Mule Artillery.

Ont in a certain Western fort. some
time ago. the major conceived the idea
that artillery might be used effectively
III lighting with tie Indians bv dispens-
ing with gun carriages and fastening the
cannon uDon the backs OF mules. So he
explained his views to the command
ant, aud it was determined to try tho
experiment. A howitzer was selected
and strapped upon an ambulance mu.e.
with he lnuzz,c pointed toward the tail.
When they had secured the gun, and
loaded it with bail cartridge, ihev led
that calm and stcadfast mule out ON the
bun aud set up target In the middle
ot the river to practice at The rear Of
the mule was turned toward the target,
and he was backed gently up to the
edge oi he bluff. The Officers stood
around In scmIcIrcle, wlillc lh major
went up and Inserted time lu,e IN
the touch-hole ol the howitzer. When
the fuse WAS ready, the nljJr liz it. and
retired.
Ia "A minute or two the hitherto un-
ruttl at mule heard the fizzing back there
on MS neck, and it made hun uneasy.
lie reached his head around 10 ascertain
what was going on, and as he did 50,
his body turned, and the howifzer he
gan 10 sweep around the horizon. TIE
mule ~ last became excited, aud his cu
riosIty grew more aud more intense,
and III second or two he was standing
with his four legs in bunch, making
six revolutions minute and the howit
zer, unders and, threatening sudden
death to every man within half mile.
The commandant was observed 10 climb
suddenly up tree {; the lieutcnants were
seen sliding over the bluff into the river.
as II they didn't care at all about the
high price OF uniforms; the adiutant
made good time towards the tort; the
sergeant began to throw up brea.twolks
with his bayomet, and the major rolled
over the ground and groaned. In two
or three minutes there was a puff Of
smoke, dull tnud, and the mule.-
where was he? A solitary jackass might
have been seen turning successive back
soinersets over the bluff, only to rest at
anchor, finally, with his howitzer, at
the bottom OF the river, while the bail
went off toward the fort, hit the chimney
in the majors quarters. ratified the adobe
bricks down into the parlor, and fright
ened the major wife into commissions.
They do not allude to il now, and no re-
port OF the results of the experiment was
ever sent to the War Department.

The Saco Independent reports the fol-
lowing .fshy case decided in the S. j.
Court last Friday: Richard S. CaswelI
vs.. Phineas F. Johnson. Defendant sold
to plaintiff the stock, fixtures and good
will Of his fish market in Biddeford. and
gave bond that he would not engage IN
the fsh business in Biddeford. This ac-
ton is brought for breach OF the bond .
inasmuch as Johnson hat again engaged
in the fsh business by opening an oyster
saloon. To this defendant replied that
an oyster was not fish, aud therefore he
had not broken his bond. This present.
ca the question, is the oyster fish?
This issue was referred to the full court.
aud the answer came back, an oyster il
a fis1. The case came up Tor assessment
OF damages. Alter hearing the evidence
the presiding Judge fixed the damage
on the bond at $50.

The RED RIVER RaFr.-Haviny heard
oil tie great latt' in the Red River.
since our geography davs. we are all ant
to suppose We know all about il. We
are well aware that it is a mass of drift
wood. completely obstructiny NAVIGATION
at The point where it covers the water
with ITS countless trunks OF forest trees.
we Know that the river passes under
this mass a. il it were bridge; and we
NAV remember that in 1888, when the
rait was one hundred and twenty-four
miles long. the general government be-
gan the work OF removing ii. but atirr
working at it for TWENTY-FIVE wears
abandoned the at ernpt - irnpracticaDle.
and confined its efforts to tile OPENING
up OF some ot the lateral channels Or
bavous. We may know all this. bnr
still be Ignorant of one Of the most CT.
rious characteri,tics of the great raft.
which IS that it, unlike RATS in general
moves up the river against the current
instead OF down. The movement i,
very slow. being but a mile or two in
year. The explanation of thi, reiro-
grade movement OF an apparently sia-
uonary mass is simple enough. The
logs ol the lower end OF the raft are
continually broken away and carried
of bv the floods and ireshels. Thu. tho
raft always falling away at one end and
growing at the other. gradually moves
up the river, and it is calculated that il
has moved since forming about four
hundred miles. Scientific writers have
suggested the idea hat this vast mass OF
timber. after living in the old bed of the
river for quite number of ages, will
come "A coal bed. But when the Red
River country becomes thicklv settled.
this enormous collection of drift wood
may be utilized in some way or other.
and thus intellectually distant genera
tions may be cheated out of many
