When last Autumn VIC published our First
Epistle with glad tidings of much
Good and Cheap Merchandise,
at the command of all the good people of Por-
tsge and adjacent counties, who Should feel
moved to exchange
Cash, Produce, or good Credit,
therefor, we promised our friends that in due
time. with the revolving seasons, they should
hear from US, in print again. t
We respectfully announce that we are now
Once More at the Front,
thoroughly armed. equipped, provisioned and
ready at all points for
Fgn The Spring Campaign,
A Campaign which We prefer to make wholly
defensive but which if circumstances shall re-
quire. can take the offensive against any hostile
competitor at moments notice But there is
no fear of mercantile war. Nor will Prussia
be again assailed. We flourish the yard stick,
not the bayonet. The pen is mightier than the
sword. Our weapons break no bones, although
the bargains which our pleased customers carry
away, do often break the hearts of others, espe-
cially the ladies disappointed because they came
too late. p
No! all is quiet in Ravenna Plenty blesses
our people, and white robed Peace smiles over
eur land. We tender our unfeigned and
Grateful Acknowledgements
to the people of Portage and adjoining counties
for the

of their patronage during the six months since
we commenced business. They have taken a
new firm of young beginners most cordially by
the hand, and we should be shamefully migrate
full if we failed thus to record their generous,
remunerative and increasing support. By their
kind continuance we have outlived all efforts to
brow-beat and crush US, have distanced all III
walls, baffled all enemies if we had any, and

We pledged ourselves in the future to the
same unremitting efforts to please and profit all
our customers. Their satisfaction is ours.

Pennsylvania is, and has been for long time,
troubled with u living creature in her stom.
ach What it is no one can tell for Ger,
tanty, but physicians in Oswego, where she
was taken recently for treatment, think there
is no doubt of its being a snake. by putting
the finger on the stomach, where the creature
can be distintly seen to lie, it quickly changes
its position, and even when the finger is
within an inch or SO Of the stomach, it will
as quickly move away. All these changes
produce pain to the girl She recently got
hold of the creature With her hand in her
throat, but had to let it 90 TO save herself
from stnngling 1t then returned to her

JeTrson Davis and Gsnsral Lee

The Richmond Dispotch, contrasting The
course of cxPrcsidcnt Davis and Gcner,I
lee, says:
General Lee left us unharmcd by a word
or un act of lis. Mr.. Davis, in tie midst
Of our defeat, prostra.ion, and hclpcssncss
lifts the arm Of defiance, and proclaims The
war not ended. In this tho North calls him
our leader, and thus he inncts uyon us IA
deep wrong and great injury. Mir. Davis
should have kept his lips sealed, as did Gen
crnl Lee. llc las no right, bearing the re.
lntion he does to the Southern people, to put
in danger their peace and welfare by cxprcs.
sing his individual opinions about the scnsi
tive topics that were at The bottom of the
war. General Ice viewed tho situation in
military sense lie considered his country
men Of the South and himself as captivcs
Ind prisoners. His high sense Of honor and
personal dignity would not permit him to rail
ut these who held him i'll custody. He truly
considered that unmanly and pccvsh. TO
indulge the language Of evaporation or the
wall Of lamcntation was equally abhorrcnt to
his ideas Of true manhood. He therefore
bore himself like man Will. conscience
void Of offence, knowing that he WAS at The
mercy Of his cnptors and submitting himself
to their powor. Nothing gave General Lee
so muc'i concern as the haste with which tic
press and public men at the South rushed in.
to tho political canvass deluded by the ignis
f'tuus set up by President Jphnson aftcr his
Infamous $50 900 amnesty proclamation lie
did not think it wise or becoming. Adhe.
ring to his idea of what should be tho con.
duct of cap'ivcs, he feared, and justly feared,
that while this was becoming in tho South, it
would cxaspcrate those who held us at their
mercy, and increase tho severity of the suf.
