WHAT CAME OF AKISS!A miserable, wet day?time, the year

of grace 178S; scene, an old chateau inBrittany.

The young Vicomte de la Sainte Coeurwas horribly bored. All the morningthrough lie bad lounged in tbe dim oldlibrary.

Poor Raoul, he felt himself mnch tobe pitied in this hia. self exileat his aunt's chateau, but certain press-ing and top clamorous creditors bad ne-cessitated a hasty, not to say somewhatundignified, retreat from the festivitiesof tbecourt of Marie Antoinette to tbechateau de St. Jean in the heartof Brit-tany.

Tbe old Marquise de Brillae, bis auntand sole remaining relative, bad livedhere as long as be could remember.Here, too, be bad been brought up since,a little fellow of 6 years, clad in deepmourning, he bad alighted from tbegreat lumbering coach and bad beenconducted into the presence of a statelyold lady, who kissed tbe -poor little vi-oomte ceremoniously onboth cheeks andtold bim that from now he was to con-sider the chateau as his home, since itbad pleased "le bon Dien" to take bothhis father and mother to himself.

At 23 be had started for Paris to takeup his commission of captain in tbeking's bodyguard, a commission he badheld, according to the custom of tbetime, since he had been 10 years old.

Fresh from his Breton home, he hadplunged into all the follies of the dissi-pated capital, and now, four years after-ward, he had come back to obtain hisaunt's assistance in repairing his shat-tered fortunes.

That she was deeply shocked and of-fended he knew, but he also know thatthe childless old" lady dearly loved hishandsome scapegrace self, womanlike,perhaps, never more so than when shehad most cause for anger.

Ho bad arrived at the chateau the pre-vious evening, and his reception hadbeen anything bnt cordial, and all thismorning he had awaited an audiencewith his much offended relative, whohad at last sent him word that she de-sired his presence at dinner at 4 o'clock.

"Thank God, it is almost 4!" ejacu-lated Raoul as, wearied and bored beyondexpression, he wended his way to theapartmentsof the marquise, from whichshe rarely, if ever, stirred.

He reached the antechamber of thesalon and glanced at the Dresden clockon a gilt console. Bah! It wanted tenminutes to tho hour, and Raoul knewthe old lady's rigid notions of etiquetteand felt sure that the sin of arriving toosoon for dinner was as great in her eyesas that of arriving too late.

Well, there was nothing for it but towait the prescribed ten minutes and en-ter the apartments exactly on the strokeof 4. So, for tbe one hundredth timethat day, the vicomte gazed listlesslyout on the court of the chateau, wet andsteaming in tho never ceasing rain.

A patter of high heeled shoes, a froufrou of silken skirts, and Raoul turnsfrom his contemplation of the drearycourtyard to encounter tbe daintiestlittle waiting maid that ever oarried adish. Her lace cap is perched coquet-tishly ou ber soft brown hair; her robeof pink silk is caught back over a petti-coat of palest green, short enough to re-veal her feet and ankles and herclockedstockings and crimson, high heeledshoes;her bodice, out low, after the fashionof the day, displays a neck for round-ness and whiteness a court lady migbtenvy, while in her hands she carries atureen of soup.. But her face?Raoul forgets all elseafter one glance at it?like a rose in itsflowerlike tints, and lighted up by a pairof hazel eyes, which in passing flashswiftly for a moment at the handsomeyoung vicomte of whom all the house-hold is talking.

Raoul is seized with a sudden madimpulse. Quick as thought he springsfrom the window and places himself he-fore thedoor of tbe salon in such a man-ner as toeffectuallybar all further prog-ress of the pretty maid.' She stands irresolute, then glancingtimidly at the handsome, mocking facebefore her:

\u25a0 "Will you permit me to pass, mon-sieur?"

"Not yet, ma belle. It is not oftensuch a vision of loveliness gladdens myeyes. Yon must stay a moment and talkto me?tell me how it happens that I,who have been mewed up here nigh twodays, have never discovered yon before."i An angry flush crimsons tiie girl'sfairface, to be succeeded by a sudden gleamof mischief in her eyes, as, repressingthe sharp words that rise to her lips, shesays again:

"Will you permit me to pass, mon-sieur? Mme. la Marquise is waiting for jinc." |

But he does not quit his position in Ifront of the door, although the littlefeet begin to drum impatiently, and al-ready the clock is on the stroke of 4.

"Miriam does not like to bo kept! waiting," plie began, when Racul inter- j; rupted her:

"Let madam wait" Then seeing a ,look of genuine distress on the lovely 'face: "Come, my fair prisoner, on one

j condition will I let you pass. Let meI but kiss those tempting lips. Let me"? :

She drew herself up with a statelinessworthy of a duchess.

"Monsieur, you mistake," Ao began?aughtily, but Raonl's quick ear caughtIhe sound of approaching footsteps.

She could offer no resistance, embar-rassed as she was with the tureen, andbefore she quite realized the fact theaudacious young noble had claimed histoll and aotnally kissed her; then,throwing open the door, stood aside,bowing to her as deeply as he would tohis aunt herself. I

One flash of tho hazel eyes, and he |heard hor mutter beneath her breath:

"Someday, my fine vicomte, I will;mako you pay for this," and tho pretty !waiting maid passed into the marquise's Jpresence, followed closely by tho scape-grace Baoul.

Needless to say bo won the old lady'sfull forgiveness before he had beei five

j minutes at dinner. Only once bejniadean unlucky remark which almost fmper-

I iled his hopes. {I "Madam, yon have a little mud here

.. ?ess raw svonia naveMen a moem iv! Greuze. Who is she?"

The old lady scrutinized him keenly: with dark eyes which age had not rob-'| bed of their fire. "Raoul, remember if I\u25a0 find you meddling with my maids,

pretty or otherwise, you may expect no. further grace from me. "

Raoul maintained a discreet silence: and .merely bowed in answer to the: marquise's warning, bnt he mentally

: ejaculated, "Gad, I bone the little misti will tell no tales!"| Evidently "the little minx" did not, jj for two days later the vicomte started

\u25a0 again for Paris with ample means te1 satisfy his creditors and continue hi«

I gay life atcourt, and if at first a flower-! like face and a pair of flashing eye*

haunted his dreams other fair facesi claimed his thoughts, and as time wenti on tbo pretty serving, maid at the old! chateau became a dim memory.

? » ? ? ? ?

Ten years after. Gone is the gaycourt, gone tbe beautiful queen whopresided over its revels, gone all thatwas bright and gracious, and in itsstead reigns ared cappedtyranny, whosemotto indeed is "Liberty, Equality andFraternity," but whose argument...iaohtoflr tbe guillotine.

Surely this city of terror, throughwhich daily rumbles a ghastly proces-sion of tumbrils laden with victims for"la lanterne," as the guillotine is fa-miliarly called, surely this is not Paris,the gay, the pleasure laden, the queenof cities.

Citizen Danton sits in his room busilywriting.

A tall, well made man, with brownhair, nnpowdered and brushed careless-ly off his forehead, and alionlike head,he is a refreshing contrast to the dandy,yellow faced tbe brutalMarat, his colleague.

A member of the national guard en-ters the room. Danton looksup sharply.

"What is it, citizen?""The Citizeness Valericwishes to see

you."JSASS.

"Let the citizeness enter," he saysgruffly enough, but bends his beadquickly over his writing, that' the manmay not see the rare pleasure her com-ing gives him

A moment after the citizeness enters,and from the cordiality of their greet-ing it is easy to see that tbey aro oldfriends.

"To what lucky accident may I as-cribe the visit of the adorable citizen-ess?" he says in the florid language somuch in vogue.

The "adorable citizeness," a lovelywoman of 27, who well merits the title"adorable," shrngs her shoulders andlaughs.

"Still as complimentary as ever, citi-zen. Well, I will not waste your timein unnecessary guessing. I have cometo beg a favor. "

"Which is granted already, lovelyone."

"Take care, citizen. I shall keep youto your word. " Then, the careless gay-ety disappearing from her mobile fea-tures, "You have on your list of suspectsthe name of one Raoul, autrefois Vi-comte dela Sainte Coeur. Yon must givehim to me," this latter with a pretty-air of com inand.

Danton's faco prew grave. He took upthe list- Yes; there was the uarne in-cluded in tomorrow's list forthe guillo-tine.

He glanced keenly at tbe fair peti-tioner. She caught the glance and un-derstood it perfectly.

"Have no fear, citizen. It is but torepay a loug cherished vengeance, ofwhich his death will deprive mo, th3t Ibeg his life."

Danton took up his pen irresolutely,and Citizeness Valerie's eyes gleamedwith a quick flash of triumph. She hadwon.

" What would you have me do, citi-zeness?"

"Strikeout his name from the list,send an order for his release, togetherwith a private note telling at whose in-tercession he had been released. Hewill, without doubt, come to thank metomorrow, and then, ah, then we shallsee1" and her brilliant hazel eyesflashedwith an ominous light that bodes ill forthe unlucky vicomte.

Danton smiles grimly as he writes theorder and draws thepen through Raonl'sname on the list

"Citizeness, excuse a somewhat wornsimile, but you women are uncommon-ly like cats and treat us poor men verymuch as that interesting feline animaltreats a monse.

"To a man the idea that one's enemywas about to be executed would be am-ple revenge; but, no, you must have theunfortunate wretch in yonr power, totease and worry, to alternately tormentand coax, until your sense of wrong issatisfied. Excuse the dissertation," headded, handing her the order, "never-theless you must acknowledge itstruth."

An odd smile curled the lips of tbebeautiful woman as she rose to makeher adiec.

"Citizen, I cannot thank yon suffi-ciently. Only know that this morningyon have placed in my hands a revengefor which I have waited ten long years.Whether you will admire themanner inwhicli I pursue it is another question,jut of this rest assured?of all the manysavors yon have bestowed on me duringthe years yon haveknown me yon haveconferred no greater than this boon."

A smile, a rustle of silk, and the nextmoment she was gone, leaving behindher a subtle perfume of rosea, whichI seemed strangely out of place in an archi republican's room, and glancing down iDanton saw lyir>s- on the floor a little !lace handkerchief.

He took it oarefnlly in his great bands?how small and daiitty it secerned to

i him!?smoothes, it carefully vow; then,[ looking round a3 if he expected to see

' her return and claim it he placed itwith tender care in an inner pocket inthe breast of bis coat. And for a mo- j

; ment on his rugged face there shone thatj wondrous light that "never was on land;or sea," for dearer even than she guess-!

Ed was the Citizeness Valeric to thisman who held in his bands tbe fate ofFrance. i

Who wan the Citizencsp Valeric? TheCitizem -s Valeric was a beautiful ac-tress, whom all Paris raved about, andwhose beauty and s-parkliri-,' ,vit drewcrowds to tbe theater, in spiie of thegrim terror reigning supreme. Noone knew anything about her. No oneever heard of her until, two years ago,she bad risen snddenly on the dramatic*

j horizon a star of the first magnitude.The wildest stories were told of her. !

! Some said she was a yonng aristocrat: who had lost all her kindred by tho

'\u25a0 guillotine, others that she was a true i. daughter cf the people and had been

seen with the women who had sacked :

Versailles. Be it as it may, however, jaristocrat and democrat alike agreed inworshiping at ber shrine, and over allher power seemed illimitable.

Danton perhaps conld have told moreabout ber than moat people, bnt Dantonf hea questioned at tbe ralrjept was un- -

who, ent or sheer ennui, masqueraaea? as her waiting maid. Her name?let as

say ber nameis Valeric leClero, thoughperhaps the name makes nogreat differ-

i eucc. Let na suppose this cornerof theroom to be theantechamber to madame'isalon. Enter the young noble." Shespeaks quickly, trembling with excite-ment, and Raoul catches the feverof hotwords, for back from the dim memoriesof long ago comes this odd comedy, theflrst act of -which was played out tenyears ago.

"yes," he says, "Iknow this scene.Enter myself, and, shortly afterward,enter the so called waiting maid, witha tureen in her hands, so, madame,"catching np apiece of porcelain from aneighboring table and placing it in Va-lerie's hands.

Then, throwing himself before thedoor with ail his old easy grace, helooks at her with the fire of a fierce,newly awakened love burning in biseyes.

Slowly a ripple of laughter breaksfrom her as she raises her hazel eyes to Ihis brown ones. "Well, monsieur, as Iyon know this comedy so well, whatthen?"

What does Raoul see in their change-ful depths, that, heedlessof the delicate:porcelain she holds, he springs forwardand catches ber in his arms, forgetfulof all that has passed in these ten years,kisses her, not once, bnt again and again.

Valeric does not seem displeased atsuch aproceeding, nor does she seek tofree herself from theprisonof bis strongembrace. Onlya few minutes afterwardshe says:

"Ah, M. le Vicomte de la SainteCoeur, ten years ago I told yon Iwouldbe revenged I I have made your nobleself, fall in love with the actress, theCitizeness Valeria I have given you'tit for tat'"

For answer be holds the slender fig-ure closer in his arms and gazes withuntold love at the lovely, laughing faceupturned to his.

"You have made mefall in love withthe noblest woman this earth possesses,''he says passionately, and Valeric is si-lent, for at last ber vengeance is com-plete.?San Francisco Examiner.

! aenwoiy grim,ana* innum w-icu-khi*.. was a lion to be approached withutmost

delicacy and care.*«?? . ? ?

Raoul, ci devantVicomte de la SainteCoeur, could hardly credit his good for*

1 tune.Here on the very day when, according

,to his forecast of events yesterday, heshould have yielded up his head to the

.repubilio, he was a free man, free to gawhither he listed, and where indeed

! should he go bnt to the woman who foi| some unknown reason was sufficiently

interested in him to preserve his head,far the present, on his shoulders?

He bad aged considerably since, teni years ago, he sought refuge in the oldt Chateau de Jean. Was it only ten? To-}* Raoul it seemed nigh a hundred. Some-

how, as lie walked slowly in tho dirnc-I tion of the Citizeness Valerie's bouse,

bis thoughts dwelt on that visit of tonyears ago.

Poor old marquiseI Lucky forher shedied before all these troubles fell sothick upon "la belle France" and leftall her wealth, which was not inconsid -erable, to ber much loved nephew Raoul.

Not much of that wealth remains, hethinks grimly, save the old chateau in

* Brittany, which has escaped the.generaldestruction of tbe chateaux owing tothepious memory in which the late Mar-quise de Brilliao is still held by highand lowfor miles around.

But her nephew dare not claim hisown, and be is on his way to thank thiswoman who has thought fit to save bisworthless life. That done, he willraisewhat moneyhe can by the sale of a fewjewelsthat yet remain to him; then hewill take ship to England, there toawait the dawning of better times.

For twoyears' struggle against repub-lican troops in La Vendee has convincedhim of the hopelessness of the Bourboncause, and he sees plainly that the redtide of revolution that sweeps overFrance is not stemmed by aband of no-bles, however devoted they and theirsmay be to that cause.

His reflections havebrought him tothe houseof tbe CitizenessValeric, wherehe is evidently expected, for no soonerhas he given his name than a groom oftbe chambers in rich livery comes for-ward to conduct him to the salon wherethe citizeness will receive him.

Raoul gazes curiously on the unmis-takable signs of wealth that meet hiseye?the costly furniture, tho pictures,the rich liveries of theservants. Verily,he thinks, tins actress lives as well as,ten years ago, did a princessof theroyalblood.

If you try to find out what is thematter with an animal before yon pun-ish him, you will probably rind thatthere is no reason to punish bim. Becareful to remove anything that causesfear. Animal are often terrified bythings that men hardly observe. If theyare punished, their terror is only in-creased Nothing will quiet them sosoon as gentle talk and caressing. Kind-ness will win the confidence of anyanimal, and an animal which confidesin its keeper is easily managed If youwant your horse towork well, take goodcare that his harness does not chafehim.

Third.?AH animals requiresunshine,and their dwellings should havo asouth-erly or westerly aspect if possible, batthey should always have access to shadewhen tbey desire it Stables, sheds,coops and cages should be well drained,well lighted and well ventilated, butnever draft}*. Different animals requiredifferent temperatures. A humane own-er will prevent much suffering by learir-ing the degree of heat and cold whichthe animal is enabled by natureor habittoendure. Every stable yard, cage, ken-nel and bed should be kept thoroughlyclean.

Fourth.?Every animal should haveas muoh solid food daily as it will eatnp clean, but no more than it will con-sume. Stale food is unwholesome. Itshould be removed early in the morningand replaced by a fresh supply. Noctur-nal animals should be fed at sunset. Becareful to give all animals as much va-riety of food as possible and let it be asnearly as possible the food which theanimal would use in a state of nature.Animals whioh are regularly fed ongrain onght to have frequentsupplies ofgreen food.

Fifth.?Every animal should have anabundant supply ofpure water fordrink-ing. Vessels used for food or watershould be washed daily and should bewiped dry before refilling. Iron troughsor plates lined with porcelain are thebest, being clean, cheap and durable.

Sixth.?Bathing is necessary to thehealth and comfort of many animals.Cage birds ought to be allowed to bathedaily, and a separate vessel, adapted totheir size, should be supplied for thatpurpose. Some birds delight in dustbaths. A working horse should be al-lowed every day to roll on the grass, orbetter, perhaps, on sawdust.

Seventh.?Animals as veil as menare happier and better for reasonable rec-reation. Whenever it is possible theyshould have it. Tho horse should be al-lowed an opportunity to run at large!Dogs, especially in cities, should botaken ont to run freely. Even cagn Mrir*are immensely pleased if they are al-lowed to leave the cage for an hour orso everyday.

Eighth.?When an animalis sick, seethat it is kept quiet and unmolested,and that its treatment is unusually gen-tle.

Ninth.?When it is certain that ananimal will die, always secure the serv-ices of a humane and experienced per-son to destroy it in the quickest andleast painful way, and when it diesneverfail to bury it at once.

Tenth.?Try to make the world aahappy a world as possible for any crea-ture in your charge.

The servant conducts him to a spa-cious apartment furnished with all theextravagance of tbe period and informshim that the citizeness will receive himwithout delay.

Left alone, unconsciously Raonl'sthoughts fall back into the train inwhich they ran during his walk thither.

Once more he goes back to that drearyafternoon ten years ago, and before himrises, as many a time it has risen, alovely, flowerlikoface and angry, flash-ing hazel eyes. He puts the vision fromhim with a bitter laugh. Surely bistroubles have turned his brain that theface of a pretty waiting maid should sohaunt him. Then comes tbe uneasydoubt that has often perplexed him be-fore. What if, after all, she were noserving maid, but one of hia own rank?Bah! It all happened ten years ago, anda kiss is no such crime, after all.

The door opens, and he goes forwardto meet the Citizeness Valeric, who en-ters.

Clad in a pale pink gown of some soft,clinging material, she looks ber loveli-est today, bnt Raoul starts back, torsurely those hazel eyes and that softbrown hair are the same which havebooften haunted his dreams. The round-ness of the girlish face, the slendernessofthe girlish figure, are gone, bnt savethather beauty has blossomed into a gloriousmaturity there stands before him the lit-tle maid of the chateau.

She sees his start and smiles."Ifear I have disturbed your medita-

tions, monsieur." She drops the repub-lican "citizen" in speaking tothis aris-tocrat.

"I have been so long exiled in LaVendee that the glory of the goddess ofParis somewhat dazzled me," he said,bowing low over the white band sheholds out to him.

She flushes, bnt whether in pleasure,<r anger he catnot telL.

"Madame, let n*>9 convey to yon toy?rincerest tnnnks for having deigned I*3Intercedefor my worthless life," contin-ues Kaoul, half unconscious, bnt hold-ing tbe little whitehand in hia own,browned and hardened by sun and ex-posure.

She draws it away quickly, and herface palesand crimsons again with somesudden emotion.

"The poor actress, Valeric, shoulddeem herself too highly honored if shebe in any way instrumental in savingtbe life of a Sainte Coeur," she beginsbitterly, then suddenly stops as shemeets the eyes of the vicomte fixed re-proachfully on her.

"Nay, madame. Do not undervalueyonr own gift What yon have dono forme today has rendered me yonr slaveforever."

A gleam of tbe old merriment flashesin Valerie's eyes. Quick as thought shedecides how to act.

"No more thanks, monsieur. I takeyon at your word and enroll you as 'myslave forever.' Is it not so?

"No more fair mistress ever owned amorewilling slave," heresponds eager-ly, for this woman has set his heart

: beating and his pulse dancing as no onei has ever done before.

"One boon only I crave," be contin-ues?"that is the nameof the fair lady Iservo."

For nn instant a shade passes overtheface of the actress, but only for an in-stant. With a gay laugh she says: "Iam tho Countess Valeric to all now.Onco, long ago, I was"? Then, notinghis eager anxiety, she interrupts herselfand cries gayly: "Come, monsieur. Iwant your help in a littlo comedy I amrehearsing. Perhaps, afterthat is given,I will tell you who I once was, "andshe adds in a lower tone, as if address-ing herself, "if yon will not alreadyhave remembered it"

''I am your slavein everything,'' saysRaoul, thinking what a mercurial wom-an this actress is?so rapid and vrithalso charming are her transitions fromgrave to gay.

She laughs an odd little laugh whichhas a ring of mockery in its tones.

"The scene of the comedy is laid inan old chateau; the time, ten yearsago;the dramatic pcrsonse?well, for con-venience, we will say, you and L"Raoul felt hia heart beat with a strangesense of expectancy.

"You will have no need to changeyonr characters," she goes on. "Yonare a yonng noble on a short visit to thechateau and bored to death with dull-ness. I?welCain a waiting maid,or per-haps I should say a young friend of theold marquise?(did I tell yon the cha-teau belonged to an old uatxroise})~

I DID tfRANT A SERVICE' MR. HALL'S ACCOUNT OF AN UNPUB-

-1 LISHED WAR INCIDENT.

Bad a Certain Telegraphic Message lfotBeen Intercepted Grant Might Not Have

I Won Fame-Interesting Correspondence' Never Before Made Public.

In the history of the rebellion manythrilling incidents have been omittedwhich would be read with tbe deepestinterest The war in tho beginning wasconsidered by the English as the begin-ning of the end of the American repub-lic, try Yon Moltke as a mere rabble, ariot, which would be insignificant inits resulta Yet It proved to be one oftbe mightiest convulsions in militaryhistory, through which the art of wararrived at a higher state of perfectionthan everbefore.

The telegraph became one of the most.t powerful weapons of the war depart-| ment, and all Europe copied it Menj were brought into prominence from ob-

scurity and honored with the highestgifts the country could bestow.

! Among those most conspicuous wasGeneral TJ. a Grant Nnmeroasfnotionssprang up in opposition to his steadyprogress, and General Grant, in his,memoirs of this time, says many were'clamoring for his removal. Even thetelegraph was utilized to further thework of opposition, and had not themanager of tbe Commercial Telegraphoffices in Cairo, Ills., assumed the re-'sponsibility of intercepting a paid mes-sage to a prominent judge and a mem-,ber of congress in Washington the nameof Ulysses 8. Grant might have beenunknown to history.

In view of substantiating this fact,correspondence never before publishedwillbe read with interest:

Cairo, Ills., April 3, 1863.Major General U. 8. Grant, Commanding De-

partment Tennessee:Sin?As one loyal to the government and

holding the position as manager of the Com-mercial Telegraph officesof Cairo, I feel it al-ways my duty to arrestanything contrabandthat may pass through my office, feeling thatI .hail be both justifiedand upheldbythe gov-ernment and my country.

With this consideration I have taken uponmyselftheresponsibility ofstopping amessage,destined for Washington, originating at Padu-cah, Ky., a copy of which I Inclose you, be-lieving it to bo contraband from the fact thatIroin it.-; tone ho who sends it and perhapsoth*:ers ar ? working against if not to the injury oftho cv*n t'-andor cf thedep&rtm.nt. Y'-terdav(April 2) I consulted Colonel Hill, Tlurty-flfttlowa, a mail of good, sound sense, and he Jus-tifies my holding This morrsingImet Major General Humiiton,and he l'-illy.apprbvwmy course in tbe matter and ad.vi-.-eame to inclose copy ofm s uwUhtaßparticulars .and nw.i't Venn* instructions. >

What I .: me to lioLice it was the operator atPaducah Informed me he had a privateciphermessage, not military cipher, which he wantedme to receive and forward to Wasningtoj- Irefused to receive it in cipher, asnone bnt gov-ernment messages in timo of war are allowed

, to go by telegraph incipher.He then sent it to me in full, as herein In-

closed, and although it was approved by thecommander of tho post atPaducah I still, uponmy own responsibility, would not allow it togo throughuntil I had consulted somemilitarymen of high authority. I havo done so, re-ceived their advice and amacting accordingly.I am now awaiting your instructions, believ-

ingyon will upholdmo in my position in thematter. With the highest respect and esteem Iam, sir, your obedient servant, W. H. Hall,Manager Commercial Telegraph Offices, Cairo,

Ills. Mailed April «, 1863.Here is a copy of the dispatch:

PAnuoAH, April 2,1863.To JudgeGreenAdams or Hon. S.L. Casey, M.

Cs, Washington:I got here last night,and, greatly to my sur-

prise, found bills had been struck callinga dis-trict convention. Isuppressed it fora time atleast until Casey could get things fixed up atWashington and then return home atonce. Wemnst have our policy foreshadowed before aconvention Is held.

This departmentmust atonce be taken fromunder General Grant. His every act has beenin sympathywith Trimble, Duke & Co. MakeCasey'sdistrict a separate one and give ColonelDougherty full control over it. Captain HenryBattling, Company I, Second Illinois cavalry,who lias been here for six months, is a greatfavorite with Casey's friends, hasbeen orderedoff to Vicksbnrg. Have an order to have himtransferred back to this department immedi-ately. I wrote yon at length yesterday. Doyour part, and we will be certain to do ours.

Here is what the general wrote in an-swer:

Miixiken's Bum, La., April 9, 1883.W. H. Hall, Esq., Manager Commercial Tele-graph Cairo, His.:

Sib?Yonr letter of the 3d inst., inclosing atelegraph from J. T. Bolinger to Judge GreenAdams or S. L. Casey, Washington, is just thismoment received. I hasten to answer it and toexpress my approval of the course pursued byyou.

You have my hearty thanks for your promptand decisive action in this matter, notwith-standing the approval of thecommanding offi-cer at Paducah to the dispatch. Truly yours,

U. S. Grant, Major GeneralNo further trouble emanated from

that quarter. A silent but speedy change'was effected in Paducah. GeneralGrant's firm determination to do hisduty crowned him with success, andsoon after the fall of Vicksbnrg he wascalled to the command of the Army ofthe Potomac.?W. H. Hall in NewYork Herald.

-rsMDaa Bunas.It is a sad fact that there are bnt few

places in London where a properlydressed salad is obtainable. Faultydressing is bad, bnt it was given to awell known piano to goone worse. Theyabsolutely brought mo a lettuce saladthat had been cut with a knife and cov-ered with suiiio highly noxious com*pound in tho wayof a patent salad drew-tag.

Yon can get good salad in the French,and Italian restaurants round tio'uo, butfor the best in the world yon must goto Spain. The recipe there is peculiar.Mustard and egg are not tolerated, andoil is to vinegar in the proportion of 'three to one. The leaves of the salad areplucked and wrung dry. Various savoryherbs aro chopped np on aplate at yourtide, and the dressing is only pouredover the leaveswhen yon are justreadyto eat them. The vinegar is mixed withan equal part of water, but this is, Iimagino, on account of its strength. Ido not wish any harm to the barbarianwho first invented a compound saladdressing, but should like him to taste asalad dressed by a Seville chef and thenbe condemned to take his own concoc-tion for the rest of his unnatural life,which would not, I think, be long.?London Sketch.
