Many complaints are made to us
by our subscribers of not getting
their papers regularly. Some are
getting them once in two weeks,
while others do not get them at all.
We would inform all that we mail
our papers regularly every Wednes'
day afternoon at the Post Office in
this place, and pay the postage on
them. 1t seems strange that papers
cannot get to an adjoining Office UNI
der two weeks. We respectfully ask
Mr.. Gilmore to help us ferret out the
difficulty. Ifnot in his Office, we do
not want to blame him.

FrRE.- Saturday afternoon, about
4 o'clock, the Marble Shop, corner Of
Third and Main streets, owned by
Mr.. Levi Hayes, was discovered to be
on fire. 1t caught from the stove
pipe, which runs up through the
roof, The alarm was given and the
citizens soon responded with buckets
of water, and BY judicious applica-
ton of the same, The FIRE was soon
put out. Mr.. Hoy, of this office, was
the first upon the roof and remained
there until he had completely sub
ducd the flame. Talk of your paid
fire departments and your steam FIRE
engines, as much as you please, but
our "iirc brigade" withtheir buckets,
beat them all. No fire ever gots the
upper hand of them.
The commodious and conveniently
arranged Grocery and Provision Store
owned by Mr.. James II. Holloway,
opposite Court House, is one of the
finest establishments of the kind in
the city, and we doubt if its equal
can be found in Point Pleasant. A
full and fresh stool, of goods in that
line is always to be found here; and
are sold at the lowest living prices,
and square weight and measuro.-
Give him call and lay in your win
Ter supply.
Asnicc lot ofChristmas candies, as
are to be seen in town, will be found
at the New York Store, Call and
see them. Lieut.. Hill will take
pleasure in waiting upon you; and if
candies are not what you want, he
will sell you any kind of dry goods,
boots, shoes, hats, caps, OF any kind
Of notions, from a chair pin" up.
