HIGHER PRICES FOR JERSEY CATTLE.

Seated about the sales-Ting yesterday at the
American Horse Exchange were many sOlid-lOoking
men, representing the Jersey cattle interests Of
various States. II was the second day of Kelloggs

only of Jerseys, and bewaed the fact that so many
mediocre animals were put upon the list OF the first
day, thereby creating the impression by the prices
of the stock that the interest in this special breed
is OH the wane, when IN fact II is booming.

A Spy Aboard the Kearsarge.

At a meeting of the Loyal League, in
Washington, Governor J. Schuyler Cros-
by, first assistant postmaster general,
who was one of the guests, related an
interesting incident of the civil war
which he learned while in Florence. He
was introduced to Lord Burgoyne, of
England. with whom he formed pleas
ant acquaintance, and who, in mention
ing some of his acquaintances with
Americans, told the following story:
Just before the famous naval duel off
Cherbourg harbor, between the United
States man of-wa Kearsarge and the
Confederate privateer Alabama, in which
the latter was sunk, Lord Burgoyne
visited the Cherbourg In his yacht, the
Greyhound. Both vessels at that time
were in the harbor, the Kearsarge await
ing the sailing of the Alabama to strike
her in neutral waters. Lord Burgoyne
was acquainted with some of the Off
GERS on the Kearsarge, and one
day at the table d'hote said something
to his vis-a-vis, a very intelligent Amer
lean, whose acquaintance he had made
at the hotel, about visiting the ship. The
gentleman said if Lord Burgoyne was
willing he should very much like to ac-
companying him ON the visit.
The latter expressed his pleasure at
having so agreeable a companion, and
the next day the two friends boarded
the Kearsarge. Lord Burgoyne's intro
duction was sufficient TO secure q cordial
welcome, and the officers of the Kear-
sarge were lavish in their attentions.
When the guests were shown through
the ship Lord BurgOyue was surprised at
the information regarding armament,
guns, machinery, and the like that
his friends minute questions revealed,
and he set him down for remarkably
accomplished gentleman.
A few DAYS later the Alabama prepared
to sail from CherbOurg, and everybody in
town was alive for the expected fight
Lord Burgoync wanted to see 1t too. His
accomplished friend had departed. so he
sailed ont of tie harbor in his Yacht
without him and kept the Kearsarge and
Alabama in sight. The part played by
the Grey hound in picking up the survi-
vors from the Alabama has become his
torical, but Lord Burgoyne's little sur
prise was never before recorded. The
first swimmer he pulled into the boat he
had lowered was Capt. Rafael Semmcs.
the commander of the Alabama. 4 lit
tie later the first officer of the Alabama
was pulled in. AS he stood before Lord
Burgoyne, wet and dripping, the latter's
eyes opened wide with astonishment.
why said he, this is Mn
naming his friend Of the table d'hOte and
fellow visitor TO the Kearsarge.
