HsbP THEM,--While the ladies of our town are
moving generously in behalf of our sick soldiers
the gentlemen ought to do all they can to aid them
One great need at the Hospital is that of to sit
up with the SEX at night Hitherto this has fallen
upon those soldiers who were conyalescing yet
hardly able to stand it.
Now let the gentlemen in town organize a soci-
ETY. to provide night-watchers for the sick, and
bury the dead. The ladies viii attend them, du-
ring the day, and furnish them with what they
may need, ii the gentlemen will peform the part
we have indicated. That's fair let's do it. Let's
have a meeting Saturday night and organize fol
the good work.

we regard as reliable authority, that last week two
prominent Southern Rights men of P0ducah were
brutally murdered by the commander OF the Lin
coin troops at that point for no crime of their own
but simply in retaliation for the shooting OF some
rascally piCkets near Paducah. The victims of the
Lincoln Government were Mr. Thos Bell and Capt.
J. Davis They we've both shot, aud our informant
states as positive fact that the brutal wrctches

Thar Doc LAw.-We are glad TO learn that the
unnecessary and cruel bill proposed by one MIR.
Turney, is not likely to find much favor in our leg
islature. This bill proposes to allow one dog to
each head of family, and to tax every other dog
kept by him So, and allows people to Stay untaxed
dogs wherever they may be found. We don't
know how other communities feel about il but the
man who would vote for such law, here, would
neverse the legislature afterwards This law, as
we have said, will hardly pass but one will, we
fear, but little less senseleSs and cruel. We hope
the people and the press will speak out against it.

may be secured withous such cruel laws Mr..

w. Valiant Of this city, is now engaged in
forming an Infantry company, for active service.
The time has arrived when il has become absolute
ly necessary, that all abe-bodied young men should
attach themselves 10 some Volunteer company SO
as TO be ready at n moments warming. to strike in
defense of that priceless Ireasure--Liberty.
There is danger, imminent danger, threatening
us ON every side, and unless we are prepared to
meet IL as brave men should we are doomed to
worse than death,-to suhjugation and slavery.
Then in Gods name, let it not be said, (if the
worse comes to the worse) that the men of Glarks-
vile folded their arms, daring not to strike blow
at the invaders becoming willing subjects Of
despotc power, but let it be proclaimed, that with
defiant shouts they rushed forth to do their duty
and nobly and unshrnkingly did they perform It..
sincerely hope our young men will rouse them
selves and prepare for action. Capt Valiant is
anxious to form company at once, and would
like TO see every man in town. Immediately enroll
himself member.
Capt. Valiant will always treat those under him
with kindness and consideration, aud ii will be his
aim doubt to render their lot as easy as crcum-
stances will permit

IMPORTANT TO FARMERs.-We are authorized by
DR.. Blackburn, agent of the Confederate States
Government to give notice that the Government
has rented Smiths Penthouse, in this city, and is
ready through its local agent here to contract for
any number of hogs and beeves to be delivered
here during the usual packing season.
The object of the Government in this operation
is to provide supplies of pork and beef for our ar
my, and the plan of purchasing the live stock di-
rectly from the producer, and doing their own
packing, must commend itself to every one as a
most sensible proceeding. The producer will re-
ceive the highest market price--in either currency
or Treasury notes, as he may select--and the Gov
eminent will at the same time save the enormous
profit usually paid to Spectators. Local agents
will be appointed by DR., Blackburn u the counties
of this State and the counties of Kentucky adjacent
to this, who will be empowered to make contracts,
and we hope that no one who has either hogs or
beeves to sell win dispose of them before the Gov
eminent agent has opportunity to buy them, for,
as we have just said they will give the very high
est current prices.
Fisher A. Hannum, Esq, is the agent of the
Government in this enterprise, for this county, and
may be found, every day, at his Office, in the base
ment of the Planters Bank building in this city.

STEWART COLLEGE,
C1arlnsYille. Tennessee.

WHEN our Northern invaders declared war
against the South one of the Professors Of this In
stitution, and nearly every student who was vbe to
btar arms. promptly enrolled themselves for the
defence of the South, and are now in the army.
On the first Monday in September next the exer-
cises Of the College will again be resumed
If our soldiers shall not have driven back or op-
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 salutary les
sons as will induce them TO remove their pouting
feet from sacred SOIL so that teachers and pu.
pills may return to their literary and scientific per.
suits. 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 still more lively, double
quick step than they employed in marching to it.

tcdrd every student as christian gentlemen and zoe
require then, 10 treGt tts in like manner And we are
happy TO say that thus far they have nobly com
piled with our requirements.

In anguish starts.

snatched from her home little Maggie. She was
lent to earth little while to beautify it by her
genteness and LONELINESS to the hearts of those who
knew her, and her death has left blank that viii
not soon be filed, She was too delicate and sensl-

bloom in an eternal Eden. Another link has been
added to the chain to bind her loved ones to Heav-
en- and another bright spirit to watch for and well
come them there.
