the truth bit to say that the best merchant
tailoring ever done in this town came from
ELLEgMAN's; and there is another fact that
the people should understand. and many Of
them do, that the best fitting, most durable,
and cheapest suits of ready made clothing
likewise come from the Philadelphia Clothing
Emporium. The same may be said of hats,
caps, and furnishing goods. ELLEaaAs's is

Cedar Falls Quota--Therc must be en-
listed in Cedar Falls, between this and the
9Th day Of January next, thirty seven volun-
teers in order to avoid draft in this Town
ship. In order to raise this number Of men
there has got to be more zeal manifested than
there is at present. Our citizens must throw
off their apathy, and 60 70 work with will.
In neighboring towns meetings arc being
held, speeches made, and special inducements
offered to men TO enlist. Here nothing at
all is being done, and if this inactivity con-
snucs there will certainly be draft. We
suggest that meeting be called, and steps
taken with the view Of raising our quota by
enlistmcn.s. Alta public meeting we can get
general expression Of views, and decide
upon what course it is best to pursue in fur
theranco Of this object. As II is there is no
system, no concert Of action, and therefore
nothing is being accomplished. The induce.
ments to enlist are very liberal, and they
may be found stated at length in another
place. Who will set the ball in motion.
