nea-T The Omnipresent negro meets
our Generals in all possible positions,
and, with many of them, causes great
reimbursement" \ few days ago, as
the Steamer Baltimore arrived at Balti-
more with Regiment of L. S. Troops,
from Fortress Monroe, it was ascertained
that eight slaves of the rebels had Sc
creted themselves on board, with the
view of escaping from the clutches of
Jeff. Davis army, where they were COM
PEELED to work in building breastw orks
from which our volunteers might be
the more safely shot.
They probably thought, in their Afri
can stupidity, that, as the Z. s. forces
seemed to be at war with their masters,
they would find, not only protection for
the present, but safety for the future, if
they could rea ch our camp. Poor sim
pie fools! They ought to have known
better! AS soon as discovered they we're
handed over to the police of Baltimore
to be imprisoned until an opportunity
occurs of sending them back to finish
the works of the rebel armiesl
My-We thought the Northern allies of
the rebels could tell the biggest lies in Or
der to serve the cause by exciting preju-
dice against the Administration But
We very much doubt whether the Rich
mond Examiner can be beat by any
thing in Ohio. For instance, it pub
fishes, as an absolute fact, and about
which there is no controversy, that
Beauregard, at the battle of Manassas,
captured hrty-t,co thousand hand cuffs!
which Gen. Scott had prepared with
which to manacle the prisoners he ex-
pected to take!
Now we submit, after that, if it is
worth while to employ Northern fun
keys to lie when it can be done so we'll
at home?

'sThen (giving sagacious look to the Court)
we are to understand that you employ dishon-
est people to work for you, even after their
rascalities are known Z"
"Of course how else could get assistance
from lawyer ?''
The counsellor said ssstand aside,'' and in a
tone which showed that if he had the witness
head in bark mill no mercy might have been
expected. The judge nearly choked himself
in futile attempt to make the spectators be-
lieve that laugh was nothing but ai.iccough,
while the witness stepped off the stand with all
the gravity of fashionable undertaken.

A Coon SToRY.-The Charlestonians tell a
good story at their own expense, which well
illustrates the want of discipline. A company
was Keeping guard at the Arsenal. The Col
onel of the Regiment passing by, saw the SEN
tinel inattentive to his duty. He took away
his gun, then entered the Arsenal. A subor-
dinate officer was concocting a cocktail.

The Colonel went up stairs, and found the

EIGHT TO ONE.-One ofEllsworth's Zouaves
at Alexandria relates that as the federal troops
entered Alexandria, the rebel soldiers scram-
bled hastily on board a railroad train which
stood ready at the other end of the town, and
in their hurry to depart forgot the mail bag.
The Zouaves secured it as a trophy, and sum-
mariy cracked it open. Among its contents
was letter from the rebel officer in command
at Alexandria, addressed to his superior in the
Virginia lines, running somewhat after this
fashion: 'sSend eight thousand troops here
Immediately. We are momentarly expect
ing the arrival Of one thousand Zouaves from
Washington"
Eight thousand against one thousand is
therefore regarded the proper proportion.
The eight thousand didn't appear in time, but
the Zouaves did, and the Alexandria soldiers
beat praciptate retreat. The rebels have
always counted one Southerner equal to eight
Northern men but it appears that the
conditions are reversed-eight rebels ne
cessary to conquer one loyal man.

Best DEPTH FOR SETTING MILK.-A CORES.
pondenu of the Homestead relates the foil ow-
ing experiment On the Sth of April we SET
two pals of milk weighing forty-seven pounds
ten ources, in two tin pals ten inches deep.
The next day we set the quantity of milk from
the same cows two inches deep inpans. These
were placed on the same shelf with the first,
and of course in the same temperature, which
was near 60 deg. In four days the first milk
was sour and skinned, yielding three pounds
two onnces of cream, which being allowed to
stand one day made one pound eight ounces
of butter. The other milk, standing the same
length of time, yielded four pounds eight
ounces of cream, making two pounds one
ounce of butter,-a difference of nine ounces
in favor of setting the milk shallow. This is
a gain of 373 per cent, over the depth Of ten
inches.

MORNING.

How geutly breaks the dewy morn,
How calm, and how serene,
And hushed, and still all nature seems,
Beneath the days first beam.
The eastern heavens are all agloH,
And soon the glorious sun
Bursts forth in majesty arrayed,
And, 10 the days begun.
Now from their nests the little birds
Come forth with songs Of joy,
Ard one melodious hymn of praise,
Their tuneful throats employ.
Thus. after deaths long dreamless sleep,
May we in joy arise,
And sing with angel choirs above
The songs of Paradise.

FELT CLoTH.-A peculiar mode of making a
kind of felt of cloth, is that by the pneumatic
process, without spinning, weaving, or any a.
nalogous machinery. Into an air-tight cham
Der is put quantity of focculent PARTICLES of
wool which, by kind of winnowing wheel,
are kept floating equally. On one side of the
chamber is network of gauze of metal, CON-
municating with another chamber from which
the air can be distracted by an exhausting
syringe, or air pump, and on the communica-
tions between the chambers being opened, the
air rushes with great force to supply the par
tial vacuum in the exhausted chambers, carry
ing the focculent PARTICLES against the net
ting, and SO interlacing the fbers, that cloth
of beautiful fabric and close texture is instan-
taneously made.

MONKEYS AS FooD.-Mr. Edwards, in his
ssVoyage up the Amazon has some curious
comments on the varieties of diet IN his party.
He says monkeys are eaten in the region. and
are esteemed beyond the wild game. When
cooked they make a most delicious dish,
though the rules by which they are served up
are not to be found In any OF the numerous
cook books. One of Mr.. Edwards party shot a
sloth, and had the animal skinned with the
intention of preserving the body for anato-
mical friend. But the cook was too alert, and
had the sloth in the stew pan before an expla-
nation was made. The hunters did their best
to look with favor upon the dish, but the lean
and tough flesh could not be compared to the
delicate favor of monkey.
