to him that raises them as ever they were while
in addition t!o xurplus quantity u fuch briggs
him in rom five 1, ten times their cid price, The
consequence of this is. that Nhle the dcnizens of

are living rs w5ll as they ever did, aid realizing
several hundred per cent rn"re OF profit on the
ARTICLES which they may have :o sell, than they
did in former years.
