the Harrisburg tPa.1 Union and Patriot, hitherto a

ger which is beginning to threaten the North:
Are our readers aware that rebellion against

determination ia putting. down the rebellion at the

the beautiful prattie about the Constitution the
Union, and the enforcement Of the laws, coming
from those who have spent years in trampiing
upon the Constitution, defiding the Union and yio-

once more gained the mastery. and revolution is
now the watchword. The Government must

Al a called meeting of the Board of Trustees of

1861, at which H. +, Beaumont Dr. Joshua Cobb,
VIM. NJ. Stewart, Thos. J, Munford and B. w. Mac
rae Jr, were present the following proceedings
were had aud resolutions passed:
WuEnEAs, 1t has pleased nm allwse Providence to
remove by death, one Of our members in the person
of the late RoBERr S. MOORE who has been eonnec-
ted with this Institution as member and Treasurer
Of this Board from the formation of the School,
always an active supporter Of it, aud ever faithful
in the discharge Of the duties growing out of the
trust committed to him, therefore
Res0tced That we sincerely depore the loss OF
one with whom we have been so long and so pleas
urably associated as great loss TO this institution
to the social circle in which he moved, aud to the
business community as member of which through
out long and useful career he has ever sustained
an unspotted reputation.
Rssoi0ed That in Offering this last tribute to the
memory of the deceased, we sincerely sympathize
with hs family in their great bereavement
Resolved That the city papers be requested 10
publish these proceedings aud that the Secretary OF
this Board furnish the family OF the deased with a
copy Of them.

EeA. Among other preparations in town for a
large Spring business, despite the hard times, we
take pleasure in noticing the recent inportations
by @. B. Rountree & Co., the extensive Boot and
Shoe House, on Franklin st. By late heavy addi-
tons they have rendered their stock very complete
and now supply all wants in their line, and in any
quantity. Their prices, too, we can assure our
readers are greatly below what they have been
used to here. They buy from the manufacturers,
and thus are enabled to save to their own custom
ers the eastern Jobbers' profits. See their adver-
tisement.

the hard times, still continues to avail himself Of
every improvement in his profession; and no pho
Ographic gallery in the South possesses better fa-
cilites for the production of good pictures than
his. Mac too, is genuine artist. He does not
practice his art simply because il yields him main

a1'Ore and understands its modus operdndi as sci

DeA- As the time for planting our staple crops is
now nearly at hand We beg to make single sug-
geston 70 our farmers and chat Isl that they should
plant largely IN grains and grasses. For two or
three years past the crops Of these staples in our
State have been short ones and hundreds of thous-
anda Of dollars haze been sent out Of il to pay for
corn, hay and other like products. In these i'm
portant staples we should always be sellers-never
buyers and we hope that for the future such will
be the case. To inaugurate this our farmers must,
this year, raise very large crops of cereals. The
Importance of doing so has no doubt been suggest
ed to them by the experience of the two past years
and we are glad to believe they will act upon it.

the course of two weeks, will no doubt largely in

coy Every man within an hundred miles Of
Ciarksye who is interested in the selling Of Tobac-
50, ought to pay particular attention to the weekly
sales made here. No better market--nay no mar
ket as Iemunerative to the Planter, can be found
now, elsewhere. What the New Orleans market
may be after while, we, OF course cannot tell but
al tbs time Tobacco is certainly selling higher here
than there. In support of our opinion we need on
ly TO ask comparison OF the sales here with those
at other points The Sales here all this season, have
been first rate, and growing better for the Planter
evtsy day. All the warehouses, too, have made
good sales but far our friend J. X Smith, Of Red
river warehouse, bears of the horns, both for the
highest price for single hogshe6d and the highest
average Of an entire sale. Last week he sold a
hogshood at 81 5oper hundred and by reference to
our exports this week it will be seen that he made
a sale, last Tuesday, of nney-seyen hogsheads, at
an average Of $s,o6--a most excellent sale, Ger
tainly
In this last sale eleven hogsheads Of NJ. S. Majors
crop averaged Sll,l32-3 per. hundred. Look at
the sales this week. They are all first rate

insolcnt foe ever again come with the Infamous
war-ery of 'Booty and Beauty" they shall find in
your humble servant, another JACKSON to drive
them from shores.
And in such a conflict, my fair country women,
we would first strike, and last strike for your de-
tense. We know how confidently we could rely
on your patriot sm for the breast-tcorks, and in
trenched behind he'n-with our hands on that cot
