PLANTERS AND MERCHANTS WARE
uousE-HuTdHEsoX & SARvAY. II
will be roccollected by our readers
that when this large building was
completed, nearly year ago, we
published an extended notice of the
structure, and described the superior
advantages offered BY the proprietors
I-Mossrs. Hutchinson & sarvay-for
receiving, handling, safe keeping
and delivering tobacco. :.
The immense success achieved by
this warehouse during the past year
-as shown by the returns Of the
number Of hogsheads inspected in
this city last year, and which places
this warehouse in front of all the
other Richmond warehouses, in point
Of actual number of hogsheadS in
spected, is tho very best evidence we
can offer that We were fully endorsed
in all we said by the producers of to-
bacco in Virginia, West Virginia,
and North Carolina, as well as by the
leaf dealers of Cincinnati, Louisville,
St. Louis, Paducah, GAINESVILLE, and
other large tobacco markets of the
West.
We refer to this subject now to
correct u very erronerous impress
sion that has gone forth to the conn
try to the effect that the action of
Governor Kemper last December has
caused the warehouse to be closed
and the copartncrship Of Hutchinson
e. Sarvay to be dissolved,
We have thoroughly Investigated
the matter, and find that Governor
Kemper has no more to do with this
warehouse than with the army and
navy of the United States, or the
control Of any farm, mill, iron fur
mace, private residence, church, or
any other property in the State
Nor did he in any way undertake to
interfere, and the Planters and Mer-
chants Warehouse will continue bus
mess with Hutchinson & Sarvay us
proprietors, and VIC call special at
tention to their card in another col
umn, and feel sure that planters can
find no better representatives Of their
interest than the proprietors of the
Planters and Merchants Warehouse.
Our ontcrprising townsman, John
G. Stortz, who has been prosecuted
by christians" ~ because he en-
gagged in business that did not suit
their "pious" notions, hasshown that
he can rise above them, and has done
very worthy act, by setting out and
adjoining the old Presbyterian church
lot with beautiful forest trees, at his
own expense.
BURNED TO DEATH.-On Monday
last at Clifton, while a daughter of
Mr.. Eli Butcher, named Eliza, and
aged about Is years, was engaged in
kindling a fire, her clothes caught
fire, and was so badly burned before
assistance reached her, that she died
on Tuesday morning.
County CoURr.-Next Monday,
March 10Th, the regular term of the
County Court for the trial of causes,
commences. This will be Il very i'm
portant term of Court, and no doubt
large number of our patrons will
be in the city during its session. We
ask them to come prepared toremem-
Der the printer.
There is movement on foot to
start . temperance revival here in
the course of a short time. The re-
vival is not SO important as the stop
page of whiskcy drinking by many
of their former temperance lecturers,
who have of late become sadly de-
morali2ed.
Frozen apples make the best cider.
For an cxempliGcation Of this fact,
we refer you to the Andes Saloon; if
cider is not what you drink, you can
get any other kind of drink you
want,
1t is now about the right time to
take a peep into the cellar and sec
how preparations are down there fol
providing the family with fever and
ague, and other luxurics, when
spring opens.
