Sale Of Goods Take Notice!

Those who were interested in the Fair at
New Lyme know that very many articles
were unsold. Some o fthem have since been
disposed of, but Of them remain ON hand.
1t is very desirable that these goods which
were given to aid the anti-slavery cause,
should be converted into money; and as the
members of the Salem Sewing Circle think
TIE articles are just what the people of this
vicinity would like to buy. and have moreo-
yer offered to superintend their sale, those
who wish to procure any Of them can do SO
by applying at the Rail Road Hall. Main ST.

plenty of them there, some of them very
splendid too; You can take your choice, for
there is a variety. If you DO not wish a bed
quilt you may find a cradle guilt thu: will

among the goods, and the stockings and nit
