From the Memphis Appeal A Distinguished Jeremy Diddler.

Some time since we noticed the arrest of a man named Houser, in this city, for passing counterfeit money and obtaining goods under false pretences, and subsequently, announced Iils discharge, without trial. It seems from the following, which we extract from the lick man Argus, of Tuesday, that he has been swindling the good citizens there. He is an arrant knave, and his proper residence is cell
 n some penitentiary. We trust he will get his just deserts yet. Look out for him. The Ar gus says:
 "We understand some of our good citizens are considerably exercised just now on account of having been taken in and done for by an in- dividual who flouri~h,d here for few days in the latter part of March, and was toasted, lreIt- ed and lionized as Col. Yell, son of Gov. Yell of Arlla' sas, and all officer ln the late Mexican war It seems the individuals real name Is Uouser, or something of that sorI. He first made his appearance m Texas with his assum- cd name ant title, and endeavored to swindle an eijt0r out of d small sum, but didn't succeed. Our cOlrere puhlrhcI the letter and the rep v. Fms Was copied in the New Orleans Delta, with suitable comments. "Col. IelI'' next luuel up here, and diddlcd various O. our ci uzeus out of small Sums-oue out of SlJO; another of $50, one hotel of Sl5, and several others ot smaller sums. He went from this place to Columbus but did not succeed in dong" anybody there. probably because no. body had anything to spare. From there he took trip to Madrid Bend, of his doIng- in which place we are not advised He next turns up in CaIro from which place he tele- 5raphed abort week ago, to d not ,roua cour- tzau lu New Orleans to joit him in Chicago. Fms Is the last we have heard of him. We advise our friends of the Times and Democrat of that city. to look out for nin. He Is a tall luc-lookIn9 man, with dark complexion, dark ndir amt sleepy looking eye; sports a fine mus -ache, and is very fond of looking at h htlIe finger through the bottom ol all empty glass; Pass him round say we"

Mir. Ujjliard ssp got hiIns. There

Mr. lIilliard, in his speech at Montgomery, a few days ago, paid his respects to some of the Know Nothings who have been in such hot pursuit of him since the publication of his let ter in the Alabama Journal. His retort upon the correspondent of the Mail, who is said to be the editor of the Marion American, and who told the anecdote, the point of which was, that he (Mi HiIard) would "sm;le and bow if he met the devil" was decidedly healthy" It was Tn this wise, that, " at some time, he had probably condescended 10 speah Co the author ot hat article, who, hereto,e, inferred that he would salute the devil himself-Ma,1on (Ah ) Commonwealth.

OET Hon. H. B. Edmondson, of Crittenden county, one of the directors of the Memphis and Little Rock railroad, was in this city last week. We were gratifed to learn from him that the late legislation upon the subject of the swamp lands has proven much more satisfac. tory in his section of the State, than was anti cipated

A HANDSOME PREsENT-We were present. ed last week with a mammoth boquet of beau tliul flowers, by an accomplished female friend of this city, the perfume from which continues to fill our sanctun with the most delightful fra grance This example of kind remembrance IS, in our opinion, worthy of imitation, and we hope to be the recipient of many more such nreSents

@ The Baltimore Sun says.

"General Cass, it is said, exhibits surprising vigor, industry and endurance in his official labors. He rises and commences work at five, and is continually engaged, with small respite, till eight or nine at night. His diet is, how ever very sparlng, and he sticks still to cold water. Now and then he indulges in a cup Of coffee, the only exhiirating beverage which he can use"

Angling AmusementS.

If there is any amusement for which we have an inordinate pencbant, it is to retire from the hauntS of men, when the time is favorable and the leisure atfordel, and with rod and tack le seek some sequeStered bank of stream to spend the live-long day in angling. The late fishing parties from this city and their admira- ble success, have thoroughly awakened our love of the sport, and if we could only spare the time, the bright sunshine of this lovely Sa- turday morning would see us on our way to catch some of those beautiful trout we hear so much talk of But alas. for pleasure, the cares and pursuits of business thrust themselves in our way, and We must the while content our self in thinking of the wonderful exploits of others, and the delightful times they have on the banks of the meaudering stream or the shores of the expanded lake. It is among our most pleasant recollectious to call to mind the time when, in old IIemps'etl, we Were wont to trace its streams, all day at a time, in par suit of the fnny game which there aboun!s 1 Oh, well Go we remember the time-it is life 1 long remembrance. How much have We wished those happy hours could last forever, and with ! those from whom fate has severed us we ght stroll along at wil like the sylvan de ties of the olden time

Hon. l.. D. Evans on the Hastings asai,

Hon. l.. D. Evans on the Hastings again. The editor of the ClarksyiIIe (Texas) Stan. dard, in his editorial correspondence, written at Bonham on the 12th inst, gives the following account of Hon. L. D. Evans manner of ex- planing his political "whereabouts:"
 "Judge Evans arrived here yesterday morn ing and delivered a speech this afternoon to a
 large audience He Is probably disappointed in his reception here, having created no sensa- tion. His speech was in his usual bland and courteous style; had no especial strength of argument, or novelty of ideas to recommend it, except the novel idea that Mir. Pierces admin stration was not democratic, and that Mr. Buchanan's policy will be exactly the reverse, and that he, Ind ge Evans, Is the same sort of d democrat that MT. Buchanan S The effort was neither convincing nor persuasive, and only satisfied the audience that the Speaker was in a bad position, without means to get out of it. He insisted that he belonged to the democratic party, and had never been of any Other-Iid not in this connection however explain how such good old lihe democrat as he claimed to be, came to be the re 5ular nominee of the know nothing party, and was elected mainly by their votes, assisted by such democrats as were dupel nection with the order. He dellcatev avoiied all aliuson to the little deception then prac- ticed upon the democrats of Fauuin and other counties. A bu 4ler might have attempted ali eX ,anaton; the Judge very wisely left the appareu; inconsistency to be recoucIcd hy the ingenuity of hIs friends"

A Coop ONE.-Davy Crockett happened to be present at an exhibition of animals at one time, in the city of Washington, where mon key seemed to attract his particular attention, and he abstractly observed: eff that fellow had on pair of spectacles he would look like Major Wright"
 The Major happened to be just behind him. and tapped Davy on the shoulder. Turning around, Davy very formally remarked:

Swamp Land Pre- emptions Again.

The Auditor, after athorough analysis of the various pre- emption laws and more careful examination of all the provisions of the sup plemental swamp land law of January 18th, 1857, having become satisfied that too rigid construction was placed upon the tourteenh sec ton of said law, tending to render it imperative, has issued new and general instructions to the several land agents.
