Our Phi la. rrail has been belated lor the
last few days, owing to some unknown
cause. Hope the cause will soon be re
moved. lr is the pretty general opinion of the
masses that the back-bone of this accorded
rebellion is offectually broken -that the war
will be over by the first of April. - ,
Having given our subscription list a pret
ty complete pruning, if any of our former
eubscribers fail to receive the Star the mat

Rev. J. R. Dimm, of this place, lost a val

At the latest hour before going to press,
we are assured by the telegraph, that Ciarks-

be observed by a glance over it, that Co

We have a HIGH tariF, a national PA

throughout the country. To which add a

We arc informed that some of our Re
publican friends in and about this place
" took exceptions" to our paper last week.
We only have to bay, that we will get along
with them pretty well if that is all they take.
Our Nero has a right to fiddle, and tee have
the right to criticise his music.
Ths splendid victories of the last few
- weeks, universally regarded as the forerun
ners of still more brilliant and decisive tri
amps of our arms, ipeak volumes in favor
of the policy of the new Secretary of war.
We now have the assurance of a vigorous
prosecution of the war wih the end to a
speedy peace.

We heard it remarked the other day that
ibis war would be over as soon as the mon
ey "was all gone." We hope this will not
- be the case ; if so, the wer would last a long
while yet. We want it to stop before the

Generals not Caught. The telegraph
made some serious mistakes in its first re
ports of the battle of Fort Donelson. Gen.
Pillow was not taken, and the Gtm. John
son who was captured, was not Albert Sid
ney Johnson, as was reported, but one
Bush rod Johnson, whom nobody knows.
Gen. Albert Sindey Johnson remains in
command of part of the army that was
recently at Bowling Green, bo is now sup
posed to have fallen back to Nashville,
Clarksvill, or some other point on the
Cumberland river.
Rstcin of a ' Contraband." The Marl
boro (Md.) Gazette says:
A valuable negro man belonging to a
gentleman near this village absconded some
time last summer and made his way to
Massachusetts. He soon found that north
ern sympathy for his race was a political
mania, and not. dictated by a love for the
negro, and some weeks ago he caused a
letter to be written to fus master requesting
him to send him money enough to pay his
way back to his old home. This having
been denied, he finally worked his way to
Maryland aud reached here last week, a
wiser if not a better negro.
Doa Tx. We notice by our exchmges
that petitions for a dog tax of not less than
one dollar are in circulation in various parts
of the State. They pray the legislature to
impose this lax for the purpose of aiding in
the support of the poor, for school and road
purpose. The idea may be a good one
but the petitioners will fine all taxation,
hereafter, sufficiently high without the
necessity'cf creating an) ne taxe. Brad

Gov. CcftTiN has sera a message to the

document which, (it was alleged,) played
such an important part in the passage of the

stated, that, though be thus answered an
improper qnesiion, he did not wish it undei

tesy. Ant or ocr patrons haviug a few fowls

They stimulate the functio) M
of the body into vigorous s

the obstructions which mal jo
disease. A cold settles somewhere la the body, and o
strnots it natural functions. These, if not relieve!,
react upon themselves and the suiwounding organs, pi
during general aggravation, suffering, and diseais.
While ia this condition, oppressed by the deraugemeoi s,
take Ayer's Pills, and see how directly they restore tl
natural action ot the system, and with it the buoya it
fueling of health again. What is true and so apparent a
this trivial and common complaint, is also true in mai iy
of the deet-stated and dangerous distempers. The sal ia
purgative effoct expels them. Caused by simitar obstn c
tions and deraugements of the natural functions of t le
body, they are rapidly, and many of them surely, cni sd
by the same means. None who know the virtues of th so
Pills, will neglect to employ them when suffering fin m
