Death of Rev. EIenxcr william S.

The Rev. e. Williams, whom some
wicked, or foolish persons sought to pass
off as "the Dauphin of France" or son of
Louis XIV, died at Hogansport, in Bonn
bay, Franklin, county, New York, on the
28,h of August. lie had variety of
diseases, but dropsy is said to have caused
his death. The evidence that has been
brought forward TO support his claim to
royal birth is not one-tenth part as good as
that which has been adduced to show that
Perkin Warbeck was the second son of
Edward w.; and Perkin has been ruled
out Of court. The Rev. Eleazer was no
more Dauphin { or dolphin than he was
a whale, but simply an odd fish.
The funeral was performed by the free
masons, but the Indians took no part In il
save that few squaws looked into the
grave. The warriors all staid away, but
it is not known whether this was from in
difference or from stoicism. Mr.. Williams
in his last days, suffered from the want oi
attention, and other necessaries. Such
was the real Dauphin's fate, so there was
some resemblance between the end of the
Prince and the end of the pretender.

SELECT SUMMER GOODS.
LARGE ASSORTMENT

w have received our NEW SUopo ,or .ne me
w summer trade, and respectfully nvito all
the world and the rest Of mankind to CALI AND
SEB TuEM.
People who would economic and lave their
dimes will do well to call and see how very cheap
goods can be had, and should they not conclude
to purchase from u.s. they will be more conver'
SAINT as to the actual value of all kinds of Goods.
There are great many reasons why people
should closely examine our stock, and while it is
clearly demonstrated that the "obvious meaning
and imports" Of this multitude of reasons refers
directly TO the BEAUTY OF TEXTURE, and
theapness in price of goods, it will at the same
strike the mind of the observing
BOOM
that state OF things combining great and d.
versiied supply, with low prices, must bring
about "consummation devouty to be wished"
in making the POOR MIN RICH, and the rich
man opulent.
And although we may digress, yet permit us
to add that nothing would afford a better ground
work for summer evenings entertainment than
for the kind mother who is presumed to have ex-
amined our stock, TO gather her little flock around
her, and tell them Of BRIGHT 81 SONS beau
tiful goods, the handsome Silks from France and
Italy, the Ribbons and Laces from Lyons, the
Merinos from France, the prints from Manchester,
tio dllu lsaWIS from GlaSgOw ana Dub
lin, and thousand things Of great beauty and
utility. But to be a little more practical, we
will state for the good Of the country, the rising
generation, and the full grown, more in detail
the goods we retail, in very large or smaller
slices, at very greatly reduced prices and though
we may regret we said it, we'll sell our goods on
six months credit, at the end of which the people
'fush," will come and pay us with rush, for
none can feel SO unconcerned about debt so
fully earned, as to be guilty of procrasnation
to the hazard Of their reputation.
Then Gentlemen and Ladies fair, hearken, if
you've the time to spare, and hear of New Goods
rich and rare, received and being opened.
