A Dog That Plays Euchre.

On Saturday evening, June 18th, 9
listless party were sitting in the cabin Of
the Providence steamer Metis. A disa-
greeable northeaster made it unpleasant
to remain on deck. A middle aged
keen eyed. sandy haired man was the
most restless individual in the cabin
II appeared to be somewhat annoyed by
the walking backward and forward of a
dark haired fine looking young man
whose every step was followed and move
nlents watched by large sized Spanish
poodle that slightly limped with his left
fore leg. The sandy haired man finally
accosted the man with the dog:
Il say, stranger, it's very dull here
can't we get up a game Of euchre 2"
81 don't care much about playing, sir;
but my dog here plays tolerably fair
game. Perhaps he'll try hand with
you"
mo jokes, if you please; I am an old
euchre player, and very fond of the
game l once played three nights in
succession with General Hillyer, and
beat him two games to his one, )" said the
sandy haired man, rather sternly.
II am not joking, sir; tell You hon
estly that my Cog can play q good game
of euchre I'll warm him up little,
and show you what he can do before you
play with him."
By this time the conversation had at
tracted the attention of the other passen-
gers, and they had gathered around the
dog and men.
Now, gentlemen, please step back, so
as to form a good sized ring, and we'll
show you specimens of canine sagaclty
that may astonish you" said the owner
of the dog.
As soon as the ring had been made,
the dog man shouted.
"Come, Sport, give US walk around
on your ear.
Sport Immediately raised himself on
his forelegs, and walked around the cir
Gle with his head close to the carpet, his
lame leg giving him the appearance of
sliding on his ear.
The man next took ten cent stamp,
rolled it up into little newspaper ball,
made a dozen other balls of the same
size and appearance, mixed them up and
threw them on the carpet.
"Now, Sport, pick out the one with
the stamp In it.
Sport Immediately walked around the
paper wads, looked at them eagerly, and
pulled out the one with the stamp.
Sports master now pulled pack of
cards, about the size Of ordinary playing

what Grant whispered to Lee.

When Lee and Grant met at the house
of Mr. Mclean, near Appomattox court
house, to arrange for the capitulation oi
the army of northern Virginia, an incl
dent occurred which has remained unex
planned for over six years. The terms
of the proposed surrender were discuss
cd, freely and openly, before the mem
bers of the two stats, until, suddenly,
drawing his chair up to that of the Con-
federate chieftain, Grant whispered a
few earnest words into the ear of Lee.
naughty shake of the head from the
latter, and brief answer in undertone,
evidently of peremptorily negative or
der, was noticed by those in attendance.
The import of that bit of mysterious by
play has just been furnished for the first
time. In the August number of Old
and Ne,o, Edward A. Pollard, the his
torian of the Confederacy, reveals the
secret. The whispered confab was moth
ing less than proposition from Grant
that Lees soldiers should, then and
there, subscribe to the oath of allegiance,

Crime North and South.

In the better days of the Republic the
laws of Congress were regarded as being
general in their operation and affected all
alike without regard to latitude, longitude
or previous condition. But recently
taking the Kuklux act and its enforce
ment, it would seem that it is applicable
to but one section, the late slave States;
and the mere circumstance Of a man
being a gentleman and residing in the
South is sufficient to cause his arrest and
punishment. There has been, since the
war, more crimes of every kind known
to the decalogue, committed in the North
ern than in the Southern States, but the
Kuklux law has never been enforced in
that section. There have been bloody
riots in New York, Pennsylvania and
California, but these do not elicit as
much comment from the Radical press as
the whipping of guilty negro in the
South

How TO LEARN TO FLY.--The other

he therefore suggested that horizontal

assistance for young and inexperienced

None are louder in denouncing this ia

for the sake of getting a plausible plea
for engaging United States troops to
protect it, is not to be justified on any
possible pretext," while the New York
