THE following specimen of negro wit is too
good to be lost. was some time ago in bar
ber's shop, enjoying the delightful affiliations of
o shampoo when Bill, our barber, very OBJ
servant, laxative fellow, and as black as the

darkey twang,
"Massa c., do you know Lawyer -, in de
same building whar your Office is2'
"Oh yes replied very WELL

At this remark big, fat, chufy negro loung-

wild a big trunk, when he hain't got many
clothes ~
thought it fitted the head exactly.

WASHINGTON, March 5.-The President
has received the follwing from Gen. But
ler
\ dispatch from Fitzpatrick, dated
Yorktown the 4tl, SAYS Col. Dahlgren
was directed TO make diversion with
five hundred men on the James River.
He attacked the enemy on Tuesday af-

The main attack having failed Dahlgren
attempted to join me at Meadow Bridge.
He and Col. Cook were with the advance
guard, which became separated from his
main force; Since then nothing has
been heard from them. have still hopes
that they may yet come in. The main
force reached here with slight loss"
General Butler adds that deserters re-

eZ~ The fact that General Breckin-
ridge has been assigned to the Depart
ment of Western Virginia by the Rebel
Government is supposed, and certainly
not without cause, to indicate a purpose
to invade Kentucky from that direction.
We hope and believe that the Govern
ment at Washington will so crowd mat
tiers in Western Virginia and Northern
Georgia and East Tennessee as to give
the Rebel leaders and armies something
else to do besides invading Kentucky.
Let the army be filled up and let the
war be prosecuted with the utmost vigor
at the arlest possible day and there need
be no fear of rebel invasion of Ken
lucky in any large numbers.

CorToY.-Cranc, Brown & Go. receiv-
ed over six hundred bales of this de
throned king YESTERDAY, and we hear OF
large quantities coming from below.
We are in hopes that cotton goods
will take a decline, and find no physi-
clan to relieve the disease.
The large quantities Of cotton coming
this way is another evidence of the eili-
gible location of Evansville as ship
ping point.
With the best lines of packets henc2
TO all points below, and one of the best
lines Of railroad leading to the East,
putting freight through to New York in
the unprecedented short time of six days,
we have a right to expect large receipts
of freight at this point.
Persons desiring to ship produce Or
other articles south from the interior OF
the State will also find, upon examina-
ton, that this is the best point to con-
sign to.
A ship yard and marine railway add
ed to our present facilities would make
this point unrivaled.

His Cancer antidote is the most wonderful dis

truly astonishing-withouI -parallel--and is the
only known autidote for Cancers or cancerous af-

where no other treatment could possibly be used.
