VALUABLE RELICS.
Two Orders Bearing General Grants Auto
graph, Written Before Ticksburg.

Mr.. John B. Eckman, of the Woodburn Sarven-
wheel Company, is the possessor of the originals
of two brief orders issued by General Grant in
1868, when he was in command of the Depart
ment Of the Tennessee. The papers are in an
excellent state of preservation every word being
distinct, and the documents showing but few
evidences of their age The handwriting, while
not SO heavy as that Of later and more recent
samples of the Generals penmanship, shows
those peculiarities which make it easily recog-
nizable as the Generals work. The oldest of
these orders is written on sheet of large letter
paper, aud is as follows:
HEADQUARTERS DEPARTMENT OF THE2
TENNESSEE, VICKSBURG, Miss Aug 10, 1868. 5
"Leutenant Bryan:
"Sir-Permit Mrs. Blake to have from the
fields corn sufficient for her family and stock to
be gathered from time to time as required, and
at the proper time to lay in winters supply.
~. S. GRANT Major. general"
The second order is written on two pages of a
sheet of note paper 1t also treats of the wants
of Mrs. Blake, who appears to have been in need
of many things. The order is as follows:
HEADQUARTERS DEPARTM'T OF THE TENNESSEE,
VIcKsBURG, Miss, Oct. 8, 1868.
"Lieutenant Bryan, in Charge of Contrabands:
"Sir-Deliver to Mrs. Blake one good, service
able pair of mules from those in your posses
sion, in lieu of part Of those taken from her by
the United States troops.
"By previous instructions Mrs. Blake is to
have sufficient corn from her plantation to do her
family and remaining stock through the winter.
If she cannot have the corn gathered with her
own help, deliver it from that gathered by the
force at your command.
"Yours, ETC., U. S. GRANT, Major general.
up. S.-Permt Mrs. Blake to draw meal for
her family from the mill in your charge. or from
that ground for the use Of the people under your

MEYER LEIPSCHlTZS TROUBLES.
Arrested in Cincinnati for SwindIing q
Brother Hebrew Out Of Watch.

Meyer Leipschitz, for many years we'll
known Hebrew citizen Of Indianapolis has
recently been figuring rather conspicuously and
IN very unenvable light before the Cincinnati
police court. The Cincinnati Commercial Gazette
of Yesterday, in reviewing Leipschitzs troubles,
says:
Although a resident of the Hoosier capital,
Leipschitz frequently came to this city, and
while here sought to combine business with
pleasure. the latter usually consisting of game
of draw poker Leipscbitz frequently lost heavi-
ly, and to this fact his assignment of about six
months ago is due. While his failure was known
among business men, the friends he
had made during his pastime at cards were
not made aware of the fact, and some of them
have suffered financially accordingly. About
three weeks ago he went to Davis Adlers place
fan Elm street pawnbroker) and selected fine
gold watch and chain, giving in payment sight
draft for 500 on his business in indianapolis.
The paper was duly thrown into bank for colec-
ton, and in a few days, to Adlers astonishment.
was returned protested, LeipSchitz being re-
ported as worthless. What goes to prove that
the man was in desperate financial straits is the
fact that the watch scarcely warmed in his
pocket before it was in another pawn shop,
Central avenue, near George street. Adler,
upon investigation, aScertained that he had been
beautifully duped, complained to Colonel Hud-
SOD. Detective Cary was put onto the case, but
as Lepschitz had in the meantime returned to
indianapolis, he was not captured until yester-
day. when he and his wife arrived here previous
to his going to Chicago, where he was about to
locate. He was found at Sixth and Walnut
streets When taken into custody he made no
complaint, evidently realizing that he had put
his foot into it."
Mrs. Leipschitz, yesterday morning shortly
after her arrival in the city, called upon Colonel
Hudson and detailed her husbands career as q
''poker iend" She implored the chief to assist
her in an endeavor to get possession of some
jewelry which her husband had put up as col
lateral for chips in wellknown poker-room
Mrs. Leipschitz stated that the proprietor of a
popular resort for card players was now wearing
an elegant $500 diamond stud which her husband
had lost over the green cloth.
TO the proprietor of another poker room cot
a mile and half from Fifth and Vine streets
Leipschitz is indebted in the sum of $175. In
this instance the chips were obtained on two
checks, aggregating the amount named. He
was at that time bankrupt. The checks. which
were on an Indianapolis bank, were duly pre-
sented and returned protested. Leipschitz was
well known about the now defunct 'Delmonico'
club room, and at all the card-rooms where
big limit was played He was released on $500
bond, signed by Aaron Nathan, about ii o'clock
last night
