j. COURTNEY is acting salesman for Hayt
& Burdick, lumber-dealers at North Nc
Gregor. II. & B. have yards here and at
the NEG. West. Railway. Courtney is an
accommodating gentleman, and will make
favorable business impression while he
works for the interest of two dealers of
such unexceptionable character as HAYr &
BURDlcK......In abiding, last week, to Mr..
Lorin Kennedy's aid in assisting ladies to
the understandings Of Whitney & Co.'s
skeleton Skates, we had forgotten that Mr..
Jed. Bascom and Mr.. Henry Gay, both of
the Whitney Store, each as young and
amiable as Lorin, were the proper persons
to introduce to the lady public as perform
ers Of the delicate Office referred to. We
regret very much that an error so patent
was committed; but having now made it
right by apology, We tender our respects
to both of the young beaux, and in case Of
discussion among them, either Of the TINES
editors will perform the Office Of skate
fastener with the greatest pleasure. III.

Templars. and G. w. Howe is w. S. Tie
card of the l. 0. G. I. will be changed
next week. The Outside is interesting
but not lively this week. ANDY's Message
is long, logical, legal. The man who at
tacks it only gnaws a file, as did Esop's
viper. On the fourth page there are ref
crences to Young Girls, Hancock Order,
Miscellany, and Thanksgiving at the South.
VIM. Rock, the Englishman, the cat
tle-ist, and the social TRUMP, is making
gloves, on upper Main-st., of the best In
dian-tanned buckskin. Rock gets his
tan. ed material from the far North, away
above St. Paul, where the hides are tough
er and better tanned. Call on the Anglo
Hoos,er and get pair of Gloves OF the
best quality. Dealers supplied at paying
rates, for retail. Esq. Hurlburt is still
here, taking subscriptions for Gen. Bakers
Detective Book. Baker is under arrest for
perjury in the Impeachment case but the
Squire doesn't seem to mind it. He has
more orders now for the work than he had
before the arrest Of the author. If John
Brown was a martyr, why isn't Baker q
saint ?......E. p. Clarke informs US that he
will probably keep the Flanders Hotel !;
we had been previously told that Mr.. Da-
vid Allen would be its landlord. In this
conflicting testimony we are like the Dutch
justice who heard opposing witnesses
swear to the circumstances of the case be-
fore him: SPY sure !von mans he schpeaks
Something's und an ouder mans he say some
dings more as vas not te same dings as dc
ouder mans sprechen. Now, py shingo, Ich
knows nix apout it" Either of the gem
tlemen will make a landlord of the best
quality. We anxiously await an invitation
to the opening dinner, in either case......
