We are informed that Mr.. V.
Letorey has lately imported ON to
his farm at Wartburg, q very fine
Polled Angus Bull named Red
Duke" registered in the English
Herd Book. The animal is five
years old, and is, We suppose, the
finest bull ever imported INTO this
section of country. We congratulate
Mr.. Letorey not only on the possess
ion of SO magnificent a beast but
| also for the enterprise shown b!
him in introducing such a bull; al
Example soon, We nope, to be fol-
lowed by other farmers in our neigh
borhood, as it is a we'll known fact
that fine stock will, in the end,pa,
farmers infinitely better than the
average stock to be seen at present
in our midst.

The illness Of General Grant has
caused universal expression Of regret
at the Capital, where he is perhaps bet
ter known than in any other city III the
Union. His peculiarities aud eccentr'c''

was walk cut every evening tor a
smoke. Just at dusk he woud come
out Of the north gate Of the White
| House alone, with cigar III his mouth,
his head bent down Just little, AND
his left hand behind him holding cane.
That WAS his fayorite attitude, and the
striking figure WAS familiar to every
body. The hackmeu on the streets would
take IF their hats az hr went. by and
he always returned their salutes. he
would walk down past the Treasury
department, down 18th. to the Ave-

National Theatre aud up 18th. towards
New York avenue. All the newsboy.,

knew him and would follow him in his
walk, waiting for him to throw his CT
gar xtumps away. There Vas always y

smoked them, and there was some dig.

La tendencia de muchos de

He visto va diferentes peticiones
de pensiones con cargo q las cajas de
Puerto Rico, procedentes de personals
que cobran por las cajas de Cuba 8 de
Filipinas, pero especialmente por las
cajas de Cuba, considerando sin dnda
que les proporcionaba ventaja cobrar
por las de. Puerto Rico, que re.ativa-
mente tienen desahogo; y puedo decir
4 S. S. que son frecueutes las resolu-
clones negatives, tan frecuentes, que
40 recuerdo, que mi memoria no ME
recuerda mas que un case en- que la
resolution haya sido afrmativa, pues
Sc trataba de una senora viuda cuyo
esposo habia servido mas tempo en-
Pnerto-Rico que en,las demas provin-
cas nltramarinas. La Junta de classes
pasivas, a quien siempre Sc consulta
respecto de estas pensiones, es mny ce-
losa tambi6n por que Sc cumplan las
vi9entes, para que no re-
sulten nunca injustamente gravadas
