Persons recently from Reel Foot Lake,

on its surface like great fleets of Lilliputian
vessels, Wild geese sound their trumpet
calls on all sides, and tall cranes wade la
ally about In regiments In search Of food.
Brants. cormorants, teels, mallards, di-dap-
per and snlpes, darken the air ut all times
with the sweep of their many colored
wings. Not unirequently magnificent
swan, robed In plumes of spotless purity,
the very poetry of the wave, floats by the
delighted sportsman, and too often falls the
victim OF his fowling-pleoe. The traffic In

argues In favor of their Improvement and

without gloves, and he shows very clearly
that the Massachusetts, Brigadier acted at
the last session with undue haste when he
moved the repeal Of the neutrality laws at

A Coincidence Attemnted.

The "DoRR Rebellion" in Rhode Island,
has not yet passed from general recollec-
tion-the attempt TO snbycrt tho existing
state Goycrnment-when the recognized
Governor of the State called on the Presl-
dent of the United States for aid to main
tain that State Government; the aid was
granted by the President of the United
States, and the attempt to subvcrt the rec
ognized Government was suppressed.
Arc we not, suggests u contemporary,
drifting to this state of things at the pres-
cnt time, if n majority of Congress attempt
to overthrow the State Governments rec
ognized as such by the Executive depart
ment who alone has the power and right to
decide which are the legitimate Govern
ments of domestic or foreign States2 Is
not the President bound to protect and de-
iend those recognized Governments from
assaults from foreign and domestic foesS
