ADVERTISE z

Editor Ashland Union SIR :-As YOU
appear to be laboring with commemorate zeal
to keep your readers posted in regard to all
matters affecting their political, social and pc
cuniary welfares, permit US to call their atten-
ton to the fact that we have just received the
heaviest stock of Spring and Summer Goods
that we have ever brought to this market. An
extended enumeration of our stock we deem
altogether unnecessary for the reason that eve
ry one who Will favor us with a call viii find it
simply simply say that it embraces articles of
every style, variety and quality of Ladies'
Dress Goods, and Gentlemen's Summer Wear,
together with a large assortment of House
Keeping Goods, Queensware, Groceries, &c.
Having changed our mode of doing business,
it will be proper for US to state, for the salts
faction CT our old customers, briefly, our rea-
sons for SO doing. Our first great object is to
sell goods CHEAP. To do this we must have the
money to buy our goods cheap. We wish to
avoid the losses of bad debts and " long wind
ed customers we wish to save the expense
of keeping books and making collections. By
so doing we can and will sell goods at much
less profits than is possible for any credit store
to do LIST, because we shall have the money
to buy our goods, which will save US 10 per
cent, 2nd, because we shall save the expense
of one Clerk Sd, we will save 5 per cent. for
making collections, losses by bad debts and
expense of books. All things considered, we
think it safe to say that it will make a, differ
enee of at least Is per cent. to the consumer.
This being true we think every man, woman
and child who can pay for their goods, will
avail themselves of the advantages of this sys-
tenn. Those who never expect to pay for their
goods, of course care but little about the price.
those who wish to buy goods cheap for rea-
dy pay can find a stock of goods which for va
styles and low prices, has never been
equaled in the County, by calling on their
and well-wishers,

doses unspecifed in the agreement of the
congregation. I agree, too, that on all
other occasions, tho preacher has his
right, equally With every other citizen,
to express his sentiments ip speaking OF
writing, ON the subjects of medicine,
law, politics, &c. His leisure time be-
ing his own, and bis congregation not
obliged to listen to his conversation or
read his writings; and no one would
have regretted more than myself, had
any scruple as to this right, withheld
from US the valuable ~discourses which
have led to the expression of IN opinion
as to the true limits of the right.
1 feel my portion of Indictment to
the reverend author for the distinguished
learning the logic aud the e~loquence
with which he has proved that religion,
as we'll as reason, confirmed the sound
ness OF these principles on which our
government has been founded and Its
rights asserted.
These are my views of this question.
They are in opposition to those of the
highly respected and able preacher, and
are therefore the more doubtiagly offer
ed. Difference of opinion lends to in
quiry, and inquiry to truth, and that l
am sure, is the ultimate and sincere OBJ
ject of Us both.
We both value too much the freedom
of opinion sanctioned by our Constitu-
ton, not to cherish its exercise even
where in opposition to ourselves.
Unaccustomed to reserve or mystery
in the expression of my opinions, l have
opened myself frankly on a question
suggested by your letter and present.
And although I have Tot the honor Ct
your acquaintance, this mark of atten-
ton, and still more the sentiments of
esteem so kindly expressed in your let
ter, are entitled TO q confidence that OBJ
servations not intended for the public
will not be ushered to their notice as has
happened to me sometimes. tranquil
at my age, is the balm of life.
While 1 know I am safe in the honor
Of a Mcleod, [ do not wish to be cast
to the Marats, the Dantons and the
Robespierres of the Priesthood; l mean
he Parishes, the Ogdens, and the Gardi-
lers of Massachusetts.
l pray you to accept the assurances
IF my esteem and respect.
