Their stock is large and the assortment

If what you tell me find so,
shall tell ali the neighbors there to go,
For "a sixpence saved is a shilling earned, !"
So remember this is a good thing learned.
That they can retail so low is a matter OF

But the secret of this in a nutshell lies
They buy for cash, and sell for the same,
So they don't have to charge for "ducks

crowned the Nonparets in the FIRST game, Owing
to the hardness OF the Eonpareils 1t was
fully an hour beyond tho appointed time
when they made their appearance In the
field. There was not much time lost, however,
in getting to work and both parties entered the con-
test with good will. The N0npareil nine took the
bat, and obtained q lead at the start, which they
increased gradually up to the close OF the nth
innings. The Dauntless then got IN on the bat
ting, and by good hits, largely assisted by some
splendid displays OF "muninism," they scored seven
runs. In the last innings the Daantless had the ad-
vantage Of tho increasing darkness while ut the bat
and hit away in lively style, creeping up TO and pass
their adversaries until they stood In the van with
five runs. It was evident from the very commence
ment that the Dauntless nine were much better
posted In the game and rightly took every oppor.

parcels were almost too numerous ro,mention. This
was the opening game OF the Dauntless and they
showed well their ability to fight good up HIN

The Alabama Delegation.

WASHINGTON. September 26.-The
delegation of the Alabama Legislature
having neglected to bring the authen'
ticated copy of the resolution under
which they are acting, will await its
arrival by mail before officially visiting
the President. Gov. Smith is with the
delegation, by request of the Leglsla,
ture to advise and support them. he
has no official functions to perform
here in connection with the present
application for troops. He is Of opin'
ion that the action of the Legislature,
though unusual in form, meets the re-
ouiremsnts of the Constitution in the
matter of sending for Federal aid. He
does not fully sympathize with the
Legislature in it's call for additional
troops, and expresses his confidence in
his own ability to maintain the peace
of the State; the people desire peace
and he has the assurance Of men OF both
parties of support in his efforts. There
Is some disorder on the line of the Ten
uessse river and north of Mobile, but
elsewhere throughout the State there
are no indications of disturbance, and
no disposition to resist the law. In nc
other portion has any officer regularly
installed in Office been resisted in the
perfor nance of his duties. The Cover
nor is apprehensive that during the ex
citement of the coming election, i'm
prudent persons may commit acts whicf
will lead to serious disturbances, miles!
restrained by some assurance fron th'
President that they will be put down
by Federal authority. Beyond this
assurance, Gov. Smith is inclined tt
think that ne Federal interference II

WElay before our readers, to-day, the
speech of J. N. CAMDEN, Esq. made in
Mason City on the 9th inst. Mr.. CAM
Den, was introduced to the meeting by
the Hon. JoHN HALL, President of the
meeting. IL will be remembered that
the Radicals, shortly after the nomina-
tions at New York, seeking to bolster o
sinking cause, announced with much
flourish that the Hon. JOHN HALL was
acting with that party. The current
in that part of the State does not run
in that way, while hundreds of men of
worth and integrity, who acted with
the Republicans, are now sound and
Jealous Conservatives.
Mr. CAMDEN's speech is clear, calm,
candid and argumentative. He appeals
TO no passion, it excites no prejudices,
1t addresses the good sense, intelligence
aud sound patriotism of the people. 1t
is well reasoned, urbans and gentleman
ly in its tone, it is elevated in its views,
1t is clear in its facts and deductions,
and eviuces high order of states
