A QUEER DISCOVERY MYSTERIOUS
BULLET.-A correspondent of the Toledo
Blade, writing from Hastings, Mich.
says: about ten miles South of this
place, farmer, while driving some
COWS through deep forest adjoining his
fields, unexpectedly came upon an
unusually large buck stretched upon the
ground, and moaning away the Inst
moments of its existence. The ami
NAL was evidently very old. and in
u sadly emaciated condition, 30 the
fact that the farmer Immediately put
bullet through its head should rather
be looked upon as an net of compass
sion than otherwise. Just as he was
about to leave, he observed q round
lump upon the animals side, which so
attracted his attention that he stopped to
examine it. Quickly discovering that
close under the skin was deposited a
round. hard body, he used his knife,
and brought to light silver bullet such
rs was used in olden times for the en-
closure of secret dispatches. He car
ried this curiosity to his house,
where, after considerable trouble, he
succeeded in opening it, and found
to- his great surprise TINT it con-
tanned message written in cypher
upon paper attenuated to high degree.
Otherwise than that the paper was
slightly dlscolored (not sufficiently,
however, to obliterate the characters.
Neither the bullet nor what it enclosed
bore any evidence Of its late surround
inga or Of the strange vicissitudee
through which it might previously have
gone. Several men of science have care
fully inspected this relic of the post, and
are as much at loss to decipher the
message as they are to satisfactorily ex-
plain when and how the bullet came to
be lodged in the side Of the buck"
