"WHOLESALE AGENTS, NEW YOBK. 



The White Dog.— James S. Clark, the 

 well-known historian and antiquarian, has ac- 

 complished an end which he has heen endeav- 

 oring to obtain for the past six years, that of 

 obtaining a photograph and history of the 

 peace bells, owned by the Iroquois, Onon- 

 dagas, Senecas, Oneidas and Mohawks, and 

 and held in trust by the Onondagas. On 

 S aturday last, that tribe gave a burnt offering 

 to the Great Spirit, at the reservation, north 

 of Syracuse. Isaac G. Garfield, of Syracuse, 

 who possesses great influence with the In- 

 dians, offered his assistance in procuring a 

 picture of the belts. At half-past. 12 o'clock 

 the Indians assembled in the old council-house 

 and began their ceremonies, which consisted 

 of incantations and the like. A pure white 

 dog, without a colored hair on it, was the 

 sacrifice. During the exercises the animal 

 was strangled, and when the order was gone 

 through with, the Indians emerged from the 

 council-house. One of them bad the dog 

 thrown across his shoulders. The procession 

 passed to and through the new council-house, 

 around the outside and back to the old council- 

 house. They walked around this and pro- 

 ceeded to the fire midway between the two 

 council houses. On this the dog was cast 

 amidnummery and manifestations. The ani- 

 mal was allowed to remain until it was burned 

 to ashes. This ceremony is appointed by the 

 chief to take place on a certain day, and all 

 who wish may participate : but each must ■ 

 bring a gift from his own possessions. The 

 chiet requires a certain thing which he asserts 

 the Great Spirit tells him in a dream. When 

 in council, the chief goes to one Indian and 

 asks what he has got. If that is not the article, 

 he asks another and so on, until he comes to 

 the one who possesses the required object. 

 It Is claimed that the Great Spirit dictates to 

 the person who has the right thing, what the 

 chief wants. In order to let the Great Spirit 

 know that the article has been obtained, a dog 

 is burned, and the soul of the dog takes the 

 word to the Great Spirit. At half-past 2 

 o'clock the exercises concluded, and Mr. 

 Wright pinned the belts on a piece of cloth 

 and secured a negative of them. The belts, 

 twelve in number, are made of beads formed 

 of shells and fastened on with fine buckskin 

 thread and closely woven. The largest is 

 some four feet long and twenty inches wide. 

 They diminish in size to two feet in length 

 and three inches in width. The belts are em- 

 bellished with figures and characters, consist- 

 ing of men, wigwams and hieroglyphics. 

 They are kept in a bag made of wood-fibers 

 closely woven together, which has the appear- 

 ance of coarse sacking. These belts, as has 

 been stated, belong to the Iroquois nation, and 

 some of them are over six hundred years old. 

 They are preserved with zealous care, and 

 heretofore the white man has never been 

 allowed to touch them. Gen. Clark has 

 achieved quite an accomplishment, and it is 

 expected that he will soon lay his interesting 

 researches before the public— Auburn (N. 

 Y.) Avburnian. 



Animals Sensitive to Ridicule. — Mr. 

 Sidney Buxton, in one of his amusing papers 

 on animals in the Animal World for Febuary, 

 says that dogs and horses are, as far as he 

 knows, the only animals sensitive to ridicule, 

 while cats and birds are wholly unaware that 

 they are being laughed at. He tells of a pony 

 of his own which gets very cross when dis- 

 paraging remarks are made upon him, and 

 " becomes furious, and stamps about his stall, 

 putting back his ears, and attempting to bite" 

 if he is openly laughed at, while praise greatly 

 pleases him. The truth is, that it is only those 

 creatures which can feel sympathy with men 

 which can also appreciate ridicule. The horse 

 sympathizes evidently with maDV of his rider's 

 feelings and amusements, while The dog can en- 

 ter into no small proportion of his feelings. 



But birds and cats, though often exceedingly 

 affectionate, and full of attachment to indi- 

 viduals, hardly ever attempt to enter into 

 human feelings— as Cowper'sdog "Beau," for 

 instance, entered into the poet's desire to pos- 

 sessess himself of the water-lily. The hatred 

 of ridicule always accompanies a capacity for 

 sympathy. Certainly dogs, and probably 

 horses, know the difference between being 

 laughed at in derision, as we laugh at a fool, 

 and being laughed at in admiration, as we 

 laugh at a good comic actor, and enjoy the 

 latter as much as they resent the former. It 

 is questionable, however, whether some par- 

 rota do not understand and enjoy the practice 

 of making fun of their human acquaintances 

 — do not appreciate the art of duping, and 

 take pleasure in it.— Spectator.

Crab. — A land crab, of about 24 inches be- 

 tween extremes, captured in the garden of 

 N. A. Bascome, Esq., Port Royal, on Sat- 

 urday last, was brought to our office yes- 

 terday. Young clucks and chickens in the 

 parden had disappeared most unaccountably, 

 and on the above day a man and women met 

 the crab and were awfully frightened as he 

 approached them, with his extended claw wide 

 open ; the man ran for his life, but the woman 

 took up a large stone and struck the crab on 

 its back and checked its progress ; it was soon 

 killed. It had two large claws, but one some 

 six times as large as the other. —Bermuda
