NASHVILLE.

NASHVILLE, May 2S.-Tbe case o.
Dinkelspiels VS.. Western Union Tele
graph Company, was argued before
Judge Carey in the Circuit Court to-day
The plaintiff had received a proposition
for the purchase of goods from parties al
franklin, Kentucky, which was to be &C
copied by telegraph at or before speci'
fed time. The telegram accepting the
trade was deposited in the telegraph
office here before the specified hour, but
was not received at franklin sntil after
the time. The parties at Franklin de-
clined the trade, whereupon the plaintiff
sued the telegraph company for his con-
segment loss on account of the delay OF
the telegram. The Judge charged that
the fact Of this telegram being deposited
in the office here by or before the time
specified, was completion Of the con-
tract, whether it was forwarded promptly
or not, and that the plaintiffs recourse
was upon the parties at franklin and not
upon the telegraph company.

Lo, the Pom Indinn.

In the vacant space JUST above the old
Granite mill, on Main street, at the
upper part of Gold Hill, the other after
noon, We noticed the above noted indi-
vidual sitting on the ground in the sua,
with half a dozen more of his bacon
colored tribe, around On old blanket,
which was spread out, INDUCING in a
quiet game of poker-"bi bit ante" On
the blanket were several bits and quar-
ters, in all amounting to perhaps six or
seven dollars. Around this group stood
or reclined, in various positions, some
IL or Is others-bucks, squa1s, little
"injuus" and pappooses-nll deeply
absorbed in the game; so much so that
they scarcely noticed u inqnisitire
gaze. And such a motley dressed
crowd as they were, too! Every buck,
big or little, that could raise an old
plug hat or q red shirt had il on; and
one old squaw had a small lace cap or
hat stuck on top of her thick mass OF
hair. like = postage stamp on a hay
stack. It was indeed . quiet game, not
one OF ths dusky gamblers speaking a
word, but handling the cards dexter
ously and with the stoical silence of old
"sports," while the rest huddled closely
and iu,ere,tedly about them.
But so it goes. The progress OF civ
iliza,iou brings to poor Lo all the vices,
and precious few Of the virtues, Of the
white man. As to that matter, however,
Lo and his Piute family representatives
possess in reality far more OF the real
virtues which are supposed to adorn
good society than we give them credit
for. Their virtues, as compared with
their vices, outnumber the proportion
in that respect prevalent in the society
Of the "pale face" Lo saws wood
and does other work willingly when he
needs coin or grub, and never steals,
swindles or gets drunk, rio.ous, disor-
DERBY and into the statiou-house. Ex-
Governor Low Of California was never
considered q "poor Indian" aud even
if he was We hardly think he could out
play our Lo at poker-anything but that
no, nor even at "seven up" for Lo
could turn "Jack" on him, is pretty
sure to get "game" if he goes after it,
and is always Lo.

Circulars are being pretty freely circulated
throughout the West BY packers in Chicago and
elsewhere. representing tbs hog crop - shos sone
800, 900 or 400, 600 hogs. We saw ono of those
circulars yesterday, which was full of croakings
concerning pork Famine which 10 to come upon
the people. Contra, . commission merchant in
this city showed m letter hs had received from
: prominent OK hog pscksr ef Chicago, who has
been closely examining thesta Of the hog mar

on deliveries Of hogs It packing and shipping
points up to date il not 100 600 behind the delive
ry of 1857, while the average weight 1t most Of
the packing points is very much greater than last
year. The probability IL that the receipts in
February and March viii b greatly In excess Of
1867, from the fact that farmers, at present prices
for hogs, are making their corn net them from SOC
to 81 per bushel for feeding.
So 1t is not unlikely that pork -sating humanity

And Is for lard for shortening, housewives need
not feel alarmed, for 1t many points, according to

greater than in 1857.
