Capt. 4. D. Gregory, Of our town,
sent two pups, Of his strain Of fine i'm
ported stock of dogs, to Mr.. r. Il. Bar
row, Houma, La, 1t appears that Mr..
Barrow simultaneously, by chance, sent
four young alligators to Capt. &. The
amphibous reptiles came by express last
Saturday, and seemed to be in vigorous
health, and will, we are sure, thrive
and be happy under the management OF
Capt. G., who has magnificent grounds
for a geological garden, if necessary.
For the present he will not put them in
his pond, but cultivate them in large
casks ofwatcr tempered to a proper de-
gree, 50 that they will scarcely feel
aggrieved over their transfer from the
bayous and swamps Of Louisiana to this
colder region. Besides, they will be
abundant!y fed, as Capt. Gregory will
have but little trouble in procuring
minnows, flies, beef, dog meat, chicken,
or anything else, for their sustenancc.
The alligator is really a crocodile, or,
vice versa. There is no difference in
the shape or habits of either. Whether
the propagation Of them in this section
will prove lucrative we will not now
discuss. They are not very handsome
to look at, but are splendid tly-traps,
and We hope Capt. Gregory may sue
coed in making them useful if not orna-
mental.

to inform them that We highly appre-
ciated their kindness toward us during
our troubles. And, have this to say,
that during citizenship Of thirteen

treated by any one. We can safely say
that our misfortune was not caused by
any prejudice or party spirit l feel
that any Northern man is as safe in
Tennessee as is the native-born Tennes-
