NEGRO HUNTING UNDER DIFFJCULTIEs.-
Gen. Butler was called on the other day by a
gentleman who said he had a negro hanging
round the generals hospital, and wished to get
him. The Generals policy in such cases is TO
turn the negro out of the lines, unless he has
been employed by some officer. He therefore
turned 10 one of his aids--Lieut. Clark-and
told him TO write to DIR. Smith to turn the man
out of his hospital. Lieut.. Clark wrote TO Dr.
Smith-"You will at once turn the man out of
your hospitaf'-accidentall emitting to say
anything about colored man. The owner OF
the slave took the note to the hospital inno-
Gently enough, and handed it to Dr. Smith,
The Doctor read the order, and though rather
astonished, supposed the General had good
reasons for giving such instructions so up he
jumped, and told his visitor TO leave the house
quicker than he ever came into il. The gen.
tleman was completely astounded, and at
tempted to ask the reason of such treatment:
but the doctor said he would not hear a word,
and taking him by the shoulder pushed him to-
ward the door, and then ordered the corporal
to put him out, which he did, the gentleman
brandishing his cane and cursing bitterly
against such usage. He went back 10 the Gem
eral, and an explanation ensued, and resulted
in all hands enjoying regular old fashioned
horse laugh. The negro was not in the hospi-
tai, and has not yet been found.

POETRY.

1.-THE following lines, cut from New Or
leans paper, were written on Gen. Beauregards
appeal to the people to contribute their bells
to be melted into cannon. A Maine lady in
that city, forwarded the slip to her friends in
Saco, saying, "You have got the bells, so for
ward the poetry."l
Melt the bells, melt the bells;
Still the tinkling on the plain,
And transmute the evening chimes
Into wars resounding rhymes,
That the invader may be slain
By the bells.
Melt the BELLS melt the bells,
That for years have called TO prayer,
And instead the cannon's roar
Shall resound the valleys DER,
That the foe may catch despair
From the bells.
Melt the bells melt the bells
Though 1t cost a tear to part
With the music they have made,
Where the ones we loved are laid,
With pale cheek and silent heart,
Meath the bells
Melt the bells, melt the bells
Into cannon, vast and grim,
And the foe shall feel the ire
From its heaving lung of fire,
And Wen put our trust in him
And the bells.
Melt the BELLS melt the bells
And when foes are driven back,
And the lightning cloud of war
Shall roll thunderess and far,
We will melt the cannon back
Into bells.
Melt the bells melt the BELLS
And they'll peel swecter chime,
And remind of all the brave
Who have sunk to glory'e grave,
And will sleep through booming timo
Meath the bells.

A LIZARDS CAsT-oFF CoAT.-I have OBJ
served that the lizards frequently change their
skins, as do snakes; and this much in the same
manner. A few days before the skin is coming
off the lizard looks covered with a sort of
slime, and appears stupid and sluggish. When
he feels his coat loose enough he gets between
two conveniently placed portions of stick or
wood, and, leaving the dead skin, or slough. as
it is sometimes called, behind him. comes forth
more brilliant and lively than ever. These
cast-on skins are sometimes most perfect, par
ticularly when the lizard has not been disturb
ed during the operation; the only way TO ex-
anime it is to take it most carefully out from
the vessel in which il is found, on the top of
canefs hair brush anything ruder, as a bit of
stick, will tear it into bits,) and place it in a
wine-glass of clear water, then, with the light
est touch possible, brush the parts asunder ;
and If you are lucky, and have a light hand,
you may get the whole skin expanded quite
perfect, looking like the ghost of its former own
or. There is not a portion of the body that
has not parted with its covering the very toes
and skin of the feet are seen hanging like an
empty glove; and even the beautiful and yet
hard and transparent covering of the eye re-
mains faithfully fixed in its old companion, the
skin The lizards, why or wherefore L know
not, are very fond of eating these cast-off skins.
