General Sheridan received a letter a f< w days ago, written by an Arrapahoe Indian to an imprisoned Cbeyeui e at Fort Augustine, Fla. The epistle ig so curious in its make-up that a short description will prove interesting. . The letter looks like a war map of Russia and Tuikey. The felljw who wrote it is an artist with the lead pencil. He tells his friend that early in the late Indian war his band struck off by themselves, crossed over into the British possessions, and did not retiirn until a short time previous to the Custer massacre And how do you suppose he describes the trip up north? Why, by a trail of half circle marks in imitation of tracks; ai d these chirograph:cal hoof prints go zigzagging across the country, and aero s a big sheet of paper, through Wyoming, Montana, British America, and finally ending on Beaver creek; three days’ march from the agency, in the Indian territory. The Custer fight is pictoriallv described by a collection of animals and redskins in a state of dire confusion. A crooked line with a pair of little mountain sheep horns represents the Little Horn river, while u large horn represents the Big Horn river. A drawing of u buffalo tongue stands sos Tongue river. An extremely rude sketch ot a beaver Crouched alongside of a black pencil line represents Beaver creek. The signs and characters used consli tute au interesting anil instructive study;

Tliad. Stevens’ Way. Pierce M. B. Young, a recent representative in Congress from Georgia, was a confederate general and a graduate at West Point. He came to Washington soon after the war, seeking to have his disabilities removed. He is a fine, mannerly fellow, and seems to have accepted the result of the war in good faith. He went to Thad. Stevens, and Thad. began to play with him, us he sometimes did with those he intended to make his victims; He said: “You are a graduate of West. Point, I believe?” “Yes, sir.” “Educated at the expense of the United States, I believe, which you swore faithfully to forever defend?” “Yes, sir;” “You went into the service of the infernai rebellion ?” “Yes, sir.” “You were a brigade commander in the raid into Pennsylvania which destroyed the property of so m; ny of my constituents?” “Yes, sir.” “It was a squad of men under your personal command that burned my roll-ing-mill?” “Yts, sir.” Young tho't that he was gone, but seeing that the old fellow had come into the possession of the last fact, which Youngdid not dream he knew, it was impossible to deny the truth of his questions. Thad. roared out, “Well, I like your d—d impudence. I will see that your disabilities are removed. Good morning.” And the next day the bill passed the house. Giraffes Plucking Flowers. INew York Sun.] The little giraffes in the aquarium iike flowers. They are unable to distinguish between the artificial and the real. Many a woman has had bunches of flowers nipped from her hat by these giraffes. On Monday evening a giraffe craned its neck over the side of his enclosure, and fastened its teeth in r~ elegant bunch of posies in the hat of a belle. The hat was pulled off, and the giraffe crunched it contentedly. The beauty screamed and darted away. The Usher rescued the hat, and returned it to the owner, who, looking at the length of the giraffe’s neca, exclaimed viciously: “I do hope he’ll have a sore throat.” When he was a young man he rushed into a burning building and gallantly dragged her out by the hair of the head. They were married the next winter, and now she rushes in and drags him out by the hair of his head whevever she feels like it.
