LOCAL ITEMS.

WANTED-an active lighting man to do
the outside dirty work of our Office, to
whom liberal compensation will be al
lowed. Increasing age and an in6rm
condition of the editorial liver, together
with desire for little more ease after
turbulent life of many years, compel US
to seek for help, regardless of pecuniary
consideration. Fightings without if ac-
complshed satisfactorily by second hand,
will leave US no fears within. we will
still however attend to such little jobs as
are met in the way, and occupy no time,
all others must be done by our gentle
man outsider, who must be perfectly
competent. Noses which require peeling
in our official capacity are invited into
the sanctum, where the process can be
gone through with ease and dignity.
No one need apply for the above 'posish'
who has not cultivated his muscle, and
applicants will be put through a regular
course of sprouts. The public are invi-
ted to attend each exhibition, of which
further notice will be given, in the hope
that these displays of science may have
a salutary influence upon the hereafter
pugnaciously inclined. Shiver our tim
bers, yes.

This is the most completely designed and

or publisher. Pickwick," the initial
of his humorous works, and still the most
amusing; "Our Mutual Friend" his la

best, and David Copperfeld," also one
of his most readable works, are now be-
fore the public in this dainty form, and
their rapid sale we'll attest5 the populari-
ty they have achieved. The Rochester
Democrat pertinently says:
"A renewed circulation and still wider
reading of Dickens cannot prove other
wise than n blessing to the country for
who shall deny that this genial novelist
is not, wherever he may go, a missionary
of good as well rs of delight; making men
and women better, whilst he makes them
smile; sOftening and enlarging the heart,
even as he gratifieS the love of humOr,
the sensibilities that sympathize with the
pathetic, and the artistic taste that relish
cs pictures of homely and intensely hui

paign for the deservcdiy loved and pOpu-

for what it is as we'll as for what it has
done. For its convenient form, its dis
tinct though necessarily small type, and
excellent original illustrations by Eytinge,
it merits commendatiOn, and meets pop
ular want at very moderate price. 1t is
something new, beautiful, and useful like
wise in the way of bookmaking; and by
its very peculiarities is quite sure to be a
favOrite, no matter how many attractive

one indeed. and all present enjoyed a
MERRY Christmas afternoon.
In the evening similar entertainments
were held in the Island and Chapline

everybady appeared well satisfied.
