PRECISION IN BUSINESS.

+ On certain Saturday night the
clerks of the Bank of England could
mot mako the balance come out right
by just one hundred pounds. This is
a serious matter in that establishment
not the cash, but the discrepancy,
however slight. An ereor in balanc-
ing has been known to keep belega.
ton of clerks from each department at
work sometimes through the whole
night. A hue and cry was therefore
made after this one hundred pounds,
as if an old lady in Thread-needle
street would be in the Gazette as an
insolvent, for want of it. Luckily on
the Sunday morning following, the
clerk in the middle of the sermon,
perhaps felt suspicion of the truth
dart through his mind quicker than a
lighting flash. He told the chief
esther, ON Monday morning that per-
haps the mistake might have been
made in packing some boxes of specie
for the West Indies, which had been
sent to Southampton for shipment.
The suggestion was Immediately acted
upon. Here was Il race tightening
against steam, and steam with start
of fort weight hours. Instantly the
wires asked wether such vessel had
cleft harbor. -
"Just weighing anchor" was the
reply.
"Stop her." frantically shouted the
telegraph. 1t was done.
'tHave on deck certain boxes mark
ed so and so, and weigh the N care
fully"
They were weighed and one, the
delinquent, was found heavier by just
one packet of a hundred SOW origins,
than it should have been. ''Let her
CO." says the mysterious telegraph.
The West India folks were debited to
just one hundred pounds more, and
the error was corrected without look
ing into the boxes, or delaying the
vessel an hour.

The Plain Indians.
ST.: LOUIS, Dec. l!

General Sully has arrived at Fort
Harker General Sheridan's camp was
below Fort Dodge. The General thinks
that with the exception of rowing bands
of young braves, who will continue to
infest the roads and attack small par
ties, the hostile Indians have taken re-
fuge in the Comanche country, where
the campaign must be continual this
Winter. General Sully thinks it i'm
possible to end the war this winter, on
account of the character and extent of
the country in which the savages have
taken refuge. General Harvey rrrived
last night from the Upper Missouri,
where he has been experimenting the
location of Indian reservations. The
tribes have settled on reservations as
follows On the first reservation, at
the mouth of the Whitestone Creek,
above Fort Randall. are some of the
Brules, Ogallalas, and Plates. Among
these are the French half-breeds, Bor-
deau, CARR, Bossonetts, and Charlie
Garrian, The Indians here number
$500 they seemed contented, and
were enjoying their dances. The Chey-
enne reservation is below the mouth of
Big Cheyenne river. The tribes are
those of the two sons of Kettle, the
Arcs, Mincordons, and Lower YanktOns
about 1000 i'll number. Next Spring
the Indians at this point will number
$500 in all. The next point establish
ed is on Grand River, below Fort Rye,
with portions of the Upper Yanktons,
Catheads, Blackfeet and Sioux, num-
bering 1900. The residue of the above
tribes are out hunting. Should they
all come in it would swell the number
at this point to 11,000. Spotted Tail
was at the forks of White River, with
Bear, Standing Elk and Big Mouth,
and other Indian celebrities recently
from the North Platte. A reservation
is to be established at this point for the
Brules, and it is in contemplation to
establish another at Moreau, below
Grand River, for the Blackfeet and
Sioux, who are drawing supplies from
Grand River. Although it was late III
the season when the operations were
begun, 5000 Indians are now fed. The
reservations are well supplied with the
necessaries of life and the Indians are
comfortable. General Harvey will visit
Washington and strive to persuade
Congress to ratify the treaty that was
made in July last with the Sioux.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 15.-Col. Wyn
koop, late agent of the Arapahoe In
dams, is to be in Washington to-mor
row to settle his accounts with the De
partment. His resignation is still il

c2n THgRE BEHARMIS KISSING
The waters Kiss tbs pebbly shore;
The winds all kiss tho hills;
Tho sunboams kiss tho tuIip bud
For tho oder it listilis.
The aew-drops kiss tho rose at morn,
The .cersas dew al svs s,,. -. -.
The fern md dowcr In circling olasp; ~
a&EgT6eir mystic beauties wsays,l. y ~ Z
The moon-beams kiss the clouds at night {;
Tho star gems kiss the sea;
While shadows dreamy, soft, ani light,
AFRO kissing ontihe elea,JY
The 1ePhyrs kiss the budding pink
That blooms on beau,y's lip,
And ruder blasts, though cold and chill,
It's ruby nectar sip.
The'winds,a the waves, tho budding 40 wers
The laughing, merry rills.
Are kissing NIL from morn till eve,
And clouds still kiss the hills
Even heaven and earth do meet TO kiss
Through tears of sparkling dew,
In kissing, then, can there DO harmf
don't think so-do you?
