We translate from a German sketch
of American travel the subjoined ac
count of an incident alleged to have oc
curred on a Mississippi steamboat a
short time before the war.
I ascended the Mississippi, says the
writer, on a steamer on board of which
were Judge J and General K
of Pennsylvania, with both of whom I
was slightly acquainted.
"A hard set, these Natchez men,"
said the Captain, who met us on the
cabin stairs. "There's some of them
down in the saloon playing a high game.
How men can be such fools I could
never see!"
"liet's go down and look oi awhile,"
suggested the judge.
In the saloon we found four men seat
ed at a table, around which a crowd of
spectators was gathered. The four were
the "heavy players."
The game was poker, and the money
changed hands rapidly. We had not
been looking on lonj when one of the
plavera, a middle-aged man, who I
learned was a cotton planter, let his
last dollar against t'io hand of one of
his antagonists. The latter showed four
kings, while he had only four queens.
He was "cleaned out," and rose as
though ho were going to leave the table.
"Are you broke, colonel," asked one
of the men.
"Dead!" was the laconic reply.
"Never mind; I'll lend you."
"No; I can make h raise, I reckon.
Here, Pomp."
"Here, mussa!' responded au old ne
gro, as he- emerged from one. corner of
the saloon.
"Bring that gill and her youngster
here, that 1 bought in Natchez. Wait
a few minute, gentlemen; I'll raise
some money."
The old negro went on his errand and
soon returned with the girl and her
youngster. The "girl" proved to be a
stately mulatto woman about thirty-five
years old. Her "youngster" was a fine
intelligent looking boy eleven or twelve
years old, whose complexion showed
him to bo much more nearly allied to
the white race than the black
"Here, gentlemen," said the planter,
as they entered, "you see the girl and
her boy two as fine niggers as you can
find anywhere. I paid eight hundred
dollars for them yesterday in Natchez.
Who will give me six hundred dollars
for them?"
"Will you sell them separate?" naked
some one
"No, can't do it; promised not to.
The girl swears she'll take her life if she
is separated from her boy, and her old
master said that he was sure she'd keep
her word. But don't you all see that
the girl is worth more money than I
ask for both of them? Come, who'll
give me six hundred for both?"
The planter waited a moment for a
reply, and then said:
"Well, I must have soma money.
Come, what say you to a raffle thirty
chauces at twenty dollars a chance?
Out with your cash, gentlemen. The
first on the list has the first throw!"
This proposition created a decided
stir among all present. The three
players at the tablo led ofl' by taking
threo chances each. Their example was
followed by the spectators, and twenty
chances were taken as rapidly as the
planter could write down the names and
take the money. Then there was a
slight pause. Tho planter himself now
took two chances, and he was followed
by his three fellow-plajers, who each
took one chance more. Finally threo
more chances were taken by the specta
tors, when the planter cried out:
"Two chances still, gentlemen! Who
will have them?"
General K whimpered something
in Judge J 's ear, and then went to
the table and laid two ten dollar gold
pieces on it.
"Name, sir. please?"
"Never mind tho name
Put it down
for tho woman "
"Eh what! for the girl herself?"
"Yes, certainly; let's give her a
chance."
"All right. One for Ninette. And
now "
"That's for the boy." said Judge
J , quietly, as he laid twenty dollars
on the table.
"Good! bravo! bravo! cried the plant
er and several of the bystanders. "One
for Tommy, which makes the thirty.
Now, gentlemen, let's see whom luck
favors."
The dice were brought and the throw
ing began. Each chauce entitled the
holder to three throws.
Tliirty-six was the highest thrown un
til the holder of the eleventh chance
threw. He scored forty-two. Then a
less number was thrown, until number
twenty-one scored forty-nine.
Tho excitement now became intense.
Forty-nine was hard to beat; the high
est throw possible being nine sixes
fifty-four.
Again aud again the dice rattled in
the box, until it came to number twen
nine. "Come, Ninette, it's your turu now."
As tho poor woman came forward, her
hands crossed and pressed convulsively
against her breast, if was truly painfiil
to witness her agitation,
"Won't the gentleman who took the
chanco forme please throw?" she asked
m a low, tremulous tone.
"No; letyour boy throw," replied the
General; "perhaps he would have more
luck than I."
"Come, Tom," said the planter.
Tom came forward and picked up the
uox. x ue woman pressed her lips firm
ly together and clasped her hands, as if
in prayer. The boy trembled like an
aspen leaf, but shook the dice, and
threw three!
For a moment he stared at the dice
as though he could not believe his eyes,
then ho put down the box and stepped
back, pale and dejected.
"Come, Tommy, throw again," urged
the planter.
"It's no use, master; I couldn't throw
forty-nine now."
"True, true. But you have your own
chance. Throw that."
"Certainly," said Judge J ; "that
one was your mother's. Now throw for
vourself, on the chance I gave you.
Have a stout heart, my boy, and may
Heaven smile on you."
Again the boy returned to the table
wd took up the box. He pressed his
lips together and did his best to control
his trembling limbs. Not a sound was
t be heard in the salooa tut the rat
tling of the dice. For a moment every
m" Kpmd to hold his breath.
He threw.
"Two fives and a six sixteer !" said
he planter, putting down the number
while a murmur of satisfaction ran
.hrongh the crowd.
One of the bystanders gathered up
the dice and put them in the box, and
the boy threw again.
"Two sixes and a five seventeen!"
The excitement now knew no bounds,
and the "bravos" resounded on every
hand. The bov, as he took up the Dox
thrnw fnr tha third and last time, was
as nearly colorless as it was possible for
him to be with his yellow skin.
Out rolled the dice, and up came
three sixes, which made fifty-one!
"Tommy, my bov, l congratulate
you!" said the planter, "lou are your
own and your mouier o uimki. "i
the necessary papers. Captain, and I
will sign them. These gentlemen will
be the witnesses."
I will not attempt to deserile the
scene that followed. In the general
satisfaction that followed, one of tho
roughebt-looking men in the crowd pro
posed a aubscription for the freed ne
groes. The proposition was received
with such favor that in les9 than five
minutes fifty dollars were collected.

When to Catch Sainton.
There are times and seasons for sal
mon fishing as for all things. But all
seasons are not alike. Nor are all
places. The Vest time to fish for sal
mon, where salmon are to be fished for,
is tho first hour the water is in condi
tion; that is, as soon as the spring fresh
ets have subsided, and the water fallen
back into its natural channel, has be
como freed from the surface rubbish
washed into it, and sufficiently settled
to render your line visible to the eye of
the fish. This time varies on different
rivers, according to their length, their
volume and the character of the soil
through which they flow. From June
to the middle of August salmon are
gamy and muscular, wherever found,
whether one or fifty miles from tho
ocean. But the pools most coveted are
those in closest proximity to salt water.
Salmon are at their best when they be
gin their upward journey. The fresh
element in which they find themselves
seems to give them a new life and frisk -inoss,
and when hooked they fight with
a strength and fierceness not exhibited
in the same measure afterward. A
twenty-pound salmon fresh from the
sea gives you tho play of a thirty-pound
fish taken weeks after he has made his
way far up toward the head waters of a
fifty or a hundred-mile river.
This fact, however, is not only per
ceptible to the novice, but the sport
furnished by the capture of a salmon at
any oint in a river, or at any stage of
his sojourn in fresh water, is so errandlv
exhilerating ami so full of the intensest
excitement that it is a matter of but
trifling moment where a fish is struck so
long as the angler strikes him. But the
season is important. The earlier weeks
on any river are to bo preferred, not
aiono because the hsh have more vital
ity, but because, as a rule, they are
more abundant. V ith an unerrincr in
stinct, which is as mysterious as it is
wonderful, they seek the rivers where
they were born upon tho return of
every spring. If the rivers are in con
dition for their ascent, they begin their
jouruey at once. But tho rivers are not
always m this condition when salmon
first come to them; and if they aro not.
they wait their opportunity, and then
move forward with the regularity am
steadiness of an army under marching
orders. Hence they are ordinarily
found in greatest numbers at the first
rush, and they are most fortunate who
aro duly placed at favorite pools to bid
them welcome. j ataxy for June.

tic kinds have been in constant use, dui wim wo
advent of the latest in this market, " Avena" or
Oaten Grits, which has been thoroughly and sat
isfactorily tested, has merits superior to all, and
is rapidly filling a want long felt. By the pro
cess by which it is made, there is a sweetness
and purity of taste uneqaaled by anything ever
introduced; it is entirely free trom bitterness,
and cooks light, making it not oniy paiaiaoie,
but creates a desire for it. It has received flat-

and was awarded a prizo at the Centennial Exhi
bition. Altliough out two years since nrei intro

sal that every retail dealer finds it prontable to
handle.
Those who have used it here, one and all spy
that " Avena " is one of the moot delicious
breakfast dishes, when served with cream or
milk and sugar, and altogether a great acquisi
tion to our bill of fare. ' Avena is manufac
tured of selects Oats, in the form of "Grits "

nourishing and healthful in the extreme. It
lias been thoroughly tested by physicians, and
by them highly rec mmended.
u he hull of any grain is indigestible, therefore
it stands to reason that " Avena" would be more
readily digested than any oatmeal or wheaten
Grita could possibly bo, and would, therefore. lo
more healthful and nourishing. Bv the peculiar
process of manufacture, all the moisture is
thoroughly evaporated irom "Avena, ami in
cooking, it absorbs, of course, a large amount of
water, so that one iound of "Avena," proiicrly
cooked, will go as far as two pounds of oatmeal;
theretorc, although costing a litue more appar
ently than oatmeal, "Avena" is more eeononi
icsl and really less expensive. It does not get

jJgThe success of the San Francisco Chronicle (Daily
and Weekly) is unparalleled in the history of journalism on this
coast. It has the largest bona fide circulation. Its advertising
patronage is greater than that of any other journal, ft js
most popular paper. It has a potent influence, as shown by
the many reforms of local abuses which its bold, persistent and
able exposures have caused. It is the most brilliant, fearIcsS)
enterprising and complete newspaper printed on the Pacific
Coast. It is the cheapest paper. It is a first-rate family
paper. It is a first-rate story paper. It is a first-rate agricul
tural paper. It reports the fashions for the ladies and the
markets for the men. Its Boys' and Girls' Department is a
most attractive feature. Independent in everything, neutral
in nothing". Always the friend and champion of the people.
