this practice to both retailers and consumers,
if the Candles are bought at reduction of cents
per 10. from the price of the regular article Thus
A box of "sixes," short 9Ceight, contains 240
Candles, and is sold for 40 fbs., say at I8c
per 10 W
A box of Sevens containing the same num-
ber of Candles, same size, is sold for 81
bs, actual weight, at 20 cents............... 80
Difference in favor of buying weight......... 40
And this differences becomes greater the price
advances It is obvious that the retailer cen get
for his 24O candles in one case than in an
other, consequently, every hundred boxes of
short weight" " he sells, he loses forty dollars.

don't kno what they think this weak. l
concluded, their4, to write u on my

I long thought ov writin 2 somebody

hart.
First, then, as to slavery. Now Abe,
"honey mu1ticuulus,' which, u kno, in

kant kill out slavery. When say
"honny multicaulus,' l kno under

furin languages as spoken on the coast

Abraham Arnold, must dye; and dvin
is the debt all have to pay for the privi-
lege of livin. B content Abe, for, like
Arnold, that's yore fate sure. Now in
certain localities, on spots ov this earth,
death and taxes are tolerable sure but
death everywhere. AS 2 slavery proper,
yourself ''horrible dictu" like Arnold,
are subject 2 the same catastrotee -
an u kno Arnold was a great hand on
catastrofees g! And as Moncher Frank
would sa, ''vot tink wv dat, eh!-
The word "eh' in furin language, on
the coast of Afriker means ''say knack!
In short, the less u say about slavery
the better. As to freein niggers, hope
will use all the might and power in u
vested (by your proclamation concernin
liberty first to make them that's al
ready free, to earn their livin. know
III do that, unless you approve ov
stealth.
Now as to the subject ov revenue. I
hear ar comm through old Virginny,
with all your might as the 1st step to-
wards collectin Revenue. In this We
learnt, on Saturday took the little town
of Alexandria on yesterday took the
little town of Hampton, and ? day we
hear took 25, ,O00ov our troops, Mckn

Now with this success, no doubt IL feel
exultant. We expect soon 2 hear ov
you marching on to Duck nest try
ing 2 take the J of Firginny to pay for
this ears Revenue. Or do II hope first
to envade Virginny, then North and
