1 RED TAPE has often been burlesqued, but
we doubt if a more extreme case was ever re-
corded than the following, credited to the
English War Department: zaz45 xa
sa There is a tradition, said TO be historical,
concerning a clerk the War Office who once
wanted peg whereupon. to hang his bat TO
save the expense of car penter ne applied tor
a hammer and nail, with which to drive it
il himself. Six months passed before he re;
ceiived any answer to his request, and he had
long ago set up a peg Of his own, when q spe-
ciai messenger from the Tower arrived in Pail
Mall With a hammer sent to him at last through
the medium of numberless acquisitions aud
authorizations At the same time he was $, ln-
formed that it Was not the province of the low,
er officials to supply nails, but that these would
come to him from Woowich, and after few
months further waiting they really did arrive
Ia pound Of nails, brought by great ,ambu-
lance wagon withits haltaozen horses and It's
dozen attendants. .s \.

Rare PAINTINGS AND HOW THEY MULTI

Rare PAINTINGS AND HOW THEY MULTI
PLY. "A clever system Of gulling the public in
art matter by the appli lication of the principles
of tie traditional Peter Funk to- the peddling
of of daubs and smoked copies OF Old master
pieces as genuine, has within the past ten years
developed into an exact science. GALLERIES on
Broadway are .splendidly fitted up and opened
with. collections from the old masters which
would startle an old master out OF hls wits
Raphael died and had oidea of the number
! Of times he bad painted his whole list OF sub
yiects Reubens produced brilliant orgies, but
vent to his grave without an inkling of the In
calculab|e number OF 3sslowland, orgies which
would be begotten of his own masterpieces
aud during ten years New Y Yorkers have bought,
at passable prices, more masterpieces than the
whole army Of the cid masters ever put upon
canvas Ii has become a fashionable mania to
! affect the artistic S. Hoddy, who cannot tell
{ the difference between daub and a 1alntlng
or even between oland water colors, buys large

and consoles himself with the fancy that if the
specimens be not genuine, they are at least
quite as handsome as the genuine them

matter for legislation. Meantime auctioneers
sell daubs because daubs are saieble; and
Americans who affect the artistic buy daubs for
paraphrase of Talleyrand' s reasons for be-

sd EVAPORATION: know that Maryland
and Virginia, and the: States south of them
{ where lands already fenced and ready for the
plough can now be had at a tenth of their in
trinsic value, offer, ,as regards climate, fertility
of SOIL and facilities to market, far greater IN
ducements to the immigrant than the fertile,
but bleak prairies Of the Northwest: How,
then, are we to attract the first comers, how
u are we to divert southwark riyulet OF foreign
immigration which will in time swell into a
great stream Of population, as was the case
westward, and in Texas? Our answer to this
question is the. natural result OF q thorough
study of the subject We must first employ
the poorer classes of immigrants without CAPT
tai, who have found their way here, as day
laborers, pay, them fair wages, feed and treat
them well, get them accustomed to the soil,
its cultivation, and its resources. Soon, they
will not only become permanent. settlers, but
they will. attract by their reports to their
friends, the human tide.of white men which is
the only salvation for the South. This may be
done in convenient and economical manner,
by applying to reliable agents In; New York,
who will select laborers from newly arrived i'm
. migrants. ai.rs.sss
sro In another column of this issue will be found
the advertisement of Mr.; Bonfort, an educated
German gentleman, who has resided in the
South, and understands thoroughly the wants
of the. country. Through his correspondents
In Europe, ,Iand BY arrangements already made
4 With steamboat and railroad companies here,
he has probably greater facilities for furnishing
labor to Southern landholders than any other
: agent. We confidently recommend him to our
