STRANGER IL TowN.-We have been gratifed
by call from Frederick Aver Esq, the busi
ness man OF the firm of j. C. Aver & Co,
Lowell. A short acquaintance with the gentle
man convinces us that not the Doctors skill
in compromising his medi, ines is alone con-
cerned in the immense consumption of them :
but that il takes business talent of no ordinary
measure to pass them around the world. Mr..
Aver, manifestly, has these abilities and the
success of his house shows that he uses them.

Those who intead to build either an hum BILE res

THE RAFTse0Aless JouRp1Al.
Is HK souKn,

We are informed that the Breckinridge can
didate tor Senator, has been travelling round
exhibiting certifcates-one from Capt. Ogden
and one from Capt. " 'Culiough-to prove his
loyalty. We never thought of specially cal
ling i: in question, but we think ii r.ust be a
very siekiy kind Of loyalty that requires the
peddling round of certificates to back it up.
If Mr.. W Wallace had ever made speech in IA
vor OF enlstments, the community would know
where he stood withoHta certificate. If he
had ever taken public and ontspoken posi-
tiOn in favor of the Government and the war,
it would not be necessary to travel around ex-
hibiting bis spapers'. He may have. and
doubtless did contribute moderately OF his
means>to assist the above named gentlemen in
raising their companies. But he ought 10 be
able to give some stronger evidence than this
of his loyalty. if it is necessary to give any
evidence at all. 1t is passing strange, that
lawyer and public man has no better record
to furnish of his loyalty to his country than
this. Could he not prove that, counsel of
the County Commissioners, he advised them
TO lay the relief tax required by law, for the
wives and children of our absent soldiers !?
or would the hand writing of the answerto the
application to the Court TO compel them to dis
charge their duty, be in his way! Gould he not
prove that he stood ready at all times 10 go at
his country's call in her defence or would
that certificate of exemption be in the way
We apprehend that the loyal men of this
district will want TO cast their votes for can
didate that don't need to peddie around cerii-
fcates to prove his patriotism. There is no
difficulty in asceriaining where Hon. l.. ".
HALL stands in this great struggle. He has
record, and one, of which he need not be a.
sbamcd. Ever since the war commenced,
his voice has been heard, like clarion peal
throughout the Commonwealth in support of
theGoyerpment, ,and in denuncission of treach-
cry and traitors. Those who cast their votes
Tor L. w. Hall, know they supporting a
man true to his country and its Government
and who will spare no effort TO crush out this
wicked and unholy rebellion.
