LOCUSTS AN FOOD*
PRACTICAL TEST Of THE MATTER OUT WEST.
Warrensburg (Mo.) News.]
Yesterday afternoon Messrs. Riley and
Straight determined to teat the cooked
locust question in regard to ICa adaptabil
ity aa food for the human stomach. Get
ting wind of the affair, and being always
in hasto to indulge in freo feeding, we
made bold to intrude onrselves on our
scientific friends. We found a bounteous
table spread, surrounded by the gentle
men named, accompanied by Mrs.
Straight and Miss Malloy. Without much
waste of ceremony there were five per
sons seated, and we were helped to soup
which plainly showed its locust origin and
itasted like chicken soup—and it wus
good; after seasoning was added, we
•could distinguish a delicate uiubhraotu
flavor—and it was better. Then oatue
fbatteroakes, through which locusts were
well mixed. The soup had banished silly
prejudice and sharpened onr appetite foT
this nest lesson, and battercokos quickly
disappeared also. Baked locusts were
then tried (plain hoppers, without grease
or condiment), and either with or without
aocompanimeuts it was pronounced an
excellent dish.
The meal was closod with desert a
John tbe Baptist—baked loonsts and
honey*—aud, if we know anything, we
oan.testify that that distinguished Horip-
ture character thrived on his rude diet in
the wilderness of Jndea.
We believe this is the first attempt at
putting this insect to its best use, aud
the result is not only highly satisfactory
to those brave enough to make the at
tempt, but should this insect make his
visit oftouer aud cause greater destruc
tion, future generations will hail its
.presence with joy. It will be jubilee
year, like niftunn in the wilderness or
•quails in the desert—food without money
.and without price.
Now, dear reader, you may shrug your
tfconlders and suiilo, bat henceforth we
tihall esteem grasshoppers as a luxury to be
classed with oysters, truffles, mushrooms,
etc. 4
As soon ns arrangements can be made,
an assortment of locusts will be sent to
8t. Louis, for a trial by the scientific
researchers of that city.
A Fund for Confederate Orphans and
Widows.—The reporter examined, on
yesterday, a proposition from Theodore
Hamilton, of Philadelphia, and a membor
of Lougstreet’s old corps, which was sub
mitted to Gen. Joseph E. Johnston, Pres
ident of the ./Survivors’ Association. The
object is for raising a ‘‘fund for the chil
dren aud widows of tho Confederate sol
diors.” The proposition of Mr. Hamilton
is to give tbirty.five dramatio perform
ances, by a company composed ol
tho highest order of talent, to be se-
lsoted in New York, six nights in each of
the cities of Savannah, Augusts, At
lanta, Macon and Columbus. A cer
tain number of tiokels are to be sold, at
one admittance to a performance,a fine en
graving and a chance at u prize of $10,000.
The plan was suggested to Mr. Hamilton
bv a gentleman of Macon. A copy of the
plan was shown to tho reporter by Capt.
John Millege. Captain M. also permit
ted tbe reporter to read communications
from several parties.notifying him of the
organization of a “Survivors’ Association
of Confederate Soldiers and Sailo-s” ill
their sevpral counties. There will be a
general meeting of these associations in
Macon during tbe State Fair weok.—
Atlanta Convtitution.
Boston, June 2.—Wendell Phillips
being oalled upon by your correspondent,
did not require the sppliostion of an in
terrogatory force pomp to draw out his
opinion regarding the “third term let
ter,” for he seemed to be entirely pro-
isred to disoonrse upon the subjeot, and
le did, and not only upon that but upon
what he terms the “issue of the present
time.”
Mr. Phillips ssid—I like the letter. It
does not ohsnge mv judgment, however,
whioh is that, all things considered.
Grant is emphatically the man for the
next President. I scout all this prattle
about eonoiliation. We babble like chil
dren about poaoe, before we have secured
uutioe; we extort each other to forgive
>efore tbe sinner has even professed re
pentance. Foreigners in the Senate
who never kuew .aught but what
on ' the surfaoe, of ns or onr in
stitutions, may ebatter nonsense; gallant
soldiers emigrating South may echo it;
uatives in highest office still may carry
this jolly pop from Southern oity to city;
careless editors may cry, amen; bnt the
fact remains that the white South has
never forgiven her oonquerer and never
accepted the first idea of the Declaration
of independence; tbe idea wbiob alone
justifies the coat and carnage of five ter-
riblo years.
THE SOUTHERNER TAMED.
The wild Southerner has been tamed; he
will never fight the flag again. The can
ning of the madman is left. Ho seeks to
write over the flag its old lie. Calhoun
taught, and every white adult in the South
believes to-day, that this is a white man’s
government. Though you bray them
with tbe postle in a mortar you will never
crush this folly ont of them. Heaven
forbid that I should do the white race of
the South such a foul wrong as to believe
otherwise. I respect their smoerity, their
icrsistent loyalty to oonviotion; I remem-
>er the long suffering,the faithful Cavalier
whose party ended only when its last
adherent sunk into tho grave. Though the
glorious Roundhead conquered and bad,
u the name of justioe and liberty, the
right to conquer, God and human nature
being hia allies, still all hooor to the stoat
English blood that never shifted sides
nor traded in oonviotions. I will not do
such discredit to the English blood this
Bide of the ocean as to believe that we
cannot show as stoat hearts here to-day,
spite of Generals, Senators, Vice-Presi
dents and oabaters in verne and prose.
The 8outh holds to-day the same souls—
unselfish, untiring, faithful to death—as
England did in 1000, 1688 and 1716. The
North will yet find her Somers, Hamp
den and Vane. Does blood here run so
thin that the stout oonviotion which in
England it took a hondreud yean to root
ont sdtls ont and skulks away in ten years?
•Those who think so do net know the
South. The men who followed Sherman in
the march to the sea, will they danoe with
WILSON ON BOSE LEAVES
bsok again? Yon who think so do not
know the North. .The personal ambition
or party indifference whioh killed the
Force bill revealed Northern weakness.
Congress showed its unfitness to deal with
the epoch. We needed a statute whioh
showed the nation equal to the hour, and
its wish to intrust the President with the
means to meet it. It is always danger
ous to trust men wholly. Better far to
aid, direot and inspire them by laws ade-
? uste to the orisis. When Congress re
used the Force bill, she left tbe true
men of the nation with one alternative—
we must take for President a man wha is
himself a force bill—that is Grant. I am
certain that onder no other man oan the
Republican party hope for snooess. If
we must be balked ana pot back let it not
be by the Republicans, but as England
was by the traitor James, who necessita
ted the revolution of 1G88. Johnson’s
treason in 1866 saved ns. Democratic
treason in 1876 may save ns again. A
Republican’s treason would be donbly
dangerous. With those views I demand
of Grant that be lead ns again to victory.
Blaine and Morton are strong men, but
they cannot carry the nation. If Grant
does not give ns the use of his name* in
my opinion, the Democrats will elect
their President. That means the white
South victorious, as I was ridiculed for
anticipating in 1866; it means oivil rights
trampled under foot; the Confederate debt
recognized and paid in part or in full; it
means compensation for the slaves whom
the war freed. Congress will disouss these
issues for the next four years The
North, with a sensitive pocket, may rally
and prevent the foil snooess of these
schemes, but the very discussion will
osrry down onr bonds twenty per
eent. in every market. I know
the objections to a “third term.”
I remember points of policy and single
acts of tho administration, aots to which
I could neither give sympathy nor sup
port, acts whioh were neither statesman
ship nor those of an honest man; bnt the
work of this era is to stereotype into
statutes and inexor^le customs ins prin
ciples which carried onr flag to tbe Gulf [
to blot from Amerioan civil life the dis
tinction of race; to make onr Ilepublio
oeaao to be a sham and onr citizen^ a
herd of hypocrites; to practice what onr
fathers have disgusted the world by
emptily professing; to make good the no
ble boast that onr flag everywhere pro
tects every citizen.
claim for General Grant that no man
in public life lins done wore than he has
to help on this time of deoent consistency
between profession and practice. I sup
port the man who made peace in New
Orleans rather than the committee which
traded it a wav. Tbe fate of tbe negro
is still the problem of our politios. There
is no public man whom I should foel per
fectly safe in trusting it with. Bnt com
pelled to choose, Ulysses Grant is, by all
odds, my choice for the next President.
If the superstition of two torms shuts him
off from tho race, I should witness, with
profound anxioty, the success of any man
who opposed the Force bill.
THE SECOND CHOICE.
A BLOODY DUEL AND SUICIDE.
Havana, June 7.—A duel took place
yesterday between Dr. Algernon Syd
ney Curtis, of New York, and Salva
dor Gortereal, a tobaooo merchant of
Havana and New York. The combat
ants had been intimate friends for many
yean, and lived together in New York.
Dr. Gurtis arrived here two weeks ago,
and was stopping at Gortereal’s house.
He atates that yesterday morning he was
awakened by Gortereal slapping bis faoe,
and acensing him of illicit connection
with his wife. This Gurtis denied, and
hot words ensued, whioh resulted in a
challenge to fight and its acceptance.
That afternoon both men proceeded
in carriages to Mariano, without
witnesses, and on arrival there dis
missed the carriages. Five shots were
firod by each of the contestants, begin
ning at a* distance of twenty feet, and
fired as they advanced. At the fifth dis
charge, Dr. Curtis was seriously wounded
in the hip, and fell to the ground, faint
ing from pain and the loss of blood.
Upon recovering consciousness, he said
he saw Cortireal reload his re
volver, place it at his temple, and fire,
killing himself. Gortereals body has
been brought to this oity. It is thought
he believed Lis opponent dead when ho
killed himself. Dr. Gnrtis is confined to
his bed by the severity of his wounds,
and is under police surveillanoe.

STRICT REGULATIONS—NO CLUE TO THE BOB
BERY—CLERKS SEABOHED.
Washington, June 7.—The Seoretary
of the Treasury to-day made a visit of in
spection to the cash rooms of the*TreaR-
ury Department and other rooms whore
money is handled, with a view of making
some alteration in the construction of tho
desks, Ao., for tbe better protection of
Government funds. The Seoretary gave
uotioe to-day that from and after this
date visitors will not be admitted to tbe
bureau of engraving and printing, the
vaults of the Treasury, or to any rooms
in the building in which inonoy is kept
and handled.
The detectives have not yet obtained a
olne to the robbery. There is sonio talk
of tho Treasurer’s offering a reward for
the arrest of the thief Aud recovery of
the stolon funds; but Secretary Bristow
is not yet decided to do so.
In tho reports of tho Treasury robbery,
it was mentioned that Mr. Wyman, tho
oashier, was tho first person searched by
tho doteotivos. It should be mentioned
in this connection, that Mr. Wyman vol
untarily presented himself for that pur
pose, ik. an example to tho dorks under
hib rli si go, who were also searched, that
being cuusidored by tho doteotives tho
first thing uecessary to be done.
INCENDIABISM,
WOULD-BE MURDER, SUI
CIDE.
St. Albans, Vt., Jane 7.—The house
of Henry 0. Greene, a farrnor, was de
stroyed by an iucendinry fire yesterday.
While the house was burning, Greene was
shot twice by Clifton 8. Weeks, a neigh
bor, who subsequently committed snicido.
Disappointed love, and tho belief that
Greene had influenced the object of his
affection against him, led to the tragedy.
Greene's wounds are slight.
The Books ortho Distillers.
Chicago, June 7.—In the U. S. District
Coart, before Judge Blodgett, tbe ques
tion of the Government seizing the books
snd papers of those persons whose die
till ones have been seized on the charge
of defrauding revenue, was argued. The
defendants were represented by*Hon,
Matt Carpenter,’.Sidney Smith, Leonard
Sweet, snd Edmnnd Jussen, snd tbe pros
ecution by District Attorney Wirt, Dexter
snd others. The Government claims that
these books snd papers are part of the
personal property of the distilleries, and
are therefore liable to seizure snd for-
fsiture.
Dsfenoe claimed, on the other hand,
that books snd papers are private proper
ty, and exempt under law—they not be
ing compelled to furnish evidence for
their own conviction.
Mr. Oarpenter closed for the defenoe
this afternoon, when the Jndge took the
matter under advisement.

Washington, Juno 4.—The Indians
were photographed to-day in a group,
loud huwevor deoliued,
Red Cloud huwevor deoliued, saying his
picture could be had by ttayiug him twen
ty-five dollars. The Indians aud Secre
tary Delano subsequently had a short
conference. The Secretary said if they
did not beliovo him, and do ns he advised,
ho was afraid they would hereafter be
lieve him to their sorrow. If they would
take the twenty-five thousand dollars he
would try and get twonty-fivo thousand
dollars more for thorn next winter. If
they did not, he would refuse to let them
have the privilege of hunting on Smoky
Hill Fork auy longer. Ho could not uf-
ford to havo the peace of the country dis
turbed aud the danger of murder com
mitted. A commission had been sent to
tho Black Hills to sec if thore whs any
gold thore. Neither he nor tho President
mew whether there was any thero or not.
If there was it would be impossible to
keep white people out. The Indians cannot
always restrain their young meu. Neither
caii we always restrain the while people.
If gold wus found thore, the Government
would pay them liberally for tho lands.
Thero was a portion or tho Big Horn
country that tho Iudiaus did not use, and
the Government would buy that at a lair
irico. He desired them to take all that
lad been said to them home t« their poo-
do aud obtain an answer And send word
mck to him ns soon ah possible.

never to steal anybody’s country
without paying for it. If you bnd tho
same sense of right wo could get along
well onougli.
Tho Secretary replied that ho had not
accused him or his poople of stealing,and
he did not want Spotted Tail to accuse
the great father of Rtrmliug from him.
We don’t expect to Ntonl their conutry and
we nro not going to Nond tho army

don’t give ns credit for our desire to do
them good.
Spotted Tail said he wanted to talk
about his agoucy matters before he wont,

Tho Secretary bore withdrew, telling
the Indians that they might tAlk all night
