Second ANNnrtniajutT.-rpn Sunday afternoon
last. the Mcthodist Episcopal rinnday School Mis
sionary Society, of this pluck- hekt its second An
niversary metaling, anil it ki'nsa.happy time for
4he members of the Society; : The entire school,
numbering near three hundred scholars. was in
attendance, together with a lint attendance of
parents and friends of the scholars. The school
is formed into a general society, and Hie different
classes into auxiliary societies. Eacli class ap
points a monthly treasurer, and on the third Sab
bath of each month the collections of the anxtliary
societies are handed to the general treasurer.—
On the occasion referred to there was considerable
rivalry between the auxiliary classes to excel
eacls other in the amount of their collections for
the month. The result was that some $35 were
banded to the general treasurer, making the col
lections for rbei year, by the Sabbath School So
ciety, $179. After the classes had reported, a
very interesting letter from Kev. Henry- Mansel,
Missionary in India, was read. (This letter will
lie published in the CoHj'crtnrv Rt^orii.')
New Method of lUisixo the Wind.—Stand
ing at a Railroad station, u low days since, while
a passenger train, containing * number of re- ;
emits, was stopping to take wood and water, we 1
observed a new method of “ raising the wind,”
which was after this fashion. The recruits would
reach out of the wiqdows of t]ic car and snatch a
man’s hat from his head, or those who had stepped
out of the cars would snatch a hat and rush into
the cars with it. They would then hold the hats
out of the windows atid offer them to the owners
at 25 or 00 cents, acoordingto the value of the
article. In must cases, if not in all, they received
the price demanded. On the payment of the
sum there wonld be a regular cheer along the
lines. While .we admire, ihe man who for
sakes the comforts of home to battle for his coun
try, we must confess that this action of the re
cruits gave us a rather bad opinion of their
character.
Subsobiptioss to the Bounty Fcnd. — A cor
rect list of the subscribers to the Bounty Fund wiJI
l>e ]>nblisbed next week, the committee not having
time to prepare a revised list for thus week’s paper.
The subscribers to the ;f\tnd, who have not
already paid their subscriptions, should do so at
once, either to the party soliciting subscriptions
in their districts, orpt the office of Esquire Humes,
on Virginia street.
The committee having in charge the enlistment
of men and paying bounty, have been Itiudered in
their work by the failure of siibscriliers to pav up
their subscriptions. The time left is so short that
unless immediate payment I* made the money
will be useless. There is no excuse for delav in
this matter. If men really Intended to pav when
they put down their names, they can pay as well
to-day as to-morrow, and a day lost may prevent
the tilling up of the quota of the borough.
■ Sale of Condemned Cavalry Horses. —Bv
reference tb an advertisement in another column,
it will be seen that a Quartermaster from the
Cavalry Bureau, at yVasljington, will offer for
sale, in this place, on die 11th of March next, a lot
of d()0 condemned cavalry horses. Here will be a
chance for some of our fanners to get bargains.
Many of these horses are condemned because they
are run down by the hard usuage they have re
ceived, yet it they be turned lout to pasture for a
few months and receive proper care they wilt come
out almost as sound as they were before they en
tered the service.

Ueiike Perplexities.— The rebels are in such
a fix, says the Chicago. Tribnuf, that it require*
several columns to set forth their’dialemma, to sav
nothing of any mode of relief from it. Their
case seems to stand thus : ■
1. If they increase their airmy they cannot fqed
it. : I '
2. Unless they increase their army they are
whipped. '
3. Unless the press speaks out their liberties are
gone.
4. If the press speaks out is
gone. ' 1
5. Unless they draft the whole population they
must surrender.
6. If they draft the .whole population th v must
starve. ‘
7. Unless they recover Bast Tennessee they can
get no saltpetre.
8. If they undertake to reobver East Tennessee
they will get more saltpetre tlpm they want.
9. Unless they free the negroes they have noth
ing to fight with. ’
10. If they free the negroes they have nothing
left to fight for.
11. Ever since the,rebeliiojrt! began negroes have
been falling.
12. Nevertheless, their greatest fear norris,
least the negroes should rise.
13. Unless Jeff Cams re tndiates his present
debts he can’t borrow from a iybody.

In taking this st*■ j>. 1 have been actuated solely
by a desire to benefit the tailoring classes. 'While
there has been hut a small advance in wages, the
necessaries of life have advanced enormously, ami
the prospects are that they will still go higher.
Believing that the additional amount of goods
which I can sell, at the reduced prices, will justify
me in' my undertaking, I res|iectfully invite the
attention of the public to the following figures.—
Almost every person is aware of the priecs at

they will readily note the reduction, and can easilv
