No, it could not be Il shark; tor God
could never have ventured the person OF

was it, then, my brethrenF Was it Il
salmon, think ye? All. no-tbat were

General Sick1es has issued an order
prohibiting the distillasion of spirits from
grain in the Second Military district.
Offenders are declared liable TO trial and
punishment by a military commission
The reasons assigned for tie order are that
the present scanty supply of food in the
Carolinas is seriously diminished by the
large quantity of grain consumed in dis
tilleries, worked in defiance of the reve-
nue. laws; that this unlawful traffic makes
food dcarer in places where large numbers
are depending upon public and private,
bounty; thatthe Government is detrauded
of large amount of revenues; that the
authority of its civil officers is brought
into contempt, and THAI the mischief com
planned of tends to increase poverty, mis-
cry and crime.

dirty arms resting on his krees, and his
