Will be lost to our city, for cyen-more.

And workmen are coming at an early day
To change this building, once tho't grand,
But first must they tearit half away.
No longer will that old store resound
With the hurried tread of many feet,
All knowing there was always found
Tho best of goods, and always cheap.
Yet a few days remain, we're glad to state
For those who have not goods yet bet
TO hasten there before too late,
And buy for a little ali they want.
They'r compelled to scll-low for cash,
To close their stock before they move,
And everything offer, from silk to crash
AT prices that will br-r-r-r-r-

SuPEHvIsoRs.--Wc publish on the sec
ond page the proceedings of the June
session Of orr county legislature, which
convened on Monday and adjourned
Wednesday. 1t will be seen that the
Board have made an order submitting to
the vote of the people at the November
election the question Of an increase Of its
membership to seven. Our own opinion
at the time the last change was made in
the system of county government, was
that the Board should be more reprcscn-
tativc in its character than as now con-
stitutcd, and VIC now think that five or
seven members elected. from districts
would be preferable. But we must con-
fcss that the "rulc of three" has on the
whole worked remarkably well. and It is
by no means certain that the people will
consent to change it. We invite discus
sion of the subject through the. columns
of the BULLETIN.
