Grant at, the army re-union in _Chicago, in which Grant remarked, "We cannot go to them; they must come to us. But when they come as improved men, we should not repel them." - This accords with the spirit in which Gen. Longstreet, and all other rebels] who are governed-by Common sense, have been received by the Republi canparty, and is, in fact ; only reciprocating the intelligence and the patriotism they them selves exhibit. I A Cam - Forms. itimuoikinsx.- I —A letter from San Francisco, speaking, of the rich ness of the White Pine Mining district in Nevada, says there is' now- in that city a middle aged man; who, a year since, was at work by the month as a mechanic and not worth a dollar. •To-day he is worth at least $1,000,000 in hard coin, and his income from one m:ne alone in White Pine is over $1,500 Der day. He is investing his money in real estate in San Francisco. The other day a friend was joking, him on the • subject of *marriage, remarking that he could now mar ry any young lady in San Francisco,' to which he replied: "Well, I know a gal out West who was willing to marry me when I hadn't a cent, and now I'm able, I'm going 'to marry her." Tun INDIAN BUSEAI7.—The question. of - transferring the Indian Bureau from the Interior Department, with a view of mak ing it a • separate department, was dis cussed by the Senate Indian Committee. It was finally agreed that the chairman should propose a bill taking the Indian Bureau out -of the Interior, and making Ica separate bureau like the Agricultural Bureau. It was-feirther agreed that there should be two general superintendents—one on the Pacific slope, -and- the other on'the Atlantic slope, whose duty it-shall be to have charge ; of all the other Indian agents, visiting the same and examining , into all the affairs of the In dian Department of their respectivedisfricts, and to correct all abuses, &c. It was also agreed that whenever any one of the tribes become involved in war with the Govern ment, the said tribe should be handed over to the War Department, to be dealt with by the military authorities, and as soon as hos tilities cease, the tribe, to be handed over again to the Indian Bureau. . 3 .

The local authorities in power :at thellate of the outrage have been dis 'missed and the. Indemnity for losses sus tained by missionaries paid.' A proclama tion, issued by Chinese authority, was ex lensively promulgated, setting forth that the treaty requires that religious establish ments shall not be annoyed or foreign travelers treated 'disrespectfully. 'under heavy, penalty. The missionary party has been invited back, including female mem bers, and formalil reinstated. The ring leaders of the plot have been severely pun ished by fines and banishment. Mining operations at Chetoo were suc cessful. Some valuable mines:. had been -discovered. A party 'of Americans con-, ' Untie work, and express no fear of the Man tlarin--soldiery. • Major General Bennker had assnniedsthe lieutenant Governorship of the colony at Hong Kong. T. T. Meadows, British 'Consul at, New, Chong, died suddenly. Tire English gunboat Rinaldo sailed for Bormosa with the object of settling the re -cent difficulty at that port. i„ Manilla advices state the people of the Thillipine Islands generally favor the, new „government of Spain. No declaration was made by, the Governor General,. but a full .account of the late events in Spain, . pub lished in the , official Gazette, is regarded as .a tacit acknowledgment of his sympathy ;with the revolutionists. The weather in China is cold. The navi :gation of the principal ricer was over for the Season. The/Jnited - States Minister at rr Hanko .43aused the local • government to issue a Proclamation forbidding the Chinese to mo lest Missionaries. ' The Chinese' newspapers contain edito rials on the subject of emigration and ado- Mutton in Lower California, which is •-opened to the Chinese on liberal terms. The shock of an earthquake was felt at ;Manilla November 441. The exportation of Coolies from Mama to •Callao is forbidden, in consequence pf cru -eitles perpetrated upon Chinese laborers in .Peru. - • - - • ' Crams—Their Use and Abuse. A. writer in the last number ofirea'tlA and Home gives some information in regard to crows, which we quote : • There is, however, much to•be said for, as well as against the crow, anti though the evidence be sufficient to condemn him in one locality, or at a particular season, it does not necessarily follow that he should be con demned in all places, and at all times. The crow is, by his anatomy and physi oloey, about as omniverous as any bird can well be, and we find him appropriating Al most any kind of 'feed, whether animal or vegetable, that he finds. At this season he leads a somewhat precarious life in the in terior. At times he picks up kernels of corn, or other grain on the roads, or scratches over the manure-heaps'; occasion ally he breakfasts on a frezen carcass, and very likely he will get bold enough, or hungry enough to attack small living prey. He has been known to carry off stray chickens, and to rob the nest of smaller birds of eggs or young. Most of the crows, however, Seek the sea-shore in winter, and there live luxuriously ppon shell fish, crabs, sea urchins, and tha like, which are thrown up by the waves. In very severe weather, they' frequent the floating Weeks of ice In the open channels, and pick up what they can find drifting in the water. It is not uncommon to see them engaged thus, in great numbers, about the harbor, of New York., As Spring opens they gradually go North ward, and to the interior; and by the middle of March, in the more Southern parts of the country, or by the lst of April in the more, Northern, they begin to-make arrangements for raising a family. To this end, they se led as secure sights for their nests as the country affords, , usuallpreferring the shah ter of the dense branc hes of tall evergreen trees. While building their nests, and dur ing incubation, they are extremely watchful and jealous of all intruders, while, in going to and from their nests, 'they are unusually silent. The nest is large ' and usually com posed externally of sticks, pieces of bark, moss, &c., and lined with horse hair, wool, and other soft materials.: There are gener ally four eggs, pale green, and more or less blOched with brawnish olive. - , During early spring, they are positively beneficial, their food consisting largely of insects. For these they visit newly ploughed fields, manure droppings, fallen leaves, etc. But they are most useful in destroying im mense numbers of young grasshoppers;- which abound as soon as the snow leaves the ground. In search of those,. they visit pasture lands and meadows, usually in small flocks, for greater safety; for even when thus engaged they are not safe from the farmer's gun. A little later, their real crimesCommence.' They have a special fondues° for corn, not only scratching it up from new planted fields, but, at a later day. pulling it up by the blades and devouring the grain:, Even at this time they consume many kinds of destructive larvae. If allowed their own way, however, there would be ; very little corn left. Even now, .in spite of all devices to drive him away or "destroy him, great loss frequently is oc casioned by ids depredations. Farmers naturally forget (if they' ever knew it) all the good work done by the crow in the spring, and wage war on the "black thieves." But the marauders are specially vigitant.at this season, and have their sentinels out on the tall trees. Their quickness in distinguishing a person with a gun is proverbial among sportsmen, and their knowledge of the power and range of fire-arms is quite as remarkable. But this knowledge has been acquired only by sad experience, !for in localities where they are rarely hunted, as, - for instance, along the sea-coasts of Maine and the British Pro vinces, where little or no corn is grown, and where their food is derived from the sea, they are as little suspicious of man as most other birds, and may be as readily-shot. enerous Donation. Among.the deeds left at the Recorder's office lately; Is one made by Mr. William Woolslayer, of the. Sixteenth ward, td the following pro' miuent citizens: A. B. Boal, Enoch Phillips, R. H. Smith, J. B. Meanor and Samuel McElroy, in trust for the pur pose of establishing. a Presbyterian church in rhis neighborhood. It is a lot eighty by one hundred and thirty-seven feet, and is located on Pearl street In the Bloomfield district of the above ward. The Board of Trustees appointed, by Mr. Woolalayer in tend erecting upon it a handsome church building, and allow it to be used by all do nominations until if nett. a time may arrive when they will be.able to establish a per manent Presbyterian congregation, when they will then transfer the 'flame to apy duly elected Board of Trustees of such or ganization. I This is a very handsome present and re fleets much credit upon the liberality of Mr. Woolalayer, -who is the oldest and wealthiest citizen of the Sixteenth ward, All who are acquainted with the wants of this fast increasing part of the ward will at once see the importance of this gift. Tha Board intend providing accommoda tions in the church building for a large Mia sion Sabbath School, which Is now being held in a large room in a private house, which numbers every Sabbath'from - one hundred and fifty to two hundred scholars. There is also going to be erected near the church building a very fine public school house, - which, when completed, will com pare very favorably with any in the city. These, with - other improvements the ener getic citizens of this wa'r'd contemplate making, will make it a very attractive ward. The ward is so lboatid that every variety of scenery can be found, from fine flat to rolling monntain,:and cool ravines can be enjoyed. List ot' Letters . Buchanan Pos Remaining in 22d, 1849.
