The Philadelphia Inquirer, after making
the statement-nOt yet officially confirmed
that Col. Helman Haupt, has been ap-
pointed Assistant Secretary of War, say $
of Col H.;
lie is prOtege of Gen. jackson, by
whom he was placed at West Point at the
early age Of fourteen, lin lS35). lie grad.
uated with all the honors of his class in
1889, a soldier and an engineer. He has
since distinguished himself as engineer Of
the HoOsio tunnel, which will be four and
three quarters miles long, through a solid
rock; prior to accepting which position,
he was the chief engineer and general su-
perintendent of the Pennsylvania Central
Railroad. The ascent Of the Allegheny
mountains, and the tunnelling of the high
est peak, is one Of the greatest achieYments
of engineering in the world.
He has devoted much Of his attention to
harbor defences, and is the inventor of
revolving fort. Il consists of floating
battery or fort, which is TO be faced with
steel plates, and covered completely by
fiat dome, every part being shot proof. BY
a surprising simple device, the fort is made
to advance, reoede, or rotate at pleasure.
It can approach an enemy's ship with i'm
punity, and when close TO il, commence to
rotate, and discharge an uninterrupted
stream of shot and SHE'LL of the heaviest
description, at the rate of ten or twenty
discharges a minute.
He has also steam gun, which can be
aimed with as much precision as a rifle,
and discharge fifty to sixty balls a minute,
the balls dropping in one by one from a re
ceptacle. The gunners are not exposed
while using them, aud can pick off every
man on our enemies vessels who might
venture TO show himself.

A SMLE.-Reader. did you ever 81,
down in some quiet spot, and watch one
of those interesting insects called "tum-
ble-bugs." toiling with its hinge ball mp
some steep elevation? When near the top,
the rise became almost perpendicular. the
bug could not maintain his equilibrium
under his load, aud suddenly the ball
made plunge, aud in q second lay a,
the bottom of the hill /: while the bug,
turning slowly round to see where 1t was,
looked utterly astounded when he could
not find it in any direction.
Old "Drygripes" reminds us of that
tumble-bug. in disposition and in the ma
terial he delights to work in. He buried
himself in the filth Of secessionism, and set
to constructing his ball of treason. The
thing worked finely, and up he tugged
with his burden. The ball assumed shape
and spparcn. solidity. and he felt that he
should soon reach the pinnacle of the
mound, where his ball should rest with
out opposition, and he perched on the
top of his bali. But reaction has come !;
he feels something give way ; and soon
he will turn round to behold himself alone
on the side Of the dunghill. while his
darling ball has vanished. and is no long
or visible to the naked eye!

"DRYGRIrEs" CoNs1sTENcy.-"Dry

BILE logic, and his rare consistency. If he
can discover a seeming contradiction in

him to expose it. and display his tre-
mendous erudition, gathered from three
doctor books and a Niger Almanac.
He has recently demolished cotempo-

"This law is as binding in its obliga-

any law upon the statute books. and will
remain SO until it is repealed by the Leg
islature or made null by the action of the
Courts"
There it is. The Military Bill requires
every citizen of the State between speci-
fed ages, to do thus and SO. "Drygripes"
says that this law is absolutely bind
ing upon every citizen until it is repealed !;
and yet he had just previously declared
that no person would be compelled to
obey its requirements except of his own
free will. Such is q specimin of his logic
and consistency such is the nonsense
which he weekly Grams down the throats
of secession iguoramuses. hoping to hide
his weakness and puerility beneath a
ponderous heap Of big words and slang
phrases, which will do for "dungarees"
to wonder or laugh at. without once
thinking to sift any sense or reason out

flying himself upon logic and consistency
