the faithful GRANTEES eagerly anticipate new
division Of Official pap, the hungry expectants
are getting ready for their periodical dive at
the post office pot in this city. No less than
six candidates are already IN the field, and four
wards to hear from.
ltstrikes us that these greedy expectants are
grossly mallgning our respected President in
this movement 1t is equivalent to saying
that when Mr.. Grant, in his message, an.
nounced his solemn purpose in making his
future appointments, to abide by the rules of

aud hypocritical; for according to these rules

moved, his principal clerk, or deputy, if COM
petent, shall have the place. In the latter
case unquestlonably Mr.. Meigs would be the
rightful successor, Us his fidelity and compe-
tency, no more than that of Mr.. Cameron, can
be questioned.

Fun at Pontiac,

Considerable excitement was recently stirred
up at Pontiac, because of "little game that
was successfully "played" on the business men
of that settlement by one Furzeman, an ex.
pententiary inmate, Who had served out his
time, and won such golden opinions from the
former radical managers thereof that after
graduating at Joliet, he was taken to Pontiac
and made assistant superintendent Of the Re
fern School, Furaeman had been sent to the
penitentiary for forgery but was put in charge
OF the financial matters at the Reform School,
thus showing the unbeunded confidence of the
board IN his honesty and their belief that his
propensity to write other peoples names had
been squelched out OF him. He was getting
to be zone OF the boys" and enjoyed "fine
swing" SO to speak. While all this was 90
ing on he Was preparing a surprise for them.
On Friday evening last, his plans being com.

went around TO the various places and settled
up small accounts due from himself personally
or the Reform School, giving in exchange

The Wild Turkey in California.

1t Is not little remarkable that the wild
turkey, pre-eminently the king of edible birds,
has never been found west of the Rocky Noun
tains. This is of course not or account of eli
mate, for the wild turkey is found in every
zone east OF the mountains, from Central
| America TO the northern borders Of Canada.
That so desirable bird should become deni-
zen of the golden state was therefore an OBJ
Ject OF no small Interest and anxiety to its citi-
zens. But how to get it there was the prob
lem. It's eggs. it is well understood, will bear
no transportation and the bird itself is cx-
ceedingly tender and must be handled with
great care. Yet by the following, which We
find in the San Francisco Cali of the lst inst,
it appears that the difficulties in the way have
been surmounted by Judge Cation, of this city,
and that he has, from his we'll stocked park
at Ottawa, generously supplied the California
people with half dozen pairs of the "nobe
bird'-a beginning from which there is little
doubt the western slope, within less than the
brief space of human generation, will yet be
supplied with an abundance of this splendid
game. Should these birds live and thrive,
and multiply as there is reason to hope in
climate so apparently favorable, not only the
people of California, bu. Of all the immense
region west of the great backbone Of the con-
tinent," will have cause to bear the name Of
John Dean Cation in grateful remembrance for
ages to come.
The following is the article alluded to, from
the Sen Francisco Daily CALL:
A NOTABLE ADDITION TO THE GAME BIRDS OF
THIS COAST.
A very important addition to the game birds
Of this coast Is likely to be made ere long
James Gamble has just received II turkeys
from j. D. Caton-the first that have ever been
brought to this state. They will be on exhi
bition at Liddle & Karding's for day or two
and will then be placed in pairs at different
point in Tulare, Marin and Alameda counties
for the purpose of ultimately stocking those
localities, and from them, others with wild
turkey. In the meantime it IS hoped that
whoever may come across them will leave
them unframed until they shall have had time
to propagate. Judge Cation, the gentleman
from whom the birds were received, has at his
country residence in Ottawa, Ill., large park,
stocked with almost every variety OF game to
be found in the United States, and takes q
most commendable pleasure IN distributing
them for the qualification of sportsmen. he
has bred large number of wild turkeys, and
says that cross between the wild and tame
turkey produce finer bird than either parent,
and SO strongly does the wild blood preserve
It's peculiar characteristics, that bird of only
one-eighth wild blood cannot be distinguished
from one of full wild blood, except by experts.
Contrary to general suppositlon, the wild birds
can be domesticated and the offspring, under
careful management, becomes quite tame.
