"GO IT ALONE.1
BY JOHN 0. SATE.
There's a game mach in fashion, I think it's called
Euohrc.
Thongh I'vo nover playe? it for pleasure or lucro,
In which, whoa the cards are in corhdu condition?,
Tho players appear to have changed their positions,
And one of them crios in a confident tone
"I think I might venture to go it clone!"
Whilo watching the game, 'to a wiiim of thc bard's
A moral to draw from the skirmish in cards,
Aud to fancy he finds iu thc trivial strife
Some excellent hiuts for the buttle of Life,
Where, whether the prize be a ribbon or throne,
Tho winner is he who can "go it alone !"
When great Galileo proclaimed that the world
In a regular orbit was ceaselessly whirled,
And KOt-not a convert for all of his pains.
But ?:dy derision, and prison, and chaine
"It moves, for all that," was lus answering tone,
For he knew, like the earth, he could "go it atone!"
When Kepler, with intellect pithing afar.
Discovered the laws of each planot and star;
And doctors who ought to have laudad Ids name,
Derided his learning and blackened bis fumo;
"Learn, wait," he replioJ, "Hil tho truth you shall own;"
For he felt tn his heart "ho could go it alone !"
Alas for the player who idly d?pendu,
In the straggle o'' Ufe, upon kindred and friends,
Whatover the value of blessings Uko those.
They can never atone for inglorious ease.
Nor comfort tho coward who finds with a groan
That his crutches have lott him to "go it alone I"
There is something, no doubt, in the hand you may hold:
Health, famUy, culture, wit, beauty and gold;
Tho unfortunate owner may fairly regard,
As each in its way a moat excellent card
Yet the game may be lost, with all these for your own.
Unless you've the courage to "go it alone I"
In battle or business, whatever the game,
In law or in love it in ever the sanie;
In the struggle for power or scramble for pen",
Let thia be your motto-"Rely on yourself!
Fer wfiether tho prize bc a ribbon or throne,
The viotor is he who can "go it alone!"

FINANCIAL ExcrmrEOT IN NEW YORK-Tho fol?
lowing is an extract from the Philadelphia ledger's
New York correspondent, dated Friday :
This has been another very anxious day in finan?
cial circles, with a further break down in thc
prices of nearly uh dedcriptions of public securi?
ties, the failure of several well-laiown firms, and a
very perceptible aggravation of the uneasiness
-. which was noted yesterday. At tho same time
many exaggerations ore afloat, and certain partios
appear to bc laboring hard, for selfish purposes of
their own, to make bad worse. These exaggera?
tions refer chiefly to tho number of failures. From
diligent inquiry, np to 5 o'clock, I am satisfied that
tho following firms aro all thut can be placed in
tint category, viz: Read & Chase. Williard &
Struthors. Howard Lapsley andF. A. Van Dvko,
Jr. Quigley Bros. announce that they wiil resume
in a farv days.
~- The panic huB not roached thc commercial com
- munity as yet, and the hope is expressed in ail
hands that the storm will be confined to stock
circles.
GOVEEN?ENT PATBONAGE FOE' RADICAL SOUTH?
EE? PAPERS.-The following is dispatched from
Washington to the Northern press :
The Judicial Committee of tho Houso have un?
der consideration, and will . soon reuort, o bill dis?
posing of the patronage of the Government to
newspapers in tho South in such o manner as to
insure its being given to thoroughly loyal papers
and none others. In view of this fact o large
number of "Radical Southern editors aro hore, and
the public may soon expect to hear of tho estab?
lishment of u;w journals in difl'?ient localities in
the South. _
Professor Unger, the eminent Vienese botanist
and p?hnontologist, has been recently examining
the bricks used by the ancient Egyptians in the
construction of the Pyramids, and more particu?
larly those of the Pyramid of Dashour. He has
discovered that the mud of which they were made
contained not only a quantity of animal and vege?
table matter, but also fragments of many mauufac
t jred substances, leading to the conclusion that
Egypt enjoyed? high degree of civilization upward 1
^5000 years ago. j
? BRITISH VIEW OF THE COTTON
TRADE.
Oui- leaders may take fer what they may tliink
hom worth thc following statements of the Lon
lon Telegraph, in relbronce to the supply of cotton
hat amy bo expected from tho placos of growth
:or the present year. It is the English manufac?
turer's side of the question; but even viewed in
that light it may be well to bo informed in refer?
ence to thc opinion hold by certain parties, whoso
inlorcst it is to get cheap cotton. Its speculations
in reference to tho sizo of the present crop in this
country will, in all probability, turn out immense?
ly too high.
Tho most careful estimato we have seen givos
tho now supplv availablo for British uso un to the
30th Juno next from all sources as 2,087.500 bales,
and the demand for consumption and export dur?
ing the same period as 1,71(>,000 bales, leaving as a
probable stock, at tho above dato, a total of 888.270
bales, including that now on hand. Very fow of
the calculations, however, take les* than 2,000,000
bales as tho American crop of the present year.
We behove it to bo capable of demonstration that
cvOry estimato of that crop for tho last 20 years
has proved to fall nliort of tho ultiinato result. At
tho cio6o of thc war tho quantity which it was
thought might bc recoivod at tho American ports
was ?et down by some at 1,250,000 bales, and the
extreme limit i-f tho most sanguine was 2,000,000,
whereas tho quantity actually received was 2,055,
000 ba'.cs. W o have no doubt a similar result will
follow in the present instance. Tho report of the
ludian cotton or^p is also favorable, and it is now
admitted to be quite equal .to that of last year,
while credit is givon to the Indian Government for
its exertions to improve the quality of the staple.
Of the Egyptian crop it is stated that the supply
available will be quite equal to 1865, when we re?
coivod 411,000 bales from that quarter alone. What
is even more important is that the present crop is
so superior in color, staple and cleanliness to the
preceding ono, that there will bo an economy in
the working to the extent cf 15 per cont. Wo may
also point out that the importation of cotton into
Groat Britain last year exceeded that of 1860, the
previous largest year of import, by 400,000 bales,
and the homo consumption hos reached about the
sam? amount as then in bale3, though only about
80 uer cent, in weight. On the 28th of December,
18C0. tho prices were : Fair Dhollerah, 5id: West?
ern, 44d; Middling Orlean?, 7d. On 28th Decem?
ber, 186(1, they were: Fair Dhollerah, 12?d; West?
ern, ll|d; Middling Orleans, 15$d.
It is perfectly plain llroni these figures, and from
whr.t we know of the coming supplies, that, unless
the markots of the world are so bare of manufac?
tured goods as to give at an early day a great
stimulus to Lancashire industry, tho price of
cotton must fall considerably before it can oe said
to have reached its natural level. But the truth
is that we have gone on exporting moro than over,
and mauv foreign markets are glutted; so that a
violent reaction in price of the raw material is a
possibility to be always kept in viow, as soon as
arrivals begin to tell on stocV..
FROM MEXICO.
From our New Orleans exchanges of Friday, we
clip the following lato advices from Mexico :
The steamsliip Victor, Captain G. Gates, arrived
at this port yesterday, from Ven> Cruz, which port
she loft on the 19th inst. The Victor is one of tho
lino of steamers chartered at New York to carry
provisions to tho French troops in Mexico.
From Captain Gates we learn that the remains
of the lamented ex-Governor Henry-W. Allen, who
died an exile from his home and the friends by
whoin ho wa3 most highly estoemed, were brought
to this city on board tho Victor.
The first of tho French transports bad arrived
at Vera Cruz. Although all tho French troops in
Mexico had not been concentrated at that port, it
was generally bolioved that their embarkation
would bo accomplished within a very brief period.
A regiment ol' Zouavea or Egyptians departed
on tho French meil boat that left Vera Cruz be?
fore tho departure of tho Victor.
Our informant states that thore is no foundation
whatever for the report that Maximilian has at
last deteimircd to abdicate. 0:t tho contrary,, his
purpose to remain is as firm as over.
On the morning tho steamar sailed,. a proclama?
tion from Maximilian was published in tho pipers,
lt had reference to the occupation of Matamoros
by United States troops, and, according to thc in?
formation we have received, characterized the
conduct of General Ssdgwick aud his men os an
outrage of the most reprehensible character, and
ono which could not, by any moans, be overlooked
by tte Imperial Government. Tho language of
thc proclamation is said to bo ntrong and emphat?
ic, and oven personal in its application to Gen.
Sedgwick and his command.
Both tho French and Mexican flags aro flying
over the fort and the cuBtom house at Vera Cruz,
and duties aro collected by both partios. Tho line
of steamships to which thc Victor belongs had a
verbal und' standing that their freight money
was to como out free of duty, and this was carried
ont .'u tho case of the Cassandra, but six per cent,
of the money of tho Concordii and Victor was left
behind.
There ia a difficulty between the Frenoh and
Mexican authorities in reference to the collection
of duties, which has as yet not been amicably ad?
justed.
Tho Liberals wore campod within twelve miles
of Vera Cruz, and wo are informed could destroy
the railroad at their pleasure; but from motives of
{tolicy have mn clo no demonstration as yet beyond
he occasional ?topp? ge of a train.
At the time tho Victor left a train had arrived
with three millions of money, but whether it was
for Maximilian or the French, our informant did
not learn.
Fanerai Honor? to General Albert Sidney
Johnston.
Tho New Orleans Times, of the 23d instant,
says :
The remains of this groat and good man which
have reposed in tho cemetery of this city for tho
last four years, will to-day be removed to the
s teamer, on which they aro to bo borne to Texas,
to be there deposited in the soil of thc State bc
loved so well, and for whose independence ho had
in his youthful days shed his blood and sacrificed
his fortune Tho fame of so good, true and noble
a character as Albert Sidney Johnston ought to be
national. All mon who admire true courago, high
chivalrVj and spotless integrity, ought to esteem
it a privdege to unite in paying the tribute of re?
spect; and admiration to such a man. Those who
were his enemies, in the war in which ho foll, can
I not withhold thoir meed of honor and praise from
the mon, who at ali times and on all occasions was
the model of a knightly and gonerou* foo, who
scorned all vulgar passions and prejudices-all in- I
direct and unworthy acts and thoughts. If there
be any whoso natural instincts may bo perverted
and blunted oy tho still lingering passions engen?
dered by a floreo war, lot them remember the cir?
cumstances to which is mainly due the first great
calamity of the Confederates ni the late war. Let
that incident silence and rebuke all ungenerous
thoughts or recollections. Albert Sidney Johnston
fell a victim to his humanity and generosity to a
f?llen foo. The writer was nearly a witness of the
event which he now recalls. It "was in the very
crisis of the great and bloody battle of Sliiloh
when, with the instinct of a great general and a
true hero, General Johnston, perceiving tho neces?
sity of sacrificing himself to achiove the victory
which ho had planned so wiselv, rode forward to
place himself at the hoad of Brockinridgo's divi?
sion, to renew a charge which hod been repelled
with great slaughter.
It was in vain his staff remonstrated against his
exposure. His reply was, "gentlemen^verything
depends on carrying this position." He insisted
upon his staff, composed of his intimate friends,
remaining behind, and with a single member of it,
and his surgeon, Dr. Yandell, rode to tho front.
On his way tho porty rode by a poor wounded Fed?
eral soldier, who, Dr. Yandell remarked, was dying
from hemorrhage, n.id whose life could bo saved
by surgical aid. "Then dismount, Doctor, and
save the poor fellow," was tho order of the Gone
mi. Whilst the Doctor was thus engaged, General
Johnston rodo ahead, and in the smoke and con?
fusion of the battle, got sopera ted from tho sur?
geon. Ho perceived at a glanco tho disordered
and disheartened seato of Breckinridgc's division,
which had beon reduced to one-half of its original
force, by the several inofl'octual chargos it had
mode against a btrong position held by the enemy,
and defended by several batteries of artillery and a
larine force of infantry-and galloping to tho right
and froi.*, waved his hat, and ordered tho chargo.
His tah, powerful form, mounted on a largo
charger, could bo distinctly seen by the whole
line, and instantaneously rovived tho drooping
spirits of the brave Kentuckians. They followed
him with resistless vigor and valor, and swept
their adversaries from the position, capturing tho
batteries and putting to flight tho troops which
had held and defended them so tenaciously. The
point was gained, tho victory won-that day at
leaBt decided, wheu tho heroic General discovered
that he had boon wounded. His friends, who wore
near, were alarmed, and started messengers for
Lia burgeon. They helped him from his horse.
The wQand was so small that it was difficult to
discover its locality in so large a frame. But ou
tho removal of his boot, it was discovered that ho
had bled very profusely. A small rirlo ball baa
penetrated his leg and severed au artcrv. Through
this scarcely visible aperture, tho life-blood oi'ti-.o
brave voteran had tickled away, imperceptibly.
He was too far gouo oven for surgical aid-. His
friend and surgoon . arrived in time to receivo tho
last grasp of tho hand of his dying chief, whoso
stalwart nguro lay prostrate in t;.at dark forest,
surrounded by ?a small circle of devoted weeping
friends, who, indifferent to the foarful soundy and
?cenos of one of the bloodiest bnttlcs ot modern
times,, stood in silent stricken grief around the
jeru, the victor und martyr of the day. Tho
martyr alike of duty to a cause to which he had
sledged lus faith and honor, and to humanity and
generosity to a suffering enemy.
It would indeed bo a sad reproach upon the- :
.hivalry and manhood of our race, if a man who '
hus offered up his life, should not bc honored and
renoruted alike by friend and foe.
THE Springfield Republican has tho following '
leneibio remarks on JEFFERSON DAVIS' condition: ;
Mr. Greeley is reported to have used his influ
mcc with the President, while at Washington lost 1
veek. in connection with Charles O'Conor and
dr. Shea, counsel of Mr. Davis, to procuro tho re- \
case of thc nation's prisoner; and it is said that <
here is a prospect that he will soon be released,
in bail or parole. Mr. Greeley will be blamed by .
lome of bis friends for his persistent efforts to ob- i
am the ralease of Davis, but they are creditable 1
?otb to his head and heart. Thc'President, with J
.11 his obstinacy in some things,-has shown great j
rant of courage in this. Tho detention of on al- j
eged criminal without trial for moroni! an a vear ,
nd a half, is in violatiouof the spirit of tja: Co?sti
ntion and the general sense of justice, and in this l
:ase thc hardship is aggravated by the nature of l
bj crime for which Davis was arrested, that of 1
duplicity in the assassination of Presiih nt Lin- 1
?oin. Guilty, aa he is, of conspiracy agi in t the J
latiou's life, that furnishes no excuse for uelding ]
lim under accusation of n more cowardly and j
nonstrous crime, without trial and without "appa- c
ent evidence. If President Johnson liad beon t
loth just and brave, he would have released him 1
n parole long ago. 1

HONEY MARKET.
Tho Now York^rentny Post, of Saturday, January 20th,
say? :
Tho loan market, as has baon tho cano throughout the
panic, is easy, and tiie supply of capital in quest of safe
investment is growing more and more abundant. But
the difficulty has been that the lenders had little confi?
dence m tho needy firms who wanted to borrow, and less
confildcnce in collaterals which tho competing brokers
hod to offer. Hence there is a three-fold scrutiny, which
has become unusually severe, as to the credit of the bor?
rower, as to tlio margin offered, and us to the character
of thc securities on which tho loan was asked. The boll
cliques, heavily 1 iden aa they have been with stocks at
very high prices, found themselves unablo to meet tho
demands of thc lenders, and tho latter, as thc general
distrust increased, became more and moro exacting in
their demanda.
The consequence was that the holders of securities
had to sell at a ruinous sacrifico, and though a now and
stronger distribution of tho securities has boon made, it
ia regarded aa by no means certain that me list of fail?
ures will not bo increased, or that a few more or the
weaker firms will not bo compelled to succumb. Tho
apprehensions arising out of this state of things render
the banks unusually cautious. The rate for cad loans is
7 per cent, and on Government collaterals the rate is 6,
-with exceptional tiranBactions on lower terms. The dis?
count business is light and choice bills pass at 7a6.
The stock market is leBS excited, and quotations havo
undergone but little change. Governments, which havo
been firm throughout the panic, aro quiet and the in?
vestment demand continues. Railroad shares are fever?
ish, but thc fluctuations in price? aro confined to tho
leading speculative stocks, tho markot closing steady.
For gold this foronoon tho following were tho principal
quotations: 10,134?; 10:30, 134?; 10:45,134? J H. 134?;

Having played upon a Piano-forte made by Messrs.
Ohlckerlng ft Bons, of Boston and ?ow York, I bave
much pleasure In testifying to its general excolh nco.
For sweetness and brilliancy of tone, delicacy of
touch and magnificent power for concert purposes, 1
consider it a really G HAND PIANO-FOBTE. AND DECIDED?

Among' the chief points of excellence of the Ohlcker?
lng Pianos, of which speak the renowned artiste In their
congratulatory testimonials to the Messrs. Chickerrog,
are the greatest possible depth, richness and volume of
tone, combined with a rare brilliancy, clearness and
perfect evenness throng au ut tho entire Beale; and,
above all, a surprising duration of sound, the puro and
ey rn 11 at he tic quality of which never changes under the
most delicate or powerful touch.
During the past forty-three years this firm has mann?
aotnred
30,000 PIANOS,
In the construction of which they have introduced every
known and valuable improvement They have invaria?
bly been selected and used by all of the world's ac
knowledged great artista who have visited this country
professionally, both for private and pubiio use.
TlfALUEKO.
I consider Ohlckerlng & SonsVPianos, beyond com?
parison, the best I have ever se wren America,
GOTTSCHALK.
I ooneider Ohlckerlng St Sons' Pianos superior to an;
In the world.
They are unrivalled for their singing qualities and for
the harmonious roundness of their tone. There li} a
perfect homogeneity throughout all the registers. The
upper notes are remarkable for a clearness and purity
wbicb I do not find in any other instrument, while the
base ls distlngulshea for power, without harshness, oud
for a magnificent sonority.
WEHL?,
.Your Pianos are superior to any I have ever seen in
this country or in Europe.
I have never board a tone.so perfect; lt fields every
expression that is needed in music, and its quality is
capable of change to moee every sentiment. This is a
rare power, and is derived from the perfect pnrity ol
its tone, together with its sympathetic, elastic and wei;
balanced touch.
-POZNANSKl.
During the past eight years I hove constantly played
upon the justly celebrated Erar? Piauoe ; yours are the
only Instruments that I have found, either here or In
Europe, to equal them in all their pointB of excellence.
It moy be sacisfactory to our patrons and friends
among tue public at lorge to state that testimonials have
been received from all the leading artists who have
visited or ore now residing in the United States, a few ol
