A Honeymoon Scene.
Philemon Hayes and Fanny Ray had t
just three weeks married.
They sat at breakfast in their cozy dir
room one fine morning in summer, totally
fatuated with each other. Never such I
piness as theirs before ! The felicity of Ac
and his lady before they made the acqu;
tance of the serpent, was not to be mentio
in thc same breath.
They kissed each other between every
of coffee, and made a practice of embrac
at least twice-sometimes thrice-during <
ry meal. Just now they were speaking
disagreements. Some friends of theirs 1
fallen out and refused to fail in again.
" We never will disagree, will we ? Pi
dear V asked Mrs. Fanny.
"Disagree! will the heavens fall?'' retu
ed Phil, tragically.
" I sincerely hope not. It would be <
cidedly disagreeable," laughed Fanny ; " 1
iff thought we should ever quarrel, and hi
had thoughts towards each other, I should

ing up and upsetting the toast plate ou t
carpet, of which he was entirely oblivious

Fanny !"
" 0, how happy you make me, Phil ! I sh
try so hard to be just the faithful, loving w
you deserve. Now finish your breakfast dc
ry. The toast will be growing cold. Ai
Oh, Phil! did you notice Mrs. Smith's hon
new bonnet lust night? 1 declare! it d
stroyed all my pleasure in the music! 11
wish people who will wear such utitastcf
bonnets would stay at home from these d
lightful concerts!"
" So do I, Fanny ! I noticed thc ugly tbii
thc moment we entered the hall ! blue flo1
ers and pink ribbons, and she as dark as
Creole !"
" No, my love, the flowers were greer.
and blue look green to much alike by gas light
" I know they do, but I noticed it so pa
ticularly that 1 could not be deceived. Blue
especially light blue-looks fearfully on
dark complexioned person."
" So it docs, Phil, I quite agree with yo
dear. But the dowers were not blue, the
were green. I saw them at Mrs. Gray's she
before they were purchased."
" My dearest Fanny, of Course you thin
yourself right, my love, but I have a vei
good eye for color, and I noticed those flow
ers with great attention. Blue anemom
with yeilow centres."
" Green hibiscus with white centres, m
dear Phil. Very pretty fur a light skinuc
woman, but not fur a brunette!"'
" Why, Fanny 1 how absurd ! As if
could not determine a color when I studie
it half the evening !"
'.But it was by gas light my love. 1
would look altogether different by day Ugh
If. was such a pale green."
"It was such a pale blue. I remember,
thought of the sky before a storm."
"And Ijhojjj_ht o?_tbe sea. it was_rj_?M]j
a sea green7!'' "< ? ...
" Whv, Funny ! ridiculous ! It was a sk
blue!" *
" How you do contradict rae; my dca
Philemon. It was a very light green/'
" And I insist it was blue !"
"Do you mean to tell me I lie?"
"I mean to tell you, you arc mistaken!''
" Which amounis tc thc same thin}.' JM
"You make the application, Mrs. Hayes.'
"Mr Philemon Haves!"
? Fanny !"
" I say il was green, sir !"
"And I say it was blue, so there !"
" You arc a wretch, Phil ! a real mean
heartless wretch !*'and Fanny pushed bael
her plate angrily.
" And you are an opinionated,' self-wilier
woman !" and Phil, ia his agitation, upset bi;
coffee, scalding the cat's back and himself a
the same time.
"Thc deuce!" cried he, rubbing his rec
fingers with bis handkerchief. " I wish IV
never seen a woman !"
" What's that sir ?"
" Confound thc women ! They're a cursi
to the world !"
" You brute !" cried Mrs. Hayes, now
thoroughly incensed-"take that!" and seizing
the plate of mullins she look aim at Phil'i
head, but being a woman, her aim was not. sc
accurate a? it might have been, and the platt
went through thc window smashing ia th<
new tile of Fritz James Jones, who was pas
sing; and the muffins were scattered in wile
confusion about the room.
Phil was indignant. He laid his hand on
the poker.
"If 1 did not scorn to strike a woman-1
he began.
"Oh, strike!" exclaimed Fanny, " it wil!
only be in place with your other conduct
Don't let any notions of honor restrain you
because you never had any."
" Fanny, beware ! you may try me loo far.'
" FU g? home to pa, that I will. You in
human monster, you!-I'll be divorced frorr
you this very day. So there !" and tho plat
ter of ham made a journey after the mullins
Just at. that moment, Phil's Uncle John, a
shrewd old fellow, appeared on the scene.
He surveyed the group with au anxious
twinkle of the eye?.
" What's the matter, lran,iy ] Anything
gone wrong ?" he inquired.
"Gone wrong ! Matter cuough ! Oh) Uncle
John, he's a wretch, and he set out to strike
me willi the poker."
" And she threw a plate of muffins and the
ham at mc!"
" H-'s a monster, Uncle John. I'll be di
vorced from him this very day. He's worse
than a savage !"
" So he is," cried Uncle John, entering
warmly into the spirit of the thing " So he
is"-stripping oil' his coat-"ami I'll settle
the thiup at once. You stand back. Fanny ;
I'll give him such a thrashing as he'll be like
ly to remember. Striking his wife- with ?
poker, indeed ! I'll reclify malters ; and
Uncle John grasped the long-handled feather
duster and flourished it threateningly around
thc head of his nephew.
" There, sir. take that ! and that ! and thai !
exclaimed he, bringing down thc toathrrs on
the shoulders of the amazed Phil. "Fanny
my dear, 1 11 not leave a bone of him whole."
Fanny ? round blue eye? had been growing
larger and larger-.-and now her indignation
r burst.
"John Hayes!" screamed 6be.; you're n
heathen, and an old meddling vagabond, i/Ct
r Phil alone! He's my dear, dear husband,
and you've no business to touch him. He's
an angel ! He. never intended to strike mo.
Be still striking him, or you will be sorry !"
and Fanny seized the broom from behind the
door and prepared to do battle.
" Stand back !" cried Uncle John, ho is a
monster ar.d deserves death. The man that
?t would threaten to strike a woman ought tc
be hung."
ll Fanny's eyes blazed-she flew at Uncle
Juba with the spite of a tigress, and the way
the trio went round iho room was worth wit
nessing. Unelo John alter Phil with thc
duster, and Fanny after fipcle John with thc
broom.
Phil mado a spring for the window, bul
' i there vms a whntnot in the way, and get
? ting his leg entangled in that, he brought the
j[ whole concern to the floor, ambrotypes, books
vases., rare china, and a hundred cherishec
curiosities, ali were involved in direct rain.
Phil went down with the otherthings, Un
de John stumbled over him, and Fa
saved herself by seizing the bell cor
brought her two servants speedily on
Of course they took Phil aud Um
for house breakers, ?md if Fanny's <
tion had not been enforced by sundry
of the broomstick, the consequenci
have been serious.
Thc first moment of calm was seiz
by the young couple to embrace cac
"My angel Fanny!" ?
" My precious Phil !" and then fol
series of explosions like the bursting
ries of beer bottles.
And Uncle John left the house dur

How thc Constitutionality ol'thc Ci
ton Tux is to bc Tested.
A few facts, concerning a grand sehe
which has for its object the recovery of
tax that lins been paid uprj.n cotton, Iii
come to my knowlodgc within the last f
days, which no doubt will bc cf considera
interest to thc public, from the f.ict that th
is agrc-at principle and an immense arnot
of money involved. Herschel V. Johnson,
this State, ?3 one of tho principal parties ci
cerned, aud is iu company with other proi
ncnt politicians ami lawyers.
One of tho influential Northern friends
hided to by Mr. Johnson in the circular wb:
he is scattering over thc North, is Char
O'Counor, of New York. They already ht
about |ive millions of these claims for I
refunding of tuxes paid upon cotton by p
tics in this State alone, while their collengi
in Alabama have upwards of twenty millie
and confidently . expect to have eighty m
ions collected together by the time Congr
convenes, when they will present the m
ter, with all cf its merits, and offer a bor
of thirty millions to carry it through,
the event of success, they will return foi
millions to the tax-payor and retain tho oil
ten millions tor services rendered. Shoi
this scheme provo successful thc result c
readily bc foreseen, and thc entire amount
revenue which hnd been accrued from tl
source will have to bc refunded. The ci
, pf cotton raised this year is larger, no dou
than any yield ?jtieo 1861, and that fact, w
i the increased foreign producion, has so
, duced the price (it only being worth 13
I to day) that many planters say they will
utterly unable to meet their obligations, a
? seem to anticipate nothing short of bankru
cy and financial' ruin, ns, in almost every in
stance, their crops havo been pledged to thc
cornmissijn houses for the payment of ad
vances made carly in the season, upon
estimates greatly in excess of the present
prices.
A Word to Planters.
Thc present price of cotton will not remu
nerate thc planter fur thc cost of its produc
tion. There is little or no hope that there
will be such an advance in the price for ho
next two years as will warrant the Southern
planier tn continuing its cultivation. It is
worse than foll}' to look, for a repeal of thc
present odious and oppressive tax. Even if
it were, repealed, thc price of the staple to
day, with the tax off, would not moro than
pay thc actual cost ol its production, leaving
the planter no profit on the capital invested,
and no remuneration for the time, labor and
trouble bestowed in managing his plantation.
It is evident tbr.t the Southern planter must
I make up his mind either to abandon his lands
and emigrate, or bc must change thc charac
ter of Bis productions. ' We say abandon his
lands, because, for many y-?ars to come, cot
ton lauds will be of little or no value, and if
the planters, in any considerable numbers,
should emigrate, the large body o'' lands thus
thrown in thc market would depress the price
so low as to make it impossible to realize
anything from their sales.
But thc great budy of thc Southern plan
ters cannot emigrate. The ties of blood, of
family, of country, and the no l&ss mighty
and controlling tin of povcri}', will retain
them in their present homes. The Southern
planters, as a class, are too poor to remove to
other lauds, and, therefore, they must cast
about for such n change in their production!
as will give the best promiseol future support
and prosperity.
We take it for grauted that very few r.f our
planters believe- that they can, with the
present labor and at the ruling rates for cot
ton, continue its cultivation on a very large
scale. This being ^conceded, we beg them to
remember that this complete change in the
character of our agricultural productions must
bo in some measure prepared for in advance.
If planters wait until the next spring, or even
until the first of the year, before they com
mence to make arrangements to diversify
their productions they will lese thc benefit of
a whole years' time in seeding three of tho
most important and useful of thc cereals,
which, iu our judgment, must, to a great ex
tent, supply xhi.'. place Of cotton in the new
system. We refer to whe.it, oats aud rye.
We know that many of our most experi
enced and successful planters arc of opinion
that wheat cannot bc successfully raised in
thc great cotton belt of the Sta'.c. This
opinion is founded entirely on isolated in
s:auces of failure which have come under
their observation and experience. This is a
gi eat mistake. We do not believe that there
is any better wheat ?and iu the whole country
than the large and extensive bett trawr-ing
the State from cast to west, through its geo
graphical centre and formerly known as the
bind; belt. Wc know that heretofore wheat
ha-, not been successfully cultivated on these
lands to any great extent. But the fault, we
insist, was not i;i the lum! or the climate, but
Lp the careless and iraperfect manner in whipf
Ihelrtiid was prepareu arm sccucu. uTTGeTai
ly the poorest linds, such as would not pro
duce cotton, was selected for wheat. lu most
inst.incc? there was no previous preparation,
such as was givOH to cotton, the grain b-.mig
sowed on the rough and neglected ti! lield.s.
and rudely and imperfectly ploughed m wi:li
a turning plough. Such crops geucraliy
failed. The only wonder is that failures-were
nol even more frequent. Even cotton treited
in this way would not havo paid for ils culti
vation.
We insist that the cotton planters of Geor
gia should set about nt once tho preparation
of at least one fourIh of their best land for
wheat. Clean lbs* land nicely and plough it
deep. Seed a sufficient quantity per acre, and
harrow it well in. This will iiv-ure heavier
cp>ps. But the gi cat point is tu begin umo.
lu a le v days it will bc (on late, especially P-r
wheat. Bye and oats will do very weil sowed
later, but. will make much heavier crops il
put in c:ii?y.
Tim planter who stubbornly refuses to ace
tho (lowlife] of cotton-raising, and blindly
persists in il.o continua!ion ol' its culture, is
rowing tt) the winds, ami in good limo will
certainly reap the whirl wind. That chis?, we
know, will not put ,; th-ir houses in i-rder"
hy a timely aud judicious change ol products.
They niu-l have another year'.-. bitter experi
ence with p ?or mules, -'.nd starving stock, and
hurgry .stomachs, and low-priced cotton. Hut
tuo.-o who would avoid a repetition, next year,
ot the anxiety, ami care, and mortification,
and failure of the present season will eschew
cotton.-Chronicle & Sentinel.
TKN NEKIWKS KII.I.KD.-The Louisiana
T}a?>!isl, published at Mount Lebanon, La.,

A gentleman just from Texas, wc under

having occurred on lil lek Bayou, near Jef
ferson. Wc learn (hat he was near the farm
where thc facts look place a few days aftci
thc occurrence : A fanner had a number ol
hands employed under written contract fot
one-third of thc crop. He was from home
when they commenced gathering, and on rc
turning found thal they were laking half in
stead of a third of the crop. He remonstra
ted, and told them of the contract; but thc-)
became enraged, and finally made an attack
upon him, and he, in defending; shot dowr
four nf them with a revolver. Going to town,
ho reported the facts to a Federal officer
who sent an armed force to investigate ant
set things right. Thc noprocs defied ant

Negroes in Virginia.
e Charlottesville Chronicle, a Conner
vativc, and not anti-negro paper, says :
r The negrees in Virginia have set the seal
tp.-their doom. There is no longer any peace
The question DOW is who shall occupy and
rule the territory between forty and thirty
two degrees north latitude-the blacks or the
whites. Every conceivable effort has bsen
made here to harmonize the two races. Eve
ry form of overture has been made to the
blacks by the whites. Every appliance was
resorted to, to carry thc election. All has
been in vain. Drilled like an army, manoe
uvred like a body of disciplined troops, obey
ing au order from the central league like a
sign from a marshal's baton, th 2 negroes hare
^delivered their vote like a concentrated broad
side. Perhaps it is best to bring matters to
a crisis at once. Let it be developed at once
what negro suffrage means. Th? lardier thc
revolution goes, the more violent will be the
recoil. The North will not balieve until they
pee; and they will see when thc Soothers
elections arc finished."
;"The Richmond Dispatch, n paper which has
been in favour of Congressional reconstruc
tion, says :
p Every one- who has not been made ac
quainted with the thorough system of or
ganization through secret societies of thc ne
gro population of Virginia, will be amazed to
3e? with what unanimity they havo votul
Jjljfrry where for thc Radical nominees. There
r^f^^??! tin ^iir?CT?ri qmWnirjit thom. Not J^r"
I slightest respect has iieonpa'.a TO -prrarrnffn
? tics. They have voted as unanimously for
j the most inconsistent, corrupt, aral disreputa:
bio mon, na they havo fur I Lus* in better
Standing. There is hardly a single one of
! their nominees who ?3 rnspected in respecta
j ble communities, but there arc some who are
j very much belter than others. Their black
; constituents show, however, no greater de
ference :o tbe.-c (ban they do to all others.
li A dreadful feature of this atrocious game
is thp complete alienation of thc negro from
the white pe ?pie with whom ho has been
raised and with whom he must live.
i; The returns fruin every county show that
they arccompletely banded together as one
man in a war-yet only political-against
th? ir people and their own best intcreets. It
is thc saddest feature of these monstrous
times. Our citizens find that they have a
b ?dy in their midst which is wholly and
blindly antagonistic to them. No divisiou
amongst themselves-no appeals to reason
from without-have made thc slightest im
preston upon their solid union, li is us pain
ful as it ? j incomprehensible."
The Korfolk 'Mrginian, enc of thc most
respectable papers in the South, says:
4: Tiie intolerance manifested by thg nc
groes here yesterday towards one of their
own colour who ha-; l!ie manliness to vote
" the white man's ticket," RS bo called ii,
shows the effect of thc teaching they receiv
ed from their Radical taters. All the sava
gery ol their nature was aroused. They hunt
ed and hounded their intended victim through
the streets and beset him until, like a stag at
hay, he turned upon his tormentors arid gave
them n taste ol his metal. They still threat
en to kjll him, and bjs life is really in jeo
pardy. And (his is the sort ol f/cedom
we arc to have under Radical rule and suf
frage. Well did Mr. Doolittle say that tie
Radical Congress had 'organized hell in the
South.' ?
THE SOTKKIOR COURT OP DELAWARE DE
CIDES TUE " Civil. RlCHTS ACT" UNCONSTI
TUTIONAL.-A special despatch, of date 29lh
ult. to thc Philadelphia .-l//t', from Dover, Del.,
says :
"The lall term of thc Superior Court began
here yesterday, a>;d to day a case of much in
terest, as it, involved the constitutionality of
the Civil Rights' act, carno up. It arose in a
c tse in thc,Quarter Sessions for an assault and
battery committed upon a negro prosecutor
? I by a white man.
*'; There is a statut'! in this State tl(at where
while persons, who may bc competent wit
nesses, are present, no negro can bc exam
ined as a witness as to what tonk place. This
was the case here, and, the defendant's coun
. j sel raised the question on thc competency of
? : tho prosecutor to the assault and battery.
, i After argument, the judges delivered the
. ' opiniens seriatim- Chief JusLicc Gilpin and
i ! Justice Wootton held the act, so far us it at
1 tempts to interfere with the rules of evidence
1 or mode of procedure in the S:ate courts, ab
. solutely void. Justice Wales said, in view of
I j some decisions, and also of his own imprcs
; stans, he was inclined to hold a coulrary
? I opinion ; but ou fuller argument this might
; j be changed.
, j lt was therefore ruled that the statute of
Lithe State remained unaffected hy .thc Civil
I ! Rights Act j ia otho- wowls, that it ia null
ll. and .void so far as it attempts to interfere
i i with the judicial systems of the States."
Noisv BOYS_Thc editor of the Cleveland
Herald, who was probably himseif a "good
boy," lakes up the cudgel in defence of noisy
" : boys, as follows 1
1 Noise is a safely valve, physically and mor?
j i ally. Noisy boys seldom aro the bad boys of
, a village; tho quiet, demure, reticent, a * ill
\ J boys, are those who sneak around dark cor
lj , ners, and slip into the back rooms of tho vil
i l?ge nuisance, thc grocery ; who rob melon
1 patcher jift g^teg off the hinges, ??hayo. gorses'
j ?ails, and on moonlight nights trip good pco
I pie up by a rope placed acro?3 thc walk. A
ii j noisy boy, usually, is a frank boy, overflowing
I ! with animal spirits, ready to hop, skip-and
e I jump, play " gould," tag, snap-thc-wbip or
v i leap frog. But such a b jy is not dogging in
i- . and out of back alleys ; such a boy does not
II f creep ont ol his chamber window to tho kitoh
0 j on goof, thence lo .the ground for a hight
y i expedition, after the rest of the family arc
? asleep.
.Noise- is not " good" for headaches, noise
disturbs weak nerves, but noise steals noth
ing, noise sets no barns on fire, noiso never
gambles ; therefore we say, il boys do nothing
wcrse than make a noise, for humanity's sake
do not confiuc them for that.

The Elections in (.-?c o rpi a.
Another State has been enshrouded with
the sombre pall. Georgia, following her sis
ter Southern States-Virginia, Alabama and
Louisiana-has boen swept into thc black
Ridical vortex. Briefly, we may regard thc
entire ten unreconstructed Southern Srates,
with possibly one or two exceptions, as forced
by a secret and overwhelming revolutionary
iuHucnce to a common and inevitable fate.
They are all goiug ono way. They are all
bound to bc governed by blacks, .?purred on
by worse tiran blacks-white wretches who
dare not show their faces in respectable white
society anywhere.
This is the most abominable phase barba
ris? has assumed since the dawn of civiliza
tion. It was all right and proper to put down
tho rebellion. It wes all right, perhaps, to
cmaueipate the slaves, although the right to
hold them had been acknowledged before.
But it is not right to make slaves of white
men, even though tbey may hive been former
masters of blacks. This is but a change in a
system of bondage that is rendered the more
odious and intolerable because it bas been
inaugurated in an enlightened instead of a
dark and uncivilized agc.
The Romans in the height of their tri
umphs, banded thc government of conquered
kingdoms over to the white races who peopled
thom-never to negroes. It appears, then,
that the Radicals are receding from tito con
dition of civilization which marked the era
even of thc old Romans. They arc creating
black governmeuts in thc South, which will
not only destroy the industrial interests of
that section of the country, but overturn all
tho established safeguards of civilized society
and lead to utter barbarism ; to implant upon
the soil of our own South, the civiluation
seen in the interior of Africa-human slaughter,
slavery in its most hideous shape, mental ig
norance and Paganism.
Incited by creatures liko Hunnicult, in
Richmond, the blacks in their ignorance are
made to believe that not only thc 'day o?
jubifec' has come, but that of agrarianism or
a common distribution of property also.
They are now crazy for thc promised spoils,
and thc acts of outrage daily chronicled, with
threats of personal violence, and secret but
peremptory orders of expatriation against ob
noxious whites, illustrate their infatuated
disposition. This thc Radical party must be
held responsible for. Their net? ?re in vio
lation of the wisc councils of Genends Gnnt
and Sherman, who have reason to be as com
petent judges of what is good for thc newly
enfranchised race as ali thc Radicals put to
gether.
The whole Northern people are appealed to
to defeat this atrocious attempt to surrcnoV?r
a large portion of the country to a debased
race-an attempt fitly characterized by a
Northern Republican print to be one intended
to circumvent thc laws of God."-New
York Herald.

^A. ahiui Aimil. "---"r'f*~ -
A public man sometimes becomes so public
that his private affaira command a publicity ,
which i: would bo an affectation of the press
not to notice. Heneo.I semi you the following :
Not two years ago, the long known bache
lor, diaries Sumner, became a Benedict. A
highly educated and, in many respects, an
accomplished man, of good manners, and bet
tor appearance, naturally enough, he stood
high among the ladies of Boston, and he had
no difficulty in winning the hand of a widow
(from one of thc P. F. V.s of Boston,) who
sacrificed no inconsiderable jointure in marry- .
mg him. Thc honeymoon had ali the appa
rent charms that honeymoons usually have,,!
when Mrs. Sumner ?ent with her husband to
Washington, and new scenes eusucd.
Among i ?io accomplished men composing
the Diplomatie Corps in Washington was
Biron Holstein, of Prussia, whom thc Prus
sian King had attached to the Prussian lega
tion theruj to spy out ?he land." Naturally
enough, he courted the acquaintance of
Charlo.- S'.imi.cr. tho. Chairman of the Com
mittee of Foreign Affairs in tho Senat?-who,
at n dinner puny, introduced his wife lo the
Barun, a-id who WHS placed beside b:-r at din
ner. An acquaintance ensued, and a friend
ship followed, such RS naturally and honora-^
b!y spring i?p between tba sexes, with kindred
tastes and aspiration?. The Baron attended
to ihc lady in 'matinees and soirees, and in
other public places, and occa ional ly assorted
her from the Senate, where both had been to
hear thc Senator spaak. Mr. Sumner, be
coming displeased with this acquaintanceship
-it cannot properly be called int.macy
wrote a letter to Baron Holstein, in which, ?
while complaining cf it, report says he insin- <
uatcd something not honorable to tho wife.
Thc Baron wrote back a letter, in which, in i
substance, Lo said, there was no cause of of- .
fence whatever-he lind been polite lo Madame,
aa ho was to ol her ladies Of similar accom
plishments, and nothing had ever happened
which propriety or good taste forbade. Bul
if thc Senator was nut satisfied with that, he
was ready to give him any such galisfa&tion
as a mau of honor demanded,.
The correspondence was the beginning and
end of purt first-but Mr. Sumner, report
says, then became cool to his wife-and the
lady and the Baron became moro reserved in
their intercourse. Then Mr. Sumner, as
Chairman of our Committee of Foreign Af
fairs, wrote to the Prussian Minister of For
eign Alf tirs, the distinguished Bismark, that
if he (B.) would recall the B iron, he (S.J '
would be obliged. The adroit Bismarck yield- 1
ed lo tho potential position of the American j
Chairman of Foreign Affairs, and the Baron
was recalled to Berlin.
Mrs. Sumner neat became acquainted with (
Jthis correspondence, and naturally enough
.was indignant beyond ail power ol descrip
tion. Uer indignation naturally rested upon
that part of the correspondence which, it was ;
alleged, touched her honor. The end of all
this i?, that Mrs Sumner has gone her way
to Europe-their common establishment in
Washington being given up, and another is .
taken by thc Senator for tho winter. j
There is some scandal afloat beyond all
this, relating beth to the Senator and the j
ladj-sueltas may be expected from early ,
denouements in such a marriage; auair-but ?
the i"!-*?- of the reports in Boston is such jvi J
I pend you. What I have written is in ev
erybody's mouth, mid it may possibly bc er
roneous In some: of the details, but in sub
stance probably correct. I send it to you !
for publication, because what, if anything is ,
wrong herc, had better at once bc set right, :
to stop tho tongues of the thousands tb^t are
making moro out cf a fgw facts.
Ax Ot.n INSTITUTION".-One of tho old es
tablishments of our city is that presided over
so successfully by our neighbor J. A. Van
Winkle, who is now in receipt of his winter
supplies of clothing, boots, shoes, hals, otp.,
com prising a very largo, well assorted and
excellent stock-all of which ho is prepared
to dispose of on reasonable terms to his-nu
merous customers, city nnd country. To
those who know Mr. Van Winkle (and who
docs not in this section ?) lhere is no occa
sion for us to commend him to their attention.
Should there be any of our country readers
who do not. ail that' is necessary for them to
do is to cab and see him. Ho is prepared to
meet all requirements and accommodate all.
