BUCK TAYLOR.

The public who take an interest in Buffalo Bill's Wil West Show will hear with pleasure that Buck Taylor, the Cowboy King, has so far recovered from the accident he sustained during an entertainment about two months ago as to be able to leave the hosptial. It will be in the recollection of most people that in the course of the performance of one of the equestrian dances, known as the "Virginia Reel," Buck Taylor met with an accident which broke his leg, and caused removal to the West London Hospital. He remained in that institution till this morning, when he left with one or two of his friends, in a cab, and returned to his quarters in the Wild West encampment. He was met on his arrival by Buffalo Bill, who gave a most hearty greeting to his old chum, and expressed himself pleased to see him once more in their midst. The welcome was general all round, and during the hand shaking which went on the Cowboy Band played a pleasant and cheering serenade in honor of the return of their chief. Buck is now thoroughly convalescent, and looks extremely well, and is quite cheery. He con not, of course, as yet expect to resume his old place amongst the Wild West performers, but there is every hope that are long he will be sufficiently recovered to get about with ease and freedom. -London News.
