The .United States had not long sup- pressed the slave trade. There were plenty still of lowland planters, with money in- both pockets, ready to buy whatever of black ivory" other men would fetch in. Iiatte, the Louisiana pirate, kept up the business of such fetching in. His haunts were no great ways from the Bowie habi- tat. Moreover, young James was in the way oi`. coming upon the pirate whenever the business of board rafting took him to New Orleans. He was too shrewdly Amer- ican not to grudge such falr1 prots toa pack of foreigners. In company with his brother, Rezin Bowie, Jr., and two others of like adventurous minds he undertook to get a fair sharing in it.

IJIIUDU \Jl-LVLUIL IJJ UIJU UV I-ID- One of the results of the payment of big bounties was the coming -into existence oi; a class known as bounty jumpers. " The various bounties and gratuities toward the end of the war rarely aggregated less than $1,000 per recruit, and a great many hard characters took advantage of this national, state and municipal liberality, by enlist- ing, getting the money and desertlng at the first opportunity.~ - It is on record that some of these men jumped, their boun- tiesas many as 20 times, each time clear- ing from $1,000 `upward. Generally the desertions were eifected at the state camps, where recruits were herded until called to the front. Sometimes, however, the` boun- ty jumpers did not get away until they had been sent to regiments in the field.` Uusually the deserters left singly, as op- portunities arose, but once in A awhile many would make a simultaneous break.

On An . 81, 1864, 450 recruits for the First New ampshire cav- alry, under command of Major Cummings and guarded by a company of the Veteran Reserve corp's,~ arrived in this city by spe- cial train from Concord. They had all been paid their big bounties the day be- fore and were to sail from` this port for Washington on the United States trans-V sport steamer Constitution. Arriving in the old Boston and Maine station at. 11 . o'clock in the morning, they were taken under'oonvoy by a detachment of troops fromtlie Beach'Btreet' barracks and a de-_ tail of police and started on. their march . Ins `Ila.-ntlunur urban`? mnnn I1`-In nnntihitfnh VU gun ll tau.` Buculug us an. Money was `needed to begin. Bowie sold his land to get it. Then the four entered into treaty with Latte. He sold them sound and likely blacks off his siaveships at the rate of 01 a pound. That made the average price something like 8140 the head. In the open market the blacks would fetch from $500 to $1,000 each. But there was another and a better chance of . gain, which the trading crew were quick to seize upon. Under the laws then stand- ing all Africans brought in in violation of ` the statute were conscated and sold out of hand, one half the price going to the authorities, the other to the informer. Bowie and his comrades `made a practice of informing upon themselves; then when . the slaves were seized and sold they bid them in, pocketed halt the money they paid and found themselves free to oer their purchases wheresoever they chose, for the blacks were now lawfully within United States boundaries and a commodity as staple and as marketable as cotton. fl... on-nd-, -can nnnnernnesajnnknw nun` ' When the olvil war _broke out and the call `in the north wentfoi-th'for"' voi`x'1`n"- teers, no bounties were paid, and nearly 1,000,000 men volunteered with no more pecuniary inducement than the regular` army pay. After a time, however, volun- teering languished, and to stimulate en- _s listments bounties were oered by the na- tion, the state and the cities -`andytowns. This not briugingtorward recruits in suf- ficient numbers, the draft was resorted to. Drafted men were paid smaller bounties or none at all. and this fact sent into the service` as volunteers many who were lla- ble to oonsoription. . - 11.... .1... treason Asm-.na n-ma whnn nhln. 016 W Uuuuumpuuu. Men who were drafted often, when able, procured` substitutes, paying at rst 8100, than 3200, then 8300, and finally, as avail- able substitutes " grew scarce, much larger amounts. Many_ci_ties and towns obtained thevrecruits needed to fill their quotas un- der the various calls for troops by enlist- n ment in other localities, as men who were willing to enlist wanted -to be credited to the places thatwould give them the most money. The procuring of men to serve as substitutes and to make up- deficient quotas grew into a business of itself, and a very protable one at that. Substitute ; brokers quickly appeared in great num- '- bers all over the north, and `they made , enormous prots by_ agreeing ._to iill quotas at so much per recruit, providing men whom they had induced to enlist on -the ` paymentot amounts muoh- smaller than , those oeredvby the towns. - l\~... t\` 61.... ounanll-is A9 tho run`-nnnnhl-. t\" `sin U\ \I \IIl- VIICI.

At the wharf. two men broke away and jumped overboard, and the guard fired at them, wounding one so badlythat he was easily captured and killing the other, who immediately sank. It is hardly necessary to add that the steamer did not linger at the wharf after` her unruly passengers were aboard. i ` = In the course of the afternoon ten of the deserters were arrested by the police.

At present the old inn is supported with huge props and the lower part in- oased in scaolding. This should be enough to raise an alarm among those who y to the defense of historic build- ings, for Jack Straw s Castle, it is well known, has been frequented by some of our most famous celebrities, past and pres- ent. Here Dickens came for a well cooked chop and a bottle of good wine after I ramble on the heath. Washington Irving introduces the inn in his Tales of a Trav- eler," and it has always been a hostelry beloved of artists. Here, too, the old courts leet were held. As a matter of fact, the ancient race of the Castle hotel" is to be preserved, but the interior will be entirely changed, and the charm of the old inn will have passed away. The low rooms and bar will be replaced by loftier rooms and a modern bar. There must be many who have pleasant recollections of good dinners at Jack Straw s Castle after breezy walks on tho heath, and many will mourn over the inevitable changes. that modernize old oities.-Westmlnster Gazette.` ' Every sense must be" on the alert and the active interest of trlends enlisted in the cause, and whenever it is prudent to do so the subject of autographs and man- uscripts should-- be introduced, especially with new acquaintances. `Things which others would pass by may be important to the autograph hunter.

Common sense rules in dressand man- ners the same as inany `phase `of our lives, andthis our young men should learn and 'understand, writes Edward Bok of What Makes a Gentleman in The `La- dies Home Journal. A man's manners are not exterior; they emanate from with- in,.from himself. Experience and observa- tion are the only teachers he can seek and use. Etiquette books are useless to him. A young man's progress and favor` in the eyes of others does not-depend upon his being ostentatiously `correct in manner, movement and speech. His strongest and most lasting hold upon the respect and condence of people comes from some- thing deeper. He must not be boorish nor slovenly norvheedlessof the feelings of others. It is his duty to carry himself well according to his best instincts and not by rule as laid down in etiquette` books. lltN_ __lA.I_ _ _-_'__.__ ._-__._I- _`l_-.....
