a CuriOsity Our old friend WILLIAM HAIR
ny. Of the town of Somers, has left in our office
for a few days a great curiosity-a Leasus Ma
turae-one of those freaks of Nature. that occur
once in n great while for people to wonder at. This
is a Lamb with a double Head. II can hardly be
aid to have two Heads, for there are but two ears
The lamb lived eight days, and Mr.. Hardy has
had it neatly stuffed and preserved, so that it looks
as ]''natural as life"
Wehardly know how to describe it. 1t Is a
good sized lamb for the age, fine wooded, and all
but its head, as symmetr ical as any lamb. The
inflammation commences at the base of the head
or Immediately in front OF the ears, but the t~0
faces are perfect. The mouths aie duplicate ana
sererate from the cheeks down, and apparently
perfect. The four eyes were fully developed. the
two inside ones being some distance apart. The
nubs or protuberances for four horns are quite dis
tinct. The neck is no larger than an ord nary
one. and does not partake of the. dupliate charac
ter in the least.
This monstrosity lived eight days. 1t drank
milk with both mouths at once, or with one at q
time. and for a time bid fair to live and grow. L
blea,ed from both mouths at once, generally
though apparently not necessarily, for the TIVE
tongues seemed to oe entirely distinct and indie
pendent Of each other.
The double headed lamb will be left in our o
fee a few days, and those curious in such thing
can call and examine it. Ii is a real curiosity ,anC
worth looking at. HAD it lived it might have BEEF
quite a little fortune to Mr.. Hardy. As it is W
commend it to Mr.. Barnum. as a genuine cuTiosi
tv. if not quite so attractive as the woody horse
or the "Feiee Ne.m0id,"

The ARMY md sh,. P.es5aeut

From the Correspondence of the N. Y. Evening Post.
Often AVE | heard the opinion warmly ex-
pressed by plain, true men of rank and file,
that Mr.. Lincoln is the only man in the coun-
try who could have held the army together
through the foregone eXigencies of the war.
OF course there will be frequent comparisons
made between him and Jefferson Davis. And
it is well worth noting how common the idea
is, that Abraham Lincoln, with his homeIv
person and awkward manners, has the inside
of a high-souled gentleman, while the accom-
pIished rebel chief has all his gentleman on
the outside, and is full Of ugliness within.
| shall leave to others to determine where
the right parts of a gentleman have their prop
er seat and pavilion, whether at the centre or
at the surface; but you may depend upon it,
that the soul and sinews of our ioyaI armies
care nothing for the skin-deep polish and re-
finement of the most aristocratic breeding.
in comparison with truth and sincerity in the
inward parts of manhood. This, more than
anything else, is what gives our Command
er-in-Chief such a prodigious hold on the
minds Of his soldiers and, l may add, it is
making him stronger with them the more he
is known. Of all the men now CONSPICUOUS
IN the political board, he is believed to have
the plainest and the simplest heart; and, GER
tainly, in times like these, the one Gift of in.

all the arts of state-craft and all the fascina.

the same thing which, in another great ma.
tional exigency. made 'Old Father Tatimer -
as he was called, an inextinguishable LIGHT
and an irrepressible force.

Mr.. EdttOr.-I understand there is some talk of
getting up a fourth OF July celebration at the
county Fair grounds. 1 do not know that any
thing positive has been determined on but / hope

reconsider, not as regards having a celebration
but as regards the location. In a county where
there is q city the size of kenosha, the city seems
evidently the place for such q celebration as is
suitable on that day. This seem SO self evident
that it is scarcely worth while to argue the matter
As a general rule. all over the country, the Gus
tom is to flock from the country to the towns and

lis makes but little difference whether the Con

If, in this case, it were not VaIIan~.x
it would be something else. The admins
tration was denounced as roundly two years
troops was declared a '~'usurpation of power"
which the people should resist. The arrest
of Vallandigham is no more harshly spoken
of.
When the Federalists of 1912 opposed the
! Government and the war, reasons for their
treason were plenty as blackberries." When
they withheld men and money! as their sue
cessors now threaten to do, they.iustify them
selves in long columns of vituperation and
abuse of the administration and armies. 1t

Gov. Seymour, in his letter to the Vallan-
digham meeting, sounded the keynote in his
declared purpose to "PAUSE" in his support
of the Government until the President should
decide in the case of that Infamous preacher
Of sedition and treason.
The Times and Courier catches the signal
and echoes it, as it understands 1t. Its in
depreciation of the Governors 'PAUSE' IS
a determination to WITHHOLD "MEN AND
MONEY" FROM THE GOVERNMENT
''The State of New York will not make itself
a party to this conspiracy by placing men and
money in the hands of the conspiratOrs."
But the Governor and the Democratic leaders
viii pause before they execute what is here
threatened. The intimation, however, is none
the less infamous and its utterance demands
such all expression of public sentiment as will
teach those who entertain the thought, that,
Djtb or qgjthOH their cooperation, New York
viU not be false to her duty in this hour of
the Nations peril that she will not withhold
either 'men or money from those who are
entrusted with the duty Of prosecuting the
war and restoring the Union; that she will
not even pause" in her patriotic purpose to
exhaust all her resources, if need be, to crush
out the Rebellion and to punish Treason.
With or without official cooperation, the
People will see to it that New York is not de-
l%inquent. They are themselves 'the men, y
and they control the money! and what
they are and what they have will not be with
held when required by their country.

the War 10 be Transferred go tAae Loyal
states.
From The Richmond Examiner. May 81.
If it will be ever possible to attempt any
thing beyond the defensive, even, this would
seem to be the time. Since the first battle of
Manassas, the Southern army has never had
so evident an opportunity to gain a victory
a gain the Southern army, which has so often
repulsed the enemy with ~sanguinary effect,
cannot be said to nave made on any occasion
or at any time. A victory signifies something
more than the preventing the success of an at
tack. Progress, conquest, or some step tow
ard the conclusion Of the war, is involved in
the idea Of a victory. With all our glorious
battles, we have not yet recovered a single
lost city, or delivered any s%ubjugated State
from the thrall of the invader. If we can ev-
er do such a thing, we must hope to do it
shortly, for we shall never behold our foe so
weak again.
Defensive operations are, no doubt, more
faciie and surer Of success in kind. While
the Confederate army is what it now is, the
enemy will be beaten whenever he crosses the
Rappahannock or ventures again on the James.
But defensive operations will never secure the
acknowledgement of our independence or end
the war. The Yankees will fight us for forty
years on the present terms. No people are
more pertinacious and Washington well no
ted this popularity of their character, that
they are totally fearless until they see a bay
onet at their breast, though they are remark
able for their pusilanimity. So long as the
war means the dispatch of men and money
to a distance, and so long as they fail to see
the columns of an invading army ~blackening
their fields, lit by the fame of their houses
and towns, they will be stubbornly determined
to prosecute it. From the first day, the only
reasonable hope of the Confederacy has been
the transfer Of hoStiijtjeS to the enemy's terri
tory. If we cannot do that, the progress of IN
%raSjGR, hoaoeuer sjop, must after a time, orer
| rhelm us. No treaty of peace is possible save
that signed on the eaemy'S soil, and if our ar
hand a0hen they aoiU do so.

ANCIENT ToADs.-Sir \. P. Gordon Cum
mings writes TO The Egja Courier: in
cutting the Inverness and Perth Railway
through the Lochmavandar Park ON AItvre.
we have unceremoniously trespassed on the
privacy and retirement of a numerous COLONY
OF ancient toads. The cutting is here from
20 to 20 feet deep, the lower part being through
from 10 feet to Is feet of freestone and red
congiomerate. The interesting old residenters
are found in the red freestone, about 10 feet
to 26 feet below the surface. They soon wake
up from their long sleep, and hop away to the
fields"
