Tho Hippopotamus Although the hippopotamus may be less loathsome than the crocodile, Sir S. Baker writes that "there Is no animal that he dislikes more than tho hippopotamus, If he was com pelled to travel at ninht upon nn Af rican river in an ordinary boat.' Even without this limitation the hip popotamus seems rennrkably danger. iiui Sir & Uaker tells how in broad daylight a hippopotamus charged the steamer that was towing his dlah beeab, and perforated the Iron piatts of tho vesel in two places with its projecting tusks, t-o that it made a dangerous leak, (in another oca 6lon, when the steamer passed over a hippopotamus that-was walking ta'.t t the manner of the next) under water ulong the led of the rner, the steam er of one hundred and ei-lit to:is gave a leap into the ulr, as the water was too shallow to term it the hippo pot a tuns to pass beneath the keel. What became of the hippopotamus was not ascertained. On an itlier occasion a tnll Hppo potamus charged the dlahWeah in the middle of tnc night and sank the boat that was fastened alongside by biting a lar"' piece out of it. Not gatisllcd with this success, it then charged the Iron vessel, an 1 would ussuiedly have sunk hor if Sir S. Faker had not si- ''K1 the onset 1 y a (-hot in the skull wit!) his riile. He calls the animal "a ii'ldly ler.i. cious" win n It is in th" water, tli'HH'.i it is comparatively Mimr- us mi land. On one occasion he c.w a man in a boat wantonly attacked and killed I y a hlppopo'.umus. The llamiati Arabs and S'lii; of the tribes attack t.,e hippopotamus with their h.irpoui, and when the least has been tlmsi-e-cure'y hooked they drag it on shore and slay it with their spears, wbi'e theybal'f blind it by ttrowin,' sai: I in its eyes. Hut the liipjn .tatn i sometimes gets tho better or tle-iii and escap' s. Sir S. liaker stitos a curious fact concerning a commercial chaise that has affected the hlpi opoi am us. I'ihiu tr!y its tisks, or iar -.can 1 promiti. tit teeth, were in ureal request !-y dent ists to make ai tillci il teeth. Th y were superior to ivory in the p.' ma nence ot th Ir c-'lor, and ilie.v never turned yellow. Hut the Ann-it ,n Invention of porclaln ename! fur artitlci.il teeth has destroyed the vai lie of the hippo; ot mm-.' tusks, ;t;.d they are now cheat, er than ivory.
