a little while it looked lively, and it was

4 SENSIBLE FELLow.-Thc most
sensible travelling merchant we have
ever had the pleasure Of meeting, inter
viewed US hurTiedly one day last week
He was picture dealer; he called with
his box, which he laid upon the table
with smiling countenance and the in
qairy, "Did we want any pictures?:
Our mind not being in frame and see
ing that his wares were in like unhappy
condition we said, "Not any, thank
YOU" Unlike all other commercial
travellers. he gathered his box and
speedily retired without another word.
We confess to complete surprise and
rank him among the few sensible men
of this generation, and even head and
shoulders above them all. His consid-
Grafton for our feelings entities him to
our gratitude, and if ever he comes
this way again we shall buy one Of his
rainbow colored chromos to remember
him by. Oh, that there were more just
like him.

The CEMETERY MUD HoLEs.-Ne
understand that the Commissioners of
Roads authorize the getting of pine
poles near the above named holes, that
the road may be corduroyed. tuntor-
tunatcly happens, however, that there
are no trees Immediately near, and the
consequence is that nothing is done to
stop the gaps. We don't know what to
advise in the premises, unless the holes
be moved 4 few hundred yards where
the pines do grow, or else contract
be given for the planting Of young trees
near the holes. Either plan is full OF
difficulties, but it will be better 70 Try
one or the other rather than 10 nothing.

To THE YoUNG PEoPLE.-Thc most
of Our young Valentine senders are not
aware that it is necessary to placea ore
cent stamp on their little missives. and
in consequence quite number of Val
entines are now in the Office which will
not reach the ones for whom they are
intended. This is an unfortunate fix,
anu we sympathize with the Young peo-
pie deeply. five We're the Postmaster
General we should for one time allow
these pleasant little documents to 60 rs
free rs the air, for they breathe a delight
ful atmosphere of love. We thought
better Of Uncle Sam, and did not think
he could net 50 cruclly rs to stop the
passage Of so small Z thing as EalcA-
tine. Would we We're 4 Postmaster
General or Captain, every little SOU!
should be made happy. We advise tic
children to call for their uns,amre4
documents before they are sent 10 the
Dead Letter Office, at Washington.
We take pleasure III informing the
children that we will furnish them with
stamps for all the Valentines they pur-
chase At the HERALD Book Store this

to tell how many are sold by Mcssrs'

certain, Judging by the packages daily

shipped away. These gentlemen have
exhibited keen perception Of the re-
orirements Of business, and have built
ND . trade of large proportion, much OF
which may be attributed to their uni
form courtesy of manner, anu they
Sesorve all of the success which has u
tended their efforts to please. Another
reason. too, is that they are liberal ad-
