The Daily Dispatch: may 1, 1862., [Electronic resource], $20 reward. (search)
A practical patriot. Mr. C. B. Rouss, No. 114 Main street, is both practical and zealous in his patrictism. He is selling salt and sugar to the families of soldiers who are in the service at cost. See his advertisement in our paper this morning. He sells salt to these families at six dollars per sack, while the general minimum price is twenty dollars; and he sells sugar to the same persons at half the present market price. Mr. Rouss reserves to be remembered as a patriot and a humane man. He stands forward in wide contrast with the extertioner, who exacts from the wife of the soldier the most exorbitant rates for the same indispensable articles — peceived from her husband who is -lling his life in his country's defence for eleven dollars a month: a sum perhaps less than the clear profit to the aforesaid extortioner on a single sack of salt: We call attention to the generous conduct of Mr. Rouss as presenting a noble example, worthy of emulation. "Go thon and do likewise."
