getting paid off, the territory OF Uncle Sam
was ruthlessly invaded and the rules of the Navy
Yard set at defiance by . female heroine, in the
person of Mrs. W., widow, "fat, fair and for
ty," who walked into the yard with cowhide
under her cloak, and straightway proceeded to
the object of her search, q Mr.. P. Having found
him, she uncloaked her cowhide and unceremo.
niously applied it to his head and shoulders with
q vigor that could not be surpassed by even q
brawny truckman. Not satisfied with one
fagellation, she returned after dinner and
again applied her cowhide to the head and
shoulders Of her victim with renewed vigor and
after she got through with the second chastise-
ment she declar. d she would come every day
until she got six dollars, which she averred was
due to her for house rent, or bave the worth of
it out of hide. Truly, the age Of heroines has
not gone by.-Boston Herald, March s.

Land Warrant Decision.

The following curious case is related in
Thompson's BankNot Reporter:
"A soldier Of the Mexican war, instead of re-
porting himself to his family on going home,
quietly settles in the West and obtains his
bounty land warrant. His wife, living in an
Eastern State, presuming herself to be widow
Of some six years standing, applied for Wild
ow's warrant, and got it. Both warrants have
been sold, located, and returned to Washing
ton for patents, when it is discovered that two
warrants have been issued where only one
should have been. The Commissioner refuses
to grant patent for the land which is located
with the widows warrant:
"There are great many difficulties SPRING
ing up in relation TO land warrants, and the De-
partment at Washington is disposed to adhere
to legal technicalIties, and overlook the equity
of the parties, even though the wrong original

them that would strike the canine olfactories.--
Nevertheless, what ws have related ID fact,
