or two of patient waiting for his "valuable watch
and gold chain" to arrive, he begins to see that he
is a fool. He bites his lips in silence. He is like
the victim of the showman who advertised to show
an animal "like a horse but was not ahorse, having
the head where the tail ought to be, and the tail
where the head ought to be." On paying his
quarter, he was admitted to a stable in which was a
mare with her head at the rear of the stable and
her tail tied to the trough! The victim departed,
knowing himself to be sold, and by his silence allowing
everybody else to be sold too, lest everybody
should laugh at him.
So it is with our jewelry Dupe. He knows he's
a fool, and doesn't like anybody to be able to tell
| him so. He bites his lips till they bleed; and is
just as apt as not to bite at the next bait that is
dropped to him from honest Yankeedoodledom,
before six months roll over his head.
And thus it is that these rascals live. Men are
fools, and these rascals know the fact, and live by it.
Does not any body in his senses know that the
above circular is a fraud?? that those men cannot
honestly do what they offer to do, either one way
or the other ? Do us the favor to observe that the
circular must be returned, so as to deprive the dupe
of every vestige of evidence of any promise, provided
he should be such a lunatic as to seek indemnity
for the fraud by law.
Take a safe rule as your guide ? whenever you
cannot see how a thine of this kind can be done hon
estly, take it for granted that it is done dishonestly.
There is very little guessing about it
All these humbugs and rascalities have been exposed
in the public prints scores of times; and yet
fools won't all die.
There is a little book called The Routes and
Rogueries of Xeic York that exposes maybe a
hundred tricks and dodges (like this) to make money
dishonestly. It costs only a quarter, and every
body who lias anything to do with great cities, or
with whom great cities have anything to do, would
t do themselves a favor by reading it We may return
to this little book at some future time when
we have space to say a few words about it

Brigade.
We promised last week to mention some of the
errata of this volume which have been pointed out
for us by the author himself. We now proceed to
do so.
On page 7, near the bottom. Col. Gregg's given
name should be Maxcy, instead of Maxey.
On page 31, line above the bottom, it should
read "unfinished R. R between Alexandria and
Thoroughfare Gap," instead of "Manassas Gap
railroad."
On page 55, the two Greek quotations are outand-out
typographically murdered. They should
be, (using Roman letters), respectively, enteuthen
exelaunei and entautha erneine.
On page 101, instead of "Austerlitz," read
"Wagnun."

way.
On page 193, top line, insert a dash between "us"
and "thoseand, in the thirteenth line, instead of
a comma, between "year" and with," insert a semiI
colon.
On page 210, about the middle of the page, instead
of "Hunter's," read "Grade's."
On 213, fill up the table of casualties with, [First
regiment,] Killed 1, Wounded 4, Total 5; [Fourteenth
regiment,] Killed 2, Wounded 6, Total 8;
and change the Aggregates to Killed 11, Wounded
60, Total 71.
On page 216, third line from the top, insert
"was" between "I" and "sent," making the phrase
read "I teas sent."
Besides these, we observe several others of minor
importance of which we beg leave to mention
a few.
On page 28, the seventh line from the bottom,
the date "10th," should be "20th," according to
our Notes. ,
On page 48, "Lieut. W. L. Leitzsez" should be
"Lieut. W. L. Leitzsey."
On page 61, "Capt. A. E. Haskell" should be 1
"Capt. A. C. Haskell."
On page 83, "Lieut J. P. Pean" should be
something else, as there was no officer of that name
in that regiment
On page 103, "Capt W. P. Conner" should be
"Capt. W. P. Cromer."

FROM ARKANSAS..
Monticello, Ark., January-4,1867.
Messrs. Editors:?Permit me, through the columns
of the Enquirer, to address a few words to
my old Temperance associates in York District.
When I left Yorkville in the Fall of 1857 to seek,
a home in the West, I voluntarily pledged my honor
to the members of the "Division" to which I
belonged, that I would remain true to my obligations,
and continue to advocate the principles of the
Order. This pledge I have faithfully observed
through all the trying scenes, which it has been my
lot to pass. I am still battling in the same cause,
and am to-day, a more determined and zealous advocate
of Temperance and moral reform, than when
I left you. Ten years experience and observation
has convinced me of the great utility and efficiency
of Temperance organizations, and taught me the
duty we owe society in this respect. My early deuntinn
tn flip eanse nf Temneranee was stimulated
into action, and kept alive, mainly, by individual
cases of drunkenness and mania-a-potu, which
fell under my professional observation ; it is now
from a thorough conviction of duty, which we owe
to suffering humanity and to the race which we
belong.
The general demoralization and prevalence of intemperance
throughout the country, is saddening
to the heart of the Christian and philanthropist,
and calculated to discourage the advocates of temperance,
but it must be met with an energy and
seal commensurate with the magnitude of the evil.
Our "ancient enemy" has again sallied forth from
tiis hiding place and renewed his assaults with desperate
determination, but if the scar-worn veterans
of Temperance will buckle ou their armour and
meet him with the same spirit and determination
they once did, the monster will soon be banished
from our land. From information received from
my old home, I fear York has departed from her
ancient glory, and forfeited the enviable position
which she once held. Notwithstanding my destiny
has been cast among a different people, I still feel
a deep interest in the welfare of my native District,
and I earnestly appeal to the old Temperance associates
whom I left behind, to strike hands with me
across the "great father of waters," and once more
pledge fidelity to each other and to the great cause
of Temperance.
I do not know whether you have a Temperance
organization in active existence in your District, or
not My object in addressing the friends of Temperance
in York District, is to propose to them a
new Temperance organization, Southern in its origin
and designed to be Southern in its operations.
In the black train of evils inflicted on us by the late
war, intemperance stood prominent and conspicuous.
It swept, like a tornado, over the whole
^ 11 1 J X A. *A_ 1
country, ana an classes seemea to yxeia to us iniiuence.
A few Temperance friends here, determined
to unite their efforts to stay the rushing tide, which
threatened to engulph all in ruin. We at once discovered
the deep-seated prejudice which existed
against former Temperance organizations, in consequence
of their Northern origin. We went to
work to get up something free from this objectionable
feature, and the organization which we now
propose for your consideration and adoption, is the
result of our labors. This organization has been
in active operation, in this and adjoining counties,
since last May, and works admirably. Many of the
members once belonged to the "Sons of Temperance,"
and they all unite in saying, it excels that organization
in beauty, impressiveness and efficiency.
A new feature in this organization, is the introduction
a of Lady Officer, which not only enhances the
novelty and interest, but has proved quite an element
of strength to the order. We have ten or twelve
Councils in active and efficient operation, numbering
about 400 members. The Grand Council was
organized and held its first session at Montieello,
in September last. Its semi-annual session will be
held in Hamburg, Ashley County, the last of
March. The present Legislature of Arkansas has
granted a charter, and bestowed on the organization
all the rights and privileges belonging to similar 5
institutions. This gives the organization vitality (
and a living existence, and I am extremely anxious
to see the Order introduced in every State in the j
South, but I confess, a little pride, in having it <
transplanted first in my old native District. Who,
among my gentleman and lady friends in Yorkville, ,
will take the initiative and organize a Council. <
Ten or twelve ladies and gentlemen are sufficient j
to organize a Council. Any Deputy or Grand .
Deputy of the "Sons of Temperance," who has
faithfully observed his pledge, may organize, but j
it would be more proper to select a reliable tern- ]
perance man, who is willing to join the Order, to 1
act as Deputy, and on application being made, the ,
G. W. A. D., of "the Temperance Reform" will
commission him to organize Councils. If you wish ?
to organize a Council, get ten or twelve names (or j
more) write to me, enclosing fee, ($6) six dollars for i
Charter, Books, Odes, &c., and also name the per- ]
son selected for Deputy, and I will forward every- (
thing necessary for the oomplete organization of the ]
Council.
T A _i P il 1.1 * V P
i am aware mai many 01 me no Die spirits 01 your
District, who once battled manfully in the ranks of
Temperance, have fallen to rise no more; but oth- j
ere have been permitted to pass through the "terrible
conflict," whose duty it is to renew their al- '
legiance to the cause of Temperance and let their i
voice be heard in behalf of suffering humanity. In
conclusion, allow me to wish my friends, a happy
new year, and the YorkvUle Enquirer a complete ]
and brilliant success. J

Murder of Colonel Steedman by Negroes. ]
? One of the bravest, best, most popular, most 1
honorable, most amiable citizens of Lexington Dis- J
trict?of all South Carolina?was Colonel Marcel- '
lus Steedman, leader, for some time during the late ]
war, of the Sixth South Carolina Volunteers. Since 3
the close of the war he has been living on his farm ]
on Edistoj and been engaged at the same time in 1
merchandise. His dwelling and his store were un- ]
der the same roof. On Tuesday night, the 8th \
instant, he walked out into his piazza, and, as he \
turned to go in, was shot by some persons unseen. (
As he fell, he cried out His wife rushed forth. ,
dragged him in and bolted the door. He survived
but three hours. The wretched and bereaved woman,
with her two little children^ spent the whole
night alone with the corpse, fearing to give the al- arm.
Immediately upon the shot being fired, there ]
was a hubbub of voices, and Colonel Steedman re- 8
cognized those of two negro men, formerly slaves ]
of his father. This, with their names, he disclosed j
to his wife before he died.
And sure enough, on the following day, the two
monsters were arrested in Aiken. They made full J
confession. It seems that they had followed Sherman
when he passed through Lexington, and had !
not returned thither until a fortnight before the
murder. This fortnight they had spent in watching
their chance. They had no gnidge against their :
former young master, but knowing that he was in
business, they killed nini with the design of getting 1
money and robbing the store. They intended also J

The sales of tfie week, under the inlluence
of this state of things, have been quite g
limited, and amount to about 1750 bales of Upland I
Cotton. The receipts are somewhat larger than
those of the proceeding week. The following sum- _
inary of the week's transactions will show the

a half cent; sales al?out 300 bales; Middling I
Uplands closing at 33} to 33c. "j9 lb. On Saturday -
