All of which the undersigned will sell ten
per cent. lower, for cash, than any
man who does a credit business.

The best of every thing we keep.
And what appears SO funny,
Wen sell you goods so very cheap,
Twill save you lots ofmoney.
Just to make noise and show,
Some men will sell on credit;
But pay day rolls around, you know,
And then you're sure to dread it.
So we invite you, every one,
Gentlemen and ladies,
Come pay the cash, and thereby shun
Those dreadful, ugly pay-days.
Our goods are not mixed up with trash,
But the very incest;
Purchased very low for cash
Bought at panic prices.
We have line of calico
That beats the Dolly Warden;
And if you do not find it so,
Then we will ask your pardon.
Travel round the Grecian bend,
From New York on to Naples;
You cannot find, you may depend,
A better line of staples.
We aim to treat our customers right,
For that is just our notion;
Feel greatfuI for the smallest mite,
And big ones in proportion.
So we invite you, one and all;
Politeness-now what is it?
We'n charge you nothing for the call,
And thank you for the visit.
Be sure we're not deceiving You,
For sure we do not fiatter;
And all we say you'll find is true,
And that is what's the matter.

Mr. EDWARD s. STOKES is profoundly dis
satisfied with the verdict recently given in hi
case, and attributes It to the strong home
love Of the jurors. They were so ar yious to
return to the .osoms of their respective tami
lies, be saws, that they agreed upon com
promise verdict in preference to being locked
up all night. The community very generally
accept the view of the distinguished assassin
that it was a compromise verdict, -comprom
ing the jury which gave it the statue which
sanctioned it, and the bad state of public
opinion which rendered it possible. Stokes is
fast losing what sympathy he had. His
courage duri1 his two years Incarceration
caused no little admir-. tien. But when he be-
gins to whine that he don't know what lie
has done that be should be SO prosecuted al
feeling Of pity is merged in contempt.
