it, and are free TO say that as Mr.. SAMP-
SON has endeayored, as far as posi-
BILE, TO lessen the burden upon his
people during these hard times, by char

terial duties, that he deserves, and the
people ought to give him, liberal and
excellent donation. The donation will
come off on next Thursday, the eOtf
inst. Sleighs will be in attendance at c
o'clock, P. M.
The little folks, with whom Mr.
SAMPSON is in universal favor, have like
wise concluded to get him up donation

the occasion will prove most interesting
to the children, and profitable to the Ell
der. II is the intention, wo believe, tc
give the little ones sleigh-ride on Fri
day afternoon, and in the evening thew
all visit Mr.. SAMPSON with their dona

are to have music to accompany them or
their ride, and probably Throughout. the

Conductor NoRTHRUp, on the west end
