General Hancock issued yesterday
his first general orders as commander

beloved by the army and volunteers

show itself in Yorktown or the camp,
it is probable that no one could put
things to rights with better chance
for tho sympathy of all persons here"
During the past,year the general has
done nothing whatever to restore con-

acter generally. He simply continues
to be what he was before ribald or

From bournes of Natures pastoral silence

Below the nights pure orbs, the winds faint

What wilful spell I question of my thought.

By what perverse doom are they lead to meet
This fiery ruin, when SO calm and cool
The deep grass drowses at the elms' dim feet,
The moist leaves droop above the atarlit po oil

With dark wild imagerles OF mans misdeeds
And then. like some full rustic of sudden wings,
A long breeze floats disconsolatey past.
And steals from unseen foliage that it swings

While the sad pulses Of each gradual tone

HUNTING ALLIGATORs IN FLORIDA.
Jacksonville Cor. Savannah News.l


Parties are hunting the gators way
down on the Caloosahatchie and kfssim-
mice rivers, and upon the numerous
lakes in that region. Nothing is used
except the skins upon the belly and
legs, the rough, scaly plates upon the
backs of the animal being rejected. The
heads are cut off and buried for few
days until the tusks can be detached.
1t was announced some days since that
one person had collected alligator teeth
to the amount OF three hundred and
fifty pounds. This fact alone will give
some idea OF the destruction now going
on among these creatures. On the st.
Johns river new method has been
devised for the successful pursuit of this
game. A dark lantern with powerful
reflector is used on suitable nights, and
no difficulty is experienced IN approach.

be perfectly bewIldered by the strong
glare, and make no effort to escape.
The gun is hold within few feet OF the
head, touch to the trigger, and there
is q gator less in Florida. This new

are enabled to kill and to secure their
prey. 1t IS sad to reflect that the race
OF the saurians is IN danger Of being
extlrpated. Thousands are slain annu-
ally by tourists and others for amuse-
ment merely, in addition to those
slaughtered for profit.
Thousands OF baby gators are stuffed
as specimens or sent off as curiositles,
while myriads of eggs are blown and
disposed of BY dealers. Amid all these
causes combined the brute seems in q
good way to become extinct. This ID
