The force at present here may be set down a
the following figures:
General Lyons Record.

Since General Lyon has become so terrible a
lion to the rebels of the West, inquiries are fire.
quently made i'll regard to his origin and past ca
reer. These inquiries are easily answered. Gen
eral Nathaniel Lyon is the son of a substantial
farmer of Ashford, Conn, and is the descendant,
paternally and materially, of families who were
distinguished for intellect and integrity of char
acter. His mother was of the Knowlton family,
which produced two of the distinguished officers
of the Reyolution-one, the famous Colonel
Knowlton, who, as Major, commanded the Con-
necticut boys at the Old Rail Fence on the left
wing of the American army at Bunker's Hill, and
Hights, New York.
Military Academy at West Point where he grad
uated with distinction in 1871, and has remained
in the army ever since, having risen to the rank
of captain in the Second Infantry and by the re-
cent choice of the Missouri volunteers has become
their Brigadier General He is now in the prime
of life as military commander, being forty two
years of age. He has had great experience in his
profession, especially in the rougher duties, which
fit him especially for his present position. His
service has been principally upon the frontiers
in Florida, Texas, California, Oregon, Kansas
and other Indian and border wars. He was with
General SCOTS division during the Mexican cam
paign and was brevetted August 20, lS47 "for
gallant and meritorious conduct in the battles OF
Contreras and Churubusco," and was wounded al
the Belen Gate of the city of Mexico, September
Is, lS47.
Gen. Lyon is the right man in the right place
He has a strong physical constitution, a high or
der of intellect, and an energy which knows nc
bounds. The government has only to give hin
the means and the liberty to act

Spanish Designs Mexico Giving
WArnfnR.

Some of the Mexican people, at least portion
of the educa,ed Mexicans, are looking forward
with anxiety to the time when Spain will again
occupy their fine country, either as conqueror or
protector. Whether there be proper ground for
such apprehensions not, the leading journals OF
the capital of the republic discuss the question
if an event of that kind were not only probable,
but of near approach. Nor must it be supposed
that an invasion q Apation of Spain would be
displeasing to the entire Mexican nation. The old
clergy conservative party desire and pray for it.
They the descendants of the old Castlian pro
prietors, with all the pride and bgotry of their
ancestors They stick to their old prejudices,
in politics well religion, with all the per
tinacious obstnacy and reverence which family
traditions and ancestral pride sure to engender
and perpetuate; and Mexican cavalier Of this
class, though gay and unprincipled ever was
buccaneer of the Spanish Main, not see a
statuette OF st. Francis overturned without feel
ing shocked. When, therefore, n new order OF
ideas arose. involving the destruction of converts
and conhscation of church property, even to the
sacred vessels OF the altar, it is not to be won.
dered at that the clergy party, as they have been
styled, should offer such stout resistance, the
late civil war evidences, or that, failing finally
they should look to Spain for the protection they
would naturally expect from their ancient mis-
tress, burning TO reassert her ancient empire and
Jealous for the religious faith she has always cher
ished
The occupation of Dominica is regarded by
the "watchman of the tower" as the harbinger OF
the ret e-conquest of Mexico, and, politically, the
key to the position for, the Heraldo says, Ill
the Powers of Europe and the United States dc
not oppose the occupation of Dominica, which
up to the present, has not been done, with what
reason, and under what pretext, can they Object
to morrow that Spain, European nation, by ex
tending her influence to Mexico, would greatly
diminish the American element" The Unitet
States seem to be particularly relied on by the
enemies of Spain in Mexico i'm such an emergen
cy; but the paper we have just quoted from re
marks significantly that "unless the preponder
ance of what was once the United States be re
established, this new political power on the aren;
of American politics (Spain) will end by enter
ing the republic" Important events thicker
now a-days; and this is only another of the man,
complications that will necessarily arise from ou
present distracted condition, and which must b,
met in some way or other: and it will be met, j

The Man with a snake in mi. Hat.

DR.. Dixon, in his New York Monthly Scalpel,
states that gentleman of the highest veracity
related to him the following snake story which
beats anything we have read lately:
Going into very public ordinary for his din
ner, he was surprised to observe the extra care
with which gentleman who took the seat oppo-
site him, took off his hat; he turned his head as
nearly upside down possible without breaking
his neck; then placing his hand over the inside OF
his hat, he again turned it, and received its care
fully guarded contents, concealed by a pocket
handkerchief, in his hand then gently laying the
back of his hand on the cushion, he slid the hat
and its contents off, and commenced dinner. The
attention of my friend was irresistably directed
toward the hat; and his surprise greatly increased
the reader may well imagine, on observing the
head of a sizeable snake thrust out and looking
sharply about him. The gentleman perceiving
the discovery, addressed him.

cnnat | went from Cincinnati to Carlisle Bar
racks, Pa, and from there started to New
Mexico to join our regiment, and have got this
far on our way. We are encamped on hill above
Kansas City, surrounded on every side by hot Sc
cessionists. We were sent here from Fort Leav-
enworth to fight the rebels. We came here on
the 18th inst, and since that time we have had
two forced marches. One day last week about
daylight, we were awakened by the bugler, and
received orders to prepare for march. We were
all ready in ten minutes to start. The whole COM
mand amounted to five hundred strong, all regu-
lars; and we were to march twenty -four miles and
fight one thousand rebels, who were camped at
Independence, Mo. We marched to the town,
but the rebels had got wind of our coming, some
way, and left. We paraded through the streets,
which were almost deserted; marched back to
their camp, which they left an hour before in q
hurry, camped there all night, and left next morn
ing for our own camp. We we're almost played
out, marching twenty -four miles In twelve hours,
footing it every step and carrying rifle.
The next expedition was more successful. On
the 18th of June, about midnight, we were arous-
ed from our sleep by the order, to arms, and were
prepared to march this time on five minutes no.
tce, with canteens and haversacks on our backs
and ratons for one day. We marched to the
river, and took possession of steamboat. We
went down the river about twenty miles, landed
about daybreak, marched about five miles in the
country and got on the scent of the traitors, and
took them completely by surprise; captured for
tytwo of them, and could have shot them down
like dogs, but were ordered not to fire. Our com.
pany marched to the center of the place with
their prisoners, (the town named Liberty

passing, and saw a most singular looking shelter
built in its branches. Il asked Okabi whether
the hunters here had this habit of sleeping in the
woods. but was told, to my surprise that this very
ingenious nest was built by the nshiego- mbouve,
an ape, as i found afterwards, which put in the
genus troglodytes, and called trOglodytes calvus;
an animal which had no hair on its head-so
Okabi told me-" 1t appears that the male and fe-
male gather together in the forests quantity of
leafy branches with which to make a roof, and
vines to tie these branches to the trees.
The tying is done so neatly, and the roof is
so well constructed, that until NJ. du Chaillu saw
the nshiego actually occupying his habitation, he
could scarce persuade himself that human hands
had not built it. 1t appears that the male alone
is the actual builder while the female brings him
the branches and the vines, acting in the inferior
capacity of holman. A shelter is built for each
on different trees if instinct had dictated the
arrangements recommended in Balzac's PhysiOl-
ogie, and this shelter throws off rain perfectly,
being neatly rounded at the top, evidently with
this intent. The nshiego is not gregarious, but
lives retired with his nshiego wife. NJ. du Chaillu
afterwards saw nests which were even quite soli-
tary, and were occupied by very old nshiegom-
bouves, whose slvery hair and worn teeth attested
their great age. "Thcse seemed hermits who
had retired from the nshiego world" On the
first occasion when the patience of the hunter
was rewarded by the appearance of roof, he
was ''as pleased man the world could well
hold I"

Washington Correspondence CIVIL
War Recognized by the Judiciary.

WASHINGTON, Friday, June IL
The decision rendered by Judge Dunlop, of the
United States District Court, in admiralty, upon
the case OF the schooner Tropic Wind and cargo,
settles the important fact that actually in
civil war 1t has been questioned heretofore
whether were in actual war or in a sort friot,
like Presidential election. At any rate it has
been doubted whether are in such state of
war as devoves upon the President all the pow
ers he has assumed calling out troops, increasing
the regular army, declaring blockade, &c.
But Judge Dunlop has placed the whole matter
in a strong and clear point of view. Without
arguing from the necessity of the case, or from
the inherent right OF Government to preserve
its existence he shows that the President has all
the powers that he has assumed The President
has the right, under the act of 1895, to decide
whether the exigencies contemplated by the act
of 1895 have arisen. So, whether insurrection
has grown to such head, become so formidable,
as 10 culmnate in civil war, is to be decided by
the same branch of the Government. The Judge
says that the facts set forth by the President
in his proclamation, with the assertion OF the
right of blockade, amount to a declaration
that civil war exists. The armies around US
show that civil war exists. The fact. is no.
torious, and blockade. as a belligerent right,
belongs to the Executive. This is the first jud
cial decision on the subject. There need be no
more doubts that we are in civil war nor there
De any uOuDts tnat OlOckade Is Delllgerent right
The U. S. Supreme Court will, no doubt, aifirn:
these views, in conformity with their prior deci-
sions-which are cited by Judge Dunlop.
Judge Dunlop expresses the hope that this sad
war, if it must go on, will be governed by the laws
of the war, and its ''evs mitgated by the princi-
piles of clemency engrafted upon the war code 10y
the civilization of modern times" / fear there is
little chance of this. 1t will be cruel and bloody
