speak of this last another time"

Here is house that laps the better days of
the Republic and these days of trial, which
demand alike our fortitude and our sagacity
to survive. It is agreeable to commune
with man who, like our friend Bossieux,
was acquainted with those better times. In
all the branches of his business his stock:
Is varied and his prices low. He can COM
pete with the candy and fruit-stores Of the
great cities successfully, and country mer-
chants ought never to pass through Rich
mond without giving him call.
For seasonable supplies his establishment
lacks nothing in the line Of candies, fruits,
and confts. 1t is complete, not forgetting
Atmore's mince-meat." Tobaccos, ci-
gars, and fireworks are in wholesale SUI
perabundance. There are fireworks at
Bossieux's to fire up Christmas enough for
the whole State. To Bossieux's, boys, and
arm yourselves for the part you must per-
form. Richmond expects every man Of
boy to do his duty.
Seriously-for we can be so frequently
BossieuX's stock is one creditable to Rich
mond, and is worthy Of "the attention Of
the trade.''
SYCLE BROTHERS, No. 429 Broad street.
This is store that would do credit to any
city. Observe their expansive iteration
and reiteration of their ample supplies Of
seasonable goods and their low prices.
People can dress finely at such moderate
cost Mt Sycle Brothers that we are appre-
hensive that they will get too proud. We
enjoin it upon them not to overdo the thing.
Look at the cloaks. the furs, the shawls,
the jackets, &C., and the cassimeres, cloths,
fannels, &C., and the alpacas, cachemires,
and fine dresses for the ladies'; and bonn
bazines, Grape cloth, mourning goods,
Australian and empress cloths, and fancy
boxes, carpets, blankets, and last but not
least-bustles "Where did you come
from? Shake the agony down." Bustles
have had their day, it has been thought
but Sycles knows best, and whatever the
ladies say is ali right.
We were about to play upon Sycles, but
we dread repetition, and being afraid that
we have done so before we refrain. In
seeking for rich products in ripe fields come
on with your reap-hook "-Sycles offers
the rich harvest of lovely and useful things.
The seasonable supplies he spreads before
the public are ineXhaustible.
PIzz1NI, S07 Broad street.-Here is the
popular place for boyhood, adolescence, and
advanced life. Each age will find Pizzini's
stock amply supplied with things suited to
their fancies. 1t is treat indeed to see the
boys and girls selecting what they want Of
good things at Pizzini's, which are in such
variety as to perplex their little heads. Ii
an old bachelor took half-doZen boys and
girls into Pizzini's and gave them liberty tc
buy Just what they wanted, wouldn't they
make the old fellow sweat? 2 The little
wretches would buy Pizzini out. Dear lit,
tie children, it is impossible that any such
privilege will be accorded to them. A
dozen of them with a carte blanche in the
candy, sugar, and contit line would exhaust
every national bank in the city.
Pizzini is not to be subjected to any such
exhaustion. His fine stock will triumph
over any probable demand. Yet people
have q wonderful habit of crossing hi:

for spices and all sorts OF delicious ant

remarkable scene occurred. Moody read a
long and elegantly-composed letter from
one who announced ut the opening that she
was prostitute. The letter expostulated
with the evangelist for not speaking some
good word for lost women while devoting
