GOLDEN Truths FROM THE WHITE House.
Serene as a Summers day are those we'll
known and popular clothing men, Messrs.
Cohn & Isaacs, No. 16 south street, Virginia
The world wags well with them. People appre
ciate their goods, approve of their prices; and
admire their style of doing business. At the
WHITE House CLOTHING STORE are seen no
broils nor contentious with swindled custo
mers returning moth-eaten and inferior goods
No eyasive prOtestations, that 81 didn't sell it
to you, and 81 didn't recommend il. winding
up with "your eyes were your market, sir.
AT the WHITE HOUSE old customers daily re-
turn, bringing their friends with them, who
also become good customers. OF course, to
some natures, it is very CALLING to see a new
establishment like the WHITE HOUSE open
right under their noses, as it were. and achieve
marked and brilliant success; taking in the
very start a high position in public esteem.
and gaining greater share of popular favor
aud patronage than many houses that have
beed hammering away for years. However.
these old houses should learn to grin and
bear it, Messrs. Cohn II Isaacs do not allude
to these things in any spirit of pride or tri-
umph; they simply state facts for the public
good. They do not doubt that it is gall and
NORWOOD to their neighbors to have custo-
mers of many years standing leave them and
give their patronage to the WHITE House
CLOTHING STORE, but manifestation of temper
is in very bad TASTE and really has bad effect.
Being manifestly untrue it disgusts all hear
ers, and sends customers by scores to the
WHITE House. Such is life. So mote it be.

The Bowdoin College Difficulty.

Brunswick, o. The college band consist
ing Of II members of the three lower classes,
have not been summoned to appear before the
faculty, but, having signed the pledge not to
drill, all but three have voluntarily left town.
Ofthe three that remain, two reside in town.
Members of the Senior class deny the correct
ness of the statement which has been made
that the Seniors disapprove of the action of
the l)wer classes. They say majority of
the class sympathze with the movement, but
as they are net required to drill, they have
10 cause for taking any stand against the col
lege authorities.
The popular feeling in tns vicinity, is, that
while the drill has been unpopular with the
students for a long time, and their petitions
to have it abolished have not been needed, the
stand they have taken places the faculty in a
difficult position, and they will be forced to
maintain the dicipline OF the college at all
hazards. 1t is hoped that the students will
yet take some action which will relieve the
faculty from their embarrassing position, and
enable them to adopt some conciliatory meas.
ure by which harmony may be restored.
