Senator John Logan of Illinois,
who refused the Invitation to a duel
with Representative Lowe of Alabama,
is paid to be nri excellent marksman
with the pistol.
Recently President Hayes up
pointed James Hill, a well-known
colored man, collector of internal rev
enue for Mississippi, and he was re
quired to give a bond in the mm of
$220,000. The Vlcksburg Herald
points to the fact that while men
readily went on his bond for this
amount in order to show that deserv
ing colored men get full recognition
in that State.
A citizen of Bangor, Me , has had
a unique gift make for the poet Long
fellow. It consistsof a pen and holder.
The pen is made from the iron fetters
of Bonnlvard, the famous prisoner of
Chillon. The socket is made of mas
sive gold pet with three of the rarest
gems known to the mineralogist ttie
'white pheniikits of Siberia, the yellow
zircon of Ceylon and the red tourma
line of Maine. The handle is com
posed of a piece of live oak from the
old frigate Constitution.
Mr. L. Dclmonico has been tell
ing the public the best ways of cook
ing fish. Boiling seems to him the
"most legitimate," as well as quickest
and most convenient. His direction
is to "put them in cold spring water
the less the quantity of water that the
fish can he boiled in the better with
a handbill of suit. Bub a liitle v'megi.r
on the skin of the li-h, to prevent it
from cracking, and to make the flesh
solid. Ten minutes to the pound
should be allowed for a salmon, and
three or four minutes for almost any
other kind; but a good general rule is
that the fish is done when the fins pull
out easily." Mr. De.'nionico also says
that broiled fish should be "carefully
pplit in two from head to tail, dried,
seasoned with salt and pepper, greased
with a li-ttle oil (which is preferable to
buticr',, and broiled to a nice brown
color, the gridiron having been pre
viously well greased, too;" that baked
fish, t" tie eaten in perfect ii-'i, should
be "cooked with wine, either white or
red, in baking-dish, besides chopped
onion, salt, pepper and nutmeg, and
while cooking this s.iueo d"v.i!d he
spread ov(r it several times; and that
small fish liiny be "deliriously fried in
oil, after dipping in milk and then
Hour, or in very hof grease, after being
breaded with beaten eggs and crumbs.

Secretary Sherman loses no time
in saying that he has not gone to Ohio
to secure the Republican nomination
for Goornor of thutStutc. Evidently
he does not believe that his own politi
cal purposes or those of his party
require him to make the canvass next
autumn. The party's chances he be
lieves to lie good in Ohio under Judge
Tuft or Mr. Forster. In reply to a re
mark to the e fleet that one of these
was a "liberal" and the other a
"Stalwart" lie significantly said on
Monday that ' tin re isn't much dif
ference now between stalwarts and
liberals." This u one result of the
partisan movements tit Washington.
In respect to his own purposes, per
haps in the circumstances Mr. Sher
man would not regard the governor
ship of bis-state as a promotion. If
he looks higher, he may say to himself
that it is doubtful whether a prelimi
nary canvass in Ohio would be a help
or a hindrance. Jle shares the wide
kiU'cUhteonils' p';;vty u,;hut
foresee great possible changes of
opinion. Aside from merely political
considerations the Secretary believes
that there is important financial work
for him to do in the Cabinet. We art
glad to see that he holds fast to the
opinion that the free coinage of silver
would drive gold out and establish a
depreciated standard. The proposed
freo coinage bill will therefore receive
no countenance from the administra
tion .X. V. Pout.
In a letter received by a prominent
commission house in St. Louis from
General McMillan, Post master of New
Orleans, a leading Louisiana Republi
can and a friend of President Ila.ns,
he says: " r very much fear the exo
dus of negroes from the Valley of the
Mississippi has reached such an impe
tus that it cannot be stopped. Mer
chants and planters are arousing them
selves to the necessity of doing some
thing to stay the movement, but so
long as the sentimental philanthropy
of the North holds out material en
couragement, efforts from this
will prove fruitless. I hear the fever,
us it is called, has broken out In Con
cordia parish, un.l that three thousand
negroes are on the bank ltweeu Vi
daiia, and St. Joe. So far Carroll is
quiet, and I hope it may remain so,
and in any event, I hope to keep my
hands at lea'Vt this year. There is a
movement on foot looking toward the
organization of a Mississippi Valley
Transportation Society for the purpose
at iildui-ing tiio nogmKMahoratoruniuin,

supply their places with' other labor,

naries are all settled, and organization
takes place to-tlay. Leading factors
and some planters are in It, myself and
iriends among the latter. A strong
organization will be mude, and a large
capital raised if needed. The idea of

I think him the best we will ever

Washington Letter, i
From our rrgtilnr Correnponclent. , '
Washington, D. C, May 12th.
The disputed army - legislation is
now regarded as virtually ' settled.'
There seems to bo no doubt that the
President will filgn the separate bill
prepared by the Deinoeratio caucus
and promptly passed, and when
ho does the army appropriations
will bo Immediately put through.
Very likely the whole matter will be
disposed of before the end of the week.
There will then remain the legislative
appropriation bill, with its .anti
marshal clause, to bo acted upon.
How far the Democrats will cure to ex
tend the contest over that branch of
the subject there is at present no very
clear indication. Nobody expects the
President to sign the bill abolishing
supervisors and marshals, and it may
lie that we shall have li prolonged con
test over it; but I have heard it In
timrtcd that there is a feeling among
1 lie Democrats that, with the army in
its proper place, they can take euro of
the marshals. If a company of United
States troops conies to the polls to
"regulate" an election, nobody is
going to resist them, and they can
have tilings their own way; but when
it comes to a lot of marshals appointed
by one party to stand around to influ
ence and arrest voters of the other
party, they think they can undertake
to dispute their authority and take the
matter into the courts.
Tills is the talk I have heard quietly
among some Democrats lately, and
based upon the theory that the super
visors law will not be repealed. If,
therefore, the Democratic members of
Congress take this view of the case, it
is not at all likely that they will make
a very desperate fight for the repeal.
They believe that the people are with
them in the desire to have such laws
wiped out, but having accomplished
something by the act prohibiting the
use of the army, there will probably be
some diflcrenee of opinion among
them concerning the advisability of
extreme measures to secure the rest of
their programme. I am talking now
of the probabilities from the Democratic
side. Many of the Republicans do hot
like to have the President sign the
caucus bill, but the general impression
among them is t lint he will do so, and
perh ips it may have been done by the
time this letter reaches you. Nobody
can tell, three days in advance, what
politicians will do, especially where
neither side is able to do just what it
wants to; but the indications now are
that the session will end about the 1st
of June. Either that, or we shall
have a "Long Parliament" a con
tinuous session until the end of this
Congress.
The Senate has decided to open the
Kellogg case, or, at least, to have an
Investigation into the manner of his
election, and the means used to secure
that end. Charges of bribery have
been brought, and it is not believed
'here will lie any effort to unseat Kel
logg unless these aresustained, though
the Democrats contend that, other
things ah aside, lie was not elected by
a 'egal Legislature, the body that
elected having shortly afterdisbanded,
and Packard, who signed his certifi
cate, havihg never been Governor.
But I don't think there is any purpose
to oust Kellogg on these grounds now,
and if the charge of bribery is dis
proved he will retain his seat. Kel
logg fought hard against the investi
gation. The time may be somewhere
in the dim distant future when there
will be no "Kellogg case" in" the
United States Senate, but it is a long
while since such a (state of things ex
isted. The squatter invasion of the Indian
Territory is occupying the attention of
the Administration, as it may well do.
The Attorney General, at the last
umcuy, gnu-ii i ei'uai opin ion
that, under the treaties of 10(30 with
the Creeks and Seminoles, by which
the lands were surrendered in conse
quence of the desire of the Government'
to locate civilized Indians and free
men thereon, the lands were not open
to white settlers. Considerable time
was spent in discussing the authority
to use the military to prevent the in
vasion under the recent restrictive
legislation of Congre.-s. It was, how
ever, agreed that the law authorizing
theSuperiutendant of Indian Affairs
to cail upon the military to assist him
in ejecting intruders was unimparcd,
and that a very general request for
that purpose would be sullicient au
thority for military intervention,
and that every effort should be put
forth to prevent the squatters from
obtaining a permanent foothold there.
The reported discovery of silver mines
was wholly discredited, beinir reirardcd
as a canard to aid the scheme of
invasion. The latest report indicate
that, in view of the uetive measures
taken by the Government, the squat
ters will not attempt to go into the
Territory in a body, but will break up
into small squads and cross the line at
various points. The point of destina
tion is the lands lying north and
south of the north fork of the Canadian
near the centre of the Territory.
