"minb got, vot a cqmrrryt" ' My D?ar Spirif~Oonsider my surprise when I found the follo wing beautiful lines rejected by the Congress of Poets?I became dejected?and they were suspected. The lines were written to be sung by one who had never seen the country, and xyas expected of course to knDw all about it.- The poets were unanimous in my favor, but "Fiddlesticks" carried the day. What can be more beautiful than our country?except it is this poem.?

Dodge, the violinisr, who paid #625 fbftta firat choice of a seat at Jenny Lind'g Boston concert, appears to he a man of infinite afrit; *?d the New York Spirit of the Times fejls a laughable story of hi* taking in .three Mississippi gamblers some years a?o. Dodge v ; came aboard the boat, protending to be a half wilted.Vankee rustic, whereupon the confeder. ates resolved to fleece him ; and accordingly Up4n. some iircumfo'cutioo, they induced him to nlav at a <mme called uCh* ntrinir Jack." The Spirit of the Times thus gives the story denouement, which is all For which we have room : ^ ycou! jook yore," says Dodge. moving * lowly and side whys up the (aide, "I say yeou, .1 don't know nothing about keerds. but iVh wHHog to risk a heap of money on that 'ere game." ** ^Very well?I'm with you, stranger." exclaimed Strong, snapping Hi* fingers; "there's ptenty more money where this came from, and iVn willing to risk all I've got in the world, that I can, by repeating a few short sentences in hng Latin, change the Jack of Spades while ?j?:? l-i-_ r? _t, OIHJerjrwur iiatiu, mid ?rau?\ ui ?uw Hrtft y?u*cm*t leM hy the mdw of filing, when the Spade takes its departure !" HLoek a' here, old flax head!" exclaimed Brown, apother of the uonfederates, swelling out his large form tn its fullest dimensions, and handing up to Dndge ?* if for a fight. " Look ' here, Mr. PJjilgarlici Jon are interfering in 9thef people** business ! I have set to that man's pile myself and I don't want no man tu interfere." **I ax your pardon, ifljiiitrutle," ways Dodge. .';**VerJr..well; you may jest bet once," ways Brown, looking at Dodge very closely, "for I seeymi are not & sporting man. You may bet once, if you wish"; mind, only once! a* it's my PHni! J IIUI ilierrtiirri o? ? j^mciai iiiih^, jhu had better not interfere with *lranger#' games for you might get into a muu !" "Wah yew, it 'pears to lie?so now go on irkhtheaAozr, for 1 want lew make some mo ne? allfired bad." rays Dodge, taking bold with both hands of what appeared to be the leg of the Jack oT Spades. "Very well, then," says Strong, turning the pack o*er, .-*fl?ow pull the card, and keep it hot. torn side upwiird." Dodge pulled the apparent Jnck of Spades out on the table, holding his left hand over it, while with the right he took offhis bell crowned*hat, And sweeping the card off between the palm ofboth hands, had the appearance of placing the drawn card into the top of the oldhea. Ver, but, in fa?*tv only into the lolds of old bandana, upon which he placed his doubled fist, re. marking at the time, "By gjnger! efyeou kin git that air Jack o' Spades eout of that air hat by way of yeour Latin, 1 hope I may be stuffed to death with biled unyunsl" While the party were in the highest state of frolic and excitement over the verdancy of the victim. Dodge took from his pocket a jack-knife, and opening it witb his teeth, held it over his bat, and taking out the bandana, which held the card he had drawn from the pack, he jabbed the blade of the knife clear through the other card and hat, and into the table, exclaiming, "Dang my buttons, ef I keer for the hat?I'll jab her anyhow ! cause, if I make a hull lot of money I kin buy a new hat, can't I ?" While Dodge was holding on to the knife, "J .. if U? a.niintaH arnrv minitta fknt aiiU J1A/I\lii? as u un r a piwivw v ij * ?<? *? * <be hat would take wings, (he trio could hardly keep in, hut ii wa* too good to spoil, so they only winked to one another, as much as to say, "A sure thing of it!

The rrowd smoking something extraordinarily rich, gathered around ihe parly, and revealed by their anxious faces, that r"rry one aboard had now become deeply interested in the reault of the professional skinning. "Now, theft," nay* Strong, looking the victim sharply in the eyes, and holding up his right arm, while he repeated in slow and measured tones, as solemn as the High Sheriff at a public execution?" now then, my Iriend, prepare for the miracle: 'Now look oat for tricks that's strange? Hocus?pocos?presto, change!" "I'll he ker walloped to death with cabbages, old feller! if that air keerd is changed any. bow ? W, Jl ? .14* ~ ?"? '*P I'" *M ...-y.y 1??" .* v*?. il?Wg_- v ~ .r**t 1 ?

Suiting the action to his words, Dodge delib. eratply drew from an insid- vest pocket, an old greasy wallet, and taking therefrnni ten one hundred dollar hills, on a Philadelphia hank, held litem in his hand, and exclaimed, "Well, neow, veou feller! pfyeou're determined to throw away yeour motley where ycou don't stand no chance a winniu, why jest pttfl eout yemrr doygh!" Dodge'had meanwhile hepn gazing intently , In the hat, and a person not acquainted with | the peculiar twinkle ??t his large eyes, would havp sworn that he had seen nothing else for the Inst five minutes. " Cap n, I want y<>u to hold ?he*e 'ere thousand dollar*, and a* a man of honor, in the presence of these 'ere passengers, sen that fair plav is did lew a stranger." ' I would rather have nothing to do with the affiiir,' replied the Captain, "hut, if yon wish for rne to hold the stakes, I will do so, and call upoh my passengers to see that everything <? honorable." "Well, Captain," exclaimed Strong, in a voice loud enough to he heard by all present, "there's a thousand dollars in current bills and gold to coverthe Yankee'* pile." "See that it's genewine. Captain, and no geouging." "All right," replied the Captain, "and now, gentlemen, plen*e inform n;e loud enough f<r all to hear, the precise character ofthe betr" While Dodge's attention had been drawn off by lh? prospective figbt, Strong cut tho Jack of Spndea direclly through the centre, with his jack-knile?bid the legs, and placed the head part evenly over the head ofthe Jack of Clubs. ? ika "lit AAitt% ?/\ In Oil ma mud!" i??ri mitt i.ui ? i ?"? ? ? appearnnces, lh?? leg? of the Jack of Clubs belonged to the heid of the Jack of Spades. "You see that i* the Jack of spades," *nid he, turning to Dodge. "Is that air spot ger.ewine!" says Dodge, wetting his finger and touching the spade at the ! head of the Jack. " You find it so, don't you ?" pressing it close with his thumb' to prevent its moving. "Well, that air chap there, what's got red whiskers and big watch-chain, and my own self what don't want to hev it called bettin,' puts tip in reour hand one thousand dollars each, and ef that air keerd in that air hat with that air knife jahbed through it. is the the Jack of Spades, the tew thousand dollars w mine, bur if tlint air keerd. in that air hat, with tha' air knife jabbed througH| is the Jack of Clubs, then the tew thousand dolrarsw bis'n-*ain't that right, yeou feller?" - " * ? .? fi _lr _ J " t hat is perfectly right, gentlemen, repnei* Strong, drawing n hand acmsR hi? month to hide a laugh, and edging around sideways, for he could hardly keep in. "Ye*. Captain, the Yan. kee'a statement i^orrect,." The idea of a ^rdant nutmeg Yankee put tingnpa.tljougand Hollars on the nut.throat game of"Changing Jack," was so extremely ludicrou* that the crowd could only hy the greatest exer. tion, refrain from yelling. Strong and Brown very alyly performed a few mysterious gyration* with the figures, toch a? imitating the rutting of the throat, a rope around the neck, and a dive into the river, three very common ways of corrmiifing suicide, and loo often adopted hy young adventures from the North and East, who blindly stake their all alter billing into the hands ofthese Western river chaps. Smiling at the earnestness .and nnbounded confidence of the heartless cut.throats, whose slightest movement bad not escaped his eagle eye, Dodge merely remarked?"Let thpm laff that wins; there's Ipw side* to all jokes; tew sides to this keard, and teiv sides tew all your mouths tew laffeont of, so here she. comes.'* Drawing out the knile and turning over the card, to the astonishment of the entire crowd, it was the Jack of spades! As the Captain passed the money over to Dodge, the lower jawsofthe disappointed sharpers felj about a fool and they almost simuhane ounly exckimed? "Jewed!" "Yanke'd!" "Bit!" The crowd, who were hound to have a good time any way, and more especially now that the joke was so much richer than was expected, were in a collapsed state?they yelled cheered, and shouted until the cabin fairly shook again. The Captive Daughter of Mrs. White.?The St Louis Republican publishes the circular of the Commissioner of Indian Affairs addressed : to D. D.

White. The Commissioner Btates that Congress hav-1 ing appropriated fifteen hundred dollarA'or the redemption of this child, he is anxious that the money shall be so expended as to give full effect to the benevolent intention of that body. "From the latest information received upon the subject," he says, "it is believed that she yet remains in captivity among the Apaches nroner. or that mixed band termed "Iaeellares." which for years past, have infested the vicinity ; of San Fernandez de Taos, the country between it and Bent's Fort, and the Santa Fe road near the settlement of new Mexico; yet it is possible she may have been sold by her captors to Indians of some other tribe.
