NEW MANAGEMENT.

HAVING for the psst eight years faithfully E A tried the Credit system in this vicinity, and ound to our sorrow that it is not only ruinous to ourselves, but to our friends. We have therefore come to the conclusion to adopt the system of READY PAY, confident that by so doing we can offer much greater inducements to our customers. than those who sell on .ong credit, and In many cases neuer get their pay. Consequently those who do pay are charged Auch Hgher Prices to make up for others deficiency.
 If you would buy goods in the cheapest possible way PAY WHEN YOU BUY. Do not be deceived by any statement that Mir. Credit will make; de- pend upon it it is false Credit pays a much greater price for his goods than Cash and of course must get greater price. Cash offers us induce ments so much greater than credit can that we have adopted his system-Quick Sales and Small Profits
 We have just returned from New York and other markets with great assortment of Goods in our line. bought almost exclusively with CASH, and at prices which defy competition.
 We only ask our friends to examine our stock to be convinced that '' Hard Times has snsaked off withovt even a '' kick

SAVE 1r.-Yes, young man, save it. Put it in a Safe place, and add to it often. We refer to the half dime you were on the point of exchanging for "drink." Get stout box made and whenever you are tempted to spend your coin for useless in- diligence, drop it into the said box instead and lis ten to its musical jingle. An you have no idea how three cent bits, and half dimes and quarters count up. But try this savings bank for year, and then count your coin, and you will learn how much money you might have wasted. And not on- ly wasted money, but time-precious priceless time, and formed habits of idlcness and dissipation, which cung to the unfortunate possessor, as the fabled burning shirt of Nessus clung to him who once put it on. Yes, save your money, young man, and spend your leisure hours at home with your mother and sisters, occupy yourself with earnest and judi cious study. and instead of being newer of wood aid drawer of water, you will stand a chance of taking rank with the great, prospered, and honored ones of the earth.

A Muss 1NrHE FOURTH REGIMENT.-The difficulty betv cen Col Brady of the fourth regiment and Gen. Arnold, at the New Hartford Encampment, men, tioned by our correspondent on Saturday grew into a downright quarrel on the afternoon of that day, and others gotcompicated in it. Brigade-Inspector Candee. of New Haven, came on the ground and or dered Col. Brady to pass down the regiment with him; Col. Brady refused, saying he would not go till Candee had inspected his Brady staff-whcre- upon Inspector Candee replietl-'' Then your regi- ment shall not be inspected at all" and retired to his marquee Thither Col. Brady with his staff soon after followed him; and presently Gen. Arnold came up and interfercd in the muss,' when Col Brady told him it was none of his business Gen. Arnold then ordered the sentinel to put Col Brady under arrcst-whereupon Col. Brady ordered Gen Arnold to be put under arrest! Neither order was cbeyed. and the disgraceful quarrel is to end in Court Martial.-Hutford Times.

PARALYSIS RESULTING FROM ToBAcco TN Fo1LED.- Within few years past tin foil has come into very general use in the place of paper, an article in which to put up chewing tobacco. Circumstances, however, have happened which prove it is dangerous to use tobacco done up in that article. The Boston Traveller has the following on the subject:
 7" The change from paper to tin-foil wrappers was convenient and the new article grew into favor d. mong tobacco chewers At first, consumers had to pay pretty good price for it. but of late the article has been cheapened. But it has just received blow that, we think, must terminate its entire use Itis now asserted and with severe experience to support It, that the tin foil has dangerous poisonous quail ties Two cases have just arisen that are calculated to give great celebrity to the belief Police Justice Bagg, of Detroit and prominent citizen of Cincin- nat have been attacked by strokes of paraly Bis, induced as the physicians declare, by the poi s'nous influence of tin foil used by tobacco vendors If this judgment be sound we may expect to see at once, general abolition of the use of the artcle'
