w Echo answers BOSTWlCK d BEATTY.
asIense Read tIlc following.


Kind readers attention, forget once your cares,
Wen sing you song Of the mercantile wares;
The subjects not new, butt interests all,
From the old TO the young, from the great to the sma
The farmer the printer, the carpenter too,
And all of that class who have plenty TO do;
The lawyers, ofcourse, though fen in this place,
Still they have an iut'rest as well as case;
A nd every young man who consults well his purse,
A nd Young lady too, give heed to this verse.
Number rs the place where bargains are sold,
Where conscienee's respected and truth ever told,
Where all may trade safely, q fair profit reap,
Where all that have cash buy goods that cheap;
Where all who have produce can trade as with cash,
And carry home good goods instead ofpoor trash.
Our stock is complete in every respect,
And every thI & kept in way that's correct.
We have coffee and tea, ah! who dare deny il,
That's the best in our town, please come and tryit
And sugar that's sweet as every one knows,
For the very best proofs the way it all goes.
We have cinnamon, cloves, ground pepper and rice,
Cocoa and choculate. bnrnt coffee, and spice,
Nutmegs. saleratus, good candles, and rope,
Tobacco, molasses, whale oil, and soap.
In fae: every thing in the grocery line,
Frem sugar and syrupsto good wrapping twine.
But we boast ofour queens ware rightf1liy too,
II takes In all colors from white to pale blue;
Now ladies remember the place to buy ware
Is at old number tits always found there.
Wchave carpets and rugs, both cotton and wool,
And our stock in that line Is always kept full.
We have dress goods, trimmings and edgngs to sell,
And knick -nacks and notions too tedious to tell.
But ladies, OH ladies, there's nothing so nice
As q nice little n tier, with nice little price;
They don't pinch the toes nor the pockets atalI,
They'll suit at all times either a church or ball;
So tarry not long, come and get the first pick,
For the best will all sell most terrible quick.
They hardly need praise, but I'll mention collars
That cost from sixpenee upto FIVE dollars:
They are done up in style, most perfect in shapes,
Some are bound with silk lace, and some bound with
tapc. ....r.. ..r..
But tIey are not all that calls your attention
OF talmas and shawls we still have 10 mention;
The yatters French and of course they are right
THEY'LL keep you so warm of a cold winters night
Our stock of merinOs and coburss is full, T,
Well warrant them all to be cotton or wool;
So come here and bay, do not purchase elsewhere
Your hosiery, diapers, tablc-spreads fair,
Your bed spreads tckiRgs your comforts TO
Round your neck in cold weather. but will DECLARE
Eef,re VIC proceed with this our rude sonnet,
You never did see such a love of a bonnet
As we can present to your wondering eyes;
Some tire brown. some tan. some blue as the skies,
Snuear' pink, some purple, some variousd dyes;
They viz saittl cry age, they III ft every size.
Now .lleaSr 10 remember our silks plaid and black,
They're warranted all not to crook or 10 crack;
4 nd e v 10 sells cheaper than we will or can,
Is lGeHy indeed. most fortunate man.
But now we have come 10 our line Of delaines,
They were all bought with cash and great deal palms,
So the thingis quite plain the fact please regard,
That BostUickN Beatty UiH scHa better quality If de
laine than any other merchant in Rarennd, for one
shilling yard. .,.
II takes too long
To sing the song -
Ofall we have TO sell;
Come friends and alp,
Give us a call, ....
So patrons now farewell.
