MIR. Crane contributed IS towards the ex-
penSes OF the mass meeting, and said that he did
not desire to be bothered by solicitors. He urged
that the funds should be collected at once, and
not wait until the meeting was held; for, judg-
ing by the past, they would find it difficult then
to collect funds. He had been once caught for
$50 at Lincoln Hall meeting, where the money
had not Dppn DThyiOlSIy collected q had
received another lesson. He was present at a
meeting at the National Hotel where twelve
millions OF dollars were represented, and one
man said they could raise 100000 for expenses
and he was authorized to employ counsel. Mr..
Riddle was engaged for $1,000 as also another
party, but after they had done their work the
money was not forthcoming, and he had to go
out on the street. All he could raise was $500,
which was paid MI. Riddle.
Major Richards followed with a contribution
OF S., and others responded in smaller sums.
Messis. George Fl. Holmes, Joseph Williams and
Andrew Gleason were appointed committee to
collect funds.

A BIG MErEoR.-About 12 o'clock on
the night of June 30, meteor AS large
as barrel, starting from the zenith,
plunged down the Northeastern sky and
exploded near Macon, Ga, with report
that reverberated for thirty seconds end
shook the earth for miles around. The
meteor was about FIVE seconds in falling,
during which time the city was lit up as
though by q powerful electric light.
Much excitement prevailed in the negro
quarters; the inhabitants rushed into
their doors, filling The mir with screams and
prayers. The time between the disap.
pearance ofthe phenomenon and tile re-
port was about three minutes; this would
make the distance from Macon about for.
ty miles.

In their talk the boys display broad
Southern accent, and they can put away
enough corn bread and milk for two or
three ordinary men. While young a
number of physicians essayed cure, but
beyond putting the children in misery
nothing was ever accomplished. The
scales with which they are covered can
not be removed at some seasons of the
year without drawing blood, but now the
time is coming when they will renounce
the old covering, and for many months
will remain in tender condition, await
ing the growth of new one.
Their uncle relates an amusing incl
dent Of how he pursued and found the
man who had been exhibiting them
about the country. He had been dcpu-
tised by his brother to hunt them up, at
last succeeding in tracing them to this
city. Walking in he took his stand
among the audience, and found the OBJ.

about the boys, claiming that they could
live under water as we'll as out of it, and
giving high flown account of their cap.
ture in the wids of Kentucky, where they
had lived all their lives mid the trees.
The astonishment of the fluent talker
may we'll be surmised, when, recognizing
their relative, the little fellows jumped
from their perch on the stage and made
dart for his arms. Since that time the
boys have been at home, and it was the
announced intention of those now with
them to take them back there. The
little fellows seem to be tired of the
monotonous days they have to spend in
undress, although a cold is thing un:
known to either of them. The tops of
their heads have not escaped the general
"scale,"' although the effect is not visible
upon the growth of their hair, which is
kept clipped close to their craniums.
George is possessed of good sense of the
humorous: and one of his accomplish
ments in that line was scare which he
administered to diminutive darkey a
short time ago, which made that indi.
vidual turn almost white. The latter
had begun to plague Master George,
when he announced in solemn tone that
he was about to bite him, and that every
body he ever bit died in about ten min.
utes. While the little African; ran
screeching from the place George gave
his brother>a punch in the ribs, aud then
rolled over for a good laugh. During
the coming week the boys will be taken
to one of the medical colleges of the city
for examination, and, if such thing as
u cure is possible, steps will be inaugu-
rated for their relief.

An Interesting Letter from Judge
Black to Gen. Hancock

When Gen. Hancock's Order Number
40 was made public, the Hon. Jeremiah
S. Black wrote him the snbioined letter:
WAsH1NGToN, Nov. 80, 1867.
MY DEAR GENERAL; This moment l
read your admirable order. I am much
engaged, but cannot resist the tempta-
ton to steal time enough from my
clients to tell you how grateful you have
made me by your patriotic and noble be-
havior.
Yours is the first most distinct and most
emphatic recognition which the princi-
pie of American liberty has received at
the hands of any high officer in a South.
ern command. 1t has the very ring of
the Revolutionary metal. Washington
never said thing in better taste or bet
ter time. 1t will prove to all men that
"Peace hath her victories not less than
those of war" l congratulate you, not
because it will make you the most popn-
lar man in America, for I dare say you
care nothing about that, but because
it will give you through all time the
solid reputation of true patriot and a
sincere lover of your country, its laws,
and its COVER ment. This, added to
your brilliant achievements as soldier,
will leave you without rival in the af.
fections of all whose good will is Worth
having, and give you place in history
which your children will be proud of.
This acknowledgement from me does
not amount to much, but I am express
ing only the feelings of millions and ex-
pressing them feebly at that. With pro-
found respect, yours, &C.,

scientific, systematic farmers. Then our
countrymen will no longer be slow to
acknowledge the agriculturist, the horti-
culturist and. the farmer as the peer Of
his citizens, and we shall then
learn that ours is not only the safest but
also the most delightful of callings,
giving vigor to manhood, physical and
mental symmetry; giving leisure and
pleasure more than most indoor profes-
sions. Did I say leisure? Yes; for six
hours of daily labor judiciously and
Systematically applied is sufficient for
providing both food and raiment, two
for the dietetic department, eight for
sleep and there is yet eight hours of the
twenty.four daily left for recreation and
mental improvement. Envy not, then,
those who, with throbbing brain, by the
midnight lamp, must turn the ledger in
search Of precarious gain; but go to your
chosen vocation With cheer. feeling that
it gives you superior opportunities for
useful. observation, whereby you may
constantly increase knowledge and daily
add to your pleasures, for it brings you
into close communion with Natures God,
where you may bask in the sunshine of
His presence and constantly behold His
6nger.prints in all his handiwork, know
ing that while you are in obedience to
His command to "Go till the earth," you
also have the abiding promise that "seed
time and harvest shall not fail" Then,
with Diligence as q motto, Science as
way bill, Prudence, Patience and Perse-
verance as travelling companions, make
haste to get on the car of Discreetness at
the station Of Vigilance, and run on the
line of Integrity, and it will soon lead
you through the village of Thrift to the
town of: Prosperity; which is next door
to the city of Independence, wherein
stands the great hall of Contentment.
