A Centennial Horse

Some OF the boys who run trains on
tia" l.. +. & l.. Ry are fond of Joking.
and don't miss many opportunities of
playing the same upon their compan-
ions They IN fishing, and last season
visited the ST. Mary's reservoir pretty
often, and enjoyed many pleasant hours
IN piscatorial exercises. They used to
hire horse to haul them up the canal
to the reservoir, but this season con-
eluded they would go it upon more
economical basis, and instead of hiring
motive power would furnish their own.
They looked around and discoy cred an
old white steed that wonld have riyaled
Saneho Panza's famous charger, and as a
AX aud a ' would buy him, they in
vested. SO far so well. The horse was
bought and stabbed, but an individual.
who had been subject of their Jokes.
looked on and smiled as lie marked the
hills and valleys on tie beasts sides.
One morning last week there was con-
sternation in that stable in st. Marys.
when the "boys" wanted to 90 10 the
reservoir. Rosinante had disappeared,
and in his place stood a queer compound.
In color he was whitehall was the
base, and reached back of the shoulders
to where the first rib was prominent,
and there n streak of red boldly defined,
marked the contour Of the rib, and next
it, in the valley was streak of white.
then CAME streak of azure, and then
red, white and blue in alienation, un-
til the hill and valleys disappeared at
the hips. On the side of this strange.
Zebratic creature the word centennial
stood out in bold relief. The colors
were indellible, and made confusion
worse confounded. II they had ''washed
out, " the ''boyG" might have recovered
their steed, but they would not wash,n
and the consequence was a state of dis
quietude rs to whether they had some
body else's horse, or somebody else had
theirs. And now it is only necessary to
ask one Of those boys ''How is your
horse" or whisper in his ears the simple
word Centennial, in order to obtain a
history OF the transaction that entirely
eXculpates the narrator. The joke is
always on one of the other boys.

Fine Quarry,

We notice that Mr.. Corwin, adjoining
the Starr farm, one mile this side of Ca
rey, has opened very fine quarry of
building stone. which is pronounced by
those who have examined it, to be
not n whit inferior to the Berea stone.
1t appears to be almost inexhaustible,
easy of access, splits readily in any d.
direction, and when exposed to the air
hardens and becomes almost white. 1t
is certainly the finest building stone yet
discovered i'm this past of the State.

To the senate and House Of Representatives.

To the senate and House Of Representatives
] transmit herewith a telegram of
the fifth OF August from Lieutenant General
Sheridan to General Sherman, a letter OF the
18th OF the present month from General Sher-
man to the secretary of war, and letter from
the latter OF the same date TO me- all setting
forth the probable needs of the army in CON
sequence OF the existing h0stilities. ! would
strongly urge upon congress the necessity OF
making some provision for q c0nting, +
which may arise during the vacation, n
more troops in the Indian country than il is
now possible to send 1t would seem TO me
to be much more economical and better to au-
thorize an increase OF the present cavalry
force by $500 priyates, but il that is not
deemed advisable, then that the President be
authorized to call out not exceeding five regi-
ments, one thousand strong each, OF volun-
teers, to serve for period not exceeding six
months. Should this latter authority be
given, would not order out any volunteers
unless in my opinion, based upon reports
from the scene OF war, deemed il absolutely
necessary, and then only the smallest mum.
Der considered sufficient TO meet the emcr-
gency.

Tho Chicago Wheat Market.

The State of Illinois has assumed not
only TO inspect the grain which passes through
Chicago, but to sit in judgment upon il in
such way as 10 largely determine the price
at which that grain shall be sold. II declares,
through its appointed officers, that parcel
ofwheat shall be classed or graded as reject
ed when in the opinion oil its owner it is good
enough for No. 8, which sells at II cents per
bushel more than rejected. In like manner
it declares that given parcel OF corn is No.
2, when in the opinion of the buyer that corn
is no better than rejected. And these de-
cisions are made not only on the property OF
the citizens of that State, but on grain owned
by parties in Minnesota, in Massachusetts,, in
New York, England or France. II is true
that the State Government has provided for
an appeal from the decision of its immediate
swants; but this very plan for appeal is
3pen TO the same radical ohiecton-that he
State has no business to interfere in the mat
ter, except when itself appealed to by either
the buyer or the seller of the property against
attempted wrong by the other party. Any
thing beyond this is a species Of paternal in
reference which less enlightened people
would characterize as despotism.
