much desire to ossilniate with the new COM

lie them, has given place to familiarity and
amity, aud they talk together eat together.

gwen an impetus TO business, and buried in
oblivion the dull lethargy which prevailed
when the o@e party was opposed to the other.
Business men have arrived here from New

good market for oil they have To sell. Me
