NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS..

Ladies and gentlemen, don't you know
At g. p. Blakesley's the place to go,
Ambrotypes Melaneotypes he does take,
And seldom. if ever, an error does make.
Autographs and other pictures too, we find,
Are taken in style To suit the mind,
For few weeks only, at just half price,
He will take your pictures, and that In a trice
Then walk right up to the Daguerrean Car,
You Ladies and Gents that come from afar,
And YOU that live near should never delay,
But quick get likeness, for YOU twill pay.
His Car is opposite the Canada Store,
Where many likenesses he has taken before,
And the Canada Store is on Front street,
Where George will be happy his friends to greet.
No difference it makes in regard to the weather,
If it is cloudy bright as light as feather,
For in the business he has been for three years past
And every Improvement has learned to the last
Now, in himself, he has great confidence of late,
| No Artist before in this village so great,
| Could ever with him begin to compare,
| For all them he can beat, is the truth, declare
Particular attention to children is paid
From A. NJ, to p. NJ, so don't be afraid
To bring along your children, and your money
likewise,
And get nice picture that will please your eyes
~" All are invited to call and examine speci
/ mems.

BRowS & CARRIERS Book STORE
-Sneakine of the removal of this firm iuto new
and large store in order to accommodate tneir
decreasing trade, the Jackson Citizen says - len
years ago. the was nothing worthy OF the name
&c a hook store in the county, when hr George u
Rrevn stopped to close out an old stock of books
at auction. Thinking it good point for trade MI.
Brown the next spring brought out a good stock,
and from that time to the present. Jackson could
boast of one of the largest and best book stores IN
the State. Fully up to the spirit of the age, tins
House has never been found wanting in any degree,
but has always been amply stocked to meet the
demands of both the wholesale and retail trade IN
Central Michigan. Within the past year and hall
they have added the gift system to their retail
trade. and aside from the increased sale OF books
have distributed thousands of dollars worth OF rich
and rare, fancy and useful goods among our people
In their present roomy and pleasant location they
will present renewed attractions to customers, and
as usual, be ever prepared to astonish all who
call with the extent of their stock and the low
ness of their prices" See their advertisement in

IAn1Es, BANouEr-Thc Festivities

LADIES' BANoUET.-Thc festivities
on Wednesday and Thursday evenings last, on the
occasion of the Ladies' Banquet for the benefit of
the Methodist society passed off with much sclat.
Everything seemed to be arranged with exceed
ingly good taste, and the enjoyment of goodly
things was participated in by a very large number
of our citizens. The well arranged tables, loaded
with the good things that fascinate the eye and
please the taste, seemed to possess peculiar attrac
tons to those present, and edibles disappeared
with rapidity that reflected great credit upon
those who came fully prepared for the emergencies
of the occasion. The Post Office" created much
interest, and from the number of letters which ap
peared among the gentlemen, the ladies must have
been very busy for some days in writing them
Everybody appeared to enjoy themselves highly
at all events We did, and if any did not, they hav'
only themselves to blame.
