BLAIR CoUNTY.-Decoratio day was
properly observed in Tyrone. An address
was delivered by D. J. Neff, Esq, suitable
to the occasion. - Tyrone is to have a
hose company. They have received 1854
feet of hose. -. At Hollidaysburg, last
week, little daughter Of Col. McNlurtrie
was knocked down in the street, by pas
sing carriage, and considerably bruised. .
Decoration day was observed in Altoona,
though it appears to have been rather un-
satisfactory. =. Two parties, named re-
spectivey, Perry g. Trout and James Glas'
gov, both residing near Bells Mills, on Sat
urday, May 28th, got into fuss about g
fence, when Glasgow struck Trout on the
head with stone, inficting very serious
though not fatal injuries.

New Orleans Republican. [volume] (New Orleans, La) 1867-1878, 1871-08-29

against the efforts Of these rivals to en-
tice away portion of the trade that
comes to this city from Arkansas and the
upper and middle portions of Louisiana
and Texas, they must not forget that ST.
Louis and other Western cities are ac-
tually competing for this trade. Our
merchants have got to meet these COM
petitors in true business way, and con-
vince them that competition can be made
to assist the life Of trade in city that is
the natural centre of commerce for the
Mississippi valley and Europe. The
natural advantages of this city,
combined with good management
'on the part of its rulers and business
men, must make it market for foreign
and domestic products not inferior to
New York. While we admire the-energy
and enterprise of the merchants of ST.
Louis in trying to make trade, we DO not
believe they can permanently secnfe the
smallest portion Of trade that properly
belongs to ''point affcrding the best
market. New Orleans is eminently one
OF these points on this continent, and it
is ridiculous TO suppose that city To-
Gated hundreds of miles in the interior
country-far from the ocean-ean ever
successfully compete with it as CONNER
cial city. st. Louis may ''drum" up
little Of the trade, for the time being,
that properly belongs to New Orleans, but
with very little exertion on the part of
our merchants this trade can be made to
gravitate to the point that in reality
affords the best market.

SOUTHERN TRADE,

The growing importance Of Southern
trade is fast attracting the attention of
rival cities to New Orleans. This fact is
rather complimentary to this section of a
great country than otherwise, and while
it should not excite the enmity of those
directly interested in the trade and con.
tinued superiority of the chief city Of the
South and Southwest, it should spur the
merchants of New Orleans to renewed eff
forts to cherish and maintain the growth
Of trade here. New Orleans has the loca-
ton to make it one Of the great centres of
trade, not only upon this continent, but
between the Old and New Worlds. It has
long been known as one of the principal
points Of trade between the Eastern and
Western hemispheres, and as long as the
Southern and Western States of the
American Union continue to grow in
trade and population, just SO long will
New Orleans continue to improve in all
the attributes Of chief city. Nature has
given it immense ocean and river advan-
tages over cities not similarly situated,
and when its railroad connections are
completed, leading into Texas and other
points OF Importance, it will have nothing
to fear in the way of rivalry if its mer-
chants and rulers will observe a wise
course.
Ihe 'REPuBL1cAN has already, by ex-
tracts taken from st. Louis and other
papers, and by editorial remarks, at
tempted to call the attention Of our bust
ness men to the efforts that are being |
made to divert from New Orleans a nor. |
ton of its trade. st. Louis, Cincinnati
Louisville, and even Chicago, may be
said to be making pretensions that way.
While cur merchants may feel secure

A TESTIMONIAL.

NEW ORLEANS, June %, 1871.
J. H. GARDNER, Agent Grover Baker Sewing
Machine Company, No. 1872 Canal street, New
Orleans:
SIR-We are much in want of two of your FAMILY
SEWING MACHINES, and propose to give you in
exchange fer them, one EACH Singer and Wheeler
& Wilson. If you accept our offer it will take from
us the last Of five of the other patterns Of
machines that we have disposed of to give place
to yours.
We have had much experience with several of
the leading Sewing Machines, and feel that we can
say, without injustice to any one, that the
ELASTIC STITCH MACHINE
Of your Company's make is far superior to
any that We have used. Its simplicity,
small effort required to operate and the great
strength and elasticity of its seam, are qualities
we have never found equaled in any other. Since
the introduction of your Sewing Machine into our
Asylum, it has always been the favorite with our
children, and often source of much contention
among them, as to who should have the privilege
of its use.
During the past two years We have had five of
your Sewing Machines in constant use, and large
quantities of work of every description for fami-
lies has been done on them. We have never had
any complaint from those for whom the work has
hut Ia
the beauty and perfection of the machine stitching
We most earnestly hope that you will accept our
to exchange, and favor us by sending
your machines at the earliest opportunity.

Marrying and Unmarrying.
From the New York Herald.l


A striking instance of peculiarly prim-
itive ideas upon the subject of matrimony
was brought to light on Thursday in the
Superior Court. A young couple, re-
Gently married, thought it just as easy to
get unmarried. Like asking the minis
ter to marry them, they thought AL they
had to do was to ask judge to unmarry
them, and the work was to be as quickly
done. Introducing themselves to the
Court, which they did openly, they asked
to be divorced. Upon the judge asking
on what grounds they sought divorce,
their reply was that it was by mutual
consent =" this and nothing more"
Neither had charges to make against the
other. The green-eyed monster had not
disturbed the serenity of their young
welded lives. Peccadilloes there were
none. Neglect, harshness, cruelty
there were none Of these. Incompati-
bility Of temper, that derRier resort of
divorce applicants, had not ruffied the
smooth waters Of their matrimonial ex-
istence. All fhe judge could do, Of
course-and this he did-was to dis
course to them briefly upon the nature
OF marriage as a civil contract, as de-
fined in the law; upon its solemnity, as
set forth in the pages of Holy Writ, and
upon the inutility of their application by
telling them he could do nothing for
them.
