ANIMoaTAr T AnmTr6v IoTasBroar Bnannsso.Every body in town is familiar with the boilding,now approaching completion, at the corner of Campand Common streets; the basement of which 1o soonto be consecrated as a temple of fashion by thatclothingohouse of contry-wlde fame, Alfred Moonroe& QCosgpy.. The "Story Building," for such is itsname, is a sort of cross between a house and a crystalpalace i.). only entire strocture of iron and glaum inNew Of is; the loftiest and beyond all questionthe most beantiful and airy commercial edifice in theSouthern country ; a building which will long be apride to the city, and anobject of admiration to vislt-Ing strangers.

The building being so perfect in all respects as abuilding, our readers will naturally expect to knowwhat we mean when we speak of an important addi-tion being madetoit. Wedonot meanany strotoralImprovement, for that would be impossible; we mean,if not literally an improvement, a great acquisition sofar as concerns the occupancy of the upper stories ofthe Story Bil2ling. That popular and time-honorededucational institution, so long one of the prominen-cies of Canal street, Dolbear's Commercial College,will hereafter adorn and lntellectualize the upper partof the building; so that it may be well styled a twin -temple of fashbion and learning; superioial or per-sonal adornment to be acquired in the clothing storebelow, and actual or intellectual adornment to begained in the college above.

Of the great value of Dolbear's Commercial Colleg ato the city and the State and.tothe Southern country,we neednotapeak atlength. Foryears ithaspurauedthe quiet, even tenor of its way, imparting to youngmen all that Instruction which leads to success incommercial life; sunch as penmanship, book-keepingin all its branches, mathematics, and the modern lan-goages; each branch of education taught separatelyfrom the other,in separate apartments,by eperincedprofessors; the division of time such that a man maystudy one or all the branches, as he sees proper; thesystem in every respect perfect and admirable, andthe satisfaction of all who attend invariably complete.The College was founded twenty-seven years ago;and ever since then,it has been sending forth a regualar succession of young men, who, with their goodeducation, and beginning rightly, at the bottom ofthe ladder, as clerks and book-keepers, have risen tosituations of honor and eminence in the commercialworld, and In many cases to that competency andwealth which constitute the aim of all who embarkIn commercial life. It is not an unfair computationto state that at least two thousand of the former-pupilsof Dolibar's Commercial College are now engaged inlucrative bosiness, in this city and the surroundingcountry.

Such an institution as this should hale all the ad-vantages of a central situation, convenience in itseducational arrangements, and general airiness, com-fort and safety. All these requisites are happilyblended in the Story Building; if Mr. Dolbear hadhimself built it on purpose for a college, he could nothave made it suit better. His college will add to thereputation and fame of the building, already famousas a chefid'uare of architectural beauty and modernimprovement.

The college rooms have entrances on both Campand Common streets. The public, and young menin particular, who may not be perfect in their com-mercial acquirements, will do well to go and take alook at the College in its new locality.

IRUBARB CHAnPAraN. - The Pie Plant Wine,manufactured by Mir. J. Eshelby, seems to be gettingsome reputation abroad as well as at home. Thefollowing notice of itis from the Gardener's Monthly,published in Philadelphia:

We are indebted to a friend in Cincinnati for anopportunity of tasting the celebrated Champagnewine, manufactured by J. Eshelby of Cincinnati,fromthe ordinary Rhubarb or Pie Plant.

In taste and flavor it closely resembles SparklingCatawba, except that it leaves a slightly bitter endastringent taste in the month, which prevents it be-ing insipid. It is very clear and beautiful, and putupin precisely the same style as the best French Cham-pagnes. We understand from our friend, who is en-tirely disinterested, that it commands a ready sale,and at nearly the same rates as the Sparkling Catawhb.

A HAnn D Sfi.-Speaking of the prize fight betweenBurns and Conners, on Eagle~rland, an Alton (Ill.)paper sayn:

It was a sight yesterday, those two old dingysteamboats, with their throng of people, en route-tothe prize fight, as they touched at the Alton levee.A harder looking crowd has never looked Alton in theface, outside of the Penitentlary. A friend informsous that he made an actual count ofa part of the boot,from the shore, and found one hundred and sixty-twoof them with each an eye gouged out! We do notvouch for the statement, but from all accounts it wasthe hardest looking assemblage ever seen in theseparts.

THE ARTESIAN WELL ATP COLUoBtUS, OHI0O-This"great bore " has got to the depth of 2025 feet, andis progressing at the rate of four feet in twenty-fourhours.

On Faturday, Professor T. G. Woreley made seve-ral experiments, with the following results, which hekindly furnished us. He says that the pressure persquare inch at the bottom is Si1 pounds, or 125,000per square yard.

First Experiuent.-Three bottles, two of themhermetically sealed, were placed in the pump andsunk to the bottom of the bore. When withdrawnthey were crushed to powder. The other, whichwas closed with a strong cork, had it forced in, andthe bottle pulverized.

Second Experi•nt.--Two very strong cut-glassbottles were used. One of them was croshed ; theother, a very small and thick one, was forced half-fullof water, but not broken, and the cork remainedfirmly fixed in the neck. The water forced into thebottle at the great depth of 2025 feet, or over threc.eighths of a mile, wan as pore and limpid as thepurest spring.

A Dgeraaan Soroing was peptrated on Mndaynight, by a Frenchman named Constant Courteaad,33 years of age, living on Laarpe street, betweenPruer and Roman, Third Distriot. He had for sometime been aflicted with Inesmlty; had but reeeltlybeen discharged from the Insne Asylam ;adManeereturning to live with hi wife, had brought abouthis old spells bya too free indnlgeneein llq.r, whichhad been their original ause.

At ten o'clock, having retired to baed, be sprang upwith fearful screams, saying that his enemies wereafter him; aend to the great terror of his wife, heseined a knife and began trying tostab balself. Mrs.Conrteand prang to him,and sneerbded in gettingthe knife from him. He then from the hoesoandplunged into the gutter, which, wide and deep, wasfull of the day's rain. Hit wife cried for help ;:aneighbor, Mr.Fouamde, came, al the two sooneededin dragging the maniac from the gutter and takinghim into the house, His wife lefthl•.temporarily inFouoadea charge, while she went to get something tofasten the door; during her absence, the manitaeseized Foocade,overpowered him, and ran from thehouse and plunged into the gutter a second time. .Again he was pursued; but his poor wife was now

powerless from fright and excttement,and Foucade'sunaided efforts failed to drag him out till after he hadsucceeded in drowning himself. His determinationto die, or to hide himself from his imaginary enemies,was indeed extraordinary. The second time heplunged into the gutter, he ducked hie head under;and it was found that he bad kept it under by firmlygrasping the gram and weeds at the sides, and hold-ing himself under.

Deputy Coroner Weyshbm yesterday held an.In-quest on the body,and returned the proper verdict.

ANOvrmT VIcrTI too strong drink has been claimedin the person of a Mrs. King, who on Monday nightfell into the street from the gallery of her residence,at the corner of Claiborne and t.

TaE COBONEa yesterday held an inquest on thebody of Patrick Irvin, found dead at the corner ofBlenville and Tontt streets. Verdict, apoplexy.

Tax Exc unsIO or Horn HOOK AND LADDIEConraur No. 3 to Lake Borgne, on Sunday, was areally pleasant affair. It was the first annual turnoutof that company during its nine years' existence, and,for a feature, was a target excursion also. The boys,many of whom have seen military service, took alonga lot of muskets and a target, and going to the depot,in their fire uniform, marched in military style. Inacceptance of a polite invitation, the Crescent localmanaged to get offand accompany them.Quite a number of ladies, the wives and daughters

of the firemen, went along, occupying a car to them.selves, and apparently enjoying the excursion verymuch. The Mexican Gulf Railroad we found to bethe same old fashioned concern that it was when wepassed over it ten years previously. The track, withits limber superstructure and fiat band-rails, we foundundulatory enough; keeping the cars rocking andjumping, forbidding standing or walking about, andalmost inducing seausickness. A very moderate rateof speed is requisite to safety, and the desire of safetyis all that forbids impatience at the long time takenup by the ron of twenty.eight miles. The cars, too,are old-fashioned and uncomfortable; and in severalstorms of rain through which they passed, showedthemselves to be anything but watertight If therailroad only had a firmer and smoother track, andmore roomy and convenient cars, we believe it woulddo thrice its present business; for it passes thrggha beautiful and interesting country, and terminatesat one of the pleasantest and healthiest shores to befound.

The greater part of the way the road rune througha succession of cane and cornfields, orchards, gardens,and delightful shaded residences. Below the culti-vated district, the road passes through a cleft in theswamp, so narrow that the trees brush the cars onboth sides, and give the track two tall perpendicularwalls of living green, just as if a thin slice had beencut out of the forest with some gigantic knife. Inthis part the mosquitoes are terrible, in both numberand ferocity. No one should go down with very thinclothes on or low-quartered shoes; the pestiferousinsects speedily find all such, and proceed to perforateas soon as they alight. It was rich on Sunday to seeManeiri'e band performing with the bloodsuckerssettlingon them in swarms. The only one who couldkeep them off was the big drummer, who, withoutmissing a note on his drum, nearly beat his head offwith quick extra licks of his mallet on his throat,face, and back of his head. The sparks from thelocomotive, though bad enough, were not half as badas the mosquitoes. The ladies, however, seemed tobe most troubled by the sparks; we mean the sparkswhich were in the forward cars, with straw hats andred shirts on.

On arrival at the lake, the ladies were duly quar-tered at the Ocean House, and the boys went downthe beach and had their target exercise. The distancewas sixty yards. Some few did very good shooting ;a few more did good ordinary; and quite a crowdshot awfully. Mr. Leduc won the first prize, aslyer medal gotten up for the occasion; Mr. Tracywon the second, a sumptuous affair of brass ; and forthe leather medal there were no less than twelve can*didates. The bad shooting stimulated so much ridi-cule, that the boys commenced shooting at eachother's straw hats, and succeeded in ventilating someof them handsomely. Dave Bradbury had his hatshot four times; twice whilst hanging on a peg, andtwice whilst on the wing, or whirling up in the air.This kind of fun was kept up for some time; othersof the company going out sailing and bathing, andperambulating the shades, shells and shanties of oldProctorville. In our round, we took the followingcensus of the place: Human inhabitants, nearly allamiable Dagoes in the fish business, with one hotel-keeper and one grocer and coffee bouse keeper, and afew niggers, about 50; cows, sheep and goats, about50 ; dogs and eats, about 100 ; duks, geese, choick-ens and turkeys, about 200; buzzards and seas-glls,several more hundred; and pelioans, several. Totalpopulation of Proctorville, (exclusive of the fish,oysters and shrimps in the lake, they being uncount-able) upwards of 1000.

After the ladies had their dinner at the hotelthetables were respread for the compa•y and theirguests. The dinner was sumptuous and well-cooked,and consisted of all possible kinds of flsh, done up in

THe CALIFOrIA COYOTE.-A California paper hasthe following :

The Coyote is abundant in the State, and occupiesthe same place here occupied in the M lppiValley y the prairie wolf. Dr. Newberry thinks thetwo belong to the same species, but we are inclinedto think that they are epeclfically dif[reot. Thecolor of the Coyote has more of a reddish tinge, hedoes not bark so much, and howls more, and is moreconning. These difberences are not senfiolent to provea specific distinction, but they make it probable thatthere is sahob a distinction; more especially whenconsidered in connection with the facto that no care.ful anatomical comparison of the two animals hasyet been made, and that there are few speoies ofanimals or vegetables indigenous in both Californiaand the Missiessippi Valley.

The Coyote, in size andform and general appearance, has a strong resemblance to the prairie wolfand jackal, and has a similar mean, cowardly din.position and dirty habits. His food consists chieflyof rabbits, gres•e, small birds, mice, lizards, frogs,and in time of ecarcity, he will eat carrion, grans-hoppers and bugs. He is very fond of poultry, peaand lambs, and will destroy almost as many of themas a fox would. Indeed, he is the Iaremer'e worstenemy, His methodof catching ching chickens is, y,to hide near the hen roost about daylight, and, a tihonens come down, to pounce out on them from hishiding place ; and his motions are often so qunick thatthe victim has not even time to squall baforea shedies. In the spring and autumn. when geese andducks are abundant,many Coyotes make their homesin the tomes, where they catch the birds which havebeen wounded by the hunters.

The Coyote loves nothing better than pyung pig.When he sees an old sow with her young ones, hewill hide and run the chances of having a little onecome within his reach; but if there be no htdingplace he goes up boldly. The sow will at once facehim, and start to attack him. He runs from her andallows her to come up within a few feet of him andthen moves off slowly, and she, like a fool, thinkingshe will catch him, continues the chase. While run-ning, he keeps his head turned to one side, partly towatch her and partly to watch thb pigs; and whenhe has seduced her far enough away, he suddenlymakes a dash at the pigs, and getting one of them,he rune off with it, leaving the agonized and furioussow far behind. If the Coyote does not succeed ingetting a pig at the first attempt-that is if he doesnot lead the sow far enough away, he tries it again,and again, till he succeeds, the sow being stupidenough to follow him after having repeated opportu-nities to see his purpose.

The Coyotes usually go in packs and sometimeswill undertake to attack a cow. On such occasionsthey have a concerted plan of operatlons; they eaurround their intended victim, and while thoee la frontrush at her as a feint, theose behind attempt to cuther hamstrings, and as their teeth are verysharp theyoften succeed. The cow's hamstrings once out, heis at their mercy. The Coyote is a great thief, andwill steel the pillow from under a sleeping man'shead; for it happens in California that bags of po-visions are often used as pillows. When the Coyoteis hungry, he will knw anything that is greasy, anfor that reason he frequentl cuto in two the hemand rawhide ropes whereby horses are tied outnight; but he never bites into their hair ropes which,for that reason,were formerly used almost excoalvelyfor staking out horses.

The Coyote is noctornal in his habits, and is veryfond of howling or yelping. He begins with a shrlnquick bark, aondfollows up with a sccession of yelps,ending In a long drawn quavering howl, at times in-describly melncholy. When one begis, all othersin hearing take oup the cry. Ten years ago, thetraveler In the Sacramento valley never passed anight without hearing their music. They are notquite so numerous now, but still they are abundant,and are frequently seen in the most densely settledportions of the country.
