IMPORTANT ORDER FROM HEADQUARTERS
General Candy has issued the following in.
teresting order:
Prescott journal. [volume] (Prescott, Wis.) 1861-1871, 1869-10-08
Josh Billings ON Baii Heads.

This remarkable beast Of prey dwells
in mill ponds and mud puddles, ciuss to
the ground, and lives upon yoang Lizards
and dirt.
They have no taste to their mouths,
and never spit out ennything that they
kan swallo.
They have two ugly black thorns stick
ing out on the sides ov their head, aud
are az dangerous tew handle az SIX
baded penknife, with the blades all
open to onst.
They are like kat; you have got to
skin them before they are fit to eat, and
after they are throughIy cooked, if you
set them away in the cupboard until
they git cold they will begin lie. anew,
and become az raw az live mule.
They will live, after they are ded, az
long az striped snaiks kan.
l don't advise emmy man to fish for
bullheads, but if you feel az tho yu
must, this IL the only best way to do it:
Take hot, dark, drizzIy night in the
month of June; steal out quietly from
home; tell yure folks yu a.e goin' to the
nabors to borry settn' of hens eggs;
find a saw log on the banks of stagnant
mill-pond, one end ov which lays in the
water; drive the mudturkles and water
snaiks oph from the log; straddle the log,
and let yure leggs hang in the water up
to yure carriers; bait yure hook with a
chunk of old injunrubber shoe; as fast as
yu pull up the bull heads, take them by
the back ov the neck and stab their horns
into saw-log when yu got the saw-log
stuck ful, shoulder the saw-log and leave
for home; get up the next morning very
carly, skin the bull beds, and split up the
saw-log into kindiug wood, let yure wife
cook them for breakfast and sware the
whole family to keep dak about it.
This is the only respectable way to
have enneything to do with ll-heds.

How CsnnibaIs Cook,

Some French soldiers were lately ia
ken prisoners by cannibals in the South
Sea Islands, and one OF them was killed
and eaten. His comrades describe the
process. The Kanaks first dccapitate
their victim; n matter of no small diff.
Guilty considering the bluntness of their
hatchets. Ten TO fifteen blows are ne
cessary. The body is then hung up to a
tree by the feet, and the blood allowed to
run out for an hour Meanwhile hole
yard and half deep and yard wide
is dug in the ground The hole is lined
with stones, aud in the midst of them a
great fire is lit. When the wood is burn
ed down a little and glows with heat, it is
covered over with more stones. The man
is then cleaned out and divided into pieces
about a foot long, the hands and feet be-
ing thrown away as worthless. The
pieces Of the man are placed on the
leaves of n large rose tree peculiar to the
tropics. The meat is surrounded with
cocoa nuts, bananas, and some other
plants noted for their delicate flavor.
The whole is then tied together firmly
the fire is removed from the pit; the
meat is placed in among the hot stones,
and thus, carefully covered, is left to cook
for an hour. Women do not partake Of
this warriors feast. Men alone are per-
mitied TO enjoy so great an honor and SO
rare a delicacy, which is another striking
instance of the tyranny of the male sex,
and demands Inc appearance of some
South Sea Stanton or Anthony to claim
equal rights for the women.
