince him that there wus no 'pro slavery parly In tho North the men who would luvor a re cognition formed n small class, not worthy the iiiiuio of a political party. Eut ho wloud not believe it. He lirmlv believed that iu tho ' pro slavery party in the North' the smith would tlud ner deliverer that tho North was hopelessly divided that our soldiery wero dissatisfied with tho con duct of tho wur, and till that was necessa ry was to prolong the struggle until their friends iu the JSorth could comu into pow er. And he represented, us he said, the views or tho entire botitii. Utir uoppcr heads can now see how much their ' frcc dom of speech and independence of t'e press' lias aided rebellion how many precious lives they nro responsible lor now many months nf bloody wur will rest upon their licmls." i .. ! .i , m H n. An old lawyer wus giving advice to his son, who was just entering upon the practice of ins father s profession : " My son," suid tho counselor, " if you havo a case where the law is clearly on your side, but justice seems to be against you, urge upon thejury the vast iinportutico of sustaining the law. ll. on the other hand, you uro in doubt about tho luw but your client's case is founded iii justice, insist on the necessity of uuiug jusiiee, iiinugu mo neuvens mil." IJut, uskeu the son, " how shall I man age n case where both law und justice are dead against me?'' ' In that ease, my son, talk roiiud It, tutu round it." Wombs im Giiu.h. Women ought to be of more importance to society thun girls ; but who does not know thut the case is ex actly tlio reverse? How many women do wo know who shrink from society, give their whole timo to fumily duties, bury themselves up ut home, und seem to bo of no other use in the world than to dress their girls for parties and keep the house in or der lor their beaux ; Ul course children grow up with the idea that mother is of no consequence, and don't know the world. They an ubrond for their oninious. and spurn all homo influences.
