LAW RELATING To STRAYs. the
season of the year is at hand when stray
cattle and other animals are taken up,w
would remind our readers that every care
of stray should be promptly advertised.
No person can legally take up a stray
animal, and obtain compensation for the
expense or trouble of keeping it, unless
the proper advertisement is given. The
ninth section of the law relating to strays
provides as follows: EE
IF any finder OF any stray shall ne
glect to cause the same to be advertised
or notice thereof to be posted up,o If he
shall neglect to procure the appraisal of
any stray, which shall be of the value of
ten dollars or more, or if he shall neglect
to perform any of the duties required OF
him in this chapter. he shall be preclud-
ed from acquiring any right of property
in such stray, or receiving any damages
or charges for keeping the same.

lowing proclamation
In the year which is now drawing to
its end the art, the skill and the labor of
the people of the United States have
been employed with greater diligence
and yIgor, and on broader fields, than
ever before, and the fruits of the earth
have been gathered into the granary and
the storehouse in marvellous abundance
Our highways have been heightened and
new and prolific regions have been occu-
pied. We are permitted to hope that
long protracted political and sectional
dissensions are, at no distant day, to give
place to returning harmony and fraternaI
affection throughout the republic. Many
foreign states have entered into liberal
agreements with US, while nations which
are far off, and which heretofore have
been unsocial and exclusive, have become
our friends The annual period Of rest
which we have reached In health and tran
guilty, and which is crowned with so
many blessings, is, by universal consent,
convenient and suitable one for cultiva-
ting personal piety and practising public
devotion.
I, therefore, recommend that Thurs
day, the twenty-sixth day of November
next, be set apart and observed by all the
people of the United States as 4 day for
public praise, Thanksgiving and prayer
to the Almighty Creator and Divine Hul-
er of the universe, by whose ever watch
full, merciful and gracious providence
alone states and nctions no less than fam
lilies and individual men do move and live.

A MYSTERIOUS Box IN THE Treas
URY. DEPARTMENT. Several months al:
ter the close of the war a tin box was
given to General Spinner, Treasurer of
the United States, by Mr.. Stanton, then
Secretary of War. for safe keeping. The
box was said to contain about $50, 900 in
gold, and Mr. Spinner carefully locked 1t,
away in the vaults OF the Treasury
About q year ago certain national bank
suspended with a heavy indebtedness TO
the Government. A United States
Quartermaster who had got into trouble
in his official capacity, was indebted to
this bank in the sum of $50, 900. and the
box deposited with Spinner was said to
contain that amount OF belonging to said
Quartermaster. The bank engaged the
services Of an eminent lawyer Of New
York city as its attorney, and he imne-
dlately began proceedings to have the
box opened and the money taken out and
paid over to the Government to liquidate
part of the bank indebtedness The
attorney has been striving for more than
year to accomplish his object, but it
was not until to-day that success attend
ed his efforts He had beento Secretary

Mr.. Stanton referred him back to Mr.

Several months thus passed, and Dir.
/ McCulloch laid the case before the Presi7
dent, and he thought it fit subject for a
Cabinet consultation. 1t was accordingly
/ discussed III Cabinet meeting. but before
a conclusion could be reached, the i'm
parchment complication occurred, and
changes were made in the Cabinet 1t
was then found. necessary to bring the
subject before the Cabinet again with it's
new members. This was done, and it
was decided that the power to open the
1 box lay with the Secretary of War. On
the / til inst, the War Secretary detailed
I General Hardee of his staff to accom-
/ pany the bank attorney and have the
contents of the box examined They
| found that the rules of the Treasury De
! paftment required law officer of the
| United States to be a witness and Assis-
tant District Attorney Wilson was sent
for. General Spinner then summoned
several of his confidential clerks.as addi-
/ tlonal witnesses, and the whole. party,
heated by the hopcfu, and TRUMP hant
attorney, went to the vaults. The box
was brought OUT from dusty cornor. for

there was no key After some delay a
