The Franklin Family
MACHINE,

Has one advantage which is worthy Of especial attention
in addition to the peculiar character Of the stitch, and
that is its adaptation TO either light or medium heavy
work. The Machine which at one moment is used on
THE MOST FABRIC. in a few mo-
ments after can be brought to bear with the anne facil-
ity On cottonades and towels OF the cOarsest description.
Its adaptation for FAMILY WORK, is thus remarka-
BILE, ana gives it a superiority over every other style of
machine in the Market.
IN order that these Machines may be placed in the
hands of all classes. we have reduced the price OF our
FRANKLIN FAMILY MACHINE TO FORTY

as heretofore no Machine will be allowed TO leave the
office that we cannot fully warrant in every respect
We shall keep on hand at all times a general assort-
meut of Sewing Machine msterials

At latest alvices, the Confederate army In
Mississippi was still at Holly Springs, but all
their war material, stores, &c, have been re-
moved across the I'allahatchie. 1t is belize ed
that, if seriously attacked, they will fall back
south Of the river.
The expedition which left Helena few days
since for Cotton Plant, numbered fifteen hun
dred men. On arriving at the point OF attack,
it was found that FIVE thousand Confederates
held the place, when the Federal forces return

which twelve Confederates were killed and
tventy-four wounded. The Federal loss was
thirty wounded.

from Richmond to Harrison S Bar.
The article has excited much attention in
Europe The Prince winds up his sketch Ct
the campaign with few pages Of comments
upon the political aspects of the struggle IN
which he had taken part. That his sympathies
are wholly with the North and the Union is
plain.
He thinks the failure before Richmond must
greatly proong the strife, and that a procla-
nation of emancipation would be more likely
to divide the North than to appal or persuade
the South The reconciliation which be BE-
leves might have followed the fall Of Rich
mond, he now regards as very difficult.
But he concludes: Il am not one OF those,
however. who will thence inter that the fedf-
ralcause is lost. Compared to those of the
South the resources of the North are far from
being exhausted &C.

BUCKKNER "DowN" ON PHLOw.-A st.
Louis correspondent, referring to some Incl
dents connected with the Fort DonelsOn sur
render, says:
Buckner, since he has been a captive has spo-
ken very wrathfully of Pillow, almost as severe
ly as he did Just after the close Of the Mexican
war, when he PUBLISHED a card in some of the pa
pers, calling the digger of bitches on the wrong
side the hardest names possible. Buckner says
it was the design of the leading secession Off
GERS to escape from their entertainments and
save their army without surrender. With this
view very strong column was formed under
Pillow and Bushrod Johnson, the men having
their knapsacks on and packed ready for escape
and directed to make furious attack upon the
weaker part of the Federal lines. After driving
the Union troops back and thus opening a way
of escape, Pillow was to give a signal to Buck
ner and the balance, who were at once to follow
them up and escape with them through the
Union lines. The attack was made, and the
Unionists after exhausting all their ammunition
for the time were forced to fall back. Pillow
thought he had whipped our whole army, went
into tantrums over his great victory and neglec-
ted the signal. In a short time the Union troops
returned with reinforcements, drove Pillow and
his mighty columns ingloriously back, and thus
vanished all hopes Of escape.
1t seems from this that Pillow was in
command of the rebel troops that made The
furious attack upon the Federals the day
before the surrender, aud had he carried out
his instructions, it is probable the most of
the rebel army would have escaped.

APPEAL OF THE BRIDGE BuRNERs.-It will
be remembered that some seven or eight
rebel bridge burners, in Missouri, we're re-
Gently sentenced TO be shot, but their SEN
tence was afterwards commuted by Gen.
Halleck to Imprisonment during the war,
with the understanding that if any more
depredatiOns of the kind we're committed,
the original sentence should be carried into
execution. The object waa to make an eX-
ample of them, in order to put stop to
the wanton destruction of property. They
were sent to the Alton Penitentiary, from
whence they have issued piieous appeal
to their friends In Missouri to do nothing
that will endanger their lives. They
say
As men sentenced and confined, we can only
reach you through the channel of the public
press. Having thus placed before you the con E
ditions upon which hang the duration of our
lives, we earnestly request due observance OF
the conditions, and enter our solemn protest
against the destruction of railroad property in
the State of Missouri. The responsibilities in
cident to these conditions being unequal to the
circumstances by which we are surrounded, (as
far as influencing or controlling this matter is
Concerned,) we only present this case with anx-
ious solicitude, and commit our lives to your
care and protection. Belle wing that even in
the frenzied madness of the clash of aims, you
would not show an utter disregard to the lives
of your felow-men, we remain very truly and
sincerely, your fellow-citizens.

MORE INDIAN OUTRAGEs IN HUMBOLDT.
BY the arrival of the Humboldt Express, on
Thursday, says the Trinity Journal, we learn
that another attack was made on the settlers in
the vicinity Of Angels ranch, on Monday last.
The expressman, whose name we did not learn,
states that in the afternoon the Indians attacked
the Angels ranch house, where Geo. Zentner
and brother, and two women, were at the time.
The younger Zentner was shot in the stomach
and hand at the first fire. George escaped from
the house, leaving the women, and proceeded to
Miners place for physician. He states that
when some one or two miles from the house he
discovered that it was in flames, leaving little
doubt that all the inmates were murdered. Pre-
vious to this attack they burned the house at
Patrick's ranch, and it is feared also that the
family of Mr.. Goodman, formerly residents of
Weaverville, were also murdered, as the Indians
crossed the mountain from the direction of their
house. The mail carrier to Orleans Bar had
been fired on, and large number of cattle
killed.
