A Dutchmans Distinction.—In the
Ninth Ward, New York, lives an eccen-
trict butcher, by name Harr YonBclup. He
iceeps-a little meat store, and often amus-
es his customers with bis curious com-
ments on matters and things in general.
His wife is a patient hard-working woman,
willing to turn her hand to any thing to
gratify him. When her husband goes out
she attends the store, and can slice off a
steak or Carve a roast as well as her hus-
band.
Mr. Brown is a regular customer of
Butcher Vonsclup ; be i a cash customer,
and has an abhorrence of accounts. One
day, when Brown purchased a roast, he
was short of change just five cents. Mrs.
Vonsclup served him, and he said to her:
" 1 will take the meat home, and return
immediately with the five cents. Don't
mark it down."
u Dat bees all right, Moister Brown," re-
plied tbe butcher's wife.
Brown hurried home. During his ab
nee tbe butcher returned, and bis wife
returned to the bouse. Presently Brown
came back, and hurriedly approaching the
butcher said :
'* Here is the five cents I owe you," at
the same time handiug him the coin.
M VotP asked the astonished Vonsclup.
"I owe you five cents, and hete it is.'
4* You make mistakes, Master Brown, 1
never trust you rait notin," replied the
butcher.
M No, no, T owe it to you. Since you
have been gone I bought*, some meat ot'
your lady and did not have euoug h to pa\
her by five cents and—"
** Lady ! You buy meat of a lady in ray

"Are you crazy man? [ m >an I pur-

" Der vouian vot sells meat here !"
" Yes."
"Mein Cot, vat you means den ? She

" You are an infernal fool!" replied
Brown, throwing the five cent piece at the
butcher and leaving in disgust.

ONLT ONE DOLLAR TER 'ANNUM FOR THE WIEHH
EDITION.
On the first day of October next we will
commence the publication ef our paper on
new, lara;e and legible type, under the title o
THE STATES AND UNION.
'• The Union" is a name that is endeared to
the editor of The States by many agreeable
recollections. He brought it with him to
Washington from Nashville, where it was the
title of the home organ of Gen. Jackson and
Mr. Poli, (with which he was editorially as
sociatcd,) and mainly adopted at his instance,
by the lamented Mr. Ritchie, the then Nestor
of the Amcrican'press, as an appropriate name
fonthe Democratic journal which they jointly
established, and the first number of whicíi
was issued on Jefferson's birthday in 1845. It
is a name that was beloved by such sterling
patriots and Democrats as Gen. Jackson, Jas.
K. Polk, Mr. Ritchie, Gen. Armstrong, and
thsir cotemporarics, and a name graven on
the hearts of the Democratic party.
When the journal which it represented
found that its interests would be benefitted
by casting it aside and substituting another,
we then resolved that, as it had-been thus re
pudiated, we would take it up, and place it
at the head of our own columns, as soon as $
suitable period arrived.
The States and Union will be condncte<
with an exclusive regard to the principles o
the States Rights Democracy, will be indf
pendent of factions, and unbiased by partii
interests. We may add that several of tt <
ablest contributors to the Union during,tl <
time we were connectd with it, have volur1
tarily promised to wiite for the "States ar<
Union," in bchalf*of the cause in which vr
are enlisted, as they did in by gone years.
It will be furnished to subscribers at 11
low price of One Dollar per year.
This is but barely remunerative; but v
have placed it thus low in order that it top
tie within the reach of every Democrat al
others who are inclined to read it. It. wit.

¡■ear in the daily editions, as well as a lar^e
amount ot ¿rea. ral intelligence embracing
much valuable informatioh relating to the
affairs of government, and matters of interest
appertaining to Literature, Agriculture and
Commerce. It will also contain all

Editors.
THE publisher of the KNICKERBOCKER
I as the pleasure to announce that the
Magazine has never before been in so prosper-
ous a condition. Under the management in-
augurated with the fifty-second volume,a high-
er price is paid for original contributions than
by almost any other American periodical,
w hile the press and the numerous friends of
the Magazine, in all parts of the country, are
generously aiding in bringing it more promi-
nently before the reading public. As hereto-
fore, the pages of the Knickerbocker will be
devoted to the cultivation of literature,"art
and humor. .
In addition to the above attractions, a com-
plete history of the Knickerbocker; with re-
miniscences of the contributors whose fame is
so intimately associated with its patjes, will
also be a feature of the present volume.
Terms: T^ree dollars a year, in ad vanee,or
twenty-five «ents a number, postage prepaid
by the publisher to any part of the Uuited
States.

16 & 18 Jacob 8tteet, New Yor
HE undersigned propose to publish a
monthly paper of sixteen pages, super
royal, so soon as a sufficient number of
subscribers are obtained to justify the un-
dertaking.
The paper will be devoted to tlie differ-
ent branches of industry, but mainly to tbe
interest of the Farmer and Stock-Raiser.
The day has passed by when tbe farmer
thought it silly to have any science in his
operations. A Northern agricultural paper
does not suit us, because our climate, and
soil, and productions, are different. Texas
has a peculiar climate, and to some extent
a peculiar soil, hence a paper published
even in Alabama or Georgia cannot be so
useful to the Texas Farmer and Stock Rai-
ser as a paper published here in our midst,
detailing the experience and practical oper-
ations of our own planters.
So far as possible " The Farmer and
Stock-Journal" shall be filled with origi-
nal matter, obtained from ©ur own citizens,
and so far as proper shall t e practical. We
have engaged sume of the best and most
experienced and intellectual gentlemen in
Alabama, Tennessee and Georgia, to give
an occasional contribution from their res-
pective States, upon subjects that' will be of
direct interest to the readers of the paper.
A person will be chosen, in due time1
from every agricultural, stock, or mechanical
society throughout the State, to act as
regular contributors to its columns. No
pains will be spared to make it equal to
any similar publication in the South. We
have taken hold of the enterprise with a
determination to succeed, having in our
power everything necessary to accomplish
the object, after the subscribers are ob
taint d.
We will publish all the estrayed
Mules,Horses and Oxen advertised through-
out the State.
JfcgT Subscriptions can be directed lo
either the Editor or Publishers, <at Fnrfieid
or Springfield, or to the President of the
Agricultural Society, at Cotton Gin, Free
stone county, Texas. Price.—One Dollar
per year, in advance.

Walker county, Na., Nov. 9, 1843.
I hereby certify that 1 have been four years
seriously afflicted with an atfecliou uf liver
and kidneys,and for five months prior to hear-
ing of Dr. J. J, Reeves' Medicines, I was con-
fined to my house, and nn>st ot my time in
my bed ; during which time I had been un
successfully treated by five physicians, alt of
whom were recommended as eminent. Aft'r
which I commenced the use of Dr. Reeves'
Liver medicines, which gave marked relief in
three days, and in a short time I was entirely
relieved from the disease, and I now consider
myself entirely well.
THOMAS GROGAN.
State of Texas, Smith co.,Jan. 15. 1866.
I certify that. I have been using Dr. J. J.
Reeves' Stimulating Expectorant in my family
for two years, during which time 1 have used
i t in sveral eases of pneumonia, and I can
confidently say that I think it has boen the
means of saving the lives of several members
of my family, t therefore give it the prefer-
ence over all other Expectorants and balsams
extant in the land, and recommend it espe
eially in that distressing disease, as standing,
iu my opinion, unrivalled.
MILTON CARTER.

This ia to certify-that I have used D. J J,
Reeves' Stimulating Expectorant in my family
in a severe case uf pheumouia, and find it to
be j 1st what it is recommended to be—the
best, article in the cure of that disease I have
everseen. It acted like a charm, and I un
hesitatingly recommend it to everyV-ody.
