Important Matters Relating to Trade
SOMEWHAT PERSONAL, BUT NEVERTHELESS TRUE.
The space which our notice Of tho Show
and Fair occupies, necessarily crowds ou'
much miscellaneous matter which we
should have been glad to have published this
week. Our patrons, one and all, will per-
ceiye that the dealers in Dry Goods, Cloth
ing. Jewelry. and Fancy Goods, as we'll as
others, have made simultaneous rush Tor
our advertising columns this week, and that
we have ourselves, under high sense Of
public duty, and desire topronote private
interests, been overcome by the pressure,
submitting with grace, and with the feeling
that while II wss certainly best for our nd.
vcr,isiug friends and the public, It might
no, be bad for ourself.

weeks ago, we remarked that ono Of the
Stores was to be occupied by Mr.. Charles

Goods, understands the wants OF purchas-
ers, and will get his share OF the trade. We
may also say that the old frm Of FISHER &
srrcxAS have. as will be seen by their ad-
verisement, got safely moved into their
beautiful Store in the Calef Block, where
they will be happy to see customers, old and
new, and TO afford al who desire, an oppor-
tunity to select goods from rs rich and va
ried stock rs can DO found hero or else.
