I the ground, and moaning away the ? last moments of its existence. The animal was evidently very old, aud in I a sadly emaciated condition, so the r fact that the fanner immediately put. a bullet through its/'h^ad.: should rather be looked upon i as an not ol i compassion than otherwise; Just'"?.ji he was about to leave, be observed a round lump lipon the animal's siue, which so attracted his attention that ho stopped to examine it. Quickly- ? discovering that close under the skin ? was deposited a round, hard body, he i used bis knife, and brought to light a silver bullet such as was used in olden - times for the enclosure of secret des patches, lie carried this curiosity to his house, where, after considerable trouble, he succeeded in opening it, and found to his great surpriso that it contained a message written in cypher upon paper attenuated to a high dot grbe. Otherwise than that the papor was slightly discolored (hot sufficient ly, however, to obliterate the charac ters.) Neither the bullet nor what it \ enclosed bore any evidence of its late surroundings or of the strange vicissi tudes through which it might preyious ly have gone. Several men of science have carefully inspected this relic i t' the past, and are as. much at a loss to decipher the message as they are to * satisfactorily explain when and how ! the bullet came to be lodged in the side of the buck."

Names? Ilattie Ray mond and Jean Emerson. It seems tj be generally accepted, a that lJ:e signs of the times in the money markets arc confirmatory of the theorj' that the country is verging towards a steady and prosperous busi nesc era. The New York Evening Mail remarks that the feeling in Wall street is doubtless somewhat in antici pation of "the good time coming," and is not always controlled by good judg ment, but it indicates unmistakably the general conviction of our shrewdest judges of the signs of the times, that, the tide has at. last, begun to turn, that money is seeking investmjuts, add that confidence is coining back, we hope "to stay." That is the gener al aspect of "the street," as any one can find who is in doubt of the situ ation. For the first time since the panic, money i?> pouring into Wall street iu large quantities from inves tors outside of the city, who are ex changing Government bonds for securities that have the "promise and potency" of development in their value.
