Garibaldi, is little above twenty,’and of consid
erable attractions.' She. is tall, stately, with rich
black hair f dark glowing eyes, and has a truly
Italian heart She possesses also, - the advan
tage, especially as tho wife of a solder; of being
an expert and courageous horsewoman.”
Garibaldi's wife. Miss Raymond that was, is
a Di Vernon, or Gay Spanker, and knows a
good horse when she secs, the animal as well as
she knows a good man. She is patriotic, plump
and pretty, and pecuniarily well situated. ' The
happy couple passed the lune de miel at Como,

most bcautiftil country in the world, l^lero is
a difference of nearly thirty years between them,

The Slaveholder Abroad, or Billy Ruck's Visit, with

Phlladelphla^J.JL Lipjlneott & Co. pp, 512 with
A copy of this new work has just been re
ceived from tlie bookstore of Rev. J. TV. Burke,
Cotton Avenue, where they may be found on
sale. Wc wish tho multiplicity of peculiar
avocations on Monday, incident to a material
revolution of tho office, had permitted us to ex
amine this book leisurely. It holds up the
crimes and miseries of the English whiteslave
as a foil to that sanctimonious, Exeter Hall nc-
grophilism, which, overlooking tho poor that
arc at home, must seek its objects of commiser
ation in the wcll-carcd-for Southern Slave, and
its chief object of malediction in the slaveholder.
The materials for a crushing expose of this
pragmatic philanthrophy—this miserable by-
jocrisy, are so ahundant that the author must
lack dexterity if he has not produoed an effect
ive book. The records of Parliament—and
other official sources, and the uncontradicted
testimony of standard English writers will satis
fy any Southern man that no manufacturing or
mining district exists in the United Kingdom
which docs not contain a hundred fold more of
human destitution and misery than the whole
South—that no solitary product of English in
dustry or skill, docs not represent a hundred
tiroes more suffering than our whole vast Cot
ton crop. We shall read this book with inter
est and recommend it to tho notice of the public.
Com from. SL Louis—One day last week, 42
car loads of com arrived over the Nashville and
Chattanooga Railroad, which had been pur
chased in St Louis. On enquiry, we learned
that this com cost 60 cents per bushel deliver
ed at this point, which is 25 cents less per
bushel than com has been selling for here for
the last three weeks. Thus it will be seen that
cqrn can be brought front St Louis to this place
and allow a good margin for profits if >t should
keep up to 88 cents.—Chattanooga Reflector.
