INDIAN sHREwDNEss.

The Indians have always showed fond
ness for strong drink, and have been willing
to barter almost anything which they pos

came to a tavern and told the landlord that

A SUBLIME PIECE OF LAzINEss.
learned yesterday of one of the most stu
pendous pieces of laziness of the age. A
lady who had, as the story goes, been reared
up in the lap of luxury, came to this city
on Saturday last, with the intention Of pas
sing the Sabbath here. Sunday morning
came and she arrayed herself in all her ar
tificial gorgeousness and gewgaws, but un-
fortunately, could not find her earrings
She wouldn't 60 without them. She hunt
ed everywhere, she said-had the whole
house in an uproar of unpleasantness-ac-
cused the landlady and her family, the 9TH
er boarders, and the servants, all and every
one, of stealing the missing jewels: The
landlady became furious, did not like any
such accusations, and attempted to satisfy
the lady by suggesting search of large
Saratoga trunk she had brought with her.
Lady said her husband always packed and
unpacked her trunks, and she didn't like
the trouble of overhauling them herself
The day wore away, and the next morning
she telegraphed twice to her husband, who
is a merchant in q neighboring town, for
his presence on "important business" The
husband came on in the evening train. I'm
agine his countenance, when she said,
Glove, I have lost my ear-bobs, please un-
pack the Saratoga trunk and find them"
Love did so, and found them. A desirable
wife, that.-NashviUe Dispatch.

A Colt WITH HUMAN FAcE.-We
learn, says the Lagrange (Mo.) American,
that large gray mare belonging to Robt.
Harrison, farmer residing about FIVE miles
west of Lagrange, gave birth to colt, a
few days since, having face strongly re-
sembling the human features divine. In
every other part, except the head, it is not
unlike any other young colt, and may be
considered we'll formed up to its ears, where
the humanlike face begins. The eyes are
smaller than usual, and very expressive; !;
the nose is fiat, while the nostrils are thin,
the nose having quite ridge through its
centre. The mouth, lips and chin are mod
eled after the human form, and are quite
perfect. The colt has no teeth, which is
unusual, and it cannot obtain it's nourish-
ment from the mother, but is fed on milk
with spoon. This remarkable curiosity
lived but a few days.

inoffensive to man and highly useful, as they
subsist entirely on insects, and require a
large amount of food. They enter our
dwellings only in search of flies and mus
quitoes. Their young are born two at a
time, and cling to the mother during her
flights until old enough to fly on their own
account. They have small, clear, bead-like
eyes, and see tolerably we'll, so that "blind
as bal" is not so blind as some suppose; |;
but their sense of hearing and smell are so
acute that when their eyes arep put out, they
will fly swiftly, catching insects and avoid
ing obstacles with great dexterity. When
at rest, they fold their web wings very close
ly and hang suspended by their little slen.
der hooked thumbs. In the winter, they
collect in clusters, in deserted buildings,
leaves and hollow trees. If caught, they
bite fercely; but if undisturbed, hurt moth
ing but their natural prey, and in their yo-
cation of Ay-catcher are eminently success
full and useful.

WHY GRANT DisLIKEs THE JEWS.
A correspondent of the Chicago Times
says The question is often asked, 'What
has General Grant against the Jews p
"Why did he issue that notorious procla-
nation driving all Jews, without discrimi-
nation, outside his encampment. And not
having seen published any satisfactory an
swer. will give you what I suppose to be
the real cause of his dislike to the jews
During the winter of 1858 and 1860, while
Grant was living at Galena, he took it into
his head to 60 into business on his own
hook and thinking there was speculation
in buying dressed hogs and shipping them
to Chicago, he came down to the town of
Bellevue, lying some II miles southwest, on
the west bank of the Mississippi, for the
purpose of buying from the farmers as they
came in town with their pork, and having it
hauled to Galena, and there shipped on the
railroad to Chicago, or in any other way
disposed of so as to make profit, which
was very honorable, and, if managed un-
derstandingly, could have been made a
profitable business. There lived at that
time in Bellevue a man by the name of
Rosenthal, who was Jew, who was in the
pork trade, and Of course, would be glad to
keep the trade in his own hands; so he de-
termined, if possible, not to give Grant
much of chance, and the first two or three
loads were bid up far beyond its real value,
and finally sold to Grant. By this time
Rosenthal discovered that Grant knew no
difference between the price of light and
heavy hogs, when in reality, there is diff
ference of at least one dollar per hundred
heavy hogs being the most the hogs al
ready purchased by Grant being light, and
he having paid the full price for heavy
hogs. So Rosenthal goes to his warehouse,
selects out all the light hogs, enough to load
three or four wagons; gets some farmers
who had wood racks on their wagons to load
on the hogs, drive out of town by another
street and come in the main road, to the
corner where they were buying. Rosen-
thai meets them there by another street,
and commenced bidding against Grant, and,
after bidding the pork to the value of heavy
pork, it was sold to Grant. But the joke
or ''sell'' being too good to keep, it was not
half an hour before nearly everybody was
splitting with laughter to see how the Jew
sold the Galena pork buyer, which so dis
gusted Grant that he went home that night,
and was never seen in Bellevue after. And
the transaction so embittered him against
the old tribes of Israel that ! doubt wheth-
er he could now be reconciled. And this is
undoubtedly the whole cause of the expul-
sion of the Jews from his camp.

The division between United States and
State jurisdiction is not always distinctly
marked: but officers will be guided in their
action by the principles laid down by the
Supreme Court of the United States, in the
case of Ableman versus Booth (21 Howard
Reports, 506.)
s. At all forts, arsenals, light houses,
custom houses and other public establish
ments, whether held by original cession or
by capture and occupation, the jurisdiction
will be held to be in the United States, reg
ulated in the former case by the terms of
the cession; and in the latter exclusive, un-
til otherwise directed by law or other pro-
per authority. Commanding officers are
required to see that such places are not al
lowed to become asylums for criminals, and
that no persons not in the service of the
United States are allowed to establish them
selves within the limits of any ceded or re-
served jurisdiction.

ders issued from the Headquarters of any
Department, District, Sub District or Mil
itary Post in South Carolina as reserves

said State, embraced in the operation of

Headquarters of the Military Division Of

diction of which is in the Courts of the U.
States, and except also as to the reserva-
tions specified in Section 8 of this order.
