An Open Letter to the People.

No words that we can command will
convey our qualification at the response of
the best people of city and country, in
support of our new effort to supply Dry
Goods at uniformly low prices Our ex
pectations have been more than realized
The sales have been enormous, and the
best part of it is, the people seem well
pleased from the strong assurances given
us of their appreciation of the conveniences
of the House, in supplying so many differ
emit kinds of reliable goods at such moder-
ate prices. If such a large business is
done at the outstart, when no human being
could ensure perfect organization, what
will be the result when we have had little
longer experience, and can complete the
improvements already in progress? We
have frankly to say that the unexpec-
ted magnitude Of the business and the
employment of SO many new hands, and
the unavoidable haste in preparing for
the season, have made it difficult to reach
the higher measure of achievement which
we are aiming for. But the people see so
many advantages in dealing at the Grand
Depot, and are SO quick to perceive the
constant and vigorous growth of good
plans, and are so patient where they know
that there is disposition to serve them,
that we are working on with unbounded
enthusiasm and unfaltering purpose, be-
lieving that they will have no reason not to
be proud Of the "Grand Depot" Dry
Goods house.
There are in circulation great many re-
ports against us, emanating from interested
parties and from newspapers with which
we do not advertise; but the people are
wise enough to understand these things.
Nothing gives us more pleasure than to
have the people go through our Establish
ment and examine into it's workings, talk
with our clerks on any subject, and by
personal inquiry find out precisely how we
conduct our business; and we are quite
willing that the people in our employ who
live with us every day, should speak of
the inside workings of the House We
have no secrets from the public, and we are

EAST CORINTH.
Mr.. Charles Dickey has recently pur.
chased the piece of land next to his
blacksmith shop Of Hlas Grow; on
which land not many years ago. Grow
had nice barn destroyed by fire and
three valuable horses. besides much 9th.
er valuable property. On that little
piece Of land he has made and lost a
good deal Of money, and it must have
been like parting with an old friend to
have sold it. Mr.. Dickey is improving
the lot by ditching the wet portions of Il
and by setting out maple trees. We un
derstand that by and by, he intends to
put up a dwelling house on the lot, which
will be an improvement to our village.

by the way, Uncle Sam said pretty
good thing the othey day, when he heard
that the Fulton boys had put ready made
collins in this village for sale. Says he,
"Now you look at what l tell you, those
Fulton boys are so lucky in everything
that they so into in this world, that folks
have got to die great deal faster about
here than they ever have before, just to
give those fellows chance to sell those
collins" We are all feeling sorry that
they are so lucky.
Many of our good people were very
much surprised, besides being somewhat
indignant last sabbath to see one of our
first men in our village, with his trotting
horse, and in his trotting gig, trying his
speed with another horse driven by two
young fellows through our main street,
back and forth. which fellows. no doubt
felt highly delighted to see how much
a good man can make fool of himself
on the sabbath day. If that good man
could have heard the remarks of the out
side sinners, we hardly think he would
make our streets, usually so quiet on the
sabbath day, a race track.
