COFFEE! COFFEE!!IS MANUFACTURED ATM. KELLY'S

Southern Excelsior Coffee Mill, Raleigh, and is equalto the best coffee. It is made of coffee, rye and cbickory.and is roasted in a cylinder by machinery, and therefore isbetter parched than' can be done by hand. C hickory is notso well known in Dixie land, but in Europe tbey use it togive a superior flavor to the coffee. In Germany they callit tagorah, and here we call it dandalion. In England itis so highly appreciated that they lay a duty of two poundstwo shillings sterling per hundred weight to protect thegrowers of it. We annex Prof Emmons' certificate tochow that there is no humbug, but it is what it is repre-sented to be:

"To Mb. Kbllt, Sir : Ithave tested and used tbe twosamples of manufactured coffee the labelled Java andLnguira. The first equals the Rio coffee of the shops, andseems to be equally good with that kind. " I am sat-isfied that they contain nothing which is injurious to thesystem, and may be economically and safelv used as sub-stitutes for coffee. E. Emhons."

This coffee is put up in pound papers, and packed inbores containing thirty-si- lbs., unless otherwise ordered.Wholesale S3 cents for Java, and 12U for Laguira per lb.

All orders promptly attended to by addressingM. KELLY,

THE DAY BOOK HAS NOW BECOME THEof the South. The very latest Northern

We submit tbe following extracts from what others haveto say of us :

D. T. Bisbii, Esq., who has lately returned from Enrope,with important dispatches to the Confederate State Gov-ernment, says in a recent letter:" While in London and Paris, I saw several quotationsfrom the A'orfotb Day Book, and since my return I bavealso noticed extracts from tbe same sprightly journal intbe newspapers of New York, Charleston, and other cities."

The Suffolk (Va.) Ohrittian Sun says:" The Norfolk Day Book, whicb is so fast gaining popu-

larity throughout the Southern Confederacy, comes to usgreatly enlarged and improved, and gives us Northern andForeign News in advance of any of our other exchanges,and is, therefore, perused with avidity."

The Wilmington (N. C.) Daily Journal says :" The Norfolk Day Book has become the most valuable

exchange paper we receive, as it contains the very latestnews from tbe Rump Government as well as ForeignNews."

The Frtdericktburg (Va ) Herald says :" The Norfolk Day Book contains the latest news from

tbe North, and its editorials are always of an interestingcharacter."

Subscribers to the Day Book may rely upon having theirpapers sent promptly by mail.

READ WHAT THE PRESS SAYS OF IT!

A NORTH-CAROLIN- A BOOK.

HE8PER, AND OTHER POE3IS:BY THEO. H. HILL.

OPINIONS OF THE PRESS." We have glanced over some of Mr. Hill's verses, and

find in them abundant marks of poetic genius, as well aspolish and good taste. This is Ihe author's first book, andthe fact that be baa ventured to publish it in revolutiona-ry times like these, certainly argues that he is full of sealfor the advancement of Southern literature, and of confi-dence in tbe success of that great cause." Charleston Mer-cury.

" Here is taste, word-facilit- word-felicit- correct andmusical versification, and alas I that it can never be im-

plied if unexpressed, correct syntax. Of thepoems embraced in " Hesper," tbe best to our thinking,are"Indian Summer" and "Taking a Snooze descrip-tive pieces truthfully and poetically descriptive." South-ern Literary Mtteenger.

" The Star above the Manger" ;s a gem. "Despair"has much of the wild and woeful spirit of Poe. It is trulytbe picture of Despair. "St. Valeutiue's Day," Is a light-some burst of flowers, and sunshine, and birds and show-ers. 1'. is one of tbe best poems in tbe book. " Taking aSnooze " evinces a fine perception and superior descriptivepowers ; and " Tear down that Flag," is creditable aliketo the patriotism and poetic fancy of the author. Shouldbe write no more verses, the volume before us will givebim a reputation asa atnaajf genius and taste." Raleigh(A. C.) Standard.

" There is a glow of true celestial fire in many of thepieces, though they are nearly all tinged with a vein ofsadness indicative of a misanthropic spirit. The followingis a pleasant sample of the pure rytbm and sombre senti-ment which pervade tbe book :

" My bnpes are songs, a siren snngAnd flowers her fairy fingers flungUpon a ruck, to which tbey cluug ;

They bloomed awbNe in beauty there,Then perished in its Alpine air,And now that rock is bare and bleak ;

The lichen thune its haggard peak,And he who bauuls tbe lonely shoreWill bear the siren sing no more."

Southern Field and Fireside." It sparkles on every page with bright gems of thought

and expression. The versification is easy and fiuw-in-

and sometimes marked by a springiness and play rare-ly surpassed, if often equalled ; instance "St. Valentine'sDay," ' Anacreontic " and others." Church Intelligencer.

" We bave bad much eujovment in our ramblingsthrough his pleasant pages." Pet rtburg Express.

"The Star above the Manger" is almost inimitable."Geldsboro' Tribune.

" This is true, genuine poetry. It has about it that ori-ginality of thought and t hat happy adaptation of expres-sion, that distinguish poetry from mere verse, and give toit tbe stamp of currency aud lasting impression." --SaluiuryBanner.
