The sparrows have not driven the
squirrels out Of Court square. They
are still masters of the tree-tops,
though fewer in numbers than their
feathered and noisy neighbors. A
paragraph going about up north stat
ing the squirrels have abandoned the
square is erroneous.
Several German emigrants after
coming all the way from the old coun-
try at the expense of others, under an
agreement to work out their passage
after reaching their destination, quit
the party here the other day as they
passed through this city. 1t is likely
there will be a remedy for the losers
in such cases.
Sol. Coleman, with his usual char
acteristic enterprise, has invented an
admirably arranged chest in which to
keep imported cigars in the same con
dition as hat in which they left
Cuba. This chest or box is about
FIVE feet long, -four feet wide, and
three feet deep. 1t is lined with
zinc, has thin iron perforated shelves,
and about two inches Of fresh water
is constantly kept on the floor of the
box, the water being changed every
morning by means of a small hose
and faucets. The lid is raised by
weigats, but is generally kept closed
so as to exclude the air. This whole
arrangement is perfect in all its details,
and is a grand success in faithfully
accomplishing the objects for which
it was designed. 1t is known to all
smokers of Havana cigars, that those
cigars lose their peculiar favor and
delicacy of taste when allowed to be-
come dry, and, furthermore, if stored
10 large common wooden boxes, as
customary in this country, they have
a perceptible taste ofthe wood, which
compose those boxes. Now, Sol Cole
man, by his newly invented chest,
keeps his imported cigars not only
moist, but also fragrant with the
original flavor and with not the
slightest taste or smell Of wood, as the
chest is lined throughout With zinc.
There is no similar chest in the United
States, and it speaks well for the en-
terprise as well as ingenuity of Mr.
Coleman, that he should supply our
citizens with all the choice brands Of
cigars from the lever faithful isle" at
the usual eastern rates, after stor-
ing them in such a manner
as to preserve hat peculiar
flavor and aroma that has given them
a world wide reputation. Among his
soecialties of Havana cigars stand
first the SalomOnes brand, which he
sells at sixty-five cents each. This is
the finest cigar made in the world,
and is the brand smoked by the Car
of Russia. The Henry Clay brand is
Of several grades, being from 12l to %
cents each Escepeions, Villas, Cos
mopolitans, Murias, Industries, and a
number of other leading brands COM
prise his stock of Havana cigars, and
are such in variety and excellence as
to compare favorably with that Of any
other dealer in the south. The pub.
lie generally are invited to inspect his
plan of keeping irst-class goods in a
tirst-class style.

We learn from Mr.. John Kilkenny,
general travelling passenger agent Of
the Louisville & Nashville railroad,
that through tickets to Chicago and
return, via Louisville, Indianapolis,
and Kokomo, will be sold in this city
for $l2, to be good for fifteen days from

gust. All persons taking advantage of
this exceedingly low rate must leave
on that day. Many persons desire to
visit Chicago during the conclave of

fer to go by Louisville. This arrang-
ment gives them the option of that

which Chicago can be reached.

OSCEOLA.
An Unfortunate Shooting ARRAY.

From the officers of the Osceola
Belle, we learn Of a difficulty which
occurred in the town of Osceola, Ark,
yesterday morning between several of
its best citizens. 1t seems that Sher-
if w. B. Haskins and Geo. w.
Thomson a leading lawyer of the
place had some dispute the night be-
fore, about the issuing Of subpenas,
during which Haskins called Thorn
ason a liar and a little scufle ensued.
Next morning Thomson clme down
from his house with his shotgun.
He was halted by Bob Dean, a deputy
sheriff, who took the gun away from
him, when a struggle ensued On the
platform Of Burlington & Co.'s store,
during %=h;eh time a pistol shot was
fred by Haskins, but, as far as we can
learn, did no damage. During the
melee Bard Burlington, who is a part
ner Of Thomson, and others, came ur
with their little pistols and for a time
it looked like war was imminent. A
good many were ready to take part
but better judgment prevailed. Has
kins was arrested and hostilities sus-
pended. Haskins is a candidate fol
re election and Thomson is bitterly
opposed to him. This, probably, was
the real cause of the unfortunate diff
fculty.

More from DronmInnd.

To he Editor Of The National Republican.
SIR "A Veterans Dream" in your recent
issue seems to have been Of n contagious sort,
at least among brother veterans. / can imag-
inc, therefore, shat your waste-baskct will
soon contain manuscript enough TO furnish
material for the compilation Of political
Pilgrims Progress.
According 10 the philosophy Of sleep, if any
irritation should throw the perceptive cere-
bral organs into n state Of action, while the
reflective ones sleep wo have consciousness
of objects, colOTs or sounds being presented
to us, just as II the former organs were ac-
tually stimulated by having such impressions
communicated to them by the external senses.
The following musin. was the cause Of my
irritation aud resulting dream.
In that interval of wakefulness which comes
10 every one between retiring to his couch
and the gradual lapse into dreamand, my
thoughts went back TO the time when the
party which has just taken up q union gou-
cral as a mask 10 hide the grinning skeleton
their past history has left them us au "old-
mun-of-the-sea" kind OF legacy took posses
sion of the popular branch of congress. No
sooner did this s0i diSdih reforming party take
possession OF the house than it began the most
wholesale esweepingchauges ofoffcials, from tho
highest 10 the humblest employees Of tha thOuse,
that has been known in American or foreign
history. Sixty-seveu eI.union soldiers, who
were faithful and competent in doing their
duties, were turned out-one.legged one
armed aud manned included-and among those
who filled their places were forty.seven ex-
rebel soldiers, so boorish and incompetent some
Of them as to draw upon congress the ridicule
of the whole country aud call for their dis
placement Sleep came.
In my dream I behed the melancholy
spectacle of Il nations ingratitude under
democratic party rule. 1t was the many
limbess, armless, manned aud war-wrecked
but faithful and competent veterans employed
in all the departments, formed in procession,
fearless, proud aud defiant, yet with heads
bowed down in shame and humiliation, to pass
in their last review before commander once
honored and loved to the verge of alteration,
while he, powerless in the hands Of the dis
loyal who had elevated him only that they
might regain power, would have 10 remain
passive and hear the iees of the disoya and
the music of Over the Hills to the Poor
house." US battle SCARED veterans passed by.
The rebel yolls Of exultation were so loud and
demoniacal at this juncture that the dreamor's
cerebral organs, perceptiVe and reflective, were
aroused In state of normal action again, aud
lie became more convinced than ever that the
loyal American people will never allow these
"images Of the mind" TO be realized, but will,
through their duly elected agents, Messrs.
Garfield and Arthur, ellectually dispe all such
hallucinations. w. S. Q.
