A General i'm st. Louis.

About MAY 1st, d~iscloses Redfeld,
General Schofeld will demonstrate to
President Garfield that it will be i'm
practicable TO stay in New Orleans
during the summer, owing to the
probability Of sickness there, and sug-
gest st. Louis as a temporary location
for headquarters. The business men
of st. Louis will make an effort to have
the headquarters at hat city perma-
nently, and, if necessary, on attempt
will be made to change the boundaries
of the department to accommodate

JACKSON, February 6.~You will
understand that a few months ago
this state elected a republican gov
ernor, and since that dreaded hour
the sun has not shone upon this hap
Ply land, and the corn and cotton are
rotteningin the fields. Merchants are
breaking everywhere, and the jobbers,
particularly of Louisville, have lost
considerable money. There were FIVE
assignments made just around the i'm
mediate vicinity OF this town, the
county-s scat of Madison. This Ocea-
stoned the gathering Of some twenty
FIVE or thirty drummers here,
looking after their respective claims,
and among them Mr.. Ed. Barrow,
representing j.. l.. Warren q Co. who
were interested in several OF them. 1t
was rumored about Friday that there
would be another assignment made,
Mr.. Barrow, knowing he had a claim
upon the party, loitered about the
courthouse all day, and had so ingra-
tiated himself into the favor Of the
kind register as to procure the key to
his office, and permission TO stay in
the courthouse all night. There upon
the floor, with the key in his pocket,
a shotgun on one side and a bulldog
on the other, he spent the night sweet
ly dreaming how beautifully be had
come the giraffe over his brother
drummers by securing his claim in
making the party prefer him in his
trust. The next morning he awoke,
but the party had, as he Thought, not
come forth from the bush with this
dreaded deed of trust to be recorded.
So he went to breakfast light hearted
and happy. He was told at the oreak-
'ast-table that the assignment would
be made that morning, but he was Of a
very different opinion. He said the
door was locked, and that he had the
key, and had him foul. He finished
his breakfast and went back TO the
courthouse to take his stand. when
upon entering the registers office he
found tie deed was done" Mr
Barrow thinks the man entered The
Office over his sleeping body or through
a window. Be this as it may, he was
beaten at his own game.

General Trade.

The heavy and almost inoessant
rains Of the past several days have
practically settled the planters pros
pects for saving his ungathered cotton.
The high wind gales which swept over
the entire south on Saturday and Sun

cotton yet in the fields than bad all Of
che severe weather ofthe previous three
