Francisco's Mebcantii.i; College.— This popular College has become celebra-! ted as one of the best in the United States i The fact that it numbers among its students many of the prominent business men of Fort Wayne is a sufficient testimonial of its high merit. Prof. Francisco is determined that his co'l-.'ge shall stand s ■ ■•■ Mil to no other college in the Union. The course of i:istru-..<;o:i is emphatically a thorough one bi.-i 1 ; being novel and highly interesting. The college is winning golden opinions l orn all ■ interested in the cause of Education and > is rapidly filling up with voting men from ' all parts of the Union. We would ad vise a.l to procure a scholarship in this college, where for a small sum a person can obtain a business education which ' they will use in after life. Mysterious.— It is really a mystery; what becomes of all the goods that are j received almosudaily at the ‘New Store.’ i It is only a few evenings since we seen ; box after box of goo 11 rolled into tr.a ■institution’ ami added to tliei" already ; very large stock of spring and Summer Goods. But tlie mystery ii easily ex-i plained by stepping in ile mid pricing I the cheapest stock of goods, in compari-, sou with the time , ever b Ovg’.it to this! market. CSrDon’t forget that School commences i next Monday; and don't forget to send vour children and got them off the steets at least a part of the time. As it is we i think there is enough running in the I streets loose to fence the town in. 7/ow a Rebel Got Clear. — The World correspondent at Norfolk is responsible for the 'fo'lowingstory of the movt-mentof a Mrs.! Bulkley. General Butler and his staff, it is said were anxious to lender her stay pleasant. Her baggage was immense. A day or so ere her departure for Richmond, a Mrs. 11, over heard a conv> rsation between Mrs. Bulkley anil Captain Breckinridge, (Rebel j prisoner) and informed Dr. Elliot, Provost Marshall of Old Point, of] the' treasonable language. The) Prot est Marshal looked into the matter, and Mrsß, avers that he’ attempted to awe her into silence, when giving the subject of the conference between the two rebels.! General Butler it is charged, allowed the worn mto go to Rich- ! mond. The World correspondent! says: ‘What argument convinced! Gen. Butler, I am not prepared to say. The case is a mysterious! one howovcL view it in any light! and. I believe, has been transferred to Washington by Governor Pierpont, who is thoroughly disgusted! with the present management in this department The River is falling fast.
