Capt. AdOlphus Bisby, Esq. is Just the
man and the only one ct to Gil that i'm.

to blush unseen and waste his slo6uenoa
on the prairie air. Hsis quite portly and
not so very green. His stately form
would eli senator's chair. Other men

beaver of which the hat was made. All
the Royal Family, male and female, have
ordered hats of the same style. Il is said
that Macmillan wishes TO take hat Of
the same style to Austria, the climate of
Mexico having q deleterious effect on the
fur. Louis Napoleon advises Max. to
take his hat to Poland, but be is afraid
that the Russian Bear might ruin his bat
by too hearty embrace, and cause bad
headache, if his head should happen to
be inside at the same time. You may be
sure that the railroad interests will be
safe in Esq. Bizby's hands; for he mas

Bizby an able advocate. He is a Free
Mason, Free Thinker and Free DFinker,
belongs to the Good Templars, Sons of
Temperance, and others too numerous to
mention. He is the oldest kind of an
Odd Fellow, independent as the Fourth

new society, that may hereafter be ins
stituted. The release of JEFF. Davis BE-
ing one of the prominent questions of the
day. the following statement of Capt.
AdoiPhus Bizby, Esq's., position on that
important question, it lie hoped will prove
satisfactory to all concerned and nncon-
cerned. Capt. Bizby is highly gratifed
10 learn that JEFF has been taken from his
case-mate, which was not suitable mate
for such a distinguished man, to nice
parlor, where it is hoped, he will have q
mahogany rocking chair, and the Balm of
a thousand and one flowers to put on his
head, until Congress makes an appropri-
alton for the purpose of fitting rooms at
the White House for his accommodation,
where Andrew Johson can have the full
benefit Of his experience, and ascertain
the terms upon which jeff is willing to
come into the Union and help administer
the government. Let every soldier bear
10 grateful remsmberance the hero Of IA
derSonVitLe.
Capt. Bizby not possessing the facili-
ties for travelling, or the time to see the
members of the Legislature personally,
SO as to take them by the button.hole,
desires to insert the following circular
which he sigas with xxx, two for the
