Arctic Of the war.
New Orleans Picayuns.


4 a few days ago, as the employees Of
the Jackson sawmill at the head of
Poland street, were running sawlogs
through the mill, cutting telegraph
poles, the circular saw came in contact
with something a good deal harder
than wood, causing a great noise. The
saw ran through and when the plank
dropped off q black object was seen
imbedded in the WOOD. One of the
men took an axe and struck it blow,
under the impression that it was an
iron spike, but the axe glanced of, and
on examination it was found to be
an iron shell. The shell was pried
out and found to be an eight inch
spherical, with the percussion cap
still in the anvil. The relic was
placed in the Office Of the saw mill,
Where quite a number Of persons have
examined it. No visible mark on the
exterior Of tho tree, which was about
forty inches in diameter, could be
seen, end the bark and about eight
INCHES Of wood had grown over the
iron. The log came in . raft from
Red river, and the shell had doubtless
been projected into the swamps Dor.
dering the river during the war, from
some Federal gpnboat either ascend
ing or descending the river. After
becoming imbedded in the tree it re.
manned there, and the bark and wood
finally grew oyer the missile, conceal.
ing it from view, and ACCIDENT finally
disclosed its lodging place.
