gentleman of undoubted veracity said
that lie saw this piece of money while
on the Alabama River and that as high
as twenty-five dollars was hid for the
same by the Captain of the steamer,
othors being made from five dollars up
ward, nml higher prices would have
been ofi’ered, hut the owner of the
“quarter’ 4 said that ho would not give it

course stopped the bidding, more espe
cially after the gentleman said that the
memento could not he purchased atany
price. His object is to sell it for an im
mense amount by some means un
known to any one.
That the Confederacy ever coined
money is something new to us as the
Government never had a mint. How
this above mentioned piece came into
existence is a inystdry, hut wo do not
doubt the same as a truthful ger.tlemon
said that he saw it and offered five dol
lars for the same.
A Mtorr In Tnlbnllon Robbed.
The store of Gabriel Seleg, of Talhot-

He says (as wo have been informed)
that two white men presented pistols
him and swore to take his life if ho
should olfer resistance or to give alarm.
So far as we have boon able to learn no

A young man from tho country came
to this city a few weeks ago and ap
plied at a dry goods store for employ
ment. The proprietor informed him
that his “force” was large enough, and
expressed regret that his circumstances
would not admit of his engaging any
one. The young man persisted, saying
that he wanted to learn the business
and would labor until he did so free of
charge, whereupon the merchant told
him to come in two weeks from that
date and go to work. During the in
tervening time the clerks were instruct
ed to “swear him in” on his arrival.
Bright and early, two weeks after, he
arrived.
nlng for tho largo excitement that the
mtag years would yield,
Eager-heart ed as a hoy when llrst he leav
his father's field.”
The clerks, in whose charge the
Hwearlng in” was placed, had arranged
a number of trunks in the rear of the
store, forming an inclosuro; thence
they led him, and after explaining the
private mark of the concern, they
swore him in with an old dictionary
Ho swore never to tell tho mark, or in
any manner whatsoever reveal the “so
ot*” of the business. For two long
weeks he worked faithful, and it is sup
posed that he thought lie had “learned
the business.” For not getting wages
at the end of that time he returned to
his rural home, determined “to do the
square thing.”
