Death OF KItcnrssnn.


Tbs celebrated trapper and guide, one Of
the noblest of our brave fronfierslnen, died
recently at Taos, in New Mexico, as will be
seen by an extract from the Omaha NE
braska) Repu6hcaa, given in anotheg place
He was native of Madison county, Ken
lucky, and would have completed his fifti-
eth year had he lived to the 24th of Decem-
Der next. While he was yet an infant, his
parents removed to the, Territory of Mis-
souri,, in which Wild region his youth and
early manhood were spent As the borders
of civilization enlarged, he gradually with
drew farther and farther from the settle
ments, preferring the hannts of the Indian
to the abodes of the white race 10.
About II years since, he fell in with Col.
Fremont. lis services as guide to that in
trepid explorer, and others of his class, have
won for him a national reputation. In Is47,
he was sent to Washington as bearer of dis
patches, and received an appointment of
Lieutenant in the rifle corps of the United
States Army. Six years later, he drove
$500 sheep to California, for-the successful
exeeutionAef which .dihSeult undertaking he
was rewarded with the post of Indian A gent
at Taos, the place of his death. His me-
moirs, edited by DR.. S. c. Peters, have been
published in a large octave volume- CIra

aE CoNcERT.-Notwithstanding the rain and
mud of Thursday night, quite respectable
audience assembled to hear the concert at
Crescent City Hail. More money was re-
ceived than was anticipated, and inrboth
concerts more was made than was designed
in the outset, a result owing, we presume,
to the goodness of the use to which the
money is to be applied. @ -7at-
The singing-especially the choruses-
was unusually fine, and evinced much taste
and preparation. The time,p without
which all singing is worthless, was better
than usual among amateur performers.
Where every one did their part so well, it
is useless to particularize, and we will
merely add that when Mr.. SrERRITT an
nounces public rehearsal of the oratorio
which is now under preparation, every lover
of good music in. our city should make his
arrangements to be present. m

Gs@ Paper is made OF the refuse Of sor-
ghum stalks after the juice has been squeezed
out. This refuse is called 81 Begasse." 1t
makes paper better than straw. Mixed
with one fourth of rag pulp, it is little
harder and tougher, but darker and more
like bank paper than the eommon article
The Philadelphia Ledger OF Saturday, was
printed on it. The Ledger says Of the in
vention: .ss-f. sac ~
The paper upon which this days edition
of the Ledger is printed was manufactured
from the begasse of the sorghum, or the resi-
due of the Chinese sngar cane, after the
saccharine matter has been expressed for
sugar or syrup This paper, twill be seen,
Is of good body, somewhat whittier than
straw paper, strong in quality, plant or
flexible, of smooth surface and even texture.
II is the first successful attempt to make
paper from the fibre of this valuable plant.
The cane in its pressed state-or begasse
was procured from the sugar mill of
Aessrs. Spencer, Thomas, & Co., of this CITY.
and subjected to the same process that straw
goes through. The frstexperiment yielded
about 5000 pounds of paper of the quality
now IN the hands of the reader. 1t is COM
posed OF % per cent. of Sorghum, and 25
per cent: OF rag pulp, the same proportion as
IS used IN making straw paper. When the
quaiity OF this paper is compared with the
first products of straw paper. IT. may readily
be inferred how much nearer il is tn the
perfection desired, for it now compares ia
vOrably in all its essential qualities with the
best straw paper, after five yrars' progress
in the manufacture.

CouNTERFEITs.-The st. Louis Repu6H-
eas. says a note, being a fifty dollar raised
from a ten dollar bill, on the Merchants
Bank of that city, has made its appearance
in that place. Those familiar with the
notes of this Bank know that the various
denominations have the same vignette,
placed in different positions on the bill In
the genuine $40 note it occupies the right
hand corner; in the $50 note the right hand
lower corner, with the words Merchants
Bank, on the upper corner in large letters
In the tens, the name of the Bank is in
the centre. The word fifty, instead of ten,
in German text, is very well done. The sig
nature, J. A. Brownlee, President, in the
altered note, is badly done; and the and
in the denomination is marked by the s
being much larger than the o. In the genu-
inc note so appears in red ink on the lower
right hand corner, but this is not to be
found in the altered note Unless among
experts in the handling of notes, this bill
would be readily received and the public
should be on their guard against the fraud
A new and dangerous counterfeit ten
dollar bill on the Canal Bank, New Or
leans, has also been put in circulation. The
following is description of it: Vignette,
public building; female leaning on shield
and holding battle-axe, on right; holding
shield with one foot, on left. Imitation of
genuine, but can be detected by the follow
ing marks There is no flourish after Canal
in the counterfeit-in the genuine it can be
plainly seen; also the letter A in bank, in
the counterfeit is joined7s-in the genuine it
is not Joined; also, the LIS in dollars, in the
counterfeit, are joined together at the bot
tom-ln the genuine they are not Joined.
Appearance good, and likely to deceive at
first glance.

BT The editor of the States and Union, at
Washington, has improved slightly on our
Federal Constitution. He says it should
define treason as follows:
"Treason against the United States shall
consist only in levying war agaist them or
in adhering to their enemies, giving them
aid and comfort, and eOery anti-Stayery agi-
tdtor, dttly convicted as such, shall be coHsjd-

EE~ About as lugubrious spectacle as

p1r Much has been said in the RepubE-

RS% Much has been said in the Kepuoh-
can papers, recently, about the " back down
of Bennett of the New York Herald, when
threatened with libel suit by Weed,
of the Albany -EOeRing Journal, whom Ben
nett charged with participating in the slave
trade. The following is the retraction made
by the Herald:
ave, therefore, unhesitatingly believe
and state that he was no more concerned in
the slave-rrade than the Southern Democra-
cy and Southern statesmen, or Mr.. Buch-
anans Administration, and thus we restore
our amiable contemporary to his usual
peace of mind and good standing in the
community. Stetson, of the Astor will
please empty one of his best bottles on this
point"
When it is remembered that a goodly num-
ber of the Southern Democracy are engaged
in the slave trade and boldly aVow it, the
retraction seems to us of dubious char
acter. However, if Mr.. Webb's honor is
vindicated, in his opinions we have no rea-
son to complain.

H5- A correspondent of the Atlas, wri-
ting from Richmond, says the State Fair
ought to be located at Indianapolis, provi-
ded the citizens of that city will raise
$4,000, and the railroads centering there
$25. 200 more, for the purpose of purchasing
suitable grounds and erecting the proper
buildings on them. We think if the State
Fair is not located permanently at Indian
apolis until its citizens and the railroads
subscribe and pay up S75, 600, it will be a
travelling caravan for some time to come.
