Fremont was considered provokingly slow in Missouri. But he wasas lightning compared to either McClellan or Halleck. The latter is proverbial for bis deliberations upon every matter, except where the interests of a Weat Pointer come in contact with a volunteer from the peopte.

This. year’s crop is estimated at twelve million pounds.” Iu 1844 there were only three tobacco plantey ia the colony, and their pluntations comprised an aggregate of only three and a half acres. The quality of the tobac©o now grown is highly praised in the French journals, ® 4 é3 > A # [Communicated } Eprror Transcript :—I wish to state through the columns of your journal a fact in relation to the Medical Faculty of thie By an act of the ‘last Congress, approved Juily Ist, 1861, no physician is permitted to practice as such, until be shall have paid 5 and taken out, a heense.

I nvticed half a dozen fellows who overheard the conversation, drawing the coruers of their mouths down in a melancholy grin. Misery loves company, and I concluded I was about the nine hundred and oneth that had got that anewer in that room. I tuen exclaimed, “reckon Id better go back to the mountains.” “Guess I've got to,” said he; so I got some supp r aud tarved in.
