And in the wild birds song.

and some stock. lie thinks as soon as
he can get Il good Orchard on the place
the principal, thing he wishes to do is, to
dry fruit and put up'in cans, and also to
can up Vegetables, such as Tomatoes,
Corn, Beans, &C., he thinks sheep would
pay and thought he might get place
near Kenncsaw Mountain or part of the
Mountain, it would do well for sheep
He has some fine mining property and
would like to trade it for land, and would
be pleased to know what he can buy
land for, for cash. He would like to
know what kind Of crop of fruit is on the
trees now, as if he goes South this sum.
MGR, he would like to get a place with
some trees ON it and dry some fruit this

SUPPLEMENT TO OTTAWA FREE TRADER, FEB 3
KIepiol,,:auia.

Shrewd criminal lawyers have of late years
invented new plea TO help off rogues. They
are aided to some extent by certain class of
writers on Medical Jurisprudence. They allsge
that certain class OF persons are at times trou.
bled with kind Of insanity or mania, and that
ing other peoples property iR their pockets or
extemporizing '"Grs;ian bend.' They term
this kind OF Insanity or mania-kieptomania or
klopemania word that has been man ufac-
tured to suit the from the Greek words
kSold theft, and mania madness hence, klope-
mania or mania for stealing We are led to be-
heve that this kind of madness is becoming very
prevalent. A glance at Mondays and TUESDAYS
Pittsburgh Dalies almost confirmed US in this
belief. We found under the head Of Telegraph
ic News" the account of four big cases of this
kind OF madness In Baltimore city several per-
sons were suddenly attacked with klopeman;a
and evinced it by quietly breaking into bank
and carving off $l25,000 And after the FASH
ion of mad people, they did il so cunningly and
adroitly that the Police have no clue whatever
that will assist in the capture of these dangerous
mad fellows. In New York this disease seems
as fearfully prevalent as hydrophobia in dog
days.
On Monday there were no less than three des-
perate cases Of it reported. One fellow was sud-
denly seized with fearful attack of it while
gazing through the plate glass panel that pre-
tects the counter of the Park Bank, and unable
TO restrain himself, smashed the glass to flinders
and grabbing package Of four thousand dollars,
rushed out and handing the package to d fellow
mailman made his escape. The confederate
however, was captured and the money recovered
A half a dozen men were suddenly seized with
the same mania and attempted to relieve Mr..
and Mrs. Lynch. who keep jewelry store on
Broadway, as they were proceeding horneward,
Of a satchel containing $4,000 worth Of dia.
monds. And when the police attempted to take
charge OF these DANGEROUS men, they resisted
after the fashion Of desperate insane people, aad
actually succeeded in making their escape and
are now at large. This madness has no respect
fer sacred things, or no dread of the ghosts of
the departed. On Saturday night last the Office
of Calvary Cemetery was broken into and
$4,000 carried off by some fellows who had q
desperate fit of this kind Of insanity. Where is
this to end Is all the world going mad, aad
every of liable to an attach, of either this
disease or some one like it ?-N. Y. Sun.

The Presidents Friends.

One or two of the journals raise great
clamor about the President appointing
personal friends to Office. as though that
was an unheard-of thing in American pol
itics If a President finds among the
men.personally ard Familiarity known to
him some who are capable of filling with
ability public posts, he is fortunate man,
and does well to appoint them. He is re-
sponsible for the conduct of his subordi-
mates, and if he can get men whom he
knows to be capable and honest to accept
subordinate places he will be only the more
certain that the country will be well served.
1t is odd that nobody has complained yet
that the person appointed by Gen. Grant
are incapable or ofimproper character but
only that they are Grant friends Is it
crime then, to have known the President
The fact is that Gen. Grant has ap-
pointed fewer of his personal friends to
office than any of his recent predecessors;
but he has done what was done openly, he
has concealed nothing he might very
easily have slipped in the name of "a rela-
tive or friend among batch" of APP
pointments, and thus avoided notice. But
he'has not chosen to hide anything.

Treasure Seeking in the New York
Sewers.
from the New York Times March 25

From the New York Times, March 25l
Yesterday morning in the dim light OF
opening day, a singularly habited individ-
ual incased In rubber boots with high leg
gings rubber overcoat and cap, besmeared
with mud, and carrying capacious and
well-filled carpet-bag, was observed issu-
ing from the ferry-house Hoboken. His
appearance attracted the attention OF off
Ger Burke, who well knowing the days of
political carpet baggers had mostly passed
away, accosted the stranger, took him in
charge as suspicious character, and had
him lodged in prison. In his cell Of SKA
the prisoner remained some hours, until
the arrival of Justice Pope, before whom
he was examined.
The bag was opened and its contents
spread out on the floor to be scrutlnized by
the police court official What medley
of articles met there gaze! There were
old watches and silver spoons, knives jew
elry and bottles Of liquor, considerable
quantity OF old pennies, some ancient
date, ten cent pieces, silver pencil-cases
and finger rings Zone Of which is supposed
to be a valuable diamond ring, together
with various other articles. He was asked
by the recorder to explain how these ar
tlcles had got into his possession, and his
explanation is a singular one, to say least
of it. He appears to be an intelligent and
we'll educated man, and told story which
left no doubt in the mind of the Judge
as to its truthfulness. He gave his name
as John ". Crane, Down Easter" by
birth and residence. He had frequently
heard fabulous accounts of the wealth of
the Empire City and having seen a year
ago paragraph in Boston paper, de-
scribing the adventure of woman and
a boy in the New York sewers, he deter
mined to seek for the treasures which he
supposed to be contained in the under
ground city. He lett the Hub and started
for New York, where he arrived IN due
time. With the spirit of adventure and
shrewdness of Yankee he provided him
self with a rubber outfit, ground may
showing all the sewers in the city, COM
pass, candles and six-shooter tc protect
himself against rats or anything else that
might impede progress After donning
the waterproof apparel he entered sewer
in.Houston street, on Tuesday last near
North River. He picked his way through
all day, and never stopped until yester-
day morning when having his bag filled,
he emerged about A. NJ. from a sewer
near the Hoboken Ferry. disappearance
being very uninviting, he considered it
best to go to Hoboken for the purpose of
cleaning himself preparatory to his APP
pearance among his friendsin New York.
Everything indicating MS story 20 be
true, the prisoner was discharged from
custody.

AN ECONOMICAL ADMINISTRATION
The Chicago Republicans Washington
dispatch has the following:
The policy Of retrenchment and econo-
my Of the new administration is being
begun with vigor, and all the departments
are fast cutting down their expenses
Secretary Boutwell, is taking the lead, and
already he has accomplished much to-
ward saving the peaple' money. He be-
gins by the reduction of the clerical force
in his own immediate Office, and announ-
ces that no appointments, whatever will
be made, and that the places of the per-
sons whom he has removed, and whom
ne intends to remove, will not be filled
This course is rendered necessary. not
only by the economical policy which has
been decided upon, but the reduced APP
preparations for the Departments for the
present fiscal year. In the Printing Blu
reau, about seventy female and fifteen
male employees haye been notified that
their services will not be required after
the LIST Of April, and this reduction alone
will effect a saving of 81, 200 month -
A large reduction win be made in each
of the eight auditors offices, the work
having largely fallen off, and as more en-
ployees were retained by Secretary
McCulloch than was necessary to do the
current work. In the Third Auditor S
Office, $50 clerks are at present employed,
while the law allows only 273. and the
Auditor Clarke, is already looking about
him and will soon make large reduction.
The government printing Office is also be-
ing improved by TIE retrenchment fever,

whatever else it accomplishes or fails e

promises in the way of reform and re-
trenchment, and economy.
