A correspondent of the Albany Even
ing Journal in noticing the recent death
in a Southern city Of Mississippi
River pilot, relates the following Curl
GUS story. This pilot was q devoted
rebel at heart, but while Grant was at
Young's Point, operating against Vicks-
burg, he was in charge of one OF the
Union transports, lying below the Point;
on the west side of the river. General
Grant at that time was greatly annoyed
and mortified Mt the proinptness ana
unerring correctness of the information
conveyed from his line to the enemy.
During three or four hours OF each
day." saws the correspondent "this pilot,
after gathering from the officers at
do1arters what information he de-
sired-for officers would talk-would
repair to q farm house down on the Point
and with mirror, which he had pre-
viously taken from the cabin OF the steam
or amuse himself by throwing the suns
reflection up and down the river. No
one asked what he was doing-tor the
employment was so simple and appar-
emily distracted that none thought for
moment of attributing any other mo-
tive than mere idle pastime. But this
was his secret, previously agreed upon
between himself and General Pemberton.
Vicksburg is mainly upon high bluff,
the lower part of the city during certain
hours of the day being entirely in the
shade. Commencing at the upper end
of the city, and within easy view
NJ. had selected thirteen houses
behind and above each other.
To each one of these houses a letter
of the alphabet was given. From
the window of the farm house he
throw the reflections first upon one
house and then upon another, an officer
of Pemberton's staff in the secret, at the
same time standing on the levee with
his back to NJ, and reading every word
easily and rapidly. And he not only
gave information of what was trans
pring in the Union camp at Ioung's
Point, but also gathered from Northern
newspapers important news relative to
the movements of armies elswhere,
sending it across the river in the
same manner. The plan was kept up
until short time before General Grant
made arrangements for going below
Vicksburg, crossing at Grant Gulf, and
coming up in the rear. Just before that
event NJ. was ordered to another point,
and, consequently, the enemy had no
light upon the subject of that last
novel,

A STORY is told Of a man named Walk
err. who went to dutch tailor and had
his measure taken for pair of panta,
looms. He gave directions to have them
made large and full. Walker was a
heavy man, and liked his clothes loose
and when he came to try on his unmen'
tionables, found that they stuck tight
to his legs, whereat he thus remon-
strated: ~ told you to make the pants
full. After some obligatory express
sions of a profound nature, the tailor
ended the controversy by declaring: Il

Are You Bilious !

Multitudes of both sexes will answer this
question in the affirmative; for, next to disOr,
ders Of the stomach, liver.complaint is perhaps
the most prevalent of all internal diseases. Its
usual symptoms are a yellowish tinge in the
whites of thee especially near the inner cor
ners, an uneasy or slightly painful sensation in
the right side, pain between the shoulder blades
sick. headache, lassitude, mental dullness lack
Of appetite, and irregularity of the bowels,
Whoever recognizes this diagnosis as applying
to his own condition, may be quite certain that
more bile exists in his blood and less passes
through his bowels than is eXpedient for his
health, and that his liver requires toning and
regulating. One of the special uses of
HOSTETTER'S BITTERS
is to meet just such exigeRies as this Itstonic
principle rouses the liver from its torpor, and its
aperient element gently relieves the intestinal

TROUBLE IN On TRANsACTIoNs-FUGI-
TIvEs FROM JUSTICE AGAIN IN CUSTODY
Detective George ii. Smith left the city
last evening for Harrisburg, to obtain a
requisition from Governor Geary for the return
of Augustus II. and William II. Tack, who are
now in custody in the Tombs, New York city,
to Philadelphia. 1t seems these parties are
brokers and dealers in petroleum, being chiefly
engaged in the purchase and sale, on commits
sion, of oil for exploration to Europe. 1t is
alleeed that they, acting as confidential agents
for Mr.. James 0iConnor eX-President OF the
Fourth National Bank, Plttsburg, secretly COM
bined to deceive him and other parties by max
ing q large number of contracts in oil, to be
supplied on what is known as buyers option -
that in place of calling for the oil from time TO
time, Is usual in the course OF trade, they did,
by precoEcert, simultaneously call for the whole
Of the oil so contracted for at a time when il
was most difficult to supply it, and when,
from the condition of the market the parties
bound to supply it were in the expectation of
