We have learned with much regret, lha, some
OF our Republican friends have ina sined that The
publication oi the article from The Lynchburg
Republican, in orr paper OF "Wednesday, was in
tended TO throw censure on Them or place them
in false position. How such an inference could
be drawn from our remarks, we are at a loss 10
determine nothing Of the kind vas farther from
our intention. We certainly desire 10 avoid eve-
ry thing in the lsas, calculated TO offend friends
with whom we have been in The closest bonds.
Looking alone to the interests OF our glorious
country, and, in our humble Judgment, TO the as
ccndancy OF the Republican party as the best Sc
CURLY for il, we shall, at all times, do our best 10
preserve its principles aud lis integrity. In this
sentiment we are sure we shall meet cordial re

in reference 10 her wants.

CHEAT AND GROW RICH.

1,HIS has been the secret principle Of too many
Of the wholesale dealers in Teas up to this time,
and they have practised the most shameful imposition
on the Country Merchant without any fear of detec-
ton. But new era in the Tea Trade has come and
Pekin Tea Company claims the honor Of its intro.
duction They were the first to raise the banner Of
Reform, on which il has inscribed the simple words:
"PURE TEAS AT HONEST PRICES. "
A complete revolution has heen the consequence
Let consumers Of Tea everywhere lock at what we
have done, aHe igSNu'} ssssg,a t>N (.
list We were the first to send them Teas that
used to be called too good for them before. gAs5
4, I'd. We have driven out the market a vast amount
d trash and introduced better class of Teas than
has eyef yet been sold Importers Of Tea often come
10 TO get for their usc and for their friends,
fine qualities they can find nowhere else.7 tl,,,
Sd. We have reduced prices mote than rs per Ct
both in Black and Green Teas. The wholesale
grocers say we are running the trade and call u
fhumbugs. Thisfwe have done already, and nov
see what wc are ready to do. ~ tS'g
7s lst We will sell Teas by the sihgle chest, hall
chest Or IA pound box, at tho same prices that
wholesale grocers pay to the importers when they
buy by the hundred packages.
I'd. The wholesale grocers allow only ,l3 or nt
most Ia pounds tare 10 the half chest. This Is .
cheat. We allow, III most instances, 10 and 10
I lbs, taTe on tho same. 5Isft
81. We hereby undertake to sell every kind OF
Tea, from, sic 10 t,otlUe cents per pound cheaper
than the wholesale groceH do. ds3 fot Y
y How can we do this! asks the country merchant
This is our answer. We are content with seven
per cent profit instead Of rs and SO per cent, Ia
wholesale grocer. H Sf fga sd Y
We deserve tho thanks Of the country merchants
for saving them hereafter from Icing cheated. Let
them come to the Warehouse Of tho Pekin Tea
Company, and compare samples Of Tea they get
elsewhere; and If they buy bad Teas then at high
prices.it is their ownfault ns5atTlf.
An English importer lately boosted to US that ne
could make more money by sending bad Teas 70 the
New York Market, than on good Teas. We are
resolved to overthrow this fraud; and new call upon
agents in every town in the United States to come
forward and buy Teas imported by the Pekin Tea
Company, and VIC pledge ourselves, that Il in six
months they do not sell more Tee than tho Oldest
and largest dealers in Tho town, we will give them
our Tea without charge. This is plain English and
cannot be misunderstood. We appeal for testimo-
mony to the immense success Of orr Agents in any
part Of the United States. ih& aN sQ.3b ,.
rs Agents wanted in every town in the United
statos for the sale Of these Teas, by which they
make money, and confer benefit upon the Public

PROSPECTS OF PEACE-WHAT,

| What great and pressing peril is there to
drive the Mexicans into negotiations under
such circumstances This war inficts no
heavy loss, no dire calamity. no irreparable
injuries upon the country and people of Mexico.
On the contrary. it improves and enrches
Them. Trade prosperity and wealth have
fourished in the wake Of our army, and have
filed The purses Of the Mexicans. The few
thousand soldiers who have fallen before our
arms have reduced the number Of non-produc
live consumers, and proportionately relieved
the oppressed. people. The capture Of their
Capitol will scarcely mortify their pride. Their
own prudence, and the humanity Of our sol,
diers will save il from injury. Private proper
ty will not only be safe, but will be increased
in value by the occupation Of the city by our
army at least one HUNDRED per cent The in
PRODUCTION Of fifteen thousand Anglo-Americans
into their large and populous Capital, will give
an immense impulse to trade, commerce, and
all the productive labor Of the thousands Of poor
people, who at present linger about the city in
idleness and poverty. Mexico. too, is not a

Paris, whose captures secures the conquest Of
the whole nation. The other States are indie.
pendent of the Capital, and quite indiferen, to
itslate! Wehavese what scanty supplies have
been contributed to ts.defence by the other states.
They will not mourn over its fall. Probably
they will envy rather than deplore The fate Of
the Capitol. Like the old spinsters described
by Sir Walter Scott, in the sacked town, who
so naively inquired when il would fall to their
lot to participate in the consequences of the
sack, the other towns in Mexico will view with
the strongest emotions Of envy the happy fate
of the Capitol, in falling into the hands of such
liberal and open-handed captors. The posses
sion Of the Capital does not advance us in the
slightest degree towards the goal Of peace. But
twill greatly aid US in the execution Of the only
plan by which peace can be procured twill
afford great facilities Tor the organization of
government, and the armed occupation of the
countryside only mode, in our opinion, by
which this war will ever be honorably termi-
mated. The Mexcans have yet TO learn that
we are in earnest in this business--ihat we are
not so sick of the war as TO consent to conclude
il on, any terms that how expensive and trou-
blesome soever it may be, we shall continue il
until they cry "hold, enough" To put to
flight this ignorance, these erroneous deductions
from our own minimizing and imprudent con-
fessions, and impatient and repeated proffers
OF peace, il will be necessary 10 constitute a,
the Capital a firm, efficient and comprehensive
government of occupation, and maintain it
until peace can be established on terms consist.

A little son--an only son-have we;
God bless the lad, and keep him night and day,
And lead him softly DER this stony way
He is blue-eyed, and haxen hair has he,
Such, long ago, mine own was wont to be-
And people say he much resembles me!
I've never heard bird or runlet sing
So sweetly as he talks. His words are small,
Sweet words--oh how deliciously they fall
Much like the sound Of silver bells they ring,
And fill the house with music Beauty lies
As naturally upon his cheek as bloom
Upon peach, Like morning vapor, flies
Before his smile my minds unfrequent gloom.
A jocund child is he, and full of fun:
He laughs with happy heartiness; and he
His half-cosed eyelids wrinkles rougishly,
Till from their lashes tears start up and run:
The drops are bright as diamonds. When the.
roll .tt a.
Adown his cheek, they seem to be the o'erAowinS
OF the deep well Of love within his soul
The human tenderness Of his nature showing.
IT'S pleasant to look upon him while he sleeps:
His plump and chubby arms, and delicate fingers
The half.form'd smile that round his red Iii
NH. creeps;
The intellectual glow that family fingers.
Upon his countenance, as il he talks
With some bright angel on his nightly walks.
We tremble when we think that many a storm
May beat upon him In the time TO come
That his now beautiful and fragile form a
May bear burden sore and wearsome.
Yet, SO the stain Of outlines and shame
Be never placed upon his soul and name
So he preserve his virtue though he die
And to his God, his race, his country prove
A faithful man, whom praise nor gold can buy,
Nor threats Of vile, designing men, can move.
We ask no more. We trust He who leads.
The footsteps Of the feeble lamb, will hold
This lamb Of ours in mercy's pasture-fold,
Where every inmate near the loving Shepherd
" rs feeds. l ,s .f4g4 + H..
