The SPRING BUSINESS has been commenced
with unusual briskness and activity by our mer-
chants; and if they do not "get ahead" il will
be the fault of the people, not them. Several

seen by their advertisements in the present
issue, will be sold at reduced rates. Among
the latest arrivals, have been Miss s. E. Bell.

mitted to end his days in retirement. He saved
from the massacres at Lucknow forty or fifty
English or Anglo Indian men, women and chill

examination at New Castle, on Monday and
Tuesday, before Chief Justice Gipin, of the
the persons charged with causing the death Of
young Roache, resulted in the acquittal Of
Messrs. Harrington and Giles, and the retain

that Weaver committed the fatal act, eHly cir

after the occurrence, and from his having been
seen to 60 to and return from the room with a
dagger in his hand. The blood spoken of in
another column as being found on Ilarrington's
