Commodore Mutt and Mimic War
rem, increased on Saturday, and in
the afternoon a vast crowd of ladies
and children attended their 1evee at

highly pleasing and amusing. The
dignified bearing of the General at
tracted much admiration, and every
heart was won by the elegance and
intelligence of the diminutive ladies'.
Commodore Nuts droll representa-
tons kept the house in a roar. His
rendition of Captain Jinks, Of the

vehement applause. at night the
house was again crowded. Their
visit to this city was a magnificent
success. They leave this morning

named James Mckinney, in whose
veins flows the blood of the chivalry,
while passing down Water Street, be-
car1e enamored with q uiee coat
which Harry Joseph, or his assistant,
had hung out to attract custom.
James eyed the glossy integument,
and then took a survey of the sur
roundings. Seeing no one about. he
quickly threw himself inside the coat
and walked off. He was seen, how
ever, and soon the police were on the
trail, aud James was hived, When
arrested, he averred very emphatically
that he had bought the coat in Louis

UNToN Prayer MEETTNG.-The
prayer meeting at the Baptist Church
Saturday morning was one of tho
most pleasant and profitable Of the
week. Short and pointed remarks
were made by Rev. Mr.. Martin and
Rev. Mr. Andrus. The following
touching petitions we're found in the
box prepared for the purpose:
"A young man, now sick, and for
whose recovery there is little ground
to hope, asks the prayers Of this As
sociation that he may be restored to
health, if it be Gods viii, but especi-
ally that he may be enabled to en-
brace the Saviour with his whole
heart. He Is humble and penitent,
but has not yet found peace in be-
lieving. He is searching the Scrip
lures and longing for salvation.
Brethren, pray for him.
"a PASTOR"
A father asks the prayers of this
meeting for the conversion Of his
son."
A husband and father has been
long incorporate. His terrible pas
sion for drink has gained such power
over him that all human help is vain.
The wife and mother, in her deep sor-
row, pleads for the prayers of this
meeting, that God may. in his rich
mercy, interpose to save the husband
and father from in."-EPresented

Hint 10 News Dealers.

We received the following last night:
Publishers Union AND AMERICAN: In
coming 10 the city to-day by the Chatta-
nooga road, inquired of the news-boy on
the train for the UEIOE AND AMERICAN.
He replied that lac had none. / often
travel over this road, and always want the
paper Of the day, but sm scarcely ever able
10 get YOURS. Why Is il? To-day heard
many inquiries for the Union AND AMER
GcAN and the same reply was received 10y
all. /, of course do not wish TO draw in
yidious comparisons, but prefer your pa
per and should like to get it when q" on the
wing" as do regularly at home. }. Il.
SATURDAY, Jan. %, 1869.
I'VE cannot answer the complainant in
this case otherwise than by saying that we
furnish the news-dealer on the road in
question, all the papers he orders; and we
suppose the demand exhausts his supply
before the meeting Of the outgoing and
incoming trains. We have daily complaints
of similar kind upon all the other roads
ON all which the UNION AND AMERICAN is
taken every morning and sold. If it is in
greatest demand and the supply is sooner
exhausted than that of any other, the only
remedy that we know of, is, that dealers
should provide themselves with a greater
number Of copies. We supply them on
liberal terms, aud afford them every ad-
vantage TO make profits. Whether they
shall do so in future or not, we take the
occasion to say, that the cheaPness in the
price of the UNION AND AMERICAN, and
its completeness and fulness in all It's news
and editorial departments is carrying II to
every mock and corner Of this and adIoln-
ing States. Without canvassers or other
unusual means our footing up last night |
showed an actual increase of one hundred |
and fpentv tuosubscribers, embracing names |
from each division of our own State,
Georgia, Alabama and MissiSsiPpi-what |
We call fair days work.
We hope in future our friend j. b. Will
be able to get the paper of his choice on
the train.

We have learned with deep regret Of the

dence of his son-in-law Robert McEwen,

ary 90, A. L. 1869; and in common with
all the citizens of the community, mourn

we adopt the following resolutions
Reso we'd, That by the decease of A. W,
Putnam, Phoenix Lodge No. l3l has been
deprived of one of its brightest ornaments ;
the State of a historian, who by his study,
learning and research, had become thor
oughly identified with its annals the city
of an enterprising and benevolent citizen
the poor Of a warm sympathizer and
friend the church Of faithful and devo-
ted pillar; and his children of an affection
