TO OUR CUSTOMERS,

A Nd those knowing Themselves indebted 10
n US in particular. MANY Of YOU are aware
that on the night Of the Ith of November 1913,
we had our Store destroyed By fire, thereby To-
sing some 5000, and not one dollar insured.
And vet We did not make pressing call upon
those that were indebted TO us; on the contrary,
We said to our debtors pay if you can, it not we
will endeayor to get along until spring; beiieY-
ing that the spring emigration would enable
the Farmers 10 sell their produce at good round
prices, aud thereby be able to pay up; bat on
the opening OF spring, and the flow OF Emigra-
ton, produce Wa very low, farmers were dI>ap
pointed, and great many of oar debtors we're
unable to pay, and still we INDUCED. But now
alas, on the night OF the 2lst inst. we met with
the same fate, oar s,o,chouse and nearly all our
goods were lost. II is true we have some insu-
rance this time, but not enough to cover our
losses. Therefore will not be able to re.
same business this winter but will give partic-
uar attention TO collecting in VIII is owing, so
that we can pay those we owe Now Ito those
that are indebted TO u.s. come up to the mark
like good Christians. Settle with and pay us,
for YOU have been blessed with good crops this
season, and YOU must certaioiy be- able to pay up
this Fail and Winter, and by so doing you wiki

the saving win be from one to two thousand
dollars per mile, and, if water should be intro
duced into our city, the saving in the first 1--WE
years by the Introduction of Falconer's coupling
for gas and water-pipes together would, at the
lowest calculation, amount to 100000. This is
for Washington alone, and this is but fraction
Of lis application, taking into account the cities
throughout the country.
In sanitary point Of view Falconers coupling
is of the greatest Importance to the community.
An investigation last year by chemists and physi-
clans in the city of London proved that "eyery
cubic foot Of soil taken anywhere in the city con-
tanned poison enough to kill man." The poisons
were sulphretted hydrogen and bisulphuret Of car
bon from the impure coal gas leaking from the
pipes and fltering through the soil, and the state
ment was made by Them that unless this evil was
abated g the city would in the course of time be-
come uninhabitable." The frequent destruction
of shade trees In our city by the leakage Of gas
and the suocating stencil arising from excavations
made in the neighborhood of gas pipes testifies
too truly as to what is going on under our feet;
and as Falconer's coupling appears to be the only
safeguard against this evil we trust the remedy has
not come too late. CHAs. G. PAGE.

The Richmond Penny Post relates the fol.
lowing instances, occurring within the editors
own personal knowledge, which exhibit the
favorable sentiments many intelligent and
educated foreigners are known TO entertain
towards the American party:
"A gentleman, of Irish birth and blood, but
man who knows something, sat down in our Office
few days since, read patiently the address In
reply to Mr.. Wise's letter, and then bought 80
copies to distribute among his friends. He said
the sentiments were bis exactly, and he agreed
with us.
1--WE could point, II we had the liberty, TO
several gentlemen in this city--Irish, German, and
Scotch--who declare openly that they are In favor
of this American movement and would join II they
were eligible. They mean, too, to vote the Know
Nothing ticket.
"a gentleman of this city has just detailed TO us
several additional facts Of the same nature He
says that, in conversation with an intelligent
Englishman he asked him who would be elected
in New York; He replied that he hoped Ullmsn
would be. This being a little surprising to our
friend, the Englishman explained himself by saying,
I" that although an Englshman, he was unwilling to
be ruled by the miserable and corrupt Irish, Dutch
and Germans who flock here in such numbers.
That he was perfectly willing to be ruled by Amer
icans-but in his native land he was afraid of those
peopie-they were a dangerous set, and he was
afraid to be in their power

The church gives to her Bishops and Archbish-

Boone County Missouri Meeting

We see from correspondent of the Re-
publican, in Boone, that the Switzler & Rol-
lins faction was in the majority, and as we
feared passed batch of resolutions, full
of 'big words" but amounting to nothing.
We are gratified to find that so large a
number however, were for taking strong
grounds. Switzler s. Rollins, as usual
cannot find it in their hearts to saw a word
against the fanatical Abolitionists Of the
North, without abusing the South in the
same breath. We would like for Swltzler
to point to any man, or State South that
for year past has proposed, or limited at
notification and yet when denouncing the
Abolitionists, he must lug in nulliiers.
In the seventh resolve they ''pledge their
lives, fortunes, and sacred honor" to pro-
tect by 'legal and honorable" means, their
citizens from inrasion, Sednion, and
freaehery! Can anything be more absurd2
Whoever heard of rcsorting to illegal and
honorable means" to resist invasion, sedi-
ton and treachery7 AS was very truly
said by the Rev. L. Kerr, s.honorable war
fare is for honorable enemies" but for the
invader, the seditious and the treacherous,
the most efficient means must be brought
to bear to crush them.
1t seems that the Rev. Mr.. Shannon, the
able and patriotic President OF the State
University, Foreigner tho he be) expos
ed the weakness and treachery of Switzler
& Co., resolves. They are very tender
footed on the Slavery question and wish to
stife discussion or agitation of the ques-
.tion. We guess that fear OF an expo
sure of their own s'rottenness' is the Sc
eret of the sixth resolvc, more than any
dread of evil consequences to the State
Reserre suits such Patriots admirably.-
If Professor Shannon never is guilty Of
any greater indiscretion than that OF expo
sing such men as Switzler and Rollins,
long will, and may he maintain the situa-
ton he now fills with SO much honor. The
only regret we feel is that Boone county
does not more fully appreciate SO noble a
defender of Southern Rights.
