Hands Discharged Hands still continue to be
discharged from our shops. The proprietor of
one of our most extensive workshops whom
| we are informed has discharged his whole force.
said that It gave him great Ipain to do so, but
he could do'no business that would pay him, so
as to justify his continuing them In employ
| ment. We are also Informed that one Of our
| most extensive morocco establishments have
decided to pay their men only half their wages,
and That one of our great workshops have paid
their men entirely In checks contrary TO their
| usual custom. However new checks were
equally as current, and as good as money. The
panic however has reached its worst things
will regulate themselves and times will get bet
ter.

implements at a low rate should take the op-
portunity thus presented Of doing So
Loan associations. -Some have suggested
that the Loan Associations should stop the pay
ment OF dues for month or So So many men
being out of employment, it Is impossible for
them to meet their monthly payment In these
| institutions. AT any rate there should be q
suspension Of the rule imposing monthly fine
OF ten per cent. on the failure Of payment, and
adopt another fixing the penalty at the rate of
only ten or twelve per cent. per annum.

Esq, will be sold at public sale by the Execu :
tors, on the 30th inst. The farm is one of the
| pest In that section OF our country, and in the
hands OF an energetic man could not fall to
prove profitable. There are over thirty acres
| OF fine timber, and by good management, II
could be made to pay nearly one half the amount
OF the purchase money In very few years.
The fact that the widows dover, amounting to
soooo' may remain on the property number Of
years, may also be quoted as all inducement to
purchasers, as In these times the lessening OF
the payments Is very material consideration
to q large number Of persons wishing to pur-
chase real estate. For particulars see adver-
| tisement.
