dfc Nicholas’ Magazine records that there is in Oregon a most extraordinary horse that rejoices in the possession of the longest foretop, mane, and tail in the world. He was born about seven years in ago the State of Oregon, and when about four years old his mane and tail grew so rapidly—often as much as 3 inches a month —that in three years they reached their present astonishing growth. His tail is now 9ft. long, bis foretop is 2£Eeet long, while his mane measures exactly 7 feet LO inches. Linus, as he is called, is perfectly formed, and weighs about 14001 b. His “ body color ”is a glossy golden chestnut; he has white hind feet and a white face, and his tail, and foretop are of a soft flaxen colbur. .. His hair, which is “ done up” when, bo is not receiving visitors, continues to grow though not very slowly. Aside from his remarkable hair, Linus is certainly a beautiful animal. He is proud, carries bis head high, and enjoys admiration with all the intelligence and pride of his race.

The decision in the case of “ Sharp v. 'Wakefield.” is a serious blow to the brewing interest, and clears away at a stroke the chief obstacle in the path of temperance reform. It has now been settled once and for all that a publican has no vested right in his license whatever. The licensing authorities now are the Justices. Shortly they will be elective Boards. Their discretion must be used, says the Lord Chancellor, “not arbitrarily, vaguely', fancifully, cr according to private opinionbut regularly and according to the rules or reason and justice. AVben, therefore, a local area decides by popular vo;e that it wants the number of public bouses redeed, ibe licensing authorities will, in the spirit of the Chancellor’s words, reduce the number accordingly, and the brewers will have no reason to complain. All talk of “compensation” i;i the sense of redress for the abolition of a legal right is now absurd. And Mr Gladstone was entirely right in describing Mr Goschen’s scheme as one. nob of compensation but of endowment. —Tall Mall G-azette.
