We commend the above suggestion of
our friend Shannon to our citizens gen.
orally. We are quite sure that many Of
them have literary curiosities of one
sort or another, that would be of inter-
est to examine. We will say that any
thing of this nature that may be con-
tributed will be carefully preserved and
returned safely after the session of the
association. Speaking to our editorial
brethren throughout the district, in be-
half of our ladies, we hope that they
will not fail to bring the first article
above enumerated by Bro. Shannon
their wives. Let there be no editorial
"half-sheets" at this meeting, except
those lonely brethren who are yet in the
outer darkness of bachelorhood. Even
these, unless we greatly overrate the at
fractions Of our young ladies, may find
in their visit to our city the means for
ameliorating their forlorn condition.
Again, bring your wives,-and daugh.
tiers.
