A SLIGHT MISTAKE The Sacramento Bee
says party ofhunters were out few days
since, when they started and chased to his
burrow mammoth bare, which had eluded
the hounds IN pursuit. The hunters were
up to the hole into which he had disappear
ed, when one of them volunteered to ex-
hume him. After digging for some time,
he thrust his hand down into the opening,
seized the hare aud dragged him to the
light of day. Immediately the air was iill-
ed with an odor which did not arise from
the presence of eau de cologne, and to the
surprise of the hunters, the hare bad chang
ed both color and size. The animal which
had been brought out at once opened bat
terry on those who surrounded him and the
entire party ''secededV in rapid and CON-
plete disorder. The hare had by some nec-
romancy been transformed into "skunk,"
the memory of whose presence still fingers
in the minds of the hunters about as persist
emily as the odor clung to the garments
which they wore at the time. They con-
cluded not to disturb the real animal for
which they were hunting, but to return
home to call upon their admiring lady
friends.

New DODGE TO RAISE THE WND.-The
latest effort of genius of which we have
heard, by which to raise the wind was relat-
ed to us yesterday. A couple of scoundrels
agreed that one of them should pretend to
iasult young lady who was observed walk
ing alone and that the other should appa.
rently happen up at the instant, pitch into
and drive the insuter away, aud then offer
bis escort to see the lady to her home. The
resolution was taken on the instant, and
the plan was perfectly successful. A mock
fight took place, the first man was put to
fight, and the other, suggesting that the
scoundrel might renew his attempt, accom-
panied the young lady home. There he
was thanked by the father, and pretending
that he bad lost bis purse or pocket book in
the fight, the grateful parent handed him a
twenty-dollar piece, which was reluctantly
accepted, as loan. 1t afterwards turned
out that the scamp was well known con-
fidence man. who has frequently practiced
lodges of similar character.-[ Alta.

hands of an infuriated mob, and was about
to suffer martyrdom for his principles.

SECESSION WITHIN SECEssI0N.--A Geor-
gia paper states that the toYn of Gordon,
situated on the Central Railroad, at the
junction of the road to Miledgevile, has,
by an ordinance duly drawn up, signed and
adopted by meeting of the citizens'Of the
place, formally seeded from Wilkinson
county, State of Georgia. The narrator
proposes to call it the independent city of
Gordon. The people of Gordon can prob
ably give as good reasons for secession, and
the act can as we'll be justified on principle,

able to the Union cause.
Gen. McClelland is actively engaged in
preparing the army on the Potomac for an
early movement, and additional regiments
are constantly arriving in his camp. There
is lull in the cry Of Coward to Richmond
and the indications are that the military au-
thorities will have time to complete their ar
rangements without any Cabinet or outside
pressure in future.
Several officers have been promoted to the
rank of Brigadier General, the most promi-
nent being Coils. Hunter and Sherman, Of
the regular army, and who acquitted them
selves well at Bulls Run.
The deliberations of Congress still continue
and are marked with great unanimity in
their desire for the national defence and sur
port of the Government. The revision of the
Morrill, Tariff, and direct taxation bills being
amongst the most prominent measures, are
receiving ldTSo duOuHt Vi deeon'ions anu
arc likely to receive the sanction of Con.
gress. Measures Of this character are rem
dered necessary in order to sustain the Gov

Five Federal steamers were fred into at the

Prince Napoleon had arrived in Washing

seeing for himself the strength of the Govern
ment, and the practical workings of free in

his visit at this time is significant no one caI
doubt, and that the evidence that will be pre-

to impress him and the Government of France
favorably to the permanence of our institu
