Commissioners is heartily commended,

Forty years ago, when the making of
Chewing Tobacco was confined to the
country districts of Virginia, old man
Spencer, of Henry county, found market
for his product by wagOning it through
Georgia and the CRrolinas. At that time
the consumption of tobacco in those States
did not equal the annual sales of any Of
the prominent tobaccenists now located
in our city. Mr.. Spencer's admiration
for the great statesman induced him to
call his fayorIte brand calhoun" and
since the development of the photographic
art, perfect likeness of Calhoun orna-
ments every box. Large crops are closely
selected to obtain even a few leaves wor-
thy of this brand. This fact, in cOnnec-
ton with it's high cost Isl 80 per pound },
has prevented this tobacco from being
generally used. The select few who
know the charm of Calhoun can be sup
piled by Levi j. Gazan, under Pulaski
house-AdU.

The Blade He Surrendered at Mobile
Bay to DO Returned to Him.
Twenty-one years ago last August Capt.
James d. Johnston, of this city, COM
manded the war ship Tennessee, which
belonged to the Confederate navy. In
August, 1864, occurred a hotly fought
naval engagement in Mobile Bay. Over
powered by superior numbers, the gal
liant commander and crew of the Ten
nessee were compelled to surrender to
Admiral Farragut, who commanded the
Federal fleet. The sword OF the Ten
nessee's commander passed into the
hands Of Farragut. From that day until
yesterday Capt. Johnston heard not a
word of his sword. Yesterday he re-
ceived this letter:

mlral. Capt. Johnston has replied to Mr..
Farragut and told him where TO send the

zen Of Mobile, who inscribed the Cap
tain's name upon the blade.
