al and tasteful scale, and that no bigotry
or excusiyeness will be manifested in

town. Winchester, Frederick, Boons-
boro', Middletown, Baltimore. Phlladel-
phia, Cumberland, and many other
cities, ttowns, and communities. The
object for which the Fair will be hold
en,is a laudable one, and it will go far to
open the hearts aud purses OF our people.
There will be
l. An elegant and sumptuous Dinner
given on Christmas Day, at fixed
price, to which all can come and par
take, and make merry on st. Nicholas
Day-the Birth Day of RedeemnS
Saviour. Now we want to see some
POO Or SOC. persons dine here on that
day, at 80 cents for each Dinner-whlch
will be liberal sum. Dinners and sup
pers will be furnished each day and
night also, during the two weeks.

6. There will be something exhibited
L 30 ,,,o1yn Shnnhor1S
town memorable in all time to come
where for week at least all differences
of creeds and sects will be dropped
where harmony, union end Cancellation
can be exemplifed, and the largest char
tiles of our nature happily cultivated.
7. When it is remembered that mere
difference of opinion is not difference
of prineiple-when it is remembered
that Martin Luther himself was once a
Roman Catholic and an Augustin Monk,
and that his father aid mother were
both inferred i'll a Catholic Cemetery
when it is remembered that Luther, one
of the Apostles of the Reformation, saw
fit to change his old Religion, andfo
a church which bears his name, when
he was not killed or prosecuted, but
died natural death-we think that
both Catholics and Protestants can find
food for reflection i'll the circumstance,
and extinguish any feeling of luminosity,
or bigotry which may Turk in their bo-
SONS; and freely patronize a Festival
which is to enlarge the thoughts, the
charities, the good feeling and the ge-
NAL impulses of our race.
s. The Ladies who have charge of
the Fair are determined to make this
occasion browning glory of success.
Then contribute your aid freely, and
look to Heaven for your reward.
sS To PRINTERS AND PUBLISHERS
Every country and city publishers knows
that without good roller his paper will
not print clear and readable, no matter
how good his press, paper or ink may
be. We therefore recommend to the
publishers of the country the "American
Roller Gum" manufactured by Mr..
VIM. Godfrey, corner st. Paul Street
and Bank Lane, Baltimore. We are
now working a roller which he Cast for
lis. a short time since, which we consid-
er the best we have ever used during
our thirty years Of experience in the
printing business. He will cast rollers
or ship the gum to any address. a fine
smooth face, constant elasticity, great
durability, and no shrinkage, are the
qualities which recommend the ''Ameri-
can Roller Gum" to all experienced
pressmen. 1t works all kinds Of inks
with equal facility, is Of nearly the same
consistency at all seasons, and therefore
better fitted for general uH than any
other Roller material. Melts easily,and
pours thin, yet makes very tough and
reliable Eoller. 1t Is easily prepared
and easily kept in order, does not crack
nor lo,e its face. The use of any paten-
ted combination Of materials is utterly
disclaimed. The manufacturer long
experience in Roller-making, and the
very liberal patronage of the presSm'n
throughout the country, is the best lei
erence for the American Roller Gum
