The New York Herald says there are
two kinds of army circles. One kind
takes in the warm lobby Of a Washing
ton hotel, precise to a button, and anx-
ious as to a frown on the fringe of a
mock turtle soup, while its members
hold their fingers over a register heater,
and the other kind fights cold Indians
and is far away from home, Washing
ton and lobby.

Some One Always Wins.

A correspondent invites attention to
the fact that it has been everywhere
remarked by the readers of tae leading
journals in all parts of the country that
the drawings of the Louisiana State
Lottery Company, which occur without
ever any interruption in their regularity
on the second Tuesday of each month at
New Orleans, La, and any assertions
made over the name Of NJ. A. Dauphin,
New Orleans, La, or same person at
No. $40, broadway, New York City,
are invariably justified by the subse-
quent action Of the Company, SO about
$500 600 seems to be a certain happiness
in store for some happy mortal some
where.
