Present. fog his fowling-plece, and aiming atone side o! ths snimal, Barnum cried out to bie partner, who was stauding near, “Now, look hers, you and I own this beast, he hay eaten up all Tam worth in the world, and run me in dobt to boot; T can't stand it any lon fer, and what is more, T won't. Ifyou don't bay ma out of this scrape, I mean to get myself out of it by shooting three or four bulleteinto my share of that aa- ly carcansthere,” At this speech Barnam's partner turned pale, looked earnestly at the future showman, ond after asking whathe miant by such conduct, as- tormuptod to see in lt @ very good Joko, A parley eusued, but Barnom unflinchingly stood his ground, and was about to carry his threat intoexecation, when his partner “caved in” and agreed to the terms that had been propounded. Latterly Barnum has had more faith in elephant showing, and not long since instructed his London agent to expend some $5,000 in the purchase of « diminutive elephant, which was im course o time shipped on board ef @ vessel bound to thiecity, The ttle animal was only three feet Lich, perfectly formed, and fully grown, On the passage thie groat curlosity elekened, and finally died, It le now an- nounced that the h'ds of this elephant will be stuffed for exhibition at tho Musoum, Our reporter says that Barnum does not feo! bad at this mishap, for the eroat showman gleefully tells his friends that he ts “rather glad of it, for the little wreteh won't cost me qugm@rog for hie board and not much for his lodwiug.” Depicarion oF A Catnoiic Cuurci,-= The new Church of St. Gabriel, ia 37th street, near Ist avenue, was yesterday solemnly dedicated by the Mort Kev.
