The circumstances relating to this melancholy

hunters, one of them set up a ho,c,lng, after the
manner OF IA wolf, and was answered by the

ner until they approached each other within a
very short distance. The father had hid him
self behind log, placing brush upon his back
to disguise himself 50 that when the wolf, las
ne supposed came near enough TO shoot, it
would not be frightened away. Having rails
ed himself little for that purpose, the son
observing the motion, fired, taking the Object
fired at to be wolf. The ball entered tn.
right side of Ike neck and passed out at the
left hip. The son, on finding what had hap

Our ARmY.-It would appear from the
general order " from the Adiutant Generals
Office of the 18th August, 1921" signed "by
order of Major General Brown" that Robert
butler, who was placed upon the army regis
Ter of the 1st ofJune 1921, as Col. of the 18th
Rcgt of Infantry and who was regularly
mustered as such, has been reduced from that
grade to that of lieutenant Col. of the first
regiment. We are at a loss TO conjecture I'M
der what authority this singular promotion
oackiOdrds has been made. That General
Brown, or even the President himself, has the
power to degrade any officer except by the
decision OF court MARTIAL by any law, we
most positively deny, and we can scarcely be-
heve 1t possible that the President of the IL. S.
has gwen his sanction to proceeding so out
rageOus, and so revolving to the feelings of an
honorable officer. The President has in
some Instances, exercised the power of striking
officers from the rolls of the army but if he
even possessed this power, which we consider
questionable, without the decision of a court
martial, IT should e,cxercised with great eau
ton. We recOllect an instance which occurred
during the late war, when highly meritorions
and gallant officer, was dismissed the service
by the President upon the recommendation
0i General Brown, and upon an investigation
0l the circumstances sometime after. it was
clearly established that so far from deserving
censure for the affair in which for some
unaccountable cause his general had succeed
cd I'D having him disgraced, he as richlydcsery-
ed breVet as any officer who had received
that honor on that day. Communicated.

was its virtues, the plaintiff would be
good enough to ship off a cargo Of his
medicine 20 the Kingdom of Naples, and
inspire its inhabitants to the vigorous as
sertion of its political rights. On this oc
casion he could not refrain from relating
story of the celebrated DR.. Solomon,
who amassed an immense fortune by his
Balm of Gilead, which he sold at los. sd
a bottle.
The Doctor had shipped cargo of it for
America, estimating each bottle at one shil-

the Doctors object, and that the medicine
was worth great deal Eore, made seiz.
ure OF the cargo, and the Doctor refusing to
pay the duty, be said he would let theoficer
have the cargo at . shilling bottle, and
the officer according ly took il. The Doctor
then shipped another and larger cargo,

that il was not genuine, adding that he was
