LOUISVILLE, KY, Jan. |, IS

LOUISVILLE, hE., Jan. i, 1850.
DEAR SIR:-After returning our
thanks for past favors and wishing you
a prosperous and happy new year, we
take this method to announce To YOU
and the public, that we have withdrawn
from the tobacco Board of Trade"
and i'm doing so, we have not IA word to
say against it; it was good institution
in 'its day" Recently it has been
guilty of some follies that we did not
approve but protested against, hence we
are involved in no vexatiOus and ex-
pensive lawsuits with any of the buy
ers.
The fees for selling tobacco, to both
buyer and seller, may, and perhaps
were, not too high at the time of their
adoption (sOon after the war; when
labor, rents, money and in fact every
thing was high, and at a time, too,
when it was almost indispensably nee
essary to employ travelling agents; now
since there has been quite a deprecia-
ton in value of everything, and espe-
cially since the tobacco market of Lou
isville is so well established and known
to be the leading market for all shades
and grades of tobacco, and there are so
many avenues of information opened
up, and leading to almost every mans
door, acquainting him daily with the
state of the market, ETC., we can see no
good reason for continuing the old ex-
pensive custom of employing men to
canvass the country soliciting consiSn-
ments of tobacco. Therefore we have
concluded to dispense with the services
of that class of gentlemen above alluded
10, and appropriate their salaries i'm an
other direction, or, more properly speak
ing, leave il where il legitimately be-
longs, in the pockets of the seller.
We can do this only by reducing our
fees, or by system of rebate, either of
which was violation of the rules of
the 'Board of Trade" Another rule
of the "Board" is to deduct ten pounds
for samples, this we think is not right,
but like all other rules, members are
bound to respect it, or abide the conse-
quences of violation.
We think we have given reasons
enough for Withdrawing from the Sin
stitutiOn," together with an Unborn
feeling to conduct our business i'm our
own way, subject only to the approval
of our own conscience and those for
whom we transact business.
All tobacco received after this day we
will sell at a reduction of 30 cents each
to seller and buyer. Rejection fee will
be Sl.5O instead of $3.50 as heretofore.
We will make no deduction for samples,
instead of 10 lbs. as heretofore.
Soliciting liberal share of your pat
ronage, we are,
Very Respectfully yours,
GILBERT, HUDSON X Co.

The Hartford Herald Fair.

Pursuant to notice, the Messrs. Bar
rett & Bro. held their tobacco and corn
fair at Hartford, Ky, last Friday,
The affair was of sufficient Importance
to draw out several of the tobacco men
of this city.
The following persons went down
Mr.. Henry Glover, of the Louisville
Warehouse Mr.. R. p. Hare, of the
Falls City; Col. Hayden Webb, of the
Pickett; Mr.. Vaughan, "A large city and
country buyer, and Mr.. u. J. Daniel.
Some Of the other houses We're repre-
scented by their travelling agents.
The weather had not been such rs to
make Il good season for tobacco for
some weeks, and the number of sam
Piles were cut short in consequence.
Only about sixty samples of tobacco
were entered, and about one hundred
of corn. 1t is thought that two hun
dred of tobacco would have been on
hand if there had been suitable wealth
er to get it i'm order. The tobacco i'm
that section this year is not particular
ly fine, but makes good show on ac-
count of good color.
IA. corn the samples were particular
ly good. Tho first premium for bread
corn was given To fine sample of what
is known as flint, or hominy 0Gfn, The
millers say this kind keeps best after
being ground. There are objections to
its genera! Use for family bread corn
The ears are small and hard to shell by
hand, and the grain is sefy finty, max.
ing it undesirable for stock, when tbere
IL more than needed for bread. The
yield is fair, ~ it grows often two Oh
three ears to the stalk
The award were made by competent
judges, and there seemed to be little ol
no ground for complaint, As Tia.
names We're called out the premiums
were paid in gold
Mr.. Tichenor, OF Ohio county, had q
fine sample of cigar leaf entered, and
as there was no ring for it, Col. Barrett
awarded it, as special premium, a copy
of the Fdrme,'s Home Journal for one
year.

Many girls in their teens are compelled

soon become pale and bloodless, the
eyes are dim and languid, their brain is

they are cross and fretful, have hysteri-
cal symptoms and are losing strength
daily. If this condition is not remedied
