of case the other day which proves that
there are noble exceptions to the average ''boy

principal examiners IN the Patent Office at
Washington, went to pass his school vacation
at an uncles in Kentucky, near the Ohio
River. There was but one restriction on the
scope Of the boys amusements. Horses, dogs,
rifles. she: guus, &C., &C., we're freely allow

his cousins were. ss fond of the water as SO

boat which the cousins wcIe wont to use in
their aquatic excursions He promised faItL-

''good tines he enjoyed; among the very
last, one in which the cousins had desired to
visit the Ohio shore ''They went over in the

STORY OF GOLD AND GRATITUDF


Of the many strange private histories made
oy the late war, An occasional account Of
buried treasure inevitably forms q most inter.
esting chapter. The Memphis Register tells
how citizen of that place became possessed
of $1,000 in gold.
When the war between the States broke
out, there lived in Memphis certain young
mechanic who volunteered his servics, % =
soldier in the Confederate cause Just before
receiving marching orders he fell he,r 10 81 500
which he received in English gold. and bmisd
$1,000 OF the same beneath the roots OF. Z The
on certain lot in the city. The SAID lot be>
longe1 to friend of the young man, whose
family had kindly nursed him during pro-
tracted illness, and for whom he fel, a decp
sense of gratitude. 1t chanced that the said
soldier became tired of his unre9uited life.
and, despairlng of the cause which he deem.
ed ''lost" before many of his fellow soldiers
came to the conclusion, he left his comsades
without the usual preliminary Of an honorable
discharge and passed beyond the boundary
Of the Confederate States into Mexico.
In due course of time he sailed for Eng
land. and there shipped as sailor on u,er-
chant vessel After various adventures
around the world, he was at length taken
very i'll recently while sailing IN the Mediter.
ranean. and, before meeting with his ap~
preaching death, summoned to the side of his
hammock the master of the vessel, revealed
to him the above stated facts, and desired him
to write q will. in which he bequeatlied to the
friend in Memphis who had Eursed him in his
sickness his buried treasure. This was &C,
cordinglv done, and the will duly signed and
witnessed.
The master of the vessel faithfully carried
out the dying request of the deceased soldier
| and sailor, and communicated the facts with
the will to the Memphis legatee, who received
the same. But he had sometime before sold
| and delivered to another party the lot on
| which the valuable sovereigns were deposited.
How to get at it now without incurring OPP
position nnd Pr,fal's iitig~tuu was the ques>
ton which arose in his mind,
After taking the advice nf counsel, he con-
! cluded to develop the whole matter to pur-
chaser ana owner of the place, and ask for
| the right to make search. This ives done, ard
the new proprietor generously forwarded his
wishes, and gave him every facility to pos,
sess himself of the treasure.
On digging at the foot of the tree described
| in the will. the gold. amounting to seven
| thousand dollars, was happily found, and the
new owner made glad by the gllttering heap.
| Thus did the ''bread cast on the waters return
after many years And thus is truth proven
to he stronger than fiction" This remark.

! LAWYER of this city. It furnishes abundant

An Anatomical llla Hint.

DR.. Hermann Myer ofzurich asserts that
a shoemaker. ought not only to produce
shoe that does not pinch, but a shoe so
constructed that it will give to a foot dis
torted by the pinching it has borne already,
a fair chance ofa return to its right shape,
and full possession ofits power as q means
of carrying the body onward. He says
that, IN measuring foot for shoe or q
boot, the frst thing to be considered Is the
place Of the big toe. Upon this toe. IN
walking, the weight of the whole body
turns at every step; in natural foot there
fore it is in straight line with The heel.

point of the toe to the middle orthe roo

From one subject ofidebatei to another
with tie restlessness and activity Of a flea
Last week it was money, moSey, money;
next, the Centennial Celebration and the
Fourth Of July. To-day Mr.. Carpenter
80 far triumPhed over the impatient Cam
eron as to have the Louisiana usurpatioa
brought before the Senate he spoke on
this subject at length With the ease and
logical power which mark al his efforts
in the Senate, and with perfect knowl-
edge Of the subject. Mr.. Carpenter was
essentially successful in YindicatlD9 the
power Of Congress to lntsrfere TO set aside
the usyrpatioR set up by Durell'a de-
ereee-quoting the Constitution upon the
guarantee clause. showing from Mr.. Cal
houn's work on Government that this was
especially a case in point, BE was. re-
peatedly interrupted here by Mr.. Ferry o.
Connecticut. and others, but the result was
to demonstrate the strength of his posi-.
ton. % -f-2 r-4s =, -'-.--
Passing from this point to the reasons
why Congress should intervene, Mr.. Car
penter replied to Mr.. Morton's prophecy
Of bloodshed, and insisted that It would
be fraught with danger to let this contest
go into the Presidential election of 1876.
The Senate and galleries listened with the
utmost attention. So far, the, strength ol
the debate has been all one way. The
speeches Of Judge Arthur and Brown in
the House, and Of Carpenter and Nc
Creery in the Senate, leave but little tc
be said. g One of the chief difficulties in
the way of securing relief; beside The
maliguity of q portion Of the Radicals, is
the presence IN Congress of a set Of Bour-
Bon and hair splitting Democrats who,
prefer to cavil and hold back instead ol
granting the only practical mode Of reliei
open to this unfortunate State The
greatest legislative achievement of these
gentry is the same as that Of Dickens cir
