Joyful News.
The Cry is "Stin They Come. :"
WHAT I?


Why beautiful goods, that viii cause a great talk,
AS our old friend NJ Powers, has just returned from
And receiving at his siore Southeast corner Of the
Square,
rich Spring and Summer Stock, which he'll sell very
Embracing clothing every article in the furnishing
Which beauty and durability are so 'struy divine "
He has coats and pants of almost every style and
shade.
Most fashionably cut, and very neatly pressed and
made;
And as for handsome vests-he'n sell you one in
flash
For the very least possible share of your cash.
Nor forgetting old line Wings and Democrats
For whom he keeps a variety of suitable hats,
The finest caps-all fancies sure to please
Both cloth and silk, and new style Japanese;
Handsome Shirts and splendid cravats and collars,
So 10 VI. Powers don't neglect to bring your dollars;
For with myriads we would now dispute,
VINO dare say his garments fail to suit;
Those most neat and asiidous in taste,
Who of in badly made clothes their money waste.
But strange to say. for the very smallest sum,
You feel inclined to expend at Powers Emporium,
That will compel you for months TO wonder and stare.
He keeps clothing to suit the large and the small,
And to credit our word, Just give him a call.
''Quick sales and small profits" is his motto long
traced,
So to NJ Powers Store for bargains make haste

meeting Of the members Of the Hancock A 2.
ricultura Society was held on wedncsd ay evening
and about TWEEN y-ive persons were in attendance.
notice of the meeting was given on the Fair
ground by the Marshall late in the afternoon.
Probably not fny persons who arc interested
knew Of it.
The meeting was called to order, and motion
made to reconsider the very proper vote adopted
at the last annual meeting to have the choi ce Of
officers elected after the Fair ami at the meeting
on field crops. The vote prevailed. and then
another one was made to proceed to the choice of
officers. ". II. Black Esq, was unanimously
elected President. The committee to notify him
reported that he declined. Samuel WATSON Esq
was then elected, receiving all the votes cast,
twelve. A. NJ. Glidden was elected Secretary
Moses Hale Treasure r, and John Whitaker Vice
President and the following gentlemen all by a
vote rang ing from /? to Is, Trustees for the
ensuing year jesse button, John P nsdon

What are we Doing ?

What IS being done in this county to fur
nish both sick and well soldiers that have
gone to put down rebellion with needed
articles of winter clothing? Every town
that has sent a soldier to maintain the gov
eminent, should also see that all needed ar
ticles for his comfort and health should be
furnished him. The government is doing all
it can, and is working with wonderful ener-
~ to do all that is necessary, but still it can
not supply some articles as fast as needed.
Let a public meeting be called in all the
considerable towns, and responsible and eff
cicnt committees appointed at once, to collect
contributions of winter clothing for our
soldiers, as they shall be made, and forward
them to Washington.
Two companies of soldiers have already
been sent from this town and vicinity, and
the third is already half formed; these sol
diers will need many articles for their health
and comfort which we ought to supply. In
the mean time before any public action can
be had we will take all articles contributed
and agree TO collect money enough to pay
the transportation. SenG along socks. wool
en- shirts, drawers, blankets &C., &c.

The Fair and Cattle Show.

The Fair was advertised to commence on
Tuesday and some degree of interest was ev-
identity taken in this Annual Show and
Fair by the people in the county but it can.
not be winkcd out of sight, that the interest
in this important enterprise has been grow
ing small by degrees and beautifully less"
for the past year or two. We remarked last
year that there were causes for this which
were not known to all but whatever they
are it is obvious that they should now be recti-
fed, and the public asked to take hold in ear
nest and make the Hancock Agricultural So
cietya yearly success. and for the future purge
it of all seeming or real tendencies towards a
close monopoly managed for other than for
the legitimate objects for which it was char
tered. Many Of the officers have labored un
tiringly. and with a great deal of sacrifice, of
both time and money for its success and now
manifest a commcniablc spirit and an earnest
wish for its complete triumph.
But Tuesday, the day of the commence
ment, was a rainy day, keeping many away
that had calculated on attending with stock
We have no doubt but the exhibition of
vcgeta blcs and cereals, as to quality, would
have exceeded any previous year aud also n
fair amount have been found on the Society's
tables. There would have been less stock
than on previous years, but, perhaps, toler-
able show in this line The Fair, however,
received its hard blow from the state of the
weather. This misfortune could not be
guarded against The officers did what they
could to make the remainder of the time al
lottcd to til, exhibition as pleasant to visi-
tors, and as profitable to the exhibitors and
the farmers and mechanics as possible, but
no amount of assiduity or well intentoncd
efforts could make good the damage of one
bad day, when that one was the most i'm
portant one of the series.
\ foot race came off in the morning on the
, day and also the trial Of speed of fast
walking horses.
We will give full particulars next week,
and hope to have the assistance of the Secre-
tary and President in making out list Of
entries and the premiums awarded.
We prepared quite an extended notice of
articles on exhibition, bat the manuscript got
mi>laid, until too late for this week.

honoi affairs, without giving offence to any
except very few who are traitors at heart,
and would be such in their lives, were it not
for Fort Lafayette and lew other such places
which they have great horror of.
can but believe that our National pros
poets are more encouraging than they were
a few weeks ago. The federal army is daily
strengthening and our navy is beginning to
make its power known through the Southern
Confcdcrdcy. Much has been done already
by land and sea but the work fe be done is
very great yet, great as it is. it will GER
tainly be accomplished.
The people in the loyal States, are well
united True, in every county are few trdi-
tors (self-styled !" peace men } but they are
not very numerous, or influential and ac-
cerding to recent developments, their num-
Der is growing less for, since the election,
some have been taken to the Forts, q few
have rcpcnted y and raised their voice for
the Union and the Government ; while 9th

try.
If this war ends soon, its real causc-sla-
vcry-will not be ovcrthrown. If it should
continue many years, it is more than posi-
bic that the g peculiar institution " will he
stricken out of existance in this country. -
If our present difficulties are adjusted by the
sword, a peace conquered. and rebellion CON-
pletely suppressed, it is quite certain that the
doctrine of secession will gain but little pop
ularity for generations to come.
The South is learning n lesson at a costly
tuition. They are learning that among
" Northern laborers, - the mnd-sills Of
society," there are Numbers, intelligence,
'reahh, energy, patriotism and po,eer. From
our National birth until lSGl. the South has

~ the citizen soldier, the haoi's' customs
labors and regulations Of the resim1 are
amusing, curious and strange. Any one
would naturally suppose that a code OF laws,
good, wholesome and substantial ones would
be the first thing to adopt hen the regiment

The Colonel is the Congress laws are made,
enacted, revised, abolished new ones are
made, passed, amended and approved, and
still 50 imperfect are these even found to be
that they are abolished unyiolatei and new
code introduced.
Well, Mr.. Editor, on the whole, allow me
to say that we are doing well. Although
much of our time isemployed in drilling. ye,
we have sufficient time 70 attend to our IN
dividual concerns. We write to our friends
at home for the sake of getting letter in re-
turn, which is considered great prize. The
American finds its way to me occasionally
which meets with welcome reception by the
whole Company.

How Can New Orleans be

additions the traitor Twig.s has made to
their defence is not known. If they are
well mounted it would be very difficult for a
fleet to pass up the main body of the river.

approach by water to the city. Tn, one is
through lakes BJrsne and PJntchartrain,
another up the Atchasalayl to Berwick bay.
