worth advertising; but the reader must
know that the business man who throws
out his sign IN newspaper, and is not
ashamed OF his stock of goods. can ALWAYS
furnish better qualities at u lower price
than those who, either through sham or
penurlousness, never let the public know
what they are doing"
THE ALARM BELL. We are pleased to
state that the alarm bell, which was for
merly suspended in the market steeple.
has been nnearthed, and having under
gone thorough examination and trial,
was found to have preserved its Gne tone
unimpaired, notwithstanding the fiery or
deal through which it has passed. 1t is to
be placed in tower, near Sidney Park;
until such time as the city finances will
warrant the erection of n proper steeple.
This bell was manufactured by Messrs.
Alexander and McDouyal, in 1885, and,
through the medium of it's brazen throat.
unr citizens were Informed Of the scccs-
sion of the different States. At l O'Clock.
on the morning OF the 18th Of the ever
memorable February, the stecple was
burned, and the bell WAS precipitated to
the ground, where its musical notes We're
hu>Aed amid the Common wreck.
