Smith l. Brown had decided to connect
themselves in business, and astonish the
naiives Of some country town, with store
. touch shove any thing Of the kind out d
she limits Of tho metropolis. CedarviIle
happened 10 b the place pitched upon, and
sometdly IVES their migration effected, and
lie business Of opening performed, tina:
unsil they were ready for customers, not
mose shsn half the women within ten miles
Of theie store knew that such thing was
u coatemplation. The Ccdarville Univer-
nj Advertiser had the merit for once Of
eoaa.inisg something q which the universe
Vas noa previously advised; and the gossips
sfCedarv;lle became nearly distracted that
sch march had been stolen upon them.
They therefore readily fcll in with the
opinioa At Old Pimento At the ole stand,
dat tho new store speouted up like musf-
suna IN night, and would be making \
Gil befoge they knew it, Commence BUSH
sen without making six months prepare
tory talk! the thing was Preposterous and
uepsecedented.-But they succeeded, me-
vesthsless. The young women had become
lised Of shopw0sn cammodities, especially
vhea sold bya csusty old Benedict, and the
temptasio0 q new goods, and the new faces
q two young bachelors was irresistible
All the Influence ofthe Editor Oftbe Univer-
ri Advertiser was on the side Of the new
Store, foe the trader at the old enc never
could be persuaded that in q town where
there was but one store, there was any
need Of sdvertising-and even now that
there were two, he would not enter into an
.s1vsstisipg battle with the new corners,
whose advertisements added some ten dol
lsEs u the annual income ofthe Advertiser,
no inconsiderable item, by the way, in the
receipts Of country editor. For this sum
they were allowed square, which in the
country, means page Of the paper.
Awf.l was tho sc6ism created in Cedar
vile BY the sNcw Ssorer Old Mr.. Pimento
stopped his paper, because he liked an in
d, .eDdent press and the Advertiser had
had The impudcnce to publish Smith 4
Browns advertisements, to his manifest
injssy. Such - the general idea Of news
paper ;ndependence-subscribers like to
eee The editor untrammcllec, and therefore
relieve him Of the cumbrance Of their
names, upon less gricvous causes than that
which induced Nj. Pimento to discontinue
the Cedarville Universal Advertiser. The
Cd ladies sided with Mr.. Piment0 and the
young ones belonged to the other faction.
and tho men Stood nentrab ~ moved as

Soch was The posture Of affairs in the town
ofCedasville, the parties alternately going
up and down, a. Oid Pimento sold the besl
molasses, o. Smith T. Brown the best bar
gains, when affairs began to come upon the
carpet mosc directly interesting to Smith
& Brown, and therefore to the readers d
our verit.ble history. The star Of the
young firm had been for some days ON the
ascendant, and aftera good days work
bolh partners waited in the store, a. if sacl
- something to tell the other with which
4 v0ud not answer to trust any walls but
ahsisown.
Each made awkward work Of his com.
asaicatioas, but we, like sensible historian
shall avoid secosaine their stammering pre-.
face, sod state that each had come to the
coaclssioa that when il was said that it SIS
not good Scs man to Be alooe'1partnenhipe
in business were not the only associations
deemed necessary BY the apostle. Though
Satan ID ever fond Of rcbuking sin-ye,
seither party could condemn the other fou

''Humph!' said Smith to himself Brown
