AHriouIry or AvcrIoHs.--Nfost Of the usnaes OF
life, socipl commercial, and martial, may be traced
to the remotest antiquity. Who for instance, would
suppose, that sale by auction and the red f1ng
which designaes tho place Of vcndue, could by the
widest stretch Of fnncy be assimilated with the Ro-
man General, welding his baton or truncheon the
symbol in all ages Of military commando And YET
gard to saea arc concerned. The system Of sale by
Auction originated with the Romans, who sold their
spoils In war under spear fixed IN front Of the Cen
erals tent The spear was decorated with crimson
flag indicating the tent Of the Supreme Commander,
