IL some Of the military departments taking
an oath seems to be an Indispensable requisite,
whatever the business in hand, buying cotton
or going 70 church. In fact the measure or
loyalty with some is the abundance OF oaths
taken. But strange TO say, Gen. Grant gets
along lust as well, and perhaps a little better,
without resorting to this expedlent, to which
SO much Importance IS given 10 other commands.
A letter from Nashville says
'(ront has not administered single oath,
but has very summary disposed OF the rebei
armies, whose presence IN The State rendered
the people indecisive. The only oath which
has been submitted to Tennesseans since Gen:

The CAT AGE. The palmy days for
cats were in the time of Egypt's power
as a nation, some five hundred years B, c.
/ They were held there as sacred as dogs
or crocodles, and death was the penalty
for killing them. From their nocturnal
habits and glossy fur, t h 6 Egyptians
deemed them symboical of the moon, and
a golden cat was wor,hipped at Syene.
tIerodotuS tells US some marvels about
them. "The Toms" it seems, in his time,
had a peculiar liking for making away
with kittens--a very fortunate thing, too,
or the land would have overrun with cats.
Growing wonder of all, when fire
breaks out, the sole care of the natives
is to keep the cats from it ; to do which
they post themselves as guards around
the burning house, and take no thought
for putting out the flames. A divine
impulse, however, says the chroncer,
seizes the cats they dart under the men
or leap over them and fling themselves
into the flames then great mourning
takes possession of the land. II a cat
were found dead in any ones house, the
iPeatee he'd r. aLeve uF their eyebrows
the temples, where they were embalmed
and solemnly deposited in the city Of
Burbastis. Specimens may be seen in
the British museum. Very different is
their fate at modern Rome. A recent
traveller tells US they are there as highly
esteemed for culinary purposes as puppy
dogs in China. If you have a roast hare
for dinner, you had better not make too
many inquiries as to what kind of "pussy"
it was before it came into the chefs
bands.
