FIRST REPORT
From the Cheap Cash store.


A s was heralded forth in the Burlington Free
IA Press on the morning of the 4th March, saying
the former Agent HOWARD, was continued, and
had commenced upon his twentieth year,-who now
most respectfully reports as follows, vlz:-That the
effort made in dlsposing Of the old stock of remnants
and Goods at selling off prices was highly satsacto
~. That on the 23d he proceeded to Albany and
was present in the Legislature when the committee
reported, adverse to the building of Bridge a, that
place, and directed to take back the papers and
bring in bill for immediate action to determine,
whether, consttuonally, obstruction could be
thrown over the Hudson when the General Govern
ment had improved the navigation by removing i'm
pediments and deepening its channel far above such
place, is the question. Now that noble River being
the inlet from the high and Atlantic Ocean to the
trade of the Green mountain State of the Peo-
PIES Agent could not but have deep interest in the
result which may soon be known That on the 21th
he left in the Steamer Utica for New York, on which
passage Lieutenant Governor Bradsh was called to
the chair, J. Fonnmore Cooper, secretary, and the
meeting being addressed by Major General Sanford,
whereupon unanimous expression of thanks was
voted TO Captain Shutz, by the Lady and Gentlemen
passengers for his interchangeable enterprise and exer-
tons in ploughing way through the ice from Pough-
keepsie Albany, thereby atlordng peasurahle trip
by water instead of dangerous one through mud By
land To New York.
That having arrived at the great commercial empo-
rum of the Union after n winters absence was cheer.
ed BY mutual salutations with former friends who
without exceptions, protfcred their every effort in
shelving and dlsp wing all Of their most Fashionable
beautiful and desirable articles of Merchandise with
corresponding wish TO favor me with sach selections
as might be wanted and at the very best bargains par
tcularly as being for the supply of the up and
doing quick and cheap cheap for cash and rorim-
prison ment debt store located IN the beautiful val
lev Of Lake Champaln, al Burlington, Vermont.
Thus having been received made JudiCiJus Sc
lection Of such articles calculated for spring
trade and returned home where any of the many
kinds of Fancy and other Goods may be had at pri-
ces to sui, purchasers, at HOWARD'S.
