a tractive stocks of
Staple and Fancy Dry Goods, Hats, Caps Bon

ever offered in this market As one of the firm
as usual, will be in the market nearly all of the
season, consequently we think, and with conf
dence assert that we can and will offer Goods for
Cash or Produce at lower prices than any can
that are only in the market small portion
OF the time. Believing the fairest system of SELL
ing goods is to have uniform prices, and less
profits than can possibly be afforded where long
credits are given. Under the ready pay system
the necessity for charging large profits does not
exist, and by selling goods at very small ad-
vance above their cost, endeavor to make it the
interest OF every one to buy on the above terms.

TO SCHOOL TEACHERS.

The Board of Examiners deeming it impor-
tant for the welfare of Public Schools that the
teachers and those designing to become such,
should avail themselves of every opportunity
offered for their advancement beg leave to state
the inducements to attend GRANGER's CONNER
cIAL COLLEGE, during the month of August:
lst. Instructions will be given in all branch
cs of Science, ordinarily required in our Com
mon Schools.
"a. Penmanship will be taught thoroughly
and systematically. The latter inducement the
Board consider highly fiattering.
Those who do not expect to teach during the
cold season, a good opportunity is offered to
review their studies, which all acknowledge a
sane qua non to success.
To those who do not consider themselves
thoroughly prepared for teaching, fine chance
is given to make a due preparation for their re-
sponsible work.
To those who have never taught, a rare on
portunity is afforded to gain the requisite
knowledge. In word, we may say, that in
our opinion there is sufficient inducement TO
ALL who have taught or wish to teach, to spend
few weeks in attendance upon these Lectures.
Prof. TRACY needs no commendation from
us-he is known TO YOU. OF Mr.. Granger, we
simpy y say, that in our judgment, he will spare
no labor or expense in procuring qualified in
structors to assist.

The Louisville (Ky.) Journal thus deprc.
Gates the re-opcning Of slavery agitation, to
which 1t necessarily leads:
"The true interest Of tho country con.
fessedly demands no fresh scheme, however
abstractly proper, which threatens to renew
that fearful agitation through which the M
ton has just passed. but simply prompt
adjustment OF the particular question before
Congress, in the manner most consistent
with the peace OF the Union and the estab-
lshed rights of all nations. There can be
no doubt, in our Judgment, that the Missouri
Compromise most completely answers this
demand. We hope, therefore, that Senator
Douglas will yet think proper to withdraw
his offensive substitute, and report the orig
inal bill introduced by Senator Dodge (iden-
teal with his own Of last session. and save
the nation from the disastrous consequences
OF further and wilder agitation"
= Again, the same paper says:
The prospects are that President Pierce
will force the Nebraska bill through Con.
gress at the end of the party lash. We
iorcsee as its consequence not only fierce and
extended agitation now, but the absolute de.
siruction Of tie confidence Of the North in
The pighted faith Of the South, and the fa.
turc impossibility Of any adjustment what

THE COUNTY APPOINTMENTS.

The appointments made by the Governor
for Sheriff and Register Of Probate, sat
isiactory as they must be to tho entire why
party of the County, cannot fail of being
also generally acceptable to men Of other
political parties. Mr.. MARSHALL of York
the man appointed to the Shrievalty enjoys
and deservedly,a well established reputation
among his townsmen, and in the County at
large. for close business habits and manly
upright conduct in all tho business and socia
relations of life. Although living in town
largely democratic, he has Notwithstanding
his wing views, been frequently called upon
to discharge the duties of the more impor.
tant town oiIices,and possesses to an eminent
degree the confidence and respect of his
townsmen. AS to tho selection of Mr..
BACON for Register of Probate, we canno,
do better than to endorse the following,
which we cut from letter, published in The
last Democrat.
"The nomination of Francis Bacon, Esq,
fer Register of Probate in York County. is
u nomination that must be acceptable to the
wing party. A man more suitable and
capable TO fill that office cannot DO found in
that purity"

FRIEND CowAN: Since tho departure Of
our Saco and Biddelord friends from the
Railroad Mass Meeting, ut this place, the
beacon fires that were so brilliantly lit up
at the meeting, continued to burn with in.
crcasing light and refulgencc. Many doubt
ing minds have caved in and now say the
road must be built forthwith. So eager are
MANY Of our farmers now, they are for Pc
titioning the Legislature, now in session,
to loan the credit of the town to build the
road. l should not be surprised il the
subject was brought before the town to be
acted on in their corporate capacity. We
have good news from Brownfeld, that town
has heretofore been very cold in this enter.
prise, but now being convinced that the
road will be built to its surveyed terminus,
Frycburg, they are ready to do their share
of the building.
The people fur and near, interested in
this Saco River Railroad, regret very much
that they could not attend on the Is inst,
and are very anxious for another Mass
Meeting, and allow me here to make a
suggestion. Would it not be we'll to appoint
q Mass Meeting, at this or some other place,
say North Conway or Lowell, when the
Books shall DO opened for subscription. l
merely suggest it for consideration, the
committee can do what is best.
