QUESTIONS ALL AROUND,

One of the best things we have heard
for some time, fell under our observation
day or two since. Our friend Jones
wanted servant girl in his family, and
went to an intelligence office and made
known his wants to the proprietor. Says
Jones'
"IIave YOU any first rate servant girls
for the kitchen l want one that can
mind her own business and attend to her
work."
ooh, yes" says the proprietor, "any
quantity--let me show you ons."
Jones is at ones introduced to daugh-
ter Of the Emerald Isle, and it is greeted
with
'An' does ye want servant -
Yes" says Jones.
GLOW, many hev yer in yer family 7"
Jones answeied. 'I
"And hev yer hot and cold water ?"
Answers again.
"How many children hev yer ? and do
yer make yer girle wash Sundays? :? Is
the church far away ?"
All these questions, with about Fifty
more were answered heroically by Jsnes,
when he thought it about time to take
the laboring oar himself.
You look" says Jones, II" like prst-
ty nice girl, and l want to ask YOU one
question : Do you play the piano ?"
"No.'
"Then," says Jones, very blandly. "you
won't answer my turn" .-t

No Slaves in Louisiana.

u + p
The New Orleans Neac Era, of late
date, has the following. Is it not 81 gnif-
icant? IA faa
The Union men of Louisiana nave now
a definite object in veiw--adefnitc work
to perform. The question Of slavery is
no l5nger in the political arena in this
State. Slavery has been destroyed, aho-
lshed-not as our French contemporary
would have us believe, by stroke Of the
pen, but by the all-powerful DEGREES Of
military necossity-hy the operation of
causes which our wiscst statesmen fore
saw from the beginning Slavery could
no more survive rebellion and martial
law than a man can survive stab thro'
his heart Louisiana is free State to-
day, and there is no power on earth that
can make her other than free forever
This is the basis of future action. The
proclamation of the commanding General
does but give form and voice to things
already accomplished; it declares great
and apparent fact. WI at so-called slave
holder in Louisiana does not know per-
fectly well that he has no slaves? Can
his oyerseer lash them to unwilling toll !?
No. Even if the attempt were made,
the so-called slave might run off on his
way to the block and there is no power
to drag him to it unwillingly. The Vi
tai condition of slavery is, that the mas
ter shall have power to enforce his will !;
but now it depends upon the viii Of the
'slave," and not Of tie master, whether
or not the latter Sbali be obeyed Most
aptly has the General expressed this
truth by saying that such portion Of the
/ Constitution and laws as relate to slave
ry are inapplicable to any class of per
sons now existing within the limits of the
State. Therefore, slavery as a State in
stitution, is no longer debateable ques-
tion in Louisiana, for the simple reason
that Louisiana is a free State in fact, as
she has been ever. since the Federal oc :
cupation, and because she has now been
declared to be free with the force and
solemnity ofilaw. Therefore, werepeat
the slavery question is no longer in the
political arena here. ii a5 ma.

B=~" Brick" Pomeroy of the La
Crosse Democrat, after patriottcoly in
forming his readers that the President
of half the United States has called five
hundred thousand more men. Goes on
to tell them that the number cannot be
raised. He knows from experience that
Copperheads, or as he calls them Ultra
Democrats, will not go, and gives it as
his opinion that Radical Republicans
will not go, Office holders will not 60,
sick men and aliens will not 90 bust
ness men will not go, and he concludes
that not one-half of FIVE hundred thou
sand men in the North can be found
who will go. This is not the first at
tempt that Brick" has made at proph-
esying, and although we are neither a
prophet, or the son of prophet, we
shall venture to differ with him. and
would say, that from the "signs of the
times, and reports from recruiting posts
it appears very probable before long the
entire quota of FIVE hundred thousand
will have been mustered into service.
"Brick" may know considerable about
the habits ofmusk-rats, trout, quails and
the like, and from them be able to
prophecy concerning the weather, but to
all appearances he knows very little
about the "signs of the times" and is
not competent to judge Of military and
state matters.

DR.. A. N. Reed, Medical Director of the
Army of the Cumberland, under the SAM

There is the most urgent and immediate

the Cumberland, and particularly for the
troops about Knoxville, to prevent and cure
scurvy. Unless. these needs are at once
supplied, the, efficiency of the whole army
will be greatly impaired Of over one hun
