Viress. "TUESDAY, OCTOBER 20, 1883 The Call for Volunteeis. The issue between the friends .and the enemies of the Government, in the late elec tions in this and adjacent States, was so billy ;Daft yap that there can be, no doubt -whateyer as to the signification of the result. 'The mph), by their ballots, have decided that the; war shall go on, that the Union may be restored. The Administration has 'replied to this expression of the popular re sult in the call for three hundred thousand 'volunteers, published in our columns yester day. It will be seen that the Government does not propose another draft, except so far as it may be necessary to fill up the quota of those States that have not volun tarily responded to the full 'extent of the new levy. The people have said, in the 'most unmistakable manner, that they are in favor of a vigorous war, and that they are perfectly willing to sub mit to all the privations which such 'a war must entail upon them. Drafting, therefore, will be unnecessary, except, per laps, to close up the good work of volun teering, and in place of the draft commis sioner we shall greet the _more welcome re cruiting sergeant with his fife and drum. Whatever the quota of Pennsylvania may be, ample time remains, between now and the fifth day of January next, to fill it by volunteering, if the proper exertions are made. Let those, the nature of whose pur suits precludes them joining the ranks, subscribe liberally towards a general bounty fund, to be offered as an inducement to those who can be spared to serve their country in the field ; and let all who enter the service be assured that their families will not be suffered to want during their absence, and we feel certain that the response to the Pre sident's proclamation will be fully as grati fying to all friends of the Union as were the results of the late elections. Our Foreign fielationi—at Home. The rulers of England and of France may learn a lesson, if they are ' , wide, from the manner in which the Russian ships of war, now in the bay of New York, have been received, welcomed, and honored, while the vessels bearing aloft the union jack and the tricolor have been in a manner passed by. So with the officers of these :ships :—the utmost respect and honor have 'teen manifested to them, not by individuals -alone, not even by the corporation, (though that body has behaved very spiritedly on the .occasion,) but by the whole mass of the - vast population of that city, with even scarcely a glance of non-assent from the po litical malcontents the msel ves. The Finglish -and French naval officers must have felt that they were virtually unacknowledged, though entreated with the civility due to strangers, while the Russians were made much of, and entertained with an enthusiasm and at a cost surpassing all precedent, even in New York, where civic compliments are made "regardless of expense," and even on a more extensive scale than, three years ago, was the sumptuous reception of the Prince of Wales. 'There is a great philosophic and even his 'torte moral in what Xew Irork - has done, - and is doing, to show respect and regard and gratitude to Russia, and to mark, by a strong contrast, what is the public opinion of this country regarding England and France. "The Lounger," who writes so much common sense, and writes it very - well, in Harper's Weekly, puts this matter in such a clear manner that we shall take leave to quote a portion of his article. After saying " the welcome to the Russian officers was a striking and memorable event; John Bull in the omnibus and at windows, and on the corners of streets, laughed atthe `splendor' of the spectacle," he adds : "At this time there are also English and French ships riding at anchor in the harbor. And what the mind's eye sees as it looks is, that England and France are the quasi enemies of this country and of Russia ; that Eng land and France have recognized the bel ligerent rights of the rebela, and that Russia has not ; that if an English pirate, like the Florida or Alabama, should appear off the bay, the English and French ships would treat her as a commissioned vessel of war, and the Russian ships would treat her as a pirate These are little things visible to the mind's eye, whatever the excellent John • Bull may think of the 'splendor' of the civic reception." This is plain truth. Since the war com menced, Russia has shown the greatest good feeling towards us, not unmindful, we think, of the fact that when England and. France declared war with the Czar, in 1854, the United States Government sternly put its foot upon the British attempt to recruit for V.teronin.'s army in the Crimea, sent home several British consuls, and dis missed Sir Jonr CRAMPTON, the British ambassador, as a chief partieeps We felt that it was our duty to be neutral during the war in the Crimea, and showed that neutrality by quickly remitting back to England the whole of Queen Vrcront&'s recruiting-gang. Russia evidently did not • forget this, when our troubles began, and has shown it by her conduct. Our friend, " The. Lounger," continues thus : "Americans understand that the sym- patby of France in our Revolution was not from love of us, but from hatred of Eng land.- They know, as WASHINGTON long ago told them, that romantic friendship be tween nations is not to be expected. And if they had latterly expected it, England has utterly undeceived them. Americans do not suppose that Russia is upon the point of becoming a republic ; but they observe that the English aristocracy and the French em pire hate a republic quite as much as Sianthe'Rus monarchy hates it; and they remark that, while the French empire imports coolies into its colonies, and winks at slavery, and while the British Government cheers a poli tical enterprise founded upon slavery, and by its chief organs_defends the system, Bus atia emancipates her serfs." These last four vords,telling a great fact, really constitute the essence of a great argument. The conclu sion of the article is even finer than any preceding part •of it: " There is not the least halm in observing these little facts. Russia, John Bull will remember, conducts herself as a friendly Power. That is all. England and France have shown themselves to be unfriendly Powers. And we do not forget it. Russia treats us in our civil war as we treated England in her Crimean and Indian wars. We have no frenzy' of gratitude for it, but we have a very distinct and permanent perception of the fact. As to the gold lace and the eplendor of the civic ovation, if they were inadequate, the Russians doubtless freely •forgive the want of rings upon the• hand in consideration of the warmth and sincerity of the pressure." .A.Fund for the Widows and Orphans of Soldiers. Celebrations of the great Union victories - will soon be held in all the counties of Ohio and Pennsylvania. We suggest that instead, of sumptuous banquets, and brilliant dis plays, these celebrations should be made the ;Occasion of raising a fund for the benefit of - widows and orphans of soldiers killed in the war for the Unioia. In, the two States the contributions would probably amount to a million of dollars, which, invested in Go- Ternment bonds, would yield a handsome income. Such a method of celebrating the loyal triumph at the polls would be worthy of our cause, in keeping with Our principles, and due to the memory of our noble dead. *lt will form a bond of union and sympathy - which cannot' be broken, and will meet the approbation of every just and generous citi :zen.

Among the letirs found in JEFFERSON DAVIS' library R ohe from kr. -,l.talus MAeON, written during the Presidential earn Paign of 1856, and advising the secession of the South in case General: Pnwaforr was elected. "1 am a candidate for`the first halter," wrote Mr. MASON. It is noticeable that the first man hung in this war was Jonx BROWN. The death of this lonely old man was for an act conscientiously committed in the cause of human freedom. With one or two friends, with a few colored men, some old muskets and pikes, he deliberately went into Virginia and made war upon the whole accursed system of slavery. It was .A.JAA defying the lightning. He failed, as all the world might have known, as probably in his heart he knew he would. But he died strong in his own proud consciousness, and shamed in his death the lives of those around him. As he passed from the prison gloom into the sunlight on his death-day, he took from the arms of a weeping slave woman her little smiling babe and kissed it, blessing in that sublime act the down-trodden race for which his life was sacrificed. On the scaf fold he calmly looked around him and said, " How beautiful are the green fields !" little longer andhe looked on them no more. The execution of old JOHN BROWN shocked the heart of the . North; those who blamed the act respected the man, and blushed at the pitiful want of magnanimity on the part of the Virginian slaveholders. The heroic spirit was not dead in the free States ; thousands felt that Jorm BROWN was justified in his own heart. His death WS galling to the warm sympathies of free men. Yet no attempt was made in the North to resist by force his execution. Kansas did not frantically secede, nor did Massachusetts, with all her Abolitionists, threaten to destroy the Union. JOHN BROWN'S transgression of the law did not compare with the crime the slave holders committed. The men that hung him were even then plotting the great wickedness of the age, and he was slain for trying to save a few negroes from bondage, that they might with more safety attempt the murder of their country. And how great is the contrast between the law abiding, loyal North, which permitted Virginia to hang Jorm BROWN, because it was . so written in the bond, and the treacheious South, then preparing to tear the bond asunder. The Constitution was sacred as it protected slavery ; worth less as it protected freedom. There was not a traitor in the Senate, or in the Cabinet of JAMBS BUCHANAN, who was not ten times worthier a halter than this brave old hero ; and those who clamored at the time most loudly for his blood knew well their own guilt was greater. In 1856 there were more candidates for the first halter than Mr. MASON. LETTER FROM "OCCASIONAL." WASHINGTON, October 19, 1863 After a long absence from my post, I can scarcely tell you how I enjoyed the change everywhere apparent between the dark hour when I left, in September, and the bright and hopeful present. Never has the voice of the loyal people of loyal States done so much to encourage honest and loyal ; public servants as the voice that spoke from the triumvirate and triumphant States (Penn sylvania, Ohio, and Iowa) on the 13th of this month. To fully understand the value of these majestic popular utterances you should be here. It is easy to realize that if the mere sympathizers with treason in Pennsylvania felt sure of rebuking the Federal Government, those here who do more than sympathize with treason, and who are only Aeterred from open de monstrations by thel'act that the Argus eye is upon them all the time. should have bold ly and brazenly expected the defeat of the Union party in the late elections. lam told that they were so sanguine as to be ready to wager large sums upon the lime of the elec tion in our State. For these people, like their political kindred elsewhere, had come to the conviction that the last chance for the rebels was to defeat the friends of the Administration in the Northern elec tions. When this hope failed them, their hearts gave way, and they saw before them only defeat and despair. How different the effect upon the public authorities—upon those who have the heavy burdens of official responsibility to carry, and who have had to withstand the reckless assaults of the Copperhead leaders I I saw the President on Friday, and several members of his Ca binet, and heard enough to make me proud of our good State, and yet more proud of the wonsilrful victory that has crowned the patriOtic'unity of her people. That victory has given new heart and strength to the Administration, and will do more to crush traitors and hasten the overthrow of the re• hellion than if it had been won against the rebellion on the field of battle. A friend from the army, just in, from one of the best and bravest of the fighting columns, tells me that when the news of the election of Curtin and Brough reached the front, it was greeted with the wildest enthusiasm. Who will now say that our efforts in Pennsylva nia were all in , vain? Or deny that our victory has cheered the Government, stimu lated the army, appalled the traitors, and given a new proof of National unity and power to foreign nations ? OCCASIONAL. The Election In Pennsylvania. Ilearkrentrao, Oct. 19.—The official returns of the election, as far as received, give Governor Curtin 11,1384 majority. The counties yet to hear from are Butler, Cameron, Clearfield, Elk, Forest, Greene, Jefferson, Potter, Somerset, Susquehanna, Ting°, Penang°, Warren, Washington, and Wayne. So far ac the returns are in, the vote for Governor Curtin leads Judge Agnew about 8,000 votes. This will be increased to 10,000. The Senate will stand 17 Republicans to 16 Demo crats, and the House 52 Republicans to 48 Demo crats. NV AST-I - JEN" Gra' 4DN" Special. Despatches to The Press. WASHrNOTOM, D. C:, Oct. 0. Naval Captures—A Rebel Blockade-Run- ner Destroyed. The Navy Department has received a communica tion from Acting Rear Admiral LSE, dated off New port News, yesterday, in which -he states that Lieut. LAWSON, on the 11th, being close in shore to the westward of the bar off NeW Inlet, diacovered a vessel coming up the beach. He tried to get be tween the stranger and the beach, without swam i the latter being too close in, when an attempt was made by her to'run back to the bar, which attempt was intercepted by the. Nansemond, and the vessel was then run •so hard ashore, with a heavy surf and a falling tide, that all of Lieutenant LAWSON'S subsequent efforts proved unavailing to get her afloat again. All on board escaped excepting the, second and third master, two of the crew, and a passenger. The first two are reported to be Americans, and the remainder foreigners. Lieut. Lewson set her on ilre, and burned her to the water's edge, firing a number of shots into her ma chinery; She proved to be the propeller Douro, owned at Wilmington, with a cargo of two hun dred and fifty , bales of cotton, two hundred and severity boxes and twenty tierces of tobacco, and a quantity of turpentine and rosin ; all belong ing to the rebel Government. The Douro was cap tured by the Quaker City last spring, condemned, sold, and taken to the British provinces, and thence to Nassau. This vessel now lies a perfect wreak: juet above the,Hebe. The English schooner Florrie was captured on the 2d inst., six miles from Mata gorda, Texas, purporting to be from New Orleans to Rio Janeiro. Whe* boarded the master pretended he did not know his position, and thought he was eighty miles from:land. She was seized by Acting Commander Small as a lawful prize f'or violating the blockade. Ske was laden with medicines, wines, saddles, and an assorted cargo. Incendiarisui at Washington.

WASHINGTON, Oct -19.—1t is understood that offi cial *formation was received to-day, stating that our loss, by the rebel attack on Charlestown Va., yesterday, was not more than 160 men. Assuming this to be true, the aocOunts from that quarter have been exaggerated. Accounts from the Army of the Potomac say that there are no tidings of Lee's whereabouts, as he has recently materially changed his positions. Such dispositions have been made of our own army as will meet all contingencies. Heavy firing of artillery was for an hour or two heard this morning in the direction of Manassas.

Major General Haßeck, Gercerai-iiv Chief: The following despatch -has been received from Brigadier General George Crook, commanding the 2d Cavalry Division, dated Rogersville, Alabama, October 10, 1863: I have the honor to inform you that I have had three fights with the enemy since I left the Se quatchie Valley, whipping him very badly each time. The last battle ended at Farmington Farm, where I fought Wheeler's entire command with Only two brigades. I cut hisiforce in two, scatter ing a large portion of it, capturing four pieces of artillery, 1,000 stand of arms, 240 prisoners, besides the wounded. As I pushed on after the enemy im• mediately, I have not been able to ascertain the number of their killed and wounded, but it wee very heavy. They were scattered over a distance Of fifteen miles from this, and their retreat was a perfect rout, their men deserting and straggling over the country. I pursued with great vigor, but their horses being better than mine 'I was only able to come up with a couple of regiments at Sugar Creek, left to detain me. I made a charge on them, capturing some fifty of them and scattering the remainder in the moun tains. When within eight miles of the river I struck up a gallop, but when I reached the river I found they had all crossed at a ford some three miles above . Samp's Ferry, where they could cross twelve abreast. I have never seen troops , more de moralized than they were. lam satisfied that their loss in this raid was not less than 2,000. No fears need be entertained of their making another raid soon. GEORGE CROOK, Brigadier General Commanding W. S. ROSEGRANB, Major General. THE MUTINY OF THE GEORGIA MILITIA 60 KILLED AND 200 WOUNDED. The report of a mutiny in Bragg's army seems to be fully confirmed by late intelligence. A letter from Chattanooga to the Cincinnati Commer cial lays : It was occasioned by the refusal of the Georgia militia to remain longer in active service. They represented that they had volunteered only for the battle of Chickamauga, to drive the Federal troops out of their own State, and that done, were un willing to be retained in the Confederate service. Bragg refused to grant them permission to return home, and they stacked arms, whereupon a division of Lougstreet'a men were ordered into line. Even this did not intimidate the valiant militia. They were resolute, and were not to be coerced in any inch style. Finding no virtue in threats, Long street's men were ordered to fire upon the muti neers, and discharged several.volleys at them, with what effect we have not been able to definitely as certain. - -We have it on the authority of deserters, that sixty were killed and two, hundred badly wounded.. THE WAR IN EAST TENNESSEE CFrom the Richmond papers. LYNCHBURG, Ya., Oct. 16 —Twenty-seven regi ments of Yankee cavalry and mounted infantry, esti mated at 14,000, passed Greenville, Tennessee, bound eastward, to make a raid on the Virginia and Ten- Demme Railroad, attacking our forces at Bible Ridge, six miles west of Greenville, on Saturday, the 10th inst. Our force withdrew to Henderson, ten miles east of Greenville. The enemy having succeeded in reaching our rear, our men.fell back to Zollicoffer, until the Yankees, heavily reinforced, advanced upon them, when they were withdrawn to Bristol. Our loss in both days' fights was 300 killed and wounded. Our wounded fell into the hands of the enemy. On Wednesday night the enemy arrived at Bris tol, and are reported to have advanced towards Abington with a heavy force, supposed to number from 8,000 to 10,000. Joe Hooker is in command in East Tennessee. Burnside has left, having been dismissed or re signed.

The Bourse was steady on the 6th. Rental opened and °loved at 671. 75e. THE POLISH QUESTION. The Paris Petrie says: " We have reasons to be lieve that Pi ince Czartorisky is taking formal steps - in the name of the national Polish Government, to obtain from the Cabinets of London and Paris the recognition of Poland as a belligerent nation." The Constitutionnel. replying to other journals, de nies that France is responsible for the bloodshed in Poland, and says that "the Polish question has en tered a new phase in consequence of the declaration of Earl Russell agncerning the treaties of 1815. Upon this new ground France will do her duty, as she has done in the recent negotiations. Conserva tive France has no more to fear on an adventurous war under the negotiator of the peace of Villa franca, than Liberal France has to fear a compro mising peace under the Conqueror of Solferino." La France learns from St. Petersburg that the party which recommends honorable concessions to Poland regains ground. A Breslau telegram says : The Cossacks have killed on the high road the Councillor of Justice, Blodowski, and the proprietor Usage. Fresh de. tachments of insurgents have appeared in the vi cinity of Kaliach." I=l The Opinion Nationale welcomes Mr. Mason to Paris by thus referring to his antecedents: ' Mr. Mayon is one of tbe adepts. of that Southern po litical school which considers slavery not only a neces sity but a divine institution. He it was accordingly who with these principles proposed the celebrated law npon fugitive slaves adopted in ISSO, and has always been in favor of the re-establishment of the slave-trade. In "ISt9, after John Brown's attempt, he proceeded to Harper's Ferry, accompanied by Governor. Wise and Mr. Yallandighani, in the hope of extorting from the unhappy , martyr, who was wounded and al most dying, some confessions which might com promise the leaders of the Republican and Abo lition parties. ' I will willingly and in all free dons reply to the questions concerning- myself,' , said John Brown to his judge-accusers, .l will say every thing that honor permits me to say. but you will not iet from me a single word concerning other per.ons.' t is only fair to recognize, however, that Mr. Mason ?id not care to insist upon this point, - lint left to Mr. Vallandigham the shameful task of provoking compro mising answers by- every means. The name of Mr. Mason will not the less remain associated in a by no means enviable manner with this d enlorable trial, More Tees[ by—on the 14th April, 1860—Mr. Clark, one of the Senators for New Hampshire, proposed in Congress to voter certain sum for the education of the free people of color in the District of Columbia. Mr. Mason immedi ately rose with indignation, and violently protested against ' this attempt to raise the black., whether free or-n ot, from a elate of ignorance in which it was nacos ry that they should be a lways kept.'"

WALNUT. BTBEET THEATRE.—The new play en titled " Appasta" was last night produced at the Walnut-street Theatre. It is constructed by Mr. aeries Gaylor, and is put together with an eye to effect. A mere glance atthe programme assures any one of this. A stage manager himself could desire no more effective denouements than are witnessed in "Appetite." To us it is an almost disgusting play. It is in itself essentially so. The play represents and verifies some of the very worst phases of the human heart. Miss Heron portrays them aptly; she understands her cue ; but she does not do the duty which is required of her. Indeed, she cannot. We oannot believe that any pure-minded Woman can perfectly portray such a character as A4pasia. Why does she not apply herself to the legitimate drama? Why should she lose her reputation in such disrepu table scenes as those in "Armada I" She seems afraid to try the legitimate drama, and is backward in at teMpting any part which requires the higher order of talent. For her sake we are glad that it is so. All her successes appear to lie in the cha racterization of impure, abandoned women. As pasia is worse than Camille, and the grossness of the representation is more than mere sensuality. It is sensuality without the natural veil of modesty which artificial society throws over it. We have no hesitation in pronouncing that "Aspasian is a most immoral play, and that the manner in which it was last night acted is not as it ought to be acted before a pure minded and intelligent public. It is offensive. We should have less to say upon this subject if such plays as these were merely incidental. But they offend in a literary point of view. A. mere know ledge of stage effect only is not necessary to build up a successful drama. If wit and pathos—the wit of a Congreve or Sheridan, and the pathos of a Knowles (leaving Shakapeare out of the question)— were apparent, there might be a certain gloss and glitter for the intellect to cast over the personation of debauchery. But in "Aspasia" there is nothing of this kind. All that can be maid of the play is that the scenes are effectively sandwiched together, and that the final denouement is the most unnatural that has yet been presented. To those who have not enjoyed the privilege of seeing the play, some idea of the plot ought to be presented. It appears to be somewhat in the follow ing style : A woman named Aspasia, who seems to have lived through the centuries, and to have remo ved from Athens toParis, falls in love with a Chem Her de Bury (Mr. RL. Tilton). Upon learning who she is, the Chevalier refuses in her own house to meet her. Aspasia makes a wager, in reward for this in solence, to bring him, by the third of October, within three months, to her feet. She rents a farm, and, under a disguised name, succeeds in her resolve. Somehow or other, in the third act she gets arrested for siealing a diamond necklace, and in the fourth act ale is transported. From the representation of the play itself, we defy any one not possessed of supernatural intelligence to comprehend the plot. In the fifth act shells a prisoner in the island of Mar tinique, and the Chevalier de Bury again comes upon the scene. According to the programme: they make their escape, and the death scene takes place in "The Morass (Grain)." There is a "shooting star, a blessing, an angel of death, a vision, glad tidings, too late, death, at rest forevermore, and an affecting tableau." We should be glad to see Ribs Heron successful in a character that Is not a reiteration of Ownate. She seems to us incapable of such success. Can she, with any real sympathy with the character, portray such parts as those of Aspasid and Camille T In some respects her portraiture may be- correct and true. Granting that, it is the character of these women, the gross immorality of the plays, and the naked vice which is thus publicly exposed, is more than enough to offend every heart and ear. It is a disa. - greeable, a wearying task, to dwell upon such a theme as this. With admiration for. the- talents of the performer, and with a conscientious belief in her faithfulness to her -profession, we cannot but feel that she degrades herself and her profession by the field which she appears to have exclusively ap propriated. We have before expressed our opinion in regard to the manner of ber performance. Some of her faults are those which, perhaps, she cannot correct. Her harsh and discordant voice may be beyond her absolute control, but her disagreeable and unnatu. ral gestures cannot be. But it is unpleasant to dwell upon defects which might be in some measure corrected, especially in connection with a performer who his earned some reputation, and who seems fitted for a higher position tha.she has yet won. B. L. Tilton was good as Chevalier de Bury, and Mr. J. S. Wright's whole duty ae Valdemar de Nom appeared to be to task about his "ancestral bones." The new costumes, scenery, and appoint, ment, as announced in the bills, we were not capa- ble of perceiving. Such as it was, the play, taking it altogether, was not uncreditably performed. The house was full, and the applause proportionably peat. We should be glad to see some plays of another nature produced, and actresses of another order than Miss Heron produce them. —Mr. - Forrest appears as Damon, at Niblo's. New York, this week. Mr. J.

HIPPLR'S GROUND-FLOOR PHOTOGRAPH GALLERY.—A visit to this beauttful gallery of art, No. 820 Arch street, will convince the most skeptical that the place of allothers in Phila delphia to obtain a No. I picture, of all sizes and atsles is at Mr. Hippie's. Ee has just added to his facilities for taking the beat pictures an improved Solar Camera for making imperial pictures of the largest size. L. A. GODEY, Esq., publisher of (today's Lady's Book, writes as follows of Grover Sr Biker's Sewing Machines : "We have frequently and strongly recommended these useful articles to our subscribers ; we have done so because we know and have tested them, both in our homes and elsewhere. There are two necessary things for housekeepers— one`of Grover Sr. Baker's Sewing Machines and Gorky's Lady's Book. It is not housekeeping with out them, Send to them for one of their catalogues, No. 730 Chestnut street, Philadelphia, and see to what various uses in sewing they can be applied. The very finest and the coarsest sewing may be done on them." IMPORTANT STIEGF-STION.—The demand forpictures at the celebrated Photographic Gallery of Messrs. Wenderoth & Taylor, Nos. 912, 914 and 916 Chestnut street, has become so great that they are obliged to ask their friends and the public gene rally to call wpm: Mem for sittings as early in the day as possible. This is especially important for children's pictures. They commence operating at 8 o'clock A. NC, and attention to this request will save many the disappointment and mortification of not being able to obtain sittings at all, by calling late tic thediry. TEAS AND COFFEES —the choicest and most popular for family use in the market—for sale by Davis & Richards, Arch and Tenth streets. DRAKE'S PLANTATION BITTERS are sold by Davis & Richards, Arch and Tenth streets, at seventy-fire cents per battle. PUFPING.—There is much said and print ed in thenewsrpapers about "crack" tailoring estab lishments, leading the unsophisticated reader to sup pose that this or that or the other "great clothing• palace" had the first claim upon men of taste for their patronage. How much better would it be if all such highfalutin gentlemen were laid aside, and the plain, simple truth were told boldly, that the place of all others in Philadelphia to procure a good snit of gentlemen's clothing is at Granville Stokes% Pro. 609 Chestnut street. MT TINGLE'S ADVICE.—"Harry," said my uncle, "never treat money affairs wit/t /tatty. Always pay, your debts, mind that, Henry." This advice of my uncle I have tried to follow. In order to keep out of debt, I' began to practise economy; the first step I took, and which I am persuaded any young man in this city can do, was to purchase my clothing at Mr. Charles Stokes & Co.'s one-price Clothing Store, located under the " Continental;' and from that time "1 began to put money In my purse." NATURE AND ART.—Birds are brought into the world with their clothes on, and nature provides them with suits that are best adapted to meet their wants and promote their safety. The ptarmigans are exactly the color of the stones in summer and of the snow in winter, and change their color as their abiding place is altered. The .grouse is nearly the color of the brown heather. The blank cock delights in the peat moss where the ground is nearly as black as his own plumage. The partridge - aid quail are exactly similar in color to the dried grass or stubble.
