JOURNAL AND MESSENGER. E. M. Bruce, Moroan & Cos. have t's, tabliahed a Colton House at ApjlacMlcOb, Florida, where they offer ' great inriuce nieote to holders of cotton in Florida and Southwestern Georgia. * Wo call attention to their advertisement in uuother cohinin and we endorse the following from the per of a co temporary:. k . .. ;_ _ From all accounts from Southwestern Geo gia, it appears that there iastill a great quantity of cotton in that section. Up to the present time, the holders thereof have been unable to for vard the same to mar ket, for lack of transportation and other as sistance accessary. Messrs. E. M. Bruce <k Cos., of our city, having learned the sit uation' in that part of the State, have de termined upon establishing a house at Apa lachicola, h lorida, for the purpose of render ing the planters of Southwestern Georgia, Eastern Alabama and Florida, the same assistance they do holders of cotton in other •actions. The new firm will be carried on under the name of E. M. Bruce, Morgan & Cos. We have spoken before of the great benefits planters and holders of cotton have received by availing themselves of the privileges extended to them by this house. It is unnecessary to refer to them again.— The great benefits are too apparent. And the holders of cotton in the section of the South in which E. M. Bruce, Morgan & Cos. propose to extend their business, will soon find out that what these gentlemen are willing to do for them in the way of taking charge of their productions, is.as much for the benefit cf tbo owner as for the party who renders the assistance necssary to get it to market. \ The enterprise of E. M. Bruce & Cos. is highly commendable in all things, and we doubt not the cotton holders in Southwest ern Georgia as well as elsewhere, will em brace the opportunity the establishment of a branch house at Apalachicola will give them to ship their cotton to a seaport at tba earliest practicable moment. James Seymour.—This gentleman, so weß known to our citizens, is receiving at his store, on Third street, a very desirable lot of articles. He belongs to the old acbool as a gentleman, and to the live line as a business man. He is always up with tha market, and keeps such articles as our citixens are always in need of. We com mend him and his house to our readers, as worthy of patronage. Perfumery, etc —Messrs. Findlay & Kenrick have en hand an extensive lot of Perfumery', consisting of Sozodont and Codfish, which they offer to those using such articles. Ebenezer Association.— Members of the Ebenezer Association will see notice of meeting of the association in another col smn. - - - I G. F. k H. I. Oliver offer a large lot of Cotton Cards, at reasonably rates. Pet. Notice of M. B. Smith in reference to real estate and lands belonging to the estate of E. P. Partridge. Miss E. V. Emmonett will find a letter of importance to her at this office. Murder.—T. J. Musgrove was brought to our cittv day before yesterday under guard, and accused of tlfift murder of Privt. \Y. C. Armstrong, of Cos. C. 145 Indiana Infantry. The prisoner is rather youthful in appearance, and says he resides in Randolph County, Ga. It seems that Annalrong was acting as courier between Cuthbert and Ft. Gaines. He left Cufh lerton Wednesday la§t on duty, when he was shot by young Musgrove, aqd instantly k‘led. Armstrong’s hat was found on the premises of Musgrove, we believe, se creted in his bed. A third party is also a citizen of; the vicinity of Cathbert, who is also here under guard. The whole matter is being investigated before Gen. Croxton. jx Mistake. —Noodles say§ tlpit the old axiom that “a leopard cannot change his r t ots, nor the Ethiopian his skin,” has i.ayed out. He has seen a leopard go all his cage, and once seen clear -iside. changing his spots every leap and -rating some other animals change theirs. As to the Ethiopian, he says his skin is hanging every year, and that where noth •ig but blackness was seen is now to be c the golden tints of molasses. — Every succeeding crop is improving in color, and he expects next year tu see ail white. Yesterday was a rainy day, as the joys gay, that counts. We had some ceavy showers. The streets are quite ®n*idy. In consequence of the rain, there T *r« not the usual number of our country [ in market However, the streets ,eT * pretty well crowded. ■— t■ ■ • w t ■ ," t ~ A Feu, wers at tb® De F* os yesterday when tha Milledgavilla *** arrived, and it seemed that “Ethiopia f * ttretehing out bar armi” in every di- N#t ie§* Thera vara ao*paratifily few * Wi e passengers, but a full cargo of tha l ""MBda&ta of Ham. They wart all hunt* M^< k9 ** tbi * | Home Thought*. Talk ant act an we may in the day time, amid j hustle mid strife, there is at hoot* *a influence i which moulds and j better. Night, tea, has an associative influence, thrown around it as evening tells, which camiot be lightly estimated ; but a euiixner night has over a strange fascination hr it* spell. Last night we arers dreaming home thoughts— Ftlfißtty, alone—and we swept on into the dead Past where leaves rustle with every breath of re membrance. No doubt others were as busy as we among the memories of tbs past, but it mattered not to us as silently the pictured scenes rose up before us with a power which seemed to overmas ter us. W« rose from the table and strove to •hake off the saddening memories. Prom the window of our room we looked out upon the street, but the great throbbing heart of the city was hushed. Lights danced ia the dwellings around, and we wandered away from our first im*gin<^j and thought of the thousand home scenes which would be brought before us could we step unseen into the dwellings of (Its- dty. How many joyous tableaux we might have gased upon, opeuiug the most gladsome springs of the heart 1 In how many a home might we have dropped wpoo those vbose life seemed crowned with affection’s choicest gifts I In some, perhaps, we might have looked upon a mother watching, with subdned *nd holy joy, the slumber of her cbftd ; And in others we might have seen. Hope straggling with some bitter sorrow. <*« » But Asmodeus was not with us, and we did not attempt to stir from our quiet domicil—for even a9 we gazed out, the damp wind, swept down the open street with that melancholy moan which sounds so ssddening at that hour. Agate, as come the impulsive thoughts which master our existence, the past swells up before as, as if the dead were once more walking with the living; As the silent hour# sweep on, these by-gone scenes increase in distinctness and power, and thoughts of olden time live anew in the light of other days. Who has not at such a time recalled each past error, each on worthy aim, and turned anew tw-Ufe a th better and loftier .aspirations! Thus the homo thoughts become a monitor which keeps the heart and affections pure ; for sad is the history of that man who turns away from the teaching with his selfish purposes unchanged. Trade and Commerce of Chicago. —The Board of Trade of Chicago has made its seventh anuua statement, from which it appears that there are seventeen grain warehouses in that city, with a total capacity of 9,936,000 bushels. Os these, two have a capacity of a million and aquaFter' ea ;»• ; the lowest is 76,000 bushels. The business in produce shows a alight falling off In nearly every instance from the figures of the year preceding. The receipts of floor duriog the year amounted to 1,170,274 barrels, against 1,424,066 barrels re ceived daring the preceding yeah The total ship ments of flour during the Same'ye*r amounted to 1,287,646 barrels, against 1,607,816 barrels in the year 1863-4. These statistics show a slight de crease in the trade for the past year, due chiefly to the unsettled state cf the markets and the fluc tuations in gold, as well aa to the high rates of freights that rui and after the close of navigation, The manufacture of highwines in that city during the year 1864 amounted to only 68,866 barrels, equl to 8,498,34* gallons. This shows a material decrease, as compared with 1868 ; but it is due entirely to the passage of the tax by Congress, which enabled holders of stocks to sell at lower prices than the manufacturers could furnish them for.

The scenery far exceds the European Alps, in grand and varied character, 7'he Injluenct of Ntwtpapen —A school teach er, who has been engaged for a long time in his profession, and witnessed the influence of a news paper upon the minds of a family of children, writes s« follows: I have found it to be the universal faet without exception, that those scholars of both sexes and of all ages, who have access to newspapers at home, when compared to those who have not, are: 1. Better readers, excellent in pronunciation, and consequently read more understanding!/. 3. They are better spellers, and define wordg with ease and accuracy. 8. They obtain practical knowledge of Geogra phy in almost half the time it requires others,.as the newspaper has made them acquainted with the location of the important places of nations, their government and doings on the globe. 4. They are better grammarians for having be come so familiar with every variety of style in tbe newspapers, from tbe common-place advertisement to tbe finished and classical oration of tbe states man ; they more readily comprehend the meaning of the text, and consequently analyse its construc tion with accuracy. 5. They write better compositions, using better language, containing more thoughts, more clearly and more connectedly expressed. 6. Those young men who have for years been readers of newspapers, are always taking the lead in debating societies, exhibiting * more extensive knowledge upon a greater miw of subjects, and expressing their Views with'frlrSater fluency, clear ness and correctness, in the use of language. A young lady moving in the upper circles •t Chicago was betrothed at tbs beginning of the war to a Lieutenant in the army. He was killed in battle, and. bis lody taken home ami burled by bis nearest friend and oemrade, who was with him when b# fell. To this young man tbe lady's affec* Uodi Wers very naturally transferred in time, and aba engage*) * Igfll gfl W* W** tb# arrived, and juit aa tbe clergy man ?as abbpt “ pronounce them nan and wife, tbe lady anddenly (hinted, and being revived, fbrbld any fortber pro. oedors, aa ebe said abo had aeen tba WrtrU of bsf former lover, and be wee eppoaed to tbs mateb, fbe peralated la her declileß, and baa aloe# retired to a eon vent. ..... ~ l^cniarnws: “/n the Loft." —During the progress of a pro tracted meeting ia M county, * good old brother.went to the minister aud asked him to spend the uight with him. The minister promised to do so, but when the services were over, a gen tleman came to hiui and said— “ Brother M——, did you not promise to gp with old brother W— — home to-night?” l '\ es sir, I did,’ the answer. “Do you know how brother W is fixed ?” “No sir, Ido not. What arts bis dream ‘tttnees ? What kind of a house doea he live in !” asked the minister. *‘s? \’ Vea fe* L*g house with one room.” “His house has a 101 l in it has’ni it?" “Tea, it has." “WeU my and ar brother, there is as sweet sleep for me in that loft as in the most riebly furnished room." • incident contains a practical lesson to min isters of the gospel; it is often the oompiatnt of poorer member* of (heebutchof Christ that their ministers do not visit them, and while remaik* like these are frequently unreasonable and unjust, yet.there are o-ten just grounds for these com plaints, and the poor see their humble dwellings passed by, while their minister visits his wealthier brethren clone. He who refuses to visit the jSSor of his flock be cause of their poverty,-has not the spirit of Him who had not wb*to to laj HU.head, the glory of whose Gospel was that it was pjeached to the poor, and whose eye marked with approval the two mites cast by the poor widow into the treasury of the Lord. lly brethren in the ministry, there is sweet sleep for ua in the poor man’s loft, for when ouf Master ■#e» us visit His poorer brethren for His sake, the peace that He gives in His gracious approbation will do more towards making our slumbers pleas aut and refreshing than if we rested on beds of down with curtains of silk. — ■: (wF" A Prussian soldier w»s taken ill nine months ago, and found shelter and nursing in an Austrian hospital. The expense of caring for him was about seven dollars, and in relation to the set tlement of the account two governments have had a volumnioua correspondence, only just completed.
