x During slavery owned
one of the hlackest as well as mean
est negro men in South Arkansas.
He was known in the neighborhood
as Crow Sam. used thrash Sam
about twice a week. Steal ! he'd
steal from himself and then deny it.
Well, when the war came on he was
one Of the first to turn against me.
He went into the army and served
till the surrender. After peace was
made l moved over into an adjoin-
ing county and went to work, trying
to repair my broken fortune. One
day a negro that had working for
me knocked down one of my horses,
which so enraged me that [ struck
him several times with my cane. He
went away and returned with a con-
stable, who summoned me to appear
next day before magistrate. Off
GERS were not quite SO numerous theD
as now, and the magistrates office
was several miles away. Well, sir.
when got there who should see
on the bench but old Crow Sam. He
was fat and greasy and had on an
enormous pair of spectacles. When
everything bad been made ready
court was opened, and old Sam, CIV
ing me q searching look, remarked:
"Pears that I've seed you afore."
"Look here, SAM" l said, Il don't
like to be mixed up IN this way
Try to settle this affair without NAL
ice."
"De law is gwine TO hab its direck
course" said Sam. Things hab
kinder changed since we was in bus
mess together, but de principle of
de niger havn't revoluted. Dis
niger is as big a rascal as l used to
be, so Mars John Pll discharge you,

The Dog.

Detroit Free Press.I
This is a dog.
Do you see the dog?
He looks as natural as life.
The dog is called by some. mans
most faithful servant. One or two
instances, have been known where a
dog frightened away thief or bit
an agent. They have also been known
to bark at the Moon, and thus pre-
vent it falling and dashiug the earth
to pieces. If it wasn't for dogs we
shouldn't know what to do with our
old oyster cans. You can now ask
any questions you desire.
"How large is dogF
"Well, that depends. Ifhe's run
ming away from you he looks about
the size of gallon jug. but if he's
coming at you he looks as large as a
yearling calf
DO dogs guard the housei"
Yes; particularly the kitchen
door. Nothing hurts dogs feel
ings so much as to have his master
think he's waiting for bones, instead
Of being there on guard
Can a dog take hint?'
"Yes. AS soon as one sees far
mer coming across the fields with a
gun he knows that killing sheep is
over for that morning, and away he
goes
care dogs very strong?'
you'd think they could pull a
sawlog to Judge by the amount Of
bowling they will do between dusk
and daybreak, but the minute boy
wants a ride on his sled the dog is
troubled with heart disease and
general weakness" f--E
"Can dogs find their way from
long dIstances?"
Its according to the dog. If it's
one you want to get rid of he can
find his way back home from Cali
fornia. If it's good one he's apt
10 get lost if ne goes round the cor
ner."
Can dogs see in the dark?''
"Some appear to, but instances
are not rare where dogs, commanded
to rush out and deyouI the fellow
hooking wood, have rushed under
the bed by mistake-and stayed
there. That's all about dogs"

PHIL. SHERIDAN.

General Sheridan was about leaving
the Fifth Avenue Hotel yesterday after
noon when Star reporter caught him.
He wasn't in an interviewable humor,
but the reporter tackled him heroically
as follows:
What are the prospects of an Indian
war, Gencrall"
"Well, / suppose Sitting Bull will
make raid as soon as the grass gets
long enough to feed his ponies. He'll
make things lively while, because he's
had time enough to lie off and fatten up
his stock and men,"
What force do you think he will have1
THAT can't tell. If lie takes the
Sioux alone he'll turn out about 5000
warriors; if the Blackfeet and Utes join
HIM he'll be able to put about 5000 men
in the Geld. Then there's chance of the
Kiowas and Cheyennes-who are bran .
ches of the Sioux tribe-the Commanches
and Arrapahoes joining ID the fight.
That will put, propably, about 5000
warriors more. To meet this strong
force Of fighting Indians we can, by tur-
ming out every man that we can spare
from the frontier posts, muster about 1,
500 men-2,000 at the utmost-and a
great many of them are green recruits,
who don't know anything about Indian
warfare"
"Do you think, General, that the
Southern Indians-the Apaches, for
instance--are liable to break outl"
"Every Indian in the country is danger.
Gus. If we should enter upon general
war, say with lhe Northern tribes, such
as the Sioux, KiOwas, Cheyennes, Black
feet, ect., the Southern tribes would hear
of it inside of week or two, and we
would have the whole deyiiish crowd on
rampage"
What do you suppose is Sitting Bulls
idea in fighting us?'
He thinks the Americans are divided
up into small tribes, as the Sioux ar,
he has no idea what the white people
really are; he thinks he can whip US in
deatil, tribe after tlibe, and finally clean
US OUT
The General said that all the men at
Carlisle Barracks, Pa, had been ordered
to the front to join the cavalry regiments
now watching Sitting Bulls movements

frauds. by whichever party charged to have been
committed but the Democracy pursused its course
shamelessly and Telentlessy and sifed all inquiry
into attempts at bribery in Oregon, South Carolina
and Louisiana, and violence in several of the States
Neither amendment nor debate was allowed. Tho
memorable previous question applied and en-
forced.
This scheme, If puTsued-and it Is now fully inan-
guraed-can only have the effect of further paralyz
ing business of all kinds, preventing the restoration
of confidence, winch seemed promising casting
gloom over every household, and bringing our Ma
ton into reproach before the civilized world.
The peace of the country is the first consideration
of patriots. This new effort of the Democracy to IN
augurate anarchy and McXicauize the Government,
by throwing doubts upon the Legitimacy of the title
of the President is in keeping with the record OF
that party, one wing of which rebelled against the
Government. while the other wing gave them AID
and comfort.
We call therefore, upon all who opposed the re-
belliOn Of 1861, without distinction of party, to
rally again to the support Of law and order and
stable government, and to oyerwhelm with defeat
the reckless agitatoTs who, to gain political power,
would add to the present dstTeSSes of the cOuii-
try. by shaking the foundations of the Government
they failed in four years war TO destroy.

THE AWARD AT HALIFAX.
A MESSAGE BY PRESIDENT HAYES.


LETTER FORWARDED TO CONGRESS FROM sBcRE-
TAEY EyARIs-MPoRTAST SUGGESTIONS ABOUT
THE EXTRAORDINARY FISHERIES AWARD.
President Hayes sent brief message to the Sem
ate of the United States yesterday, incosing n long
letter from Secretary Evarts in relation TO paying
the Halifax award. Mr.. Evarts reviews the whole
matter of that award. and the manner in which 10
was rendered. He shows that the American Com
missioner protested against the verdict and that the
opinion in Canada and England had been,
previous to the declaration of the award, that
the verdict should be unanimous He SHOWS
further that the award exceeded the statement
of damages set forth in the ease, and that it was
therefore excessive. He recommends that this
Government confer with the Government of Great
Britain in reference to the principles involved in
the matter, in order that there may be permanent
settlement of the questions in dispute An appro-
priation for the payment of the award is advised.
The message and the letter areagven below. having
been telegraphed specially to TIE TRIBUNE.
