minority from the same committee reported
that as Congress had co1fded State affairs to the
military commander of the district and as the bill
row pending before Congress will in all proba-
bility soon pass, giving Gen. Grant supervising
power over all the military districts, thus securing
a more just and efficient government in this and
all other Southern States and as Congress recently
defeatedsa resolution to vacste State Offices and
empower conventions to Gil them. and as there
viii probably be speedy change from military
to civil government, established by the vote of the
people of the State, we therefore deem it mex
pedient to memorialize Congress on the subject.

FROM HAVANA.

HAVANA, Jan. 2l.-The mail steamer arrived
to-day from Vera Cruz. An expedition, two
thousand strong, commanded by Gen. Allatorre,
was expected to leave Vera Cruz on the 10th for
Yucatan, TO unite with one thousand loyal men
there and march on the Imperalists. The Mexi-
can government is sparing neither men nor money
to subdue the rebellion. At last accounts affairs
were becoming more quiet. The supposed ap-
proach of the expedition was having a good
effect. IL is presumed that the object of the
revolution was to change the fundamental laws
of the republic, and the destrust of President
Juarez was the principal cause Of the disloyalty
of the Yucatans,

A NEw GAME OF EUCHKE.-The English have
made an improvement in the mode Of playing this
gsme, description Of which will no doubt prove
interesting to euehre players. For example, with
every pack Of playing cards sold there is one
blank card at the top of the deck, used in this
country frequently as a marker" But the
English make better use of this white-faced
card. They include it in the suits, making fifty
three to the deck instead Of ifty.two, and to the
euehre deck twenty-nine instead OF twenty-eight
cards This blank card at first vas called /" Louis
Napoleon" but has been subsequently corrupted
into the less euphonious title Of "yerker.n The
"yerker," then, is the highest ranking cardin the
euehre deck, having capacity to capture either OF
the bowers or the ace, so that man may be
euchred even with the ace and two bowers.
Whenever the "yerker" is tnrned up by the
dealer, that person has the privilege Of making
The trump, and can make it TO the most adyan
tsgeous suit in his hand. The game ia novel, and
we understand affords mneh diversion to ths
players.
