A New DoDsE or THE NEW York BBddARs.-
newspaper correspondent writes from New
York as follows:
The beggars have lately created a sensation
by dodge which is as amusing as cunning
Fnlton Ferry is o great gate OF the city.
Hundreds of thousands of people pass to and
from the city daily by that route, and as
natural consequence beggars who go early where
there is a surplus Of wealth 10 be given away,
congrCgate ou the Fulton ferry boats. The
latest trick is fperiormed by man and small
child, the latter in rags and the former in q
well worn uniform of blue, with one sleeve
empty, the missing arm being carefully hidden
away under tue coat The plan of the operators
is for the man personAting the soldier to sit in
the ladies' cabin of the boat in such a way that
the child, in its tour of begging, approaches him
hrst, soliciting aims. The false soldier listens
to the brief tale told in an undertono by the
child, questioning him or her very loudly, mud
at last pulling a well worn aud well filled
pocket book from his pocket hands it to his
nearest neighbOr, and asks him (being himself
unable to handle the pocket-bOOt with his single
hand) to give the child ten or twenty-five cents.
The beggars know enough of human nature 10
know that this scene invariably exoites the
sympathy Of the spectators, who are ashamed
not to give after seeing the 'pOor soldier" do so,
aud the child generally manages to get quite
respectable sum of postal currency. This
repeated once or twice day at each ferry about
the city gives to the rascaly pair very nice
income. Some of these people make from eight
to ten dollars per day. The newsbOys and
bootblaoks of the streets think they are doing
badly 1t they do not make from three 10 four
dollars per day; and often their receipts on
Sunday run up as high as five dollars.

A Cow DRINKS EiGnTEEN GALLONS OF
WHIsKY.-The Troy Times, of Friday gives a
most remarkable case of 'beastly' intoxication !:
1t seems that on the upper part of Green Island
an illicit whisky still existed, until yesterday,
when Marshal Kipp, Collector Woodward, and
Inspector Faes made raid on the premises,
and locked up both the owner and the door A
month agQ the distiery was in full blast 1t
was "sdll" night, and the man running the
machine, who had made eighteen gallons of
whisky, put it out in the open air to cool.
Along came a COW. She was thirsty, and the
beverage looked inviting. She swallowed every
drop-eighteen gallons of unrectifed whiskey,
warranted to kill at forty rods Taat COW has
been drunk ever since. She staggered home,
and is now tn the fourth week of grand old
bender The COW eats nothing; falls down
whenever they try to raise her up, aud has
become as lean as crow instead Of n COW.
Whether the COW will ever get sober, or end her
life in a ft of delirium tremens, is a question we
shall look anxiously to see the solution Of. 1t is
really remarkable case, and we should scarcely
believe ii, If our informant was not connected
with the telegraph, and, of course, perfectly
reliable.
