The alleged outrage on the boy at the Or
phan Asylum in Brooklyn was so revolving and
atrociOus as first reported, that we are glad for
the credit of human nature TO make prominent
the complete contradiction of the worst features
of the story. 1t appeared at the trial of the
parties concerned on Saturday, that there was
no diabOlical intent to inflict pain on the boy
in the way of vengeful punishment, but
that we'll authorized remedy was pre-
scribed for very bad case, though perhaps it
may have been carelessly or roughly applied. 1t
seems that the boy sustained no serious inju-
ries, after all. Dr. Hyde and the matron were
discharged by the courts and should also be
exOnentcd at the bar of public opinion.

A bill has been rushed through both branches
of our Legislature which imposes a State tax
of three quarters of mill (say S1,3OO0OO) for
improving and extending our Canals-S281 800

tension; $24l, 900 for improving the Genesee
Valley (Which does not pay the cost of running

the Senate, it was not even sent to Committee
of the Assembly, but put through with no
more consideration or debate than if it had
been "An act entitled al act to change the

The people of Texas voted some weeks since,
by large majority, to hold a Convention to
form a State Constitution under the Recon
structiOn acts of Congress- Thus far we have not
seen any official notice of the time when that
Convention shall meet. Gen. Buchanan, now
in command of the Texas satrapy," is known
not to favor Reconstruction under the plan of
Congress- but his duty as soldier is plain and
imperative. Should he longer hesitate to per
form it, may we not hope that he will he adj

A correspondent signing himself Georgia
informs us that he has lost 100000 worth of
slaves by the emancipation policy of the Re
publican party, and asks if that is consistent
with that clause of the Constitution which
forbids private property to be taken for public
uses without just compensation. We will reply
to his conundrum by asking him another.
When our Savior, on one occasion, meeting
two men possessed of devils i'll very
aggravating and excessive number, ordered the
devils to depart and enter into certain swine
which were feeding near at hand, and when
the swine, under this sudden and unfortunate
inspiration, kicked up their heels and with
one accord "ran down steep place into
the sea and were drowned" had the owner
of the swine q right of action in trespass
against their Creator for taking his private
property for public Use without paying for
itf If so, then Georgia is entitled TO pay
for the loss of his slaves.

WHAT THE WIND SAYs.

Through the city rushing wildly,
Midst the haunts of vice and pain,
Through the mansions of the wealthy,
Sweeping proudly with disdain;
Through the forests, Ter the lea,
Always saying-"Follow me-"
Through the village, whiting gaily,
Where the happy children play,
Quickly DER the dreary hillside,
Where the traveller pIods his way
Ever onward, never weary,
Always saying-"Follow me.'
Rustling through the yellow grain fields,
Where the weary reapers ply,
Through the valley, where the lovers
Pluck the lilies laugh and sigh
Midst the lighnings, DER the sea, a.

SALTEO HIS TEA,

a plucky old fellow had son, who was
student in one OF our New England
colleges, and one day thought he would
visit the institution. He did SO, spent
the day there, and was invited to stop to
tea. He accepted the invitation, and up
on receiving his ration of the celestial
fluid, reached out and seized bowl of
what he supposed to be white sugar, but
which was in reality salt With this
condiment he proceeded literally to
sweeten his tea. Presently he perceived
from the sly glances towards him, and
by the general whispering and snickering
that something was wrong, and he right
ly coniectured it was some act of his,
and when, upon his tasting his tea, the
smoker expanded into horse laugh, he
hadn't much doubt as to what the mat
ter was.
The old gent didn't like to be laughed
at, especially by parcel of school, boys,
so with Spartan resolution, he worried
down the abominable compound, wishing,
no doubt, that those boys could be made
to drink q quart each before going to
prayers in the morning. Giving final
gulp, and putting on face that was IN
tended to make everybody think that he
liked his dose Of salts, he called for an
other cup, and upon receiving it, said to
the head snickerer, g Young man will
you be kind enough to pass that bowl of
salt !? The salt was passed and amid the
most breathless sileLce, he dipped a cou-
pie OF spooniuls into his tea, STIRRED it
up and tasted it with a look of apparent
satisfa c.ion. "Why, Mir" said the
young man opposite him, " do you drink
salt in your ca Always" answered
the plucky old man, with great emphasis
and in his pleasentest manner,

PLEA FOR THE EXISTENCE OF
DRAGONS

Mr.. Waterhouse Hawkins, a distin-
gulshed English naturalist, is now lectur-
ing In New York. In bis last lecture he
argued that dragons have actually existed.
Although he did not aver that this creature
was all that fanciful authors had claimed
Tor It, yet he hoped to prove that reptile
answering somewhat to the received de-
scrlptlon once existed. It was worthy of
note that all races of people made similar
representations of this reptile. The cobra's
mode OF attacking and poisoning, it's vic
tim, IFS power of expanding the ribs and
IN fiatnlng itself so as to facilitate its pas
sage through the air when darting upon
Whatever 1t desires to seize, was also ex-
planned. This reptile, the lecturer
thought, is the only living representative
OF the flying dragon. The flying fish,
the bat, and flying squirrel were next
spoken OF as showing the general unity of.
type that pertains to the animal kingdom,
and evlnclng the fact that nature is pro-
lifie IN It's adaptions, but economic of the
means it employs. The lecture was closed
by description of the manner in which
the lecturer come to construct the dragon
on exhibition at Sydenham. Particles of
the original bony structure of the head
and vertebra were found, and also por-
tlon Of the wing framework. The size
Of the parts discovered showed that the
creature when alive must have had bat-like
wings, measuring sixteen feet six inches
from tip to tip. Other bones were found
belonging to dragon, whose wings we're
eighteen feet, and subsequent discoveries
justified the belief that another of these
'scaly" creatures, reasoning from like
analogy, had wings twenty mine feet from
lip to tip. He was perfectly satisfied
hat dragons are among the extinct repti-
la, and that they were both of acquatic
md terrestrial formations AS to the
iery qualifications alleged to have belong
I'd to these creatures, there might even be
| shadow of reasoning alleged. Many of
hem-those of acquatic formation-fed
IN fish, and the decomposed PARTICLES re-
naming in the teeth of the reptile being
highly phosphorescent, may have given
o the dragons mouth an appearance of
ire, and thus originated the fantiful and
irightful legends with which the dragon
$ always associated.

A LITTLE STORY ABOUT GRANT.-A
correspondent furnishing us with the fol-
lowing incident, illustrating one of the
leading traits in the character of our future
President
During the Petersburg campaign of
1864 several privates were engaged in
unloading barrels of salt horse from a
transport at City Point, and were in charge
of lieutenant of New York regiment,
who took every occasion to show his
authority. To one of his abusive remarks
one of the privates made reply, whereupon
the lieutenant administered severe kicks
to the offender, who offered no resistance.
but continued on with his work. A
short, thick-set man, wearing slouched
hat and rather seedy officers cloak,
who had been standing by for some time,
hereupon threw off his coat and cloak and
proceeded to help unload the transport.
After the task was accomplished the
officer donned his cloak and coat. and
asked the lieutenant in very civil terms
