The correspondence between Secre.a-
~ Fish and ex- Minister Motley discIoses
the fact THAI our Government is in nc :.
cord with that Of Great Britain, md
most Of the powers Of Continental Eu-
rope. IN the question Of the right OF a
government to recognize a state Of war
or beIhcerency in any other country,
without being called in question for the
exercise Of srch right. It is conceded
therefore, thatthe Queens proclamation
of l>6l, recognizing the Southern rebels
rs beIligerants, does no, in itself eonsti.
tute ground of complaint on our part.
THIS being the present aspect Of the
case, there is no reason why the Ala.
hama claims should ma be speedily and
satisfactorily settled.

TIE HEART THAT KSowErH Irs Cwx
BIrrERNRss. The reason of the strange
disar pearance of Samuel Houston, in
the early part of his life, when he left a
lovely bride and the Goveruorship Of
Tennessee. and exiled himself among the
Indians for many years has, lately, been
revealed. He discovered, in few
hours after his marriage, that his wife
did not love him, but had been urged in
to the marriage by an ambitious family,
while loving another man. He at once
retired from the house, and by his sub.
sequent exile gave the lady the right to
the divorce, which she obtained.

Hats N Caps.

Who, in this community, has not Of
ten, in times past, improved his ap>
pearanee BY buying q new hat or cap
of H. Spencef We venture there are
very few, if any, within . radius of ten
miles around McConnelsYille, that
could answer this question in the neg
ative. Mr.. Spence has been in busi>
ness at his present stand on Center
street for over trenty,four years, and
during that time has been exclusively
in his present trade, and having car
ried on during all that time the most
extensive establishment of the kind
ever in the County, and having al
ways kept the best and most fsshiona-
bic classes of goods, we take it for
granted that he hiss been patronized
by almost, if not quite all citizens.
And, now, ne would say that these
twenty-four years of business life, of
dealing with all our various kinds of
people, OF learning the wants o. our
citizens, has peculiarly fitted him to
give all who may pstronize him the
most complete Subtraction in the way
of a new Spring hat or cap. Expsr-
isnse, all admit, il q great teacher, the
greatest, perhaps, and it il ~indisputa-
bic that the truth of the saying is new
er better exemplifed than in mercan-
tile life. Il not only makes a merch-
ant a good judge of goods, but it also
enables him to learn the art OF buying
cheap. thereby enabling him TO sell
good Goods at q low or reasonable
price. That Mr.. Spence has exper-
fence all will admit, and that he has
profted byi o n will deny that will
step into his store and examine his
large stock of hats and caps and learn
their price. All will remark: 1.-THE
best in point of quality, fashionable
and varied in style and assortment,
and cheap in price p In addition to
his main business, Mr. Spence pays the
highest cash prices for all kinds of
shipping Furs, Nuskrat, Mink, DC;
and he also viii dress oVsr or repair
hats for those desiring.
Give him q call whom in want ofany-
thing in his line.
