WOODEN CLOCKS.

The public has been for few years
past, imposed upon in shameful manner
Inv arace Of men who traverse the coun-
try in covered wagons, selling, s,cupping
or lending wooden clocks.-The evil has
gone to such extent, that one would think
the trade would have been ruined before
ahis. But il is not 30. We have appar-
emily, as many Of those land sharks round
us this season as ever we had, and it is
therefore to presume that there are many
persons yet unacquainted with the cheat
cry in this kind of dealing.
"A few suggestions with relation to this
trade may not be useless. The retail
price of these clocks varies from l2 to 80
dollars, according to the value Of the out
eide work.-A perfectly plain clock may
be had for about twelve dollars, but for
ono with front of looking-glass and sides
of mahogany, the modest price Of thirty
dollars is charged. The cost Of the most
expensive Of these cases cannot be more
than 6 dollars, as will be seen by any one
who viii take the trouble TO calculate the
yalue of the materials and labour. The
wholesale price Of the machinery is about
i,uo dollars and fifty cents. This fact VIC
state upon the authority Of an agent for
the sale Of them.
Deduct the actual cost of these clocks
from the price at which they are sold, and
a very pretty profit will remain, and yet
these srnooth-tongued gentlemen will be
very apt to mako you believe that the
price ID fair, particularly as they are will
Ing to take your negotiable note, and war-
rant the clock. II you give your note il
will probably be indorsed to a third party
and must be paid or lawsuit incurred.
The warrantee is of no great use to the
purchaser, because the seller is like the
Paddy,s mare, you can't catch him, and
he is good for nothing after he is caught
Another course frequently pursued is, to
ask permission to leave the clock in your
possession, and promise to take II again j
4 does not keep good time. The clock i
charged to you and unless you have some
one by whom to prove the bargain, tht
seller will forget his part ofthe agreement
and only tecollects that part which binds
you. The. records Of our courts wei
show that this last fact is not an unfre.
auent Occurrences. Moro might be sait
TO point out the danger Of being cheatc'
by trading with these gentlemen podiers
but suffice it to say, that If any one wish
e. to purchase wooden clock Il may no
be Improbable to ask advice Of an.
neighbor who has bought one .--.Qugust'
