The Richmond Etamfhdr says: IL
is said that an cnterprsing Yankee
having bought an island 10 the Ohio
river, has stocked the same with black
cass. intending TO 70 into the fur trade.
This reininds us offs similar expert
mcnt, which was made many years ago
BY gaHtlaman who resided IN Mary

fur trade was 80 lucrative il would be
much better 10 raise animals nearer
hcme than the regions o. the North,
aud accordingly purchased an island in
the Chesapeake bay, stocking il With
the blackest Of black cats. He paid
extravagant prices for tho ssiiucs, and
all the boys IN the adjacent coantry
went extensively into the business Of
tntrspping ansaspcciing Tommies an d
Tabbies, which were Immediately dis.

The gentleman found the cats were

pIoy two men 10 live on the island and
ish with a seine, ID order to supply
them with food At FIRST the fishermen
had quite sp easy time, aud readily
supplied Iish 10 abundance for their
charges, but the number daily increas-
ed, until whole lcgions Of black cats
trooped over the island home deyoaring
everything 10 the shape Of food, and
the men found il impossible TO furnish
the requisite amount Of nourishment-
AZ last il was determined that one Of
the men should take boat, and return-
ing TO the mainland, report the alarm

Of the messenger the cats became ex-
cecdingly bold, and the remaining par

Judge Grfer'S Lament.


An Exchange says: Judge Grier, OF
the United States Supreme Court, was
very bitter when he found that the
McCardle case had escaped him and
that his opportunity to embarrass the ex-
ecution of the laws and delay reeonstrue-
ton was lost. He declare that the case
was one (which involved not ''only the
liberty and rights of the appellant, but of
of millions of our fellow-citizeus.
The facts of the case may be briefly
stated thus:
l. The right of appeal to the United
states Supreme Court from the decision
OF District Court upon habeas corpus
case, never existed until after the passage
OF the act OF February 5. 1867.
2. For the eighty years which elapsed
between the date of the Federal Consti-
tuition, and the date Of the ac. of Con-
gress of 1867, the liberty and rights of
the millions of our fellow citizens of the
United States in behalf of which Judge
Grer IS SO valiant, were left wholly un-
cared for. The Democratic party during
It's sixty years of power never thought Of
this great protection ito the liberty and
rights of the millions of our people.
4. All legislation looking towards re-
vision OF State decisions affecting the
personal liberty of the citizen, by the Su-
preme Court of the United States, has
been opposed by the Democratic party.
5. When, in 1867, this bill was propo-
sed, almost all the Democrats, IN Con
ress voted against it, on the ground that
the liberty and rights ofsome of the mill
ions of negroes III the country might find
protection under it.
Judge .Grier is very old man, and
has been good lawyer in his day, though
of the fancy pro slavery pattern but
when his party ever favored any law like
that which he now dee ares to be neces
sary to the protection Of millions OF
American citizens.
