Twenty-Five years business transactions

trust that I have, after much toll and
expense, surrounded all my importations
with safeguards and directions which, with
ordinary circumspection, will insure their
delivery, as I receive them from Europe, to
all my customers.
I would, however, recommend, in all
cases where it is possible, that orders be
sent direct to my Depot, % Beaver street,
New York, or that purchases be made of
my accredited agents.
In addition to a large stock OF Wines,
Brandies, &C., in wood, have a consider
able supply of old tried foreign Wines, en-
bracing vintages of many past years, bot
tied up before the commencement of the
war, which can ESPECIALLY recommend to
all connoisseurs OF these rare Injuries.
In conclusion, would specially call the
attention Of my Southern customers to the
advantage to be derived by transmitting
their orders without loss of time, or calling
personally at the Depot, in order to insure
the fulfillment Of their favors from the pre-
sent large and well selected assortment.

ron o,fe6ecasion during the war in vir-
pinia. General Lee was lying asleep by the
Way-side, when an army Of 1900 men
passed By with hushed voices and foot
steps, lest they should disturb his slum-
bers. &&e
O'ercomc with weariness and care,
The war-worn veteran lay
On Ss.se green turf of his native land,
And slumbered by the way.
The breeze that sighed, across his brow,
And smoothed it's deepened lines,
Fresh from his own loved mountains bore
The murmur Of their pines,,
And the glad sound of waters;
The blue, ,,rejoicing streams,
Whose sweet, familiar tones were blent
With the music Of his dreams;
They brought no sound Of battles din,
Shrill fife or clarion,
But only tenddrest memories
= OF his own fair Arlington.
While thus the chieftain slumbered,
Forgetful of his care,
The iluii0wI tramp cf thousands
Came sounding thro' the air;
With ringing spur and sabre,
And trampling feet, they come
Gay plume and rustling banner,
And fife, and trump, and drum;
But soon the foremost column
Sees where, beneath the shade,
In slumber, calm as childhood,
:, Their weari9d chief is laid;
And down the line murmur
From lip to lip there ran,
Until the Silly whisper
Had spread to rear and van;
And DER the host, silence
AS deep and sudden fell,
As tho some mighty wizard
Had hushed them with a spell;
And every sound was muffled,
And every soldiers tread
Fell lightly as mothers
Round her baby's cradle-bcd;
And rank, and file, and column,
So softly on they swept;
1t seemed ghostly army
Had passed him as he slept;
But mightier than cnchantment
Was that whose magic wove
The spell that hushcd their voices
Deepest reverence and love.

The Volunteer Counsel.
A THRILLING STORY.


John Taylor was licensed, when a
youth Of twenty-five, to practice at
the bar. He was poor, but well
educated, and possessed extraordinary
genius. He married a beauty, who
afterwards deserted him for another.
On the 9th of April, 1910, the
Court House in Clarksville, Texas,
was crowded to overfowing. An
exciting case was about to be tried.
George Hopkins, a wealthy planter,
had offered a gross insult to Mary
Ellison, the young and beautiful wife
of his overseer. The husband threat
ened to chastise him for the outrage,
when Hopkins went to Ellison's house
and shot him in his own door. The
murderer was bailed to answer the
charge. This occurrence produced
great excitement, and Hopkins, in
order to turn the tide of popular
indignation, had circulated reports
against her character, and she sued
him for SANDER Both suits were
pending-for murder and slander.
The interest became deeper when it
was known that Pike and Ashley, of
Arkansas, and S. S. Prentiss, of New
Orleans, by enormous fees, had been
retained to defend Hopkins.
Hopkins was acquitted. The Texas
lawyers were overwhelmed by their
opponents. 1t was fight of dwarf
against giant.
The SANDER case was for the 9th,
and the throng of spectators grew in
numbers as well us excitement; public
opinion was setting in for Hopkins;
his money had procured witnesses
who served his powerful advocates.
When the SANDER case was called,
Mary Ellison was left without an at
torney-an had withdrawn.
''Haye you no counscl?" inquired
Judge Mills, looking kindly at the
plaintiff
''No. sir: they have all deserted me,
and l am too poor to employ any
any more, replied the beautiful Mary
bursting into tears.
''In Slch case, will not some chival-
rous member of the profession
volunteer?'' said the Judge, glancing
around the bar.
Ihe thirty lawyers were silent.
81 will, your HONOR" said voice
from the thickest part of the crowd,
behind the bar.
At the sound of that voice MANY
started it was unhealthy, sweet and
mournful. The first sensation was
changed into laughter, when tall,
gaunt, spectral figure elbowed his way
throught the crowd, and placed him
self within the bar. His clothes
looked so shabby that the ocurt hest
tated to let the case proceed through
his management.
'sHas your name been entered on
the rolls Of the State?" demanded the
Judge.
''It is immaterial," answered the
stranger, his thin, bloodless lips
curling up with d sneer. "Here is
my license from the highest tribunal
OF Americana and he handed the
Judge a broad parchment, The trial
went on.

A very good way to encourage manufactures
and increase the number of manufactures
in our midst, is to patronize and promote the
interests and growth Of those we have already.
And while our citizens continue indifferent to
the welfare of those already in operation, and
prefer to send off for articles or buy those
brought from other quarters, rather than pur-
chase those manufactured here, they cannot
expect our manufactures to flourish or in
crease very rapidly. So far as our experience
and observation go, there is little or no dis
position prevalent amongst our citizens to
seek out and patronize home manufactures of
any kind, in preference to those manufactured
elsewhere, aud we think the general testimos
ny of manufacturers, of whatever kind in
Keokuk, will be found in support of the prop
osition, that our citizens seldom buy of them
if they can get the article they want else.
where.
If we would develop the manufacturing in
terests of the city, then let US begin by cult
waiting the habit and encouraging the practice
of patronzing our own Keokuk manufactu-
rers and mechanics in every department
where they can supply our wants. And thus
we will furnish the means by which they can
enlarge and improve their facilities, and be
enabled to produce better articles and at
cheaper rates. That, we take it, is the direct
liberal and sensible way to encourage '.home
manufactures and its beneficial effects will
be seen and realized. while mere talk about
it, without corresponding action, viii amount
to nothing at all.
But there are some branches or lnannf4c-
ture that might be introduced here, and
should be, that will require direct aid, in some
shape, from our citizens, to induce parties to
engage in the enterprise. There are build
ings and lots, and money in the hands of our
citizens that might be invested on some terms
or other in such new enterprises, and thereby
inducement and encouragement could be of
fered to competent parties to take hold We
did not wait for persons to come in from
abroad and take hold on their own notion to
build railroads for us. but our citizens en-
gagged in the matter themselves, with liberal
ity and enthusiasm, and subscribed immense
sums for their construction. viii not every
body admit that money subscribed, contribut-
ed or invested by our citizens in manufactures
would yield larger per cent of benefits to
the city than money invested in railroads? If
any doubt it, let them try the experiment;
and let those who have faith in it, manifest
their faith by their works, for the salvation
Of Keokuk depends upon our manufactures.
The right spirit with concert of action, and
the accustomed liberahty and enterprise of our
citizens, directed in this channel at the pres
eut time, could not fail to result in immense
advantage to the city
