Kind and gentle reader! Did you
ever step into a Hardware store, to
make friendly visit, and have the
Proprietor come at you with knife! a
six-bladed Knife! one Of Wade &
Butchers best articles? If you have
ever experienced such a thing, You can
perchance form some estimate of our
feelings on stepping into the door of
Mr.. Packard, to enquire into the occa-
sion Of the commotion in and around
that establishment, growing ont of the
arrival of his Mammoth stock of Hard
ware, nails, glass, and everything else
in that line. The knife above alluded
TO, most splendid one, was received
in our pocket Friend Packard has
plenty more left of the same sort. Call
and see him, he can satisfy YOU
