A game of chess between player Of
forzheim, in Baden. and another in c
ew York, began in 1859. has just ended
ter sixteen years playing, the New

The farmers In the vicinity of Charles
IN. s. c., have shipped north this sea-

Hochstadter & Co., of San Francisco,
who are the correspondents OF the well
