his old friends and many now ones will
flock around where he is to be found at

beset him with business demands Of a
profitable nature as will make him as rich

Corn Co.'s AS FUEL.-The Prai-
RE Farmer has been figuring some
on raising corn and preparing it for
market, and decides that it is better
to she'll the corn than to sell it in
gross, cob and all, as the practice of
some farmers is. By Smelling in a
suitable machine and leaving the
cobs whole, considerable is saved, as
ton Of whole cobs is equal to ton
of coal for fuel. This is an item
worthy of consideration in sections
where much corr is grown and fuel
is scarce and necessarily dear in
market.

The following important intelligence
from Mexico is copied from the New Or
leans Times special dispatches
SOUTHWEST Pass, Feb. 23.-By the
steamship Austin, from Brazos, we have
the following from Mexico:
SAN LUIS PoTosI, Feb. 6.-An engage
ment took place day before yesterday at
detiIe known as La Gallinera, between the
hacienda Of Queeniora and the town Of
Son Felipe, between the forces Of Miramon
under command of Costello and portion
of Escobedo's forces, under Rocha. The
latter has about thousand men with him.
The engagement resulting in the defeat
of the Liberals, three or four hundred of
whom were killed, and nearly all the rest
wounded or taken prisoners. Only five
are known to have escaped.
Among the Liberals killed were Gen.
Herara Cairo and Col. Marcias.
The Imperialst, after triumphing over
the Chinacos of the unfortunates, Herara y
Cairo and Marcus, was endeavoring to
reach Queretaro by forced marches, seri-
ously threatened toy Caravajal.
At the APPROACH Of Costello, Caravaial
withdrew t." San Juan Del Ruiz, which is
twelve leagues distant from this city. His
object u Is well understood, is to inter-
rupt all communication between the two
cite, and await Escobedo's falling on
Costello
Escobedo ordered all the volunteer for
eicners who were found in Miramon's
army to be shot for the depYedations
ayerred to have been committed by them
at Zacatecas. Among those executed was
Joaquin Miramon, the brother Of Miguel.
Gonzales, Ortega and Pattoni are def
nitely to remain at Saltillo in con formity
with the orders received by the chief of the
| escort which has had him in charge, from
the Supreme Government.
| The Peraodico, official of Monterey on
the 10th and 18th, says that the Governor
| OF the State is occupied with the prepars-
tons for the departure of the French Aus
| trian and Belgian prisoners for Matamoras,
| where they will be exchanged for Mexican
prisoners brought by the French steam
| frigate Phlegeton. The order for depart
| ure is now waited from Esoobedo.
The papers from the interior, in order to
justify the butchery committed upon the
| Miriam on, are charging them with all the
| depredations committed at Zacetecas.
The Rio Grande Courier Of the 18th in
slant, says that Gen. Antonio Canales, ia
ther of Serdanels Canales, late command
| ant of Matam oras, ia dead.
Gen. Mejia is very i'll. The physicians
| agree that he cannot recover.
New YORK, Feb. 23.-The steamer Lau-
rent sailed to-day, with several hundred
tons of goods for the Paris Exposition.
A Richmond dispatch says that Virginia
will be the first of the Southern States to
agree with Congress.

people out of their money. A few
days ago we published the charge of
Judge Ingraham, of the New York
Court Of Oyer and Terminer. to the
Grand Jury, instructing them to in
quire into the lottery business, in
Guiding gift enterprises, and make
due presentation of all such violations
of law. The Grand Jury took up
the subject, and presented these "gift
enterprises" as "public nuisances.
detrimental to the morals Of the COM
munity." The extent to which the
business is carried on is surprising.
None of these enterprises are to be
trusted. They are schemes OF rob-
berry, violations of law in. their form,
and swindling in their intent. Yes
terday one of the most patent and
barefaced of these fraudulent enter.
prises was brought to our notice. A
fellow who signs himself u. FL. Fay,
St. Louis, No." pretends to be act
ing in behalf, Of the "Southern Aid
Society,"" and to have been requested
by a number Of manufacturers and
merchants to get up Gift Concert,
the profits of which will "be used for
the benefit of the Widows and Or
phans of our brave men who fell in
| the late war"
1t is sufficient to say here that the
whole thing is a fraud. No man by
the name Of Fay or any other name,
is authorized or requested by any
person in St. Louis or elsewhere to
| give a Gift Concert in this city in
| behalf Of the Southern Aid Society,
or any other society. 1t is all false
and fraudulent pretence. No green
backs and no house and lot have
been donated in St. Louis for any
such purpose. We have, however,
a letter before us from one of the in
terror towns in this State, to one OF
the business houses in this city, in
