Morgan and his Men.

We learn that TIE number of recruits who
have aocked to the standard of Gen. Morgan.
and one nowin campawaiting his arrival, isup-
wards of twothousand. The General remark
ed TO asgeutleruan in this city, however, that
he would be satisfied with five hundred of
his picked followers number which he can
WELD with much greater effectiveness than an
entire brigade. From another source, at
Richmond, we are informed that Kentuckians
there were anxious that Bucsuer and Nor
gan should each rally around them all the
troops inclined to fight under their banners,
fully believing that the popularity of the Two
men would ~addFhirty thousand men to the
army. To this, it is aaported, the President
objected.
Since calls have been issued for " Morgan's
men" hundreds, if not thousands, in Virginiai
North Carolina, South Carolins and Georgia,
have besieged the General with applications,
whose unanimity of syirit at once bespeaks
the hold he has secured upon the popular
heart. But it is impossible for ell these ex-
pectants to secure the places they anticipate.
Some must be content to take their places in
the infantry. True patriotism will sacrifice
preference.-South Carolinian.

,CoTroN ON HAxD.-Mr. M%emminger, writes
to Hon.. c.. J. McRae, our financial agent
abroad:
At present, W have a sufficient quantity Of
cotton to meet all our engagements. The
enemy, thus far, have captured about 10000
bales, and ne have been obliged to burn about
as much more. But as our stock reaches
over 400, 900 bales, our capacity to pay has
not been seriously impaired.
Mr.. McRae writes to the London hader:
1t is now under the consideration of the
Government at Richmond to prohibit alto
gether the expectation of cotton, except such
as is pledged by its obligations. | have every
reason to believe that this necessary and salu-
tary measure will promptly be adopted. The
total Of such obligations, other than those of
the seven per cent. cotton loan, does not reach
100000.

The Rebellion.

Storke's History of the Rebellion is
tue latest, best, and cheapest work of
the kind published. Coming out near
ly two years later than the other His.
tories, it is decidedly superior to them
in plan and execution. The entire
History of the war can be fully given
in the space devoted to it in this
work, namely,-two vols. of 500 octa-
vo pages each, while the rival works
have already been extended to two
vols, and more must follow. The cost
of this work is only about one half
that of the others, and yet we regard
it as better work. 1t contains three
very important subjects not found in
any of the other Histories, namely -
First, the Causes of the Rebellion are
fully and Historically given. Second,
the Biography of the Actors in the
Rebellion and third, its Scenes and
Incidents. 1t contains more Portraits
and Maps, &c. "A word to the WISE"
1t is receiving very liberal patron
age from our citizens, and it merits it.
Vol. /. ready. Vol II. completes the
work. Don't fail to examine it when
the Agent calls.

The arrangements for canvassing
St. Charles township. to increase the
subscription begun as above indica-
ted, are very complete. Committees
are appointed for each school sub-dis-
trict, as follows:
Sub-Dist. No. Mrs. r. w. Hum
phrey and Geo. G. Dean.
No. Mrs. NJ. Ireland and Henry

No. 6.-Mrs. D. Wiltse and Rev. E.

No. Mrs. S. Hackley and Rev.

The subscription papers are drawn
up, and as they read our citizens will
see that great promptness is important
in preparing their contributions Of ar
ticles. which may be either for the
army or for sale at the Fair in Du-
buque. Now is the time for patriots
to set their inventive genius to work
as they ransack the household stores.
Many things that at first might ap-
pear worthless, upon a second thought
will assume the place Of first impor
lance. There is hardly need of wait
ing to make up articles. Well pre-
served trinkets, ornaments. and goods
of various kinds, should be given to
the committees at once and be rcplac.
ed hereafter. if necessary, at the do.
nor's leisure.

General Sickles.

General Sickles, accompanied by his

serving the temper and disposition of
the people towards the United States
government, investigating the practi-
cal workings of the policies adopted
in dealing with them, expounding the
purposes of the Administration, and
endeavoring to reconcile them to the
Government. The General will make
such suggestions to the President from
time to time, for the modification or
change of policy, as may occur to him
from his observation. AT Cincinnati
a gunboat from Admiral Porter's feet
will be placed at the disposal of the
General, by which he will be conveyed
to the principal points in the South
west. He will return ria the sea coast,
calling at all points ofFederal occnpa.
ton, for which purpose an armed ma
val vessel will be assigned him by
Farragut. The President is exceed
ingly sanguine that the effect will be
to restore the people to a hearty ale
glance by opening their eyes, which
have been so long blinded by South.
ern politicians, and convincing them
of the desire of the Government, while
sternly demanding their return to 10y
atty, to deal with them in kindness
and with all forbearance.

How COFFEE CANE TO BE UsED.-At
the time Columbus discovered Ameri-
ca, it had never been known or used.
1t only grew in Arabia and upper ETH
opia. The discovery Of its use as a
beverage is ascribed to the superior
of q monastery in Arabia. who. desi-
rous Of preventing the monks from
sleeping at their nocturnal services,
made them drink the infusion of cof-
fee, upon the report Of some shepherds,
who observed that their focks were
more lively after browsing on the fruit
of that plant. Its reputation rapidly
spread through the adjacent countries,
and in about 200 years it reached Par
is. A single plant brought there in
