Gently purchased by the subscribers, will, in

success in the future which the Magazine has
never yet realized, II their friends and the
public shall yield them support worthy of
so important on enterprise, loOkingt to the ad-
vancement Of the highest literary interest Of
the Confederacy. E4s
Argument or appealin behalf of the im-
portance of an elevated literature to our
country, the absence Of which has hitherto
made ,is aby-word of reproaches among the
older nations, and even now initiates against
our interests abrond, need not be addressed
to those whom this circulhr is designed to
reach. rW '. ," .. ~
But to the attainment of this great end,
something more is necessary than mere Ver-
bal expressions ofsympathy and encourage
ment. The friends of Southern literature
must foster the efforts Of our literary men 10
secure for us worthy position in the world
ofletters. ,., r.t sb,a,srL
We design the Messenger to be an enter
prise worthy Of support Of all classes Of our
people. We shall aim chiefly to secure for

at large. To this end We shall give our at
tention to and solicit contributions from
Southern writer's in oil the departments of
Literature. Poetry, Romance, Review. Criti-
cism, In short, every subject whose promi-
nence is sufficient to entitle 1t to notice, Will
have its due share Of attention.
We earnestly solicit the assistance OF our
friends throughout the Confedeyaoy in the
enlargement Of our subscription list, which
must be increased to enable us TO meet the
heavy pecuniary outlay 10 which we shall BIO

arrangements which would insure a regular
supply of paper, upon account Of the irIeg-
ularity and uncertainty OF transportation for

FIELD AND FInEsIDE TO Raleigh and COM
bined these Two sterling Literary Journals.
The MERCURY is therefore merged into the

so published until tho state of the country
will justify divergcment, when both pa:

The entire editorialand contributorial corps
of both papers are retain cd upon the emerg-

of contradiction, that the extensive and
splendid array Of combined talent now en-
ployed in writing for the FIELD AND FIRE

How TO MARRY A BELLE Cana
da rich old widowsr is said to have
practised an ingenious scheme to gain
the hand of the belle of the village.
He hired IN old gypsy to tell tde
young lady's fortune, and instructed
her to state thata wealthy old widower
efgiving a description of his personal
appearance and dress) would pay her
visit and offer himself, and that she
would accept, and be left wealthy
young widow before the close of the
year. Her next husband would be a
young man she liked at present. The
gypsy did her duty, the old man pre-
-scnted himself, and the marriage fol-
lowed. He is likely to live many
years. aud the village belle may be a
grandmother before she becomes d
widow.

Many years Of my past Life hars bsea

salutary purpose, and TO place before my
friends and the public generally, at she
lowest possible market price, and in such

truly genuine impsrsad article.
Twenty-Five years business transactions
With the largest and most respectable ez-
porting houses in France and Great Britain
have Afforded me unsurpassed facilities for
supplying our home market with Wines,
Liquors and Liqqares OF the best and most
approved brands in Europe, in addition to
my own distillery in Holland for the manu-
iacturs Of the s'Schiedam Schnapps."
The latter, so long tested and approved
by the medical faculties Of the United
Statss, West Indies and South America as
al Invaluable Therapeutic. wholesome,
pleasant and perfectly safe beverage in all
climates and during all seasons, quickly
excited the cupidity Of the home manufac-
turcrs and venders Of spurious article
under the same name.
I trust that I have, after much toll and
expense, surrounded all MY importatlons
with safeguards and directions which, with
ordinary circumspection, will insure their
delivery, "a I receive them from Europe, to
ali my customers.
l would. however, recommend, y: AL
cases where 1t is possible, that order. be
sent direct to my Depot, % Beaver street,
New York, or that purchases be made OF
my accredited agents.
In addition to large stock OF Winos,
Brandies, &C., in wood, have 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 I esn especially recommend to
all connoisseurs Of these rare luxuries.
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, OF calling
personally at the Depot, in order TO insure
the fulillInc1lt OF their favors from the pre-
sent large and well selected assortment

Hanging Returned Confederates in
Missouri. ~

Mr.. Hamilton Kelly. parolfd Con.
federate, was yesterday set upon by a
mob at Beger Station, on the Pacific
railroad, in this county, and murdered
He was beaten almost to death, and then
taken and hung. Kelly had gone into
the Rebel army under Jackson's call,
and had been sent to Virginia and re.
mained there until Lee surrendered.
He came home about three weeks ago,
remained one or two days, and was or.
dered by some unknown parties to leave
the State in twentv-four hours or the
consequences would be terrible. He
left for while, bnt returned to Berger
where he once lived, and met with the
above sad fate at the hands of some law
less Germans. He leaves wife and
children almost destitute.
There is scarcely a day passes but we
hear of some one, either paroled soldier
or citizen, being ordered from the com.
ty, with terrible threats of vengeance il
the order is disregarded. Our county is
in a reign ofterror. For the last few
days there seems to be systematic plan
among a portion of the German element
of this county to drive from It every
American that is in the least bad odor
with them. We were no apologist for
the rebellion, or for rebels, nor do we
wish to speak disparaglngly of the Ger
mans, for some of them are among our
best citizens But such conduct by any
class Of citizens is truly reprchensible,
and stbe stopped. The civil officers
of the county cannot we'll do twill the
military Are they in ignorance Of the
state of affairs existing here, or are they
Indifferent to them? We believe it to
be the former, for it would be almost
worth mans life to take an active part
in reporting these outragcs.

Cannot our Military authorities do

our authorities will give this matter
