this is nothing more than natural for Reviles

Advertese.—N ow that many business
changes take place,lt is important merchants,
dealers, mechanics, and all having anything
to sell, should let the public know where
they are and how they are prepared to ac
commodate their customers, Those who
have moved or made other changes ip their
business, should, of course, Juake those
changes known; while those who have not
should lot their old customers know that the
changes of April have brought no changes
with them, and that their customers can still
find them at the old Maud. That ildvertis
ing always pays the advertiser.is a truth so
well esta - blished - that no business man of com

knows, of course, that they justly forfeit
their fives by' s° doing"; but whit does ke,
a shameless repudiator of twenty yeane stand
ing—care for that ? His pretense that our
Government has been unfaithful in the mat
ter of exchanges is an aggravation of his
guilt, Irk the early step of this. struggle,

The Rebels in Virginia.—All accounts
from rebeldom show that the bulk of Gen.

A rear guard is left to destroy bridges,
railroad tracks, rails, &c., to prevent any ad
