the democracy. jeff. Davis secretary,

These men are the favoritcs. In Connec-

Gen. Cockrell because he had served in

promised to educate aud provide for
her until she was eighteen years Of
ace. She was then taken TO England,
India, Germany, China, Australia,
California, and last to Portland, Or
egon, travelling with circus. When
she reached this city, about four
years ago sho attained her eighteenth
yeat, and immediately left the com
pany and took up her home in our
midst. She at once entered print

and has been succeeding admirably,
winning hosts Of friends by her ami
able disposition and modest deport-
