GSelling off at cost is rather stale catch
for the unwary, and the less it is practised
in this intelligent community the better for
the salesman Whenever an individual steps
into store to purchase goods he expects to
be charged living profit over and above the
cost, and the only conceivable difference is,
we believe those who advertise live on less
than those who do not. consequently we would
invite an inspection of our advertising col
umns.

FANNY FERN.-A Boston correspon.
dent is responsible for the statement that
this lady "has been twice married. Her
first husband was G. H. Eldredge, cash
Ter OF the Merchants Bank. He died
some five years ago, leaving the widow
with an empty purse and two or three
children. Her second husband was S.
Z. Harrington, merchant of Boston, a
widower with two children. They lived
together only about year, when Mr..
F. betook himself to the west, where he
at present resides, and where he has Just
obtained divorce" The sale of Fanny
Ferns new book has thus far exceeded
that of Uncle Toms Cabin. Ten thou
sand copies were sold the first week of
its issue.-NeW York Mirror.

ES- The New York Evening Pos
tells good anecdote of Mr.. Tucker, o.
Virginia, the gentleman who has beer
named in connexion with the new organ
to be set up in Washington, in opposi-
ton to the Union. The Post offers to
guarantee his success in his new enter
prise, provided he will say once week
as good thing as he said to Senator
Douglas just before the meeting of the
Baltimore Convention. The "little
giant" was just then manufacturing
friends as fast as he could, and was
"willing" to everybody. Sauntering
up to Tucker one day, and throwing his
arm familiarly around him, he said:
"Well, friend Tucker, what can 1 do
for you?'
"When you are elected President" !"
said Tucker, "come up to me in this way
and | will tell you"
This is sufficiently characteristic of
the two men to be true, whether it is or
not Tucker is a remarkably plain
spoken gentleman, and Douglas is
proverbial for the affectionate and cares
sing manner in which he greets his ac-
quaintances-particularly if there is
to be made by conciliating
their favor He is zone of the boys"
and not much else.-BufaIo Com. Adv.

Ono TAXABLE PRoPERTY.-It is now
pretty well ascertained that the grand
total of taxable property of Ohio. for the
year 1853, will be about $500, 900, 600.
A tax of 81 mills on the 81 on that
enormous sum, ought to satisfy the cor
morants now in power in Ohio-and en-
able them not only to pay the current
expenses of the State, but considera-
bic amount of the State debt.

H The Eureka Diamond, of which
so much has been said in the California
papers, is on exhibition at San Fran
cisco. From what is said of it, we infer
that it is nothing more than a quartz
crystal. 1t is easily scratched by a
diamond. The San Francisco Times
says: "Some are inclined to think it
piece of crystalized quartz, others think
it an opal, others a white topaz; we are
inclined to think it humbug."

HE REBELLION IN CHNA.-Bayard
Taylor, one Of the editors of the New
York Tribune who has been on an East
ern tour and was lately made an attacbe
to the Chinese Mission, under Col.
Marshall, has lately written to the Tri-
bURS an intelligent account of the great
Rebellion. He says the rebels boldly
avow their intention of oyerthrowinr
the present dynasty. They exhibit the
grestest skill and Judgment in their
operations, and their career is marked
by succession of uninterrupted tn
umphs. They return no city or fortress
which they capture, respect private
property, commit no outrages on indi-
viduals, and seek to conciliate those
whom they conquer. The consequence
is, their ranks are continually increas-
ing, and unless checked before long,
they will succeed in their aims.
SHoEs.-We hear much talk among
the dealers in this article about the ad-
vance in prices, and Judging from what
we hear from individuals and the reports
In northern papers, we presume that
prices the approaching season will be
full fifteen per cent higher than last fall.
This is attributable to the advance in
material and labor and the sudden in
crease in the demand for shipments to
new markets which have sprung up in
the last year or two.-Riehmond W1ig.
