 Natural History.-The editor of this na- per received from friend in Missouri. pre- served in spirits, specimen of the reptile called the Horned Lisdrd, or Horned Frog, as 1t has been usual 10 call it, the existence of which has recently been by many, considered fabulous. This specimen was, with some others, picked up in the prairies of the Upper Arkansas, and lived 1 from April to December, 1890, without either food or drink. How long these ani- mals conld th'ls live on the decomposition ofthe atmosphere, has not been yet deter mined, but 1t IS presumed by our western friend, that in proper temperature they might be made to live for years It is said that the sprinkle Of a few drops of rain would kill them: and the Indians say that on the approach Of rain, the lizards may be seen seeking protection and shel- ter under stones, logs of wood, &c.--.Ma- tionat Itettigeacer.

 We are unable to voueh for tho accura- cy of the following article, which is going the rounds of the newspapers:- "We were favored by yesterdays mail with a letter from New Orleans of the 1st instant, [Julyl in which we find that an important discovery had been made few days previous in that city.

 Poputatson of Russia.--By the official census, made by the year 1929, 1t would seem that the human resources of this ri- gantic empire, have been greatly overra- ted. The whole amount of this popnla- tion IS 4o,G00 coo, including IT ,559. .s9s serfs and free iaborers, and 249 ,,148 cIer. gy; and, in the amount, Poland, Finland the tribes beyond the Caucasus, the civil 1 and military services, and some Siberian hordes are comprised.
