PARDoNGAND CONFIscATED PRoPERTY.--It ap- |
pears by documents transmitted to Congress
that there is no record at the Attorney-Gene-
rails office of how much has been seized and |
forfeited, nor now mucn naj Deen returned 10 |
the enemies of the Government.
The number of pardons granted we're; in Geor-
gia, 1928; North Carolina, 4S2; Texas, 269, New |
Mexico, J. Mississippi, i75; Louisiana, l42, Al |

The Secretary Of the Treasury has no infor- |
nation in his department as to how much prop |
erty has been returned to owners. ConfscatedI !
lands held by to Treasury Department were
turned over in June to the bureau of refugees
and freedmen.
The Adiutant-Gener says he has no records
of the restoration of property. The Quarter
master General says railroads have been re-
turned on condition of their being reorganized
and electing loyal boards of directors.
Engineer Deafeld reports that the lands
seized in both the loyal and dsloyal States, and
occupied by the military have been dismantled.
Gen Howard gives list of property seized
and subsequently restored, the greater proper
ton Of which is in virginia, and formerly occu-
pied by refugees and freedmen. The estate of
Ann Aiken, in South Carolina, ves restored by
an order from General Sickles. Some were re-
stored because the freedmen could be more ad
vantageously located elsewhere, and others were
restored on mutually satisfactory agreements.
Gen. Howard furnishes a peremptory order of
President johnson, directing the return of prop
erty to one Leske, former rebel soldier. who
was specially pardoned oy the fresluen'i 'n7
order in this case directing that such course
should be pursued in similar cases, the eject OF
which has been that the bureau has been COM
pelled to part With the greater portion OF the
property once under its control. 10000 acres
of abandoned property have been restored to
their former owners; IA, ,652 acres of land aiiot-
ted to freedmen have been restored, and lo,45Z
acres seized have also been restored.

INSTINCT. A naturalist says: Last
summer, while walking in my park, | Obser-
we'd green wOodpecker alight on the ground
some fifty PAGES before me, look round to
see if he was noticed, then lie down and
stimulate death by stretching out himself
motionless, and hanging his tongue out as
far as possible. He occasionally pulled IN
his bill. He had selected place near an
ant hill. The ants, thinking him dead, would
rover his tongue to devour him when it
was black with ants, he would swallow them,
and repeat his trick until his NAV cou4dThold
