A QUESTION FOR LAwYEEs.-A nice question in
law saws the Savannah Republican, is about to grow
out of the finding of $4,000 Of the money stolen
from the Marine Bank Agency, at Columbus, Ga.
1t seems that negro, in crossing small ditch over
which planls were laid saw the end Of a newspa-
per projecting from under them. His curiosity was
elected. and pulling the paper out, he discovered
more money than his mind ever conceived the world
contained. Honest Sambo brought the matter to
light. ard now the reward is claimed by both his
hirer and owner and the Bank will pay neither
until the question Of right is decided. Who shall
have it. We say Sambo. The Luo will doubtless
say somebody else, most probably the hirer.

The larger portion Of tie sketches contained IN
this volume were contributions made by the author
the New York Spirit Of The Times few years age,
under the title Of Camp Fire-Stories.' They are,
numberless, as good as new, ard form one OF the
MISUNDERSTANDING books issued from the press IN many
a day. These stories are made up Of pleasant re-
miniseences of hunting life and adventure In the
peninsula Of Florida and counterparts Of tales,
some Of them remembered, some Of them faneIed,
that frontier hunters tell when assembled at night
around their eamp-fres And the author tells US he
believes the spirit Of the tales, the description Of
natural scenery. and the fragments Of Indian hsto-
~ to be correct and that he has carefully striven
not to offend the keen observation and long expe-
rience Of his hunting comrades atthe South whose
eyes viii scrutinize the pages Of his book by any
alusion to natural history which is not exactly
true.
