DEAR BENNETT -
What has become of your late correspondent in

very numerous,) are looking daily for letter from
this place.
There is at present news enough to fill one CO.

There mas been much excitement here for
what is called, the great Choctaw contract. II was
supposed some two or three weeks since that had
been given to William Cost ohnson, OF Maryland,
and some Blk or seven others, from PitlsDurg,
Mississippi, and Tennessee, but some new lign,
having been thrown on the subject, the Secretary
Of War will most probably give It to Mr.. Tali-
cinnati, and one or two others. The contract IL
said to be very valuable one. II Is said that there
is some seven thousand to be removed over eight
hundred miles in wagon west OF the Mississippi,
and to be fed and clothed one year after their arl
val al their new home.
Great preparations are making here to attend the
Loco mass meeting at Baltimore tomorrow.

purported to represent a"Dwarf, and
Giantess Family" They were arranged
upon the stage as follows She that
was SAID to be the mother was stationed
near the centre, with an Infant in her
arms,-was the tallest and most mascu-
line appearing woman l ever beheld,
being nearer 7 than feet high. On the
right was one said to be the father, a
mere Dwarf whose height could not ex-
coed Al feet. On his right stood the
Giantess Girl, said to be the Daughter.
She was of fair features and complexion,
and full as tall as the mother. On the
left of the mother was three more Child
rem, (making 5 in ally the first a lad some
10 years old, and of ordinary size. The
second was one represented as the
Dwarf Girl )" the last was the " tall
Boy" He was of fair complexion,
very slim, and no appearance of being
any older than was represented. After
the performance closed (Which consisted
only of Songs and Ditties by the Mother
and lad next to her) the tall boy mingled
with the crowd in the Museum which
gave US all the chance we wished to
