mitfering no little from petty theft Articles
of small value would disappear, none could
tell how, Last week one of'our citizens was
deprived ot' ft small sum of money, and in
such a way, as to fasten suspicion upon a
young man by the name of Barry. He was
accused of the crime, but of course stoutly
denied it. Denial however, did not prevent
his being brought to trial, where lie was bound
over to appear at next term of circuit court,
’ (fie bond being made, lie was liberated Hav
ing gone thus far he determined to try his
hand on a larger scale, and on Wednesday
night, having previously sold two horses, lie
determined to leave and that without walking.
Mr. I’hil Johnson, from the Plains neighbor
hood, being in town with a team of mules,
Barry concluded that one of them would suit
him, and accordingly prepared to ride. For
tunately Mr. Johnson discovered the absence
of his mule in time and after searching fora
while, found him tied to a tree where Barry
had doubtless left him, until further prepara
tions for his journey could be made. Barry
finding that lie was discovered made his es
cape, o-ot however without being fired upon
by Mr- J- We have had the report that lie
had been arrested at the Bluff upon a charge
similar to the above, how this i-s we cannot
say. _ _
jjfjy We call attention to tiro advertisement
in another column, of F. Lcptien, Watch
Maker, Jeweler, &c. Leps many friends will
be glad to learn that lie lias established him
self again in Bes Arc for tlie purpose of carry
ing on his old business, fer they all know his
reliability and punctuality. Those having
work of his kind to be done, would (hi well tc
give him a call. As his work has heretofore
! been his recommendation he is willing that
it. should be so now. T.ook out for the big

Asolher Letter from Gen. Early.
City of Mexico, Jan, 10, 18C0.
To tho Editor of tho Mexican Times;
Sir. A communication, of which the follow
ing is a copy, was sent from Havana to the
editor of the New York Xctrs for publication.
I respectfully request that it may also be pub
lished in your journal.
The main object of this communication is to
I show the very great disproportion between tiie
! forces of the Confede rate States and those of
the United States in the late war. I have not
j undertaken to point out the errors of statement
i in regard to battles and operations in the field.
! committed by Mr. Stanton and <3on. Grant
I in their reports, which are numerous, because
to do so would require too much space for a
communication to a newspaper.
1 have ■confined myself to facts in regard to |
the strength of the Confederate armies, which !
came within my ow n. knowledge ; but a correct
idea .of the superiority in numbers of the
federal forces everywhere, may be formed I
! when it is seen by Mr. Stanton’s report that 1
there were called into the United States ser- 1
vice, from the “loyal States” alone, 2,659,odd
; men during the war, and it is recollected that
! tho white population of all the Southern
States—including Missouri, Kentuckoy, Mary
land and Delaware—amounted to only 8,00'J
009, so that tho number of men called into
the service of the United States amounted to
one-third as many as all the white men, wo
men and children of the Sourthen States, j
provided all the latter had embraced the cause
of the Confederacy.
In the overwhelming odds in men and re
sources, which the United States had against
us, are to be found sufficient reasons for the
failure of our cause, without looking for
others; and no man with a proper sense of
propriety eau read, without feelings of unmit
igated disgust, the abuse which a few writers
in the Southern States, whotcontributed noth- j
I lug to the success of the cause themselves, !
i have attempted to heap on President Davis.
XX VI ~ ' jr- ' > ..*5
should restrain every Southern man from
uttering aught of reproach against our leader
under his present misfortunes, and the gener
ous everywhere, can but respect the prisoner
of Fortress Monroe.
In a ride from the State of Virginia, through
the States of North Carolina, South Carolina,
Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, Arkansas and
Texas, I did not find a solitary good man or
woman, who did not express the deepest sym
pathy and profound respect for Mr. Davis,
and it may bo assumed as certain that when
ever any pretended Confederate, at home or
abroad, is found denouncing him, that man
has either done nothing for the eqftse himself,
or has been a positive injury to it.
President Davis, during the long and severe
struggle which lie sustained by the energy
and integrity of his character, may have com
mitted errors of judgment as to men and
measures—not to-have done so would have
been more than human—but when the history
of that struggle is fairly and truly written, ail
men will he compelled to yield him credit for )
(he purest an 1 loftiest patriotism.
At present he is suffering, obloquy and
imprisonment for t lie cause of his countrymen,
and lie is entitled to and receives the sym- i
pnthics of all the good and true among them, j
Respectfully, J. Eaui,y. i
_Statistics at the Treasuay Department
show that there is no foundation the com- j
monlv received opinion that there is a balance j
of exports over imports in our foreign trade
The official value of the ports are currency
values, while the valuation of the imports art
made iu gold figures for the throe years, 1808,
1801 and 1805 The imports amount to $870,
000,000 in gold, while exports valued in cur- j
rcncy at, $972,000,000, when reduced to a j
gold standard amount to only $662,000 0 0 in ;
our favor, a deficit of $11-1,000,000. This is
the true condition of our foreign trade, and j
probably explains thccause of the great flow '
of .'111-set mil-'.''- to Europe.

Faith.—Faitli is the root and foundatior
of whatever is noble and excellent in man, o
! ali that is mighty and admirable in Ills intel
lect, of all that is amiable and praise worth}
in his affections, of all that is sound and stabli
jn his moral being.
The L. st Thing That Dies in Man.—Hope
is the last tiiiug-that dies ill man; and though
it be exceedingly deceitful, yet it. is of this
good use to us, that while we arc travelling
through this life, it conducts us through an
easier and more pleasant path to our journey's
end.
-About $10,000 Worth of watches and
jewelry were unearmeu in me cuy cemetery,
at Montgomery, a short time since, by a man
named Ciiase. It proved, says the Mail, to be
the property of George Harris’ whose jewelry
establishment was robbed in 1851. A large
amount of the jewelry has been sold around
the city promiscuously, but it is being collect
ed up, and turned over to Mr. Harris. The
works of the watches are, of course, totally
ruined, but the eases, as well as the rings, etc.,
are all good.
.The indications are, from wliat has
fallen from members of the Reconstruction
f’onimittec, that a bill will soon be reported
from the latter providing for the recognition
of the State of Tennessee, and the consequent
admission of her Senators and Representatives
to Congress.
-Tiie S. Louis Republican says that tin
late conflagration of boats at that port ha:
caused the following result: freight to New
Orleans and intermediate places, which Were
high before, have now gone up to 75 and 85
cents per Sack for corn and oats: 05 cents pei
hundred for pound freight, and $1 25 pet
barrel for flour on through shipments. Labor
being high, and other facilities for boat buil
ding being not of the best at present, some
:i:rie must elapse before the lost boats can be
replaced by new steamers.
The recent change of front made by the
President, has placed the GovernTnent em
ployees heretofore known as Union men, on
their good behavior. At first, however, in
common with ioval men every who they felt
and expressed much indignation; but friends
high in aurthority advised strict retricence as
regards political powes, else the gullotine
nfglit be put into operation, therefore, n
majority now have no opinion to express on
the subject now agitating the country. This-:
reticence is in part due to the fact that about
a ilo7.cn or more clerks in the Quartermaster
General’s office have already been summarily
dismissed for uttering in the heat of excite
ment expressions considered disrespectful
toward the Chief Magistrate.
The Philosophy of Advertising.—It is a
well known maxim of political economy that
desire creates demand, .and that demand is the
stimulus of trade. Whatever, then, produces
desire for the articles of trade promotes it.
This theory is well understood by tailors and
milliners. The former have their “walking
advertisements" in every community, who
display their fabrics and fits, and bring them
custom. The latter prospers uotioriously by
introducing the “latest fashions,” unci when
they have fee decked some of the “leaders” in
their richest and finest fabrics, or set them off
with their “love of a bonnet,” their advertising
is wisely done. For an acute observer lias
said of the ladies, that they dross for each
other's eyes, and what lady is willing to be
surpassed in fine or fashionable dress ? Tint
many tradesmen cannot avail themselves of
the principle in this way. They must content
themselves with a display of their wares in
show cases or at shop doors and windows, or
if they wish to create a general desire for their
commodities, they must advertise. Let the
people thus know what there is to sell, and
where it is to he had, and the people want it.
Desire is engendered, and this creates demand.
Many of the most successful merchants have
made their fortunes by generous advertising.
When one's name appears in all the papers, he
becomes known, ns it were, to everybody.
When he advertises largely, to many it is
lir/ma facie evidence that lie is selling largely,
that lie is successful in trade, that he has
many patrons, that his large trade enables him
to sell cheap, and everybody wants to buy at
liis popular, ami especially at his cheap store.
Begin a poor man. and let your first year’s
profits be judiciously used in advertising, and
you are worth more at the end of the second
year than if you had remained hid in your
corner. Wo commend this philosophy to our
readers—to advertisers of every class.

.Sad and slow the church hells tolling,
Death has his arrow sped;
And from this sinful world below,
•Another soul has fled.
He scarce had reached the bloom of youth,
Ere he was called away.
The opening bud was stricken down,
To wither and decay.
i He died where his father died.
With friends around the bed,
A sister by, a mother near,
To ease liis sinking head.
No more his voice will greet our ears,
These streets he'll walk no more,
His voice is hushed, and mute in death.
His boyhood days aro o'er.
j In its last silent resting place
His body now we lay,
i Here it shall moulder into dust.
His memory live for aye.
i
Then mother mourn, your Tommie's gone,
For him in sorrow weep,
For him who sleeps in quiet peace,
That never ending sleep.
ltest now in peace thy race is run,
And heaven thy home shall be.
Farewell Tommie, we’ll miss thee now,
Yes, wo will weep for thee.

More Gold.—News frorii the mines in
Colorado shows that the recently discovered
method of treating quartz rock containing the
precious metals, is Working to a great advan
tage. In one case, ore that paid but six dol
lars per ion by the old way of working it, now
pays sixty dollars by the new process. In
another instance, what arc called "tailings —
that is, the refuse earth and rook carried out.
at the tail of the washing-machine, and from
which but four dollars per ton hail been origin
ally extracted—were ‘akca in hand and treat
ed according to the new method, and one hun
dred and fifty dollars per ton were extracted
eont nuously. Other examples are at hand,
but these will suffice to show that the refuse
earth that we supposed to he exhausted by
the miners who first handled it, is to he made
to add largely to our mineral wealth by a
simple application of means derived from the
science of chemistry.
Tin: Ce.Xfr.nr.r.ATE In;ah.—The oration of
Hew Mr. Rogers, at Odd fellows’ Hull, on
the subject of the"ConfedeTatfe Dead,” took
place on Monday evening. A very respect
able audience assembled, all of whom sympa
thized deeply in the sentiments enunciated by
the speaker; for there were few who did not
have some dear relative or friend numbered
among the "Confederate Dead,” whose valor
and whose virtues Were so justly eulogized
The touching words of the orator caused feel
ings of mingled grief and pride to swell up in
the hearts of many of the listeners, and the
eyes of more than one strong man, as the time
was recalled when he had laid a loved comrade
to rest in his soldier’s shroud, glistened with
a moisture for which he had no cause to be
ashamed. Mr. Rogers closed his address
with appropriate and feeling remarks upon
the chracter and deeds of those truly Christian
j warriors, Stonewall Jackson and Leonidas

^nv. Oi.he.st Man in tiie United States.—
There is now in Kansas City in this State, a
man, Jose penno, who, the Kansas City Journal
declares, is the oldest man in the United
States. He does not know exactly when he
was born’ nor what, his age is; but his experi
ence, as related by himself, tend strongly to
confirm the Journal'* statement. He was a
pian at the time Canada was i a vailed by Gen.
Montgomery in 1775, but does not remember
his ago at that date; says lie recollects that he
was in thp woods splitting rails, when the
l news came of the advance of Montcomerv imon
Quebeck. At tho close oF the American
Revolution iie left Canada, artd settled in tin'
then Louisiana Territory, west of the Missis,
sippi, from which time he was almost contin
ually for some fifty years in the employment
of various fur companies as a trapper, in the
mounting regions of the west. During this
time he was at the battle of New Oilcans,
under General Jackson, and states then (1815)
lie was very grey-headed. About thirty
years ago he hired out as a trapper to the
late Major Dripps, a well known mountain
trader—the father-in-law of Mr. Win. Muikey.
with whom the old man now resides JI is
services for Major Dripps continued until
some seventeen years ago, since which time
he has not attempted to hunt. The history of
liis long life in the mountins is replete with
strange aud startling incidents, of hairbreadth
escapes from Indians and wild beasts, of star
vation and suffering i.i tho mountain snows,
and other scenes peculiar to the life of a j
trapper. lie is nearley the last of the old
stock of the trappers. Bent, Carson, Bridger, !
etc,, are but boys to him, and he will scarcely :
permit to them the appellation of “mountain -
men.” For tue last fifteen years, since he j
become too old to bunt, lie lias been kindly j
cared for by the daughter of Major Dripp s and |
her husband, who have furnished him a !
comfortable house, aud have his meals regul- j
arly sent to him. The old man is iti excellent,
health, and always cheerful and lmppy—never j
was sick a day in his life, attends church 1
(Catholic) with great regularity, and takes
much interest in all that is going on. His
second childhood is happy and refreshingly
innocent. Last summer he went with the :
family to see the cars running on the railroad>
