lied a band of roughs, and promised to keen
the ballot box intact till the election closed
With the reward for this service he bought
himself a new suit of clothes and opened a
small place ofhazard. He abandoned drink
ing, and formed the resolution never to

City Liquor Agency.

All persons who may have occasion to use
liquors of any kind for medicinal or mechani-
cal purposes, are informed that the City Agen-
cy is supplied with articles of excellent quail
ty, selected expressly for these purposes. No
liquors will be sold at the Agency except those
purchased of the State Agent, and they can be
relied on as pure and of standard proof, as GER
titled in the certificates of analysis from the
State Assayer. The price list has been revised
and only sufficient profit will be charged to
meet current expenses. We think this mode
of conducting the agency cannot fail to receive
public approval. Per Order

Fashions for October.

There have been few years in which there
has been greater variety of styles from which
to choose in outside garments, as well as in
costumes, and bonnets and hats. Dame FASH
ion seems to be saying to her votaries, "My
children, use your taste this season and see
how becomingly you can attire yourselves.
set but few restrictions on you; for once you
shall please yourselves. You may wear hoops
or 90 without them, you may choose shawls
or cloaks, you may be equally distingae with
a bonnet or hat, and you may make them
so nearly alike as to puzzle novice as to
which it is that adorns your FARMHOUSE.

Cooley says that fancy jewels are still
in great favor. This favor is explained
by the variableness of fashion, which requires
constant changes. Earrings, which have
been worn extremely long, are now prepos-
terously wide. Lockets and necklaces have
taken the place of brooches, and chateIaines
that of watch chains. An almost endless va
riety Of sets, lockets and necklaces of every
new style has been received this week at
