A business man who has tried it, writes with re-

advertisers occupy it, and / care not how hard the

it pays when most of the business men in my line
have taken their hooks out of the water, thinking

letter frOm Captain Candold. OF the TfSi
Ohio Rrziment--InterestiWg statement
OF Escaped Observation-Disclosures OF
Ehhu II. Mason, of Wood County.
NAsnvILLs. December 3. 1869.
Ems. JouRSAL; Wilson W. Brown, Of Company
+, and William Knight Of Company Z, of this reg
iment, arrived in camp yesterday. They were
part of the expedition sent out last spring by Gen
eral Mitchell.
Knight states that the party captured a train at
Big Shanty, one hundred and twenty miles from
Chattanooga, while the passengers were taking
dinner. They were followed by a hand car, which
sent the first locomotive it met after them. making
the pursui, close that they were not able to de-
strnr bridge, and running out of wood and water
they abandoned the train twenty miles from Chat
tanooga, and scattered, but were finally all cap
tured aud confined in Chattanooga Jail. They
were thence taken to Madsou--brought back to
Chattanooga, and Andrews, the leader, and seven
men, tried and sentenced to be hung. They were
then sent to Kuoxville--thence to Atlanta, ,uhet
he eight ,oere executed One Of them belonged TO
C6mpanyF.
An order having been received for the tria Of the
remainder Of as party, they broke Jail ON the 10th
of October last. Brown, Knight, and Ehu II.
Mason, oi rreeuOm toWnshlp, Nood county, CON
cluded to travel together. When nine miles from
Atlanta, Mason was taken sick, and unable to
travel. They took him to house and remained
with him two days and two nights-and until
party had entered the house to recapture them.
Brown and Knight succeeded in escaping btt rers
chased by means Of Mood hounds for more than hoi
a day! They made their way through the corner
Of North Carolina into East Tennessee. They trav-
cled twenty -one days with five meals Of vic;uals-
subsisting the rest Of the time corn and one
raw goose. In East Tennessee they found friends
who gave them food and clothes, and piloed them
through to Somerset, Kentucky. So far as my
informant knows, only four of those who escaped
have been retlken- Mason being among them. He
says they have been mainly tolerNby well treated,
and thinks that those who have been retaken will
not be harmed.
Mason was sergeant in my company, and the
foregoing is the first full and reliable information
have received of him since he left, ON the 10th of
April last. Knight and Wilson are in good spirits,
and anxious to make another visit to Dixie.
Our regiment is 10 excellent health. We have
marching orders yet, and little prospect of any
Colonel Norton has not yet arrived here. Every
thing is quiet about Nashville.

Petersons, Counterfeit ne,ector,


The Philadelphia Ledger says that one of the
effects ofthe greatincrease ofpapermoney, is a cor
responding increase of counterfeit and fraudulent
bank notes. Petersons' Detector, just now LAID be-
fore us, contains descriptions of over forty spur
ious issues which they state have made their ap-
pearance since the publication Of the lst instant.
Forty new counterfeits in month This shows the
necessity of the publication of good Detector de-
voted exclusively to the exposition of frauds in pa
per currency, and their cost is another item in the
tax imposed by the universal of paper currency.
Our paper money now ranges in denominations from
five cents to five thousand dollars, and of course
covers the money transactions of all pursuits from
the cake stand and market woman, TO the banker
and fnancier who count their transactions by thou
sands and millions. The field for the publication
of " Detectors," was never so wide as now, for
every business is interested in having one for
his own protection against loss, much greater than
the cost of this Detector. The general contents of
the work are admirable. The price Of it, semi
monthly, is only Two Dollars year or monthly,
One Dollar year. We would advise all persons
to remit the price of years subscription to T. b.
Peterson & Brothers at once for it.
