•,v wish to enter a new field of speculation,
will give a short history of the case as I heard
Some few years ago a gentleman of Mary
Uml conceived the idea that an immense fortune
could be realized by the rearing of black cats
for the sake of their skins. The principal ob
stacle to the plan was the impossibility of
keeping the animals together aud preventing
them from wandering olT, ns their activity, ns-
si'ted by the penetrating qualities of their
daws would enable them to defy any enclos
ure; and, at last, after much thinking, the
idea suggested itself his to mind that water was
the only barrier that tho cats would not pass.
Jieiug in possession of an island that appeared
to be just suited for the experiment, he found
*11 obstacles to tho success of his plan remov
ed, and set about organizing the affair.
He employed an agent, and put out a circu
Iir, in which he stated that he gave so much a
head for every black cat that could be goi.
This advertisement was circulated through all
the counties bordering upon the Chesapeake
hay, and the negroes got hold of it. In a very
short time all the black cats through those
counties were stolen by the negroes and sold
to the Agent, who had depots established at
different convenient points. Old ladies missed
their favorite cats, and mourned them ns dead
—but tbe negroes, incited by the price offered,
spared none. In this way one hundred and fifty
black cats were collected and transported to
the island; aud the agent took up his abode
therelike another Robinson Crusoe, as superin
tendent nnd guardian of the cats. Those ani
mals appeared to enjoy themselves vastly when
first put on tho island, and spent their time in
either playing with each other, or hunting
birds or ground mice: but at last their game
failed them, and, having no other supply of food,
they became hungry and desperate, and roam
ed about the island in large bands, yelling for
food. They at last became dangerous, and
the agent wrote to his employer a statement
of these facts, accompanied by a request to
know how ho was to feed them. lie wrote
back to the agent to set a couple of negroes to
work to catch and open oysters for the cats.
Having the alternative of oysters or starvation
be ore them, they very naturally chose the form
er; but, not being accustomed to such unnatural
food, a species of cholera broke out amongst
them, and one-half died.
This calamity drove the survivors mad. and
they either committed suicide, or, in a fit of
desperation, swam to tho main land. At any
rate, they disappeared, and were never heard
of more.
The agent then wrote again to bis employer
to acquaint him with the result of this new
treatment, which news was accompanied by a
modest request for the payment of his wages
—for this cat experiment occupied a space of
upwards of a year. Tho latter was so indig
nant at the conduct of both the agent and the
mu, that he flatly refused, and the consequence
othis refusal was a suit brought by the agent to
recover his wages. This suit has been defend-
id for some years, and during its progress I
uave beeomo acquainted with the facts.
As far ns the theory of the speculation went,
it was a magnificent idea. The skin of the black
Mt is worth in Boston 50 cents. The cats, I
ura told, cost the agent just that sum. It was
supposed that they would increase exactly ten
fold per annum. Then say, first year, num
ber of cats, 150; second year, 1,500; third
resr, 15,000; from which there couldbe ob-
tained 5,000 toms for sale, bringing $2,500,
sod leaving 10,000 stock cats remaining,
which, at the above ratio of increase, would
five the fourth year the enormous sum of 100,-
cats upon the island, after which, all the
surplus, over and above the last number, were
m be caught in box-traps, and the skins sold
*° the Boston furriers. This stock of 100,000
cits were to produce 1,000,■000 per annum,
uud the revenue consequently to be derived
:; ;-m the island would be in the neighborhood
^#300,000 per annum,— Washington Union.
Tlic Bankrupt Bill.
The provisions of this Bill, offered in the
baited States Senate a few days ago, by Mr.
iieojamin, of Louisiaua, are represented to be
substantially as follows;
It is a general bill, including individuals,
r-rporations, chartered banks, and any asso-
jmtiong of persons authorised to issue notes,
‘•‘•U. See. It will provide for voluntary and
^voluntary bankruptcy, and will be retroac-
Uv « in its operation, but this retroactive feat-
we i v ;|| ij e guarded so as to exclude all who,
‘frequent to January last or any other time,
W made assignments, in contemplation of
* russage of » bankrupt law, which gave
Htfcrenco to oue creditor over another, and
tbe bankrupt in such cases shall not receive a
~*cliargc unless with the consent of a majori-
Jj" of his creditors who have uot been so pre-
rrr ctl. The iuvoluntary bankruptcy applies
Reises where tho debts exceed two thousand
“disrs, aud tho person declared bankrupt is
•“titled to trial by jury—all transfers of pro-
of any kind, for tbe purposo of giving
creditor, endorser or other person any pref-
tr vucc or priority over generalcredi tors, to be
*ucd for gucii amount as assets of tbe bank
ruptcy.
"»h regard to banks and other issues of
fwpt-r money, they are to come udder head of
'U’olttutary bankrupts; and, in addition to all
,.' c liabilities which attached to individuals,
may be declared bankrupt for tLo non
payment for ten days after demand of any
’ D ote, or other liability; all the expenses
as in my judgment was best for my own and the pub
lic interest, and without any accountability to auv
body. And yet for the exercise of this right, my
natno iias been dragged into the public prints, and
my action wantonly and indelicately canvassed. It
was ray purpose to pass by this unauthorized use of
my name unnoticed, but the splenetic article of E.
J. Johnston, in tho last • tftate Press," demand
reply.
As Mr. Johnston comes before the public blab
bering in most unmanly vein, over the loss of office,
(no, I beg pardon, over the loss of his salary,) I am
provoked by his wanton, reckless statements, to give
to the pnblic tbe time reasons of his removal.
Mr, Johnston held the offices of President, Secre
tary A Treasurerin the Gas Company for three
years, aud was removed very much against his will,
at the late election, by vote of tbe Stockholders.—
And why was he removed t Mr. Johnston has
brought the matter before the people, and I proceed
to answer.
The Invitation.
[iri'in the Ballad of Sir Eustace Gray.)
BY GEORGE CRAKFE.
Pilgrim, burden'd with thy sin,
Come the way to Zion's gate,
There, till mercy let thee in,
Knock mid weep, and watch and wait.
Knock !—he knows the sinner’s erv:
Weep!—lie lovr-a sinner’s tears:
Watch!—tor saving grace is nigh:
“ nit!—till heavenly light aopears.
Hark !— it is the bride groom's voice;
Welcome Pilgrim to tbyiest;
Now within the gate rejoice,
Safe and seal'd and bought and bless’d !
Safe—from all the lures of vice.
Seal'd—bv signs the chosen know.
Bought—hv love and life the pre,ic
Blessed—the mighty debt to owe.
Holy Pilgrim! what for thee
In a world like this remain T
From thy guarded breast shall flee,
Fear and shame, and donbt and pain.
Fear—the hope of heaven shall fly,
Shame—from glory’s view retire,
Donbt—iu certain rapture die,
Pain—in endless bliss expire.

Owing to a preference by the then incumbent City

for Stock in tbe Company, without which the works
could not have been built, was, that the Company
would furnish a good light for the Streets, at, or near
cost. This was urged upon Mr. Johnston in and out
of the Board, and yet for two months he was hig
gling with the City Council, putting burners on the
Streets stuffed with Cotton, of which, as a Director,
was ashamed, and moisting all the while, that we
must have a margin for profit in our contract with
the City. Boardman and myself took the other side,
insisting that «e carry out in good faith the under
standing on which the City subscribed for Stock,
and moreover, as we had a liberal set of consumers,
should give them a liberal light to go to Church,
visiting or shopping. So obstinate was Johnston
about it, that the Aldermen began to talk about shut
ting off the Street Lamps, and one of the most pro-

courso by sundry influential citizens. To avert

about my paying telegraphic despatches, nnd for

How small—how characteristic! Well, I suppose
if I had sold consumers smoke and wind, perhaps I
might have made better dividends. But my first du
ty was to give the consumers a good light, and to
spore no pains or expense to do it, and hence I did
not hesitate to telegraph and bring Rosin on the
Passenger Train to keep the works going, when our j
Factors disappointed me in sending Rosin. And I
tell Mr. Johnston, I shall continue to give the con
