Col. Hyde has just returned from mar
ket, and is now offering a: his store, fresh
lot of groceries Of all kinds, salt, fish, lard
&c. He also has a very nice lot of crock
cry, got up in the latest styles, and at this
time is probably the best assortment any
where in this vicinity. We invite the la
dies to look at ii. We are quite sure they
will agree with US. Among his new goods
d we also observed fine lot winter apples.

III The weather is splendid. Last Satur-
&day was one of the most lovely days of an
&Iudian Summer. Wednesday was another.
8Business is brisk, farmers are doing next
Springs work, and every body seems to
Ae trying to make the most Of the fleeting
hours, knowing well that ere long a change
will surely come. Fair faces are out, dry
FOODS futter finely, and altogether the sea-
Non is one of remarkable pleasantness. Let
/, be improved.
If there is any time when We feel tempt
ed to break the decalogue, it is when we
bass down Canal street and obs rive those
1ice chickens hanging out at Browns store.
They are fat ard nice. like great many
eiher things sold at that place.
The performance of the Band of Hope

c0lrse very voluble, though she often dis
daimed any such thing. Her part was per-
