TIE OLD GAME.-A resident of the city
received letter yesterday, from some one
who gave his address as DR.. C. C. Perry, No.
lO7 Thompson street. New York;" stating
that the said Perry had become possessed Of
the original plates from which the 81, 81 and
S. Government notes had been printed, and
had en- hand $3.50, 900 in bills, which he had
made. These he claimed to be perfect imita-
tions of the genuine, the only difference being
in the quality of the paper, and that difference
was SO slight that not one man in a thousand
would detect it. He offered to sell them at
reasonable rates-S6OO for $50, for example
$50 to be sent in advance, and the balance
after the counterfeits had been received. 1t
is scarcely necessary to say that the trans
parent little game did not gull the person
who received the letter, but as similar epistles
have doubtless been scattered broadcast
through tie State, it is probable that Perry
will receive occasional Advances" from green
ones, who, in attempting to swindle the Gov.
eminent, will find themselves bitten, and in
such a manner that they would be ashamed
to confess it.-Saerapaento Union.

TON PITCH IuTEIVIyWID.

The Washington correspondent Of th,
Sacramento Union faroishes the follow
ing report Of an Interview with cur dis
). tinguisbsd Congressman, Hon. Ton
Fitch:
Happening across Fitch of Nevada TO-DAY
it struck me that it wouldn't be . bad idea to
interview" him on the Indian question.
How about your good dead Indians = "
I asked.
"Why, have been misunderstood, said
he, "that's all. And have Just been read
| ing that Choctaw memorial. which attributes
| to me sentiments different from those
really uttered"
Tell me. then, ~hat is your real position
and how such 4 mistake could be made"
said l.
"Nothine easier" responded he. 1.-THE
ChoctaSs, Cherokees, Creeks and others in
habit the country known as the Indian Ter
ritory, the land whereof was ceded to them
By the United States and is occupied by them.
Much of it is cultivated and much is devoted
to the raising of stock. These Indians have
government, are peaceful and partially civ
ilized. l have no intention of supporting
any bill to take their land away and give it
to railroad companies, because in their case
it is their land upon which they are living. |
But the claim If Red Cloud to receive pay |
for all the land occupied by the Union Psci- |
fc Railroad Company, and the claim of any |
wild Indians to an ownership Of land which |
they neither cultivate nor use in any way
Shatever except for hunting grounds, l re-
gard as absurd and not to be tolerated. If
We respected such a claim, we wonld either
shut out civilization from the Plains or turn
the Indian land over to Indian traders"
But, surely" interrupted l, ''you would
not cut them off entirely from land ben
efts ?"
81 would give an Indian exactly that
which l would give a white mana hundred
and sixty acres free, if he will put it to use.
But to give him a hundred and sixty thou
sand acres to hunt rabbits and scalps in is
quite another proposition"
VERY true !; but how about that speech :"
4ueried 1.
+" said in the speech to which that mem
'rial refers. that the Shoshone and the buff
alo will be domesticated, the Apache and
he panther externinated' and those In
iians who will not be peaceful and will insist
IN numbering emigrants ought to be exter-
The others l would not interfere
Nth. As an antipode TO the idea that would
shut out civilization in order to give the In
liam large hunting grounds and that would
Justify the Indians IN attacking settlers, on
he ground that we have somehow wronged ]
he Indian BY going into his hunting ground, {
said this: that there sceye those scho BE- I
'ered the good Indians were the dead Indi- =.
ms. did not express that sentiment as =.
aine. At the same time !. am rather in
lined 10 indorse the sentiment. never met q
ny Indians that could regard as especially |
ahsSie."
During the interview there was more said, h
ut this gives the meat, and brevity will make
more interesting" !:

If English travellers and satirists, from
Basil Hall and Dickens down to Gustavu
Adolphus Sala, had written Of New Eng
land people with half the sauciness and
incisiveness of Mr.. j. w. De Forest, in
his clever story of "Miss Ravcnel's Con-
versation from Secession to Loyalty" re.
Gently published by the Harpers, our
Yankee brethren would have poured out
the vials of their gall upon them with
forty North. american Reriew-power. For
example, take the following neat little
cabinet picture Of Down~East damsel:
"Thin-lipped, hollow checked, narrow
chested, with only one lung and an inter.
mi.tent digestion, without single round
ed outline or graceful movement, she vas
a sad example ST what the New England
east winds can do in enfesbling and dis
torting the human from divine. Even her
smile was n woeful phenomenon it SEEM
cd to be rather symptom Of pain than
an expression of pleasure it was kind
of gripping smile, like that of an infant
with tho colic."

WHOLE No. 7O2,

"Mary, suppose thee heard that
have bought thy cid place? l have q
it fitted up, and thee and the childre
shall ride over after breakfast and see il
I think thee will like it,"
They rode over, and Mary was surpris
ed to see the changes which had take,
place. They looked over the lower room
srst; and over the mantle piece, in tn
sitting room, was frame, and under tn,
glass, in large gold letters, were thes
words:
mot A DROP MORE, DANIEL ~
Mary, on reading these words, said
"Oh, friend Edgerton, if Daniel coulG
have said these words, and stuck to them
this beautiful place might have still beer
his"
"Then thee don't know where Daniel
is ?" asked the Quaker.
"No; l have not heard anything of bin
Tor more than three years."
"Thee would like to see him, would thee
not?'
''Oh, yes indeed should
''Let Us walk up stairs"
As they went up the front stairs, DAN
lei slipped down the back ones. and took
his stand in the front room. When they
returned, Mrs Akin noticed a stalwart
man standing in the room with his back
to the door, and started back for an in
stant. The Quaker said:
''lt is a friend, Mary"
Daniel turned round; but in the man
with the heavy beard and moustache Mary
did not recognize her husband. Daniel
advanced to the spot where Mary was
standing, and, in voice tremulous with
emotion, exclaimed
Don't you know me Mary p
We leave the reader to imagine what
the meeting was. Friend Edgerton said
he must go and see Amy, and addressing
himself to Mary, said
MARY, this house and farm are thine.
Daniel has got the papers, and will give
them to thee. Thee can stay here as long
as thee likes; thee will live happy once
more, for that (pointing to the frame over
the mantle-piece) Not drop more, Dan
iel, is his motto now, and will be as long
as he lives.''
Daniel and his wife fell on their knees
before the Lord. Their prayers were
mingled with many tears, but in their fa-
ture lives those prayers were found to be
answered.
Several years have passed away since
the above events occurred, and Daniel
Akin, now an earnest Christian man, still
sticks to his motto:
"Not a drop more, Daniel."

As an original expression of heavy
grief we doubt if any thing more touch.
ing has been read than the following, of a
crushed heart in Star City, Nevada, Mrs.
E, of that place, an eccentric old
lady, recently rushed into the room of
relative, and without waiting for the usual
salutations, said:
swell, Johns dcadlr Her husband.
''Dead! sit possible p
"Yes; dead Died last right! Want
you all to come to the funeral. The Ma.
sons and Odd Fellows gre going to turn
out, and we shall have beautiful time"
Deaths being OF rare occurrence in the
settlement, Of course every body went to
the funeral. Next day somebody remark
ed to the old lady that there was large
turn -out.
''Yes, there was" she replied 'but I
didn't enjoy myself as we'll as have at
some funerals, the bosses cut up so!'

If there is any defect more striking than
another in the American character it j,
bashfulness. Young America, in particu
lar. is painfully affected by it. An Incl
den. is mentioned by correspondent, who
was desired by his aunt to go to neishbor
Shaw's and see if he had for sale any
straw suitable for filing beds. "Mr.
Shaw" says our informant, twas blessed
with goodly number of Misses Shaw,
and l therefore felt little timid at en-
countering them. To make the matter
worse, l arrived just as the family were
seated for dinner. Stopping in the door,
way, hat in hand, stammered out: Mr.,
StroT, can you spare enough Shaw Is Eli
a couple of beds?' well, replied the old
gentleman, glancing around at his large
family and enjoying my mistake, Il don't
know but can; ho,r many will you need?'
Before Icould recover, those hateful Shaw
girls burst into u chorus of laughter, and
returned to my excellent aunt

Good old Deacon s. lived and farm

1t was his custom to go with several of
his neighbors, nearly every year, down to
the 'Shore" for clam bake. The old
Deacon was very fond Of these bivalves,
and on one occasion no ate and overloaded
his capacity to such an extent that he
was sore distressed; his faith in prayer,
however, was strong. Leaving his party,
and being followed by some Of the young

heard to supplicate thus: Forgive me, O
Lord, for this great sin of gluttony, and l
will never eat any more clams!' Then,
pausing an instant, he added "Te,y

We learn from private letter that o
citizen Of Hickory county last week met
with singular piece of good fortune.
While at Kansas City, in September, go,
he purchased an old trank, advertised as
unclaimed property" by the United
States Express Company, which proved
to contain only some valuelsss articles
and dirty clothing. On his arrival at
home the trunk was converted into re-
ceptacle for wood, for which purpose it
was used till a week since, when, being
partially demolished, it was converted in.
to kindling-wosd. Between the wo:d and
zinc bottom was fouad So ,0S5. The trunk
bore no marks to indicate who the owner
might have been, aud the most reasona-
bic supposition is that it was shipped to
some fictitious name, and contained stolen
money, which, either by the interference
of arrest, or from fear Of detection, re-
mained uncalled for.-Sedalia No. Ba'
