WRITTEN NoTICEs.-We notice occa-
sionly written 'Notis' stuck up in some
obscure corner, as if the author was
ashamed to post it in more conspicuous
place. Any man who writes his notices
for public sale, or things of that kind,
and gives economy a: reason, shows a
sad deficiency Of knowledge. Tie is pen
ny wise and pound foolish as nobody
bat old fogies will stop to read written
handbills now a days If man has any
thing to sell and exp,c's to ge, lis value,
he must let it be known, aud Printers
Ink is the only proper medium.
UNCLAIMED FRACTIONAL CURRENCY.
Treasurer Spinner desires persons VINO
have Forwarded packages of mut.!ated
frec'iyual currency to the Treasury De
r2rtnent, but have not received reply,
announcing the receipt Of the package
and inclosing the amount Of the sum for
wartlrd, TO address 4 letter as before, stat
iug distinctly the amount forwarded, the
date OF transmittal, and the name and
post Office add:cSs of the writer. The
officers OF the Treasury may thus be en-
aJled to identify large number Of pack
ages now in their possession, the forward
ers of which ne5 lected 10 state their
names or post Offices. .....---.
IIIGu PRICES.-Since the close of the
war every one has been hoping and look
ing for a reduction in the prices OF the
necessaries Of life. From present iDd-
cations, however, the cost of living is
likely to be higher than ever during the
coming winter. One article only, coal,
is cheaper than it has been, while meat,
-four, groceries and dry goods have all an
upward tendency. The grain crops have
been far above the average, and it was
thought that breadstuffs would be cheaper,
but the poor crops everywhere in Europe,
and the waste and destruction of the Ger
man war, have created foreign demand
for American grain and run up the prices
The people, then, must meet these high
prices with propOrtionate economy, and
the rich should not neglect the poor, for
whom there is hard winter in sore.
