A great catastrophe occurred recently at the Zoological Gardens. There is thero an elephant who eats buns out of your hat. Lord Northbrook, who had heard of this, bought a bun, put it in his bat, and gracefully presented the dish to , the elephant. But unluckily this happened to be the wrong elephant, and one whose education has been neglected—for he took the hat and bun together, handed them into his capacious mouth, and munched them contentedly amid the inextinguishable laughter of the onlookers. .■ Lord Northbrook has not yet recovered from the effects of this laughter, and I strongly recommend eTerybody to desist asking him "How about the elephant ?" —Vanity Fair.
