STEWART THE MERCHANT MI1LIoNAIF

STEWART THE MERCHANT MILLIONAIRE.
He has many partners, but they are only
partners in profits He is the sole master
of all that is bought and sold, He knows
every article that comes in or goes out of
the store. No bundle leaves without a
check. He selected shawl for his wife
one day and neglected to check it it could
not leave the building. No merchant in
New York works so many hours or gives
such undivided attention to his business.
His rooms are in his down town stores He
comes down early, takes his dinner about
five o'clock, and returns and remains at his
work until late at night He finds his
pleasure in his business. He is as difficult
to approach as the Grand Lama Go to
the store and you will be met at the door by
a courteous gentleman, once an affluent mer-
chant who kept his own establishment. To
your question if Mr., Stewart is in ? res
ponse comes, What is your business 2"
81 want to see Mr.. Stewart ?" " You can't
see him unless I know your business" 1t
is private, you say. Mr. Stewart has no
private business I must know what you
want, sir" If your statement is satisfacto-
ry you are allowed to pass up stairs Here
you are met by another bland, though port
ly gentleman, once a judge of one of our
courts-now the confidential business agent
and companion of Mr.. Stewart, to whom he
devotes all his time. He subjects you to
a series of cross questions as rigorous as if
you were on the witness stand at court. He
keeps you from Mr.. Stewart if he can. If
he can't, when your turn comes, he ushers
you into little box, ten by twelve, where
sits the autocrat of New York merchants
He receives you with blank countenance
and cold eye. His voice is suppressed, his
face inanimate and his air inpatient You
hurry through your business and need a
strong temptation to induce you to run the
gauntlet again.

THE Springfield Mass. ] Republican says
a young married woman seventeen years of
age was left to suffer and finally die shock
ing death for want Of medical attendance,
because it was uncertain whether she be-
longed to Monson or Palmer The select
men of Monson refused to assist her. Those
Of Palmer paid no attention to her When
she died the former buried her without a
funeral ceremony Massachusetts was al
ways noted for its philanthrophy.

Thou shalt have one God only: Who
Would be at the expense Of two
No craven images may be
Worshipped, save in the currency;
Swear not at all; since for thy curse
Thine enemy is none the worse
At church on Sunday to attend
Will serve to keep the world thy friend
Honor thy parents; that is, all
From whom Advancement may befall.
Thou shalt not kill but needst not strive
Oficiously to keep alive.
Adultery it is not fit
Or safe (tor woman) to commit.
Thou shalt not steal an empty feat,
When tbs so lucrative to cheat
Bear not false witness: let thy lie
Have time on its own wings to fly;
Thou shalt not covet but tradition
Approves all forms of competition.

On tho 18th of February last, fire occurred in
our block which destroyeda number of buildings,
and our own with the rest. We trusted our books,

it we found that
Everything had been Destroyed.
We send you the safe, with what is left ofthe pa

the curiosity to know how neighbors Jared in this

In Perfect Condition.
This led us to further investigation and we found
to our astonishment that from the large amount Of
combustble material in Messrs. Mex. q cellar

much greater heat than that of our own, we being
in the clothing business and had but little in the

THE NEWS.


Although the letter Of jefferson Davis TO
the Georgia Senators, which We publish else-
where, is dated tue 18th Of November last, i:a
Whtg Is to be taken as evidence that the
views then expressed by the writer are ap-
plieable to the present state Of af1airs. We
=. find nothing in 1t to Justify the expectation
:. that peace is obtainable through any negotia-
tione with thc rebel government.
Information has been received by the Navy
Department that since the capture Of Fort
Fisher five blockade runners, laden with val
uab1e cargoes, have been captured while at-
tempting to run into New Inlet.
Our dispatches contain the statement that
our representative naval force in European
watcrs is to be advanced both in numbers
and class Of vessels, to give foreign Govern
neuts m idea Of our position as a nars1
power, and the effect will doubtless be aalu-
taty. We mag not greatly Tighten them,
but they will see the folly Of attempting to
friEhtcn LIS, and reciprocal respect grow
thereby.
The story comes that Richmond is under
mined, and that before 1t will be surrendered
it will be blown into the air. Bcsh. That is
not the way it Is done at all. It will quietly
pass into our Hands and not. stick nor
brick will be disturbed. The Southern heat,
mud as It is, cannot be fired into destroying
its own cities. It will do fora threat and there
1t ends:
In his letter to Georgia Senators, given
elsewhere in our dispatches, jeff. Davis
makes strong argument against State ac-
4ion, on the ground that false idea would
be disseminated that some Of the States de-
sired to abandon their associates, and 80
weaken the spirit Of mutual confidence and
support. He says It is obvious that assocla-
ted 6tates in convention must meet on the
bnsls that no State should, against it's own
will, be bound by the decision OF the
Convention, or that it should be 60
bound. In the former case the in
dependence Of tue South would virtu-
ally be recognized. In the latter case the
North would dominate- Another difficulty
would arise from q conflict Of jurisdiction.
1fr. Davis thinks Virgins would not enter
into convention with . delegation from what
the enemy call West VII sinia, and that the
United States would not consent that West
Virginia be deprived OF he- pretensions to
euual rights, after formally admitting her is
8 State. and allowing her to vote at the Presi-
