Jean, and Government Agents.

The fashions now require all men
who would look "drcsscd up" to pro
vide themselves with homemade jeans
Consequently the price of this cloth
has gone up amazingy-the incest
commanding S3 to 81 per yard. But
some shrewd, easy conscience fellows
manage to get it for less, by represent.
inc themselves as Government agents.
They so to one who has Jean and tell
the owner such q price will be paid,
and if not taken, that he, the Govern.
ment agent, will have to press it at
that rate, being allowed to go no high.
err OF course such representations
bamboozle u great many, and we warn
all persons to- watch these Governmett t
gcnts-that is, be certain they are
what they represent themselves before
you let them set price and take your
goods. Require their authority for
pressing; and then don't be deceived by
forged authority. In short, take 'em
up according to Lynch law, if you have
room to believe they are bogus COIN
The Confederate Government and its
Generals have not made u tenth as
many agents as persons we meet W
with SO purporting. Lcok out for
Government agents, and their "tricks
oftrade."
