r JX> THE CITIZENS OK GEORGIA
The termination of a Sanguinary contest, which for
the past four years has presented an impassable barrier
to all social or commercial intercourse between the
two great sections of oar country, having at length
happily cleared away all obstacles to a removal of
those relations which formerly bound us together in a
fraternal union, I take the earliest opportunity afford
ed me by this auspicious event, to greet thy Southern
friends, and to solicit from them a renewal of that ex.
tensive business connection which for a quarter of a
century has been uninterrupted save by the great pub
lic calamity to which I have adverted.
It is scarcely necessary, on the threshold of a busi
ness re-union, I should repeat the warning so often
given to my friends,—to beware of all those spurious
and deleterious compounds which, under the specious
and false titles of I reported Wines, Bra ndiea, Holland
Gin, Liquors, Ac., have been equally destructive to
the health of our citizens and prejudicial to the Interest
of the legitimate Importer.
Many years of my past life have been expended in
anopen and candid attempt to expose these wholesale
frauds; no time nor expense has been spared toac
complish this salutary purpose, and to place before
my friends and the public generally; at the lowest
possible market price, and in snch quantities as might
suit their convenience, a truly genuine imported arti
tie.
Twenty-five yean’ business transactions with the
largest and most respectable exporting houses in
France and Great Britain Have afforded me unsurpass
ed facilities for supplying our home market with
Wines, Liquors, and Liquers of the best and most ap
proved brands In Europe, in addition to my own dis
tillery* in Holland for the manufacture of the “Schie
dam Echnapps.’
The latter, so long tested and approved by the med
ical Faculties of the United States, West Indies and
South America aa an invaluable Therapeutic, a whole
some, pleasant, and perfectly safe beverage in all cli
mates and during all semens, quickly excited the cu
pidlty of the home manufacturers and venders of a
spurious article under the same name.
I trust that I have, fAtef much toil and expense, sur
rounded ail my importations with safeguards and di
rections which with ordinary circumspection will in
sure their delivery, as I receive them from Europe, to
all my customers.
I would, however, recommend in all cases where it
is possible, that orders be sent direct to my Depot, 22
Beaver street, New York, or that purchases be made
of my accredited agents.
In addition to a large stock of Wines, Brandies, Ac.,
in wood, I have a considerable supply of old tried for
eign wines, embracing vintages of many past years,
bottled up before the commencement of the war,
which I can especially recommend to all connoisseurs
of these rare luxuries.
In conclusion, I would specially call the early atten
tion Os my Southern customers to the advantage to be
derived by transnfiuing their orders without toss of
-time, or calling personally at the Depol, in order to
insure the fulfillment of their favors from the present
large and well selected assortment.

This new Hotel, situated on the most desirable spot
ozr the eastern bank of Hilton Head Island, affords a
fine view of the Pier, Bay, Ocean, sad surrounding

esting, in every respect, as the famous watering place
of NWport, K. L, and is altogether as comfortable
and healthful a place to spend the summer mouths.—
It has a fine hard smooth Beach, seventeen miles long
affording a more charming drive than the. celebrated
Beach at Nah&nt, Mass., and as fine sea bathing as at
that place or Cape May.
The House has over seventy large, airy rooms, and
verandahs on three sides of all the stories ; the furni
ture is entirely new, and the-tables will be famished
with the best that can be procured here and in the
Northern markets. Every effort will be made to ren
der the Hotel all thattho most fastidious can desire.

A Railroad Romance—An Actual Faat.
[From the NaahviU* Union.]
One of the prettiest and pleasantest morn
ings of May, or near the closM of that de
lightful month of balmy airs and fragrant
flowers, the train for Louisville was freighted
with an unusual number of elegant womeu
and gay and nicely-dressed men. As usual,
amongst the latter was a large proportion of
Uncle Sam’s pets with shoulder-straps.—
There was no longer any apprehension of
guerrillas or other Tuarauders on the road,
and after getting fairly under way, the pas
sengers, catching the spirit of lovely morn,
addressed themselves to the task of making
time pass off pleasantly.
It Was not long ere all, who were so dis
posed, were enjoying themselves In soma
way. On one ot the seats in the ladies’ car
was a married lady with a little daughter ;
opposite facing them was another child, a
son, and a colored “lady”—we believe they
are all “ladies” now—with the baby. Tfle
mother of these children was a beautiful ma
tron, with sparkling, eyes 4n exbuberant
health, and vivacious spirits. Behind her
sat a young Lieutenant dressed to kill, aud
seeking a victim. He scraped up an acquain
tance with the mother by attentions to the
children. It was not long before he was es
saying to make himself very agreeable to
her, and by the time the sun began to decline,
one would have thought they were old fa
miliar fiiends.
The Lieutenant felt that he had made an
impression—bis elation manifested it. The
lady, dreaming of no wrong, suspecting no
evil, was apparently pleased with the casual
acquaintance. By and by the train approach
ed the tunnel at Mulbrough HIU. The gay
and festive Lieutenant leaned over and
whispered in the lady’s ear. It was noiiced
that she appeared as thunderstruck, and her
eyes immediately after flamed with indigna
tion. A moment more and a smile lighted
up her features. What changes! That
smile, it was not of pleasure, but was sinis
ter. It was unperceived by the lieutenant
She made him a reply, which rejoiced him
very much.
For the understanding properly of the nar
rative —this o’er true tale—we must tell the
was whispered and what re-
the Lieutenant, “I mean
to when we get into the tunnel ! H
Replied the lady, “It will be dark ; who. will
see it ?” Into earth’s bowels—into the tun
nel—ran the cars. Lady % and colored, nurse
quickly changed scats. Gay Lieutenant threw
his arms around the lady sable, pressed her
Checkio his, and fast and furious rained
kisses on her lips. In a few moments the
train came out into the broad daylight; white
lady looked amazed, colored lady bashful
blushing ; gay Lieutenant befogged. “Jane,”
said tbe white lady, “what have you been
doing
Respondedceloredlady, “Nothing!” ’“Yes
you have,” said the white lady, not in under
tone, but In a voice that attracted the atten
tion of all in the car : “See how your collar
is rumpled and your bonnet mashed.” Jane,
poor colored beauty, hung her head a mo
ment, the “observed of all observers,” and
then turning around to the Lieutenant, re
plied, “This man hugged and kissed me in
the tunnel.” Loud and long was the laugh
that followed among the passengers. Tne
white lady enjoyed the Joke amazingly.—
Lieutenant looked like a sheepstealing dog,
left the car and was seen no more during the
trip.
‘ Complex Relationship.— A correspondent
ol Harper’s Monthly is involved In domestic
perplexities. He writes:.
I got acquainted with a young widow, who
lived with her step-daughter in the same
bouse. I married the widow; my father fell,
short after it, in love with the step-daughter
of my wife, and married her. My wife be
came the mother-iortew and also the daugh
ter-in-law of my o W'atber; wy wifes step
daughter is my and I am the
step-father of my mother-in-law: My step
mother, who is the step-daughter , of my
wife, has a boy; he is ’naturally my step
brother, but because he is the son of my
wife's step-daughter, so is my wife the grand
mother ol the little bov, and I am the grand
father of my step-brother. My wife has also
a bov my step-mother is consequently the
step-sister of my boy, and i» also his grand
mother, beeause he is the child of her step
son • and my father is the brother-in-law of
my son, because he has got his step-sister for
a wife; lam the brother of my own son, who
is the’ son of my step-mother; I am the
brother-in-law of my mother, my wife is the.
aunt of her son, my son is the grandson of
my father, and I aru my own grandtather.
