Our TRADE.-For a month or six weeks past, the
trade of our town has been very heavy. Gunner
chants grocers and druggists have sold large sup
plies of goods to Nashville, Memphis and other
points in the Confederacy, and staple goods be-
coming quite scarce here.
The cash sales of one dry goods house in town
have, for some weeks past, been over thousand
dollars day. Our two large Touring mills have
also been, and are yet doing heavy business
running, we believe night and day.
The iron foundry, too, is doing all it can; our
tailors seamstresses and shoe makers all busy
railroad is taxed to its fullest carrying capacity;
our hotels and boarding houses crowded, and

Sick SoLDIERs.-Upon the breaking up of Camp
Boone and Camp Breckenridge, the sick of both

was turned into a hoptal for them. There are
good many sick men there-how many we do not
know, as we have not had timSto visit them as we
wished to do; and we would ask for them such at
tshtion from citizens their wants may require
We would be glad to see the ladies visit the hospi-
tall aud see what is needed there to render the sick
comfortable and aid their convalescence.

STEWART COLLEGE,
GAINESVILLE, Tennessee.

WHEN our Northern invaders declared war
against the South one of the Professors of this In
stfution and nearly every student who was uble to
bear arms, promptly enrolled themselves for the
defence of the South, and are now in the army.
On the first Monday in September next the eXcr-
cises of the College will again be resumed
If our soldiers shall not have driven back our OPP
pressors ere that time most of our older students
will, of course, not be with us at the commence
ment of the session, but the younger members can
come. We earnestly hope that before September
our invaders will have received such sautary les
sons as will induce them to remove their poluting
feet from sacred soil, that teachers and pu-
pills may return TO their literary and scientific pen
snts. But if in this we are disappointed, we will
wait till our brethren and fellow-students shall
have taught the President and Cabinet to march
from Washington in II still more lively, double
quick step than they employed in marching to it.
DisCipliue.--Our motto is this: We act to-
,card eVery student christian gentlemen and aCe
require them 10 EeGt as in like manner. And we are
happy to say that thus far they have nobly COM
piled with our requirements.
All young men studying for the ministry in
any evangelical denomination, will be instructed
gntuitously.
EXpenSeS.--Tuition, per session of twenty
weeks, 81 to $50 90. Contingent 50 90. Boar
ding, including lodging, Washing fuel and lights,
500 90 per session.
Exercise. - The students will be drilled
daily in military tactics.

The ENEMYs FORCES Up THE R1vER.-From the
information which we have received from various
sources, judge that the available forces up the
river distributed as follows: At St. Louis, To-
600; Cape Giradeau, Cairo and Birds Point, IL 900;
Old Fort Jefferson, mine miles above Cplumbus)
about 10000; Paducah, 10000; Louisville, 5000
At Jefferson City, Mo-. there are probably also
about 1000. This is a sum total of about 56,0OO
which, we think, is not far from true estimate
