pellee came again, backed by the same mill
tary force, and seized apd carried away the
sixteen bales remaining under the shed, and
also twenty three other bales from another
spot. 1t is true, he testifes that this cotton
was afterwards restored to appellant, and
that he did not obtain the benefit of it; but
the testimony clearly proves that the facts
are otherwise. BY his acts of open hostility,
and his efforts to violate the laws and policy
of the Confederate government, he was the
active cause of the destruction of the en-
tire quantity he had bought ont of the nine
ty-0ne bales, and he had subsequently selz-
ed and appropriated the residue. Whether
the separate title TO any particular bales OF
this cotton vested in appellee, is immaterial
By the statement of his petition, there was
| complete sale of the seventy-ive bales, and
other circumstances go to show that such
was the intention of the parties. But, how
ever, that may be, the appellee having
| agreed to bear the loss in case the cotton
was burned, and having himself caused the
| destruction of part, and having carried on
| the remainder of the lot out Of which his
purchase was to be taken, and thereby put
| it out of the power of appellant to comply
with the contract he has no claim now to
decree against her for a specific perform
| ance.
The decree of the Court below will be re-
versed, and the petition ofthe appellee dis
missed without prejndice, at his costs IN

Drinking Greens with His Licker.

Col. Marcy, in his 'sThirty Years
Frontier Service tells of Virginian
who, on testing the whisky of an Ar
kansas host. found it rather raw and
unpalatable, and mixed it in the shape
of ''mint julep," which was novel
idea to the Arkansian. The latter,
however, was delighted with the new
style of drink, INDUCED in it quite lib
orally, and learned the method of CON
cocting it. ... taf.
~ The Virginian continued on his
journey toward Texas, snd in due
course of time set out to return, On
arriving at the house before mentioned,
he concluded he would call and renew
his acquaintance with his friendly old
host. Accordingly, he rode up to the
gate, and seeing onefof the boys of
the family standing near, asked him /:
''How is the old gentleman, your faith
er, my SOM"
The boy, with an air of the most
perfect Indifference. replied: "Why,
the ole mans dead, stranger" q z
