THE CASH SYSTEM
NOTICE TO OUR CUSTOMERS
AND THE PUBLIC GEN.
ERALLY.

HAVING been for the past three years engaged
III in business of a CASH AND CREDIT
SYSTEM, we have come to the conclusion that by
establishing an exclusively CASH BUSINESS
and selling goods at the VERY LOWEST PRICES,
will be of greater benefit to both our customers and
ourselves. Therefore,
On and after December LIST, 1873,
we shall mark our goods to the very lowest prices
and GUARANTEE to dispose of no goods ex-
cepting for CASH,
FOR THE FOLLOWING REASONS:
!. A part of all goods sold under the credit
system will be lost to the seller.
2. All goods sold under that system must be
sold at an extra profit to cover those losses.
s. Those who pay their bills, pay for those who
fail to pay, otherwise the merchant must become
bankrupt.
Now, if we give credit, can sell goods at the
smallest percentage that they can be exchanged
for, without adding anything for losses, uncer-
tainty to collectiOns consequently, the man
who buys for cash will get the utmost that his
money will buy and he win help to pay no other
mans debts.
The extra profit necessary to be added under the
credit system, will be seen from the following
statement:
Suppose that we sell goods to the amount of
$780, GOO each year only, credit Of three months
but every twentieth customer actually a small
proportion,) fails to pay, which makes loss of
$4,000, or five per cent. of the whole amount.
Now, you will readily perceive that those who
sell ON credit add five and one-fourth per cent. to
the necessary price of their goods to cover the
loss from bad debts and as there are four times
three months in year, the extra profit to cover
the losses is equal to twenty-One per cent per
annum on your purchases; consequently, you can
borrow money at ten per cent. to buy goods where
no credit is given, and save eleven per cent. per
annum by the operation.
We respectfully ask you to carefully consider
the advantages of the CASH SYSTEM proposed,
and thanking you for past favOrs and soliciting
your future patronage, las we feel assured that
our low prices will be of advantage we remain,
Respectfully yours,

J7ss~Our young and spicy neghbor, the Balti-
more Ere'y Saturday. surpassed itself as well as
all its contemporaries by issuing last week SUI
perb Christmas number of sixteen pages, with a
handsome tinted cover, and filed with choice mat
ter suitable to the season, the whole being beyond
question the most elaborate and successful attempt
yet made in Baltimore. Eeury Saturday has vim
in it sufficient to make it success and it seems to
be sticking to the high road, running in that di-
rection, very persstently.
The Christmas numbers of the American and
Gazette, also issued on Saturday, filled to re-
pletion with choice matter of highly entertain
ing character, while the Weekly SIN came to the
front with its regular issue, enlarged to double its
usual size, and displaying wealth of literary
talent rarely equaled and never surpassed. We
congratulate all three of these most excellent
dalies, and we believe their efforts to please and
entertain fully appreciated by their thousands
of readers.

lszy~A At the opening of the November term of
Court at GAINESVILLE, Ohio, Judge Marsh delivered
to the Bar a short lecture on legal ethics that
would apply with equal pertinency to other locali-
ties. He said that complaints had been made to
him of the conduct of certain members of the Bar
to which he desired to call attention. They were,
in substance, that certain lawyers had collected
money for clients and had failed or delayed to
hand it over to the proper parties; that certain
members had employed justices of the peace
throughout the country to act agents in fur
nshing clients and lawsuits, paying the agents
for such service portion of the fees obtained
from such sources and further, that certain
lawyers were in the habit of writing to per-
sons who had been sued and soliciting their pa
tronage, and asking for the privilege of acting as
their counsel and also writing to persons who
might have a cause action, asking permission
to begin such action, agreeing that there should
be charge if they not successful in the
cause, but if successful there should be division
of the spoils. His Honor denounced these prac
tees as abuses that affected the Court and the
reputation Of the entire Bar, and said that they
must cease. He remarked that lawyers calling
was of the highest and most honorable, and these
dsreputable practices not only compromised the
dignity of the profession, but absolutely degraded
it and would bring it into contempt. He referred
to the Cleveland Bar as having brought charges
against fifteen of its members for like unprofes-
siOnal conduct, and said that he had letterin his
possession written by lawyer, soliciting employ
ment in certain case. and sent to him as evidence
of the practice he was reprobating. Maintenance
and champetry, said Judge Marsh, were crimes
under the common law, and it should now as then,
be the aim Of lawyers to SETTLE rather than ncite,
difficulty and litigation. In short, their action as
lawyers should be so regulated as to subserve the
estinterests of their fellow men. He threw out this
as warning, and desired it to be understood that
the abuse would not be tolerated in Court where
he presided.-Nev Jersey Mirror.

WAvERLY, BALTIC. Co., Dec. 21st, 1875
BALr1Monr. Decemher 25th. Isl,

Messrs. Editors 1t il surprising that meet
ing of a number of Republicans to consider
measures to advance the interest OF the Republi-
can party, has called forth such unlimited abuse,
censure and invective not from Democrats, as
might be supposed, but from who call them
selves Republicans. We in the Second Congress
sonal District have deeply felt the want of a
strong and effective organization of our party in
the last campaign. The same complaint comes
from other parts Of the State. 1t is the dire ne
cessity arising from the condition of the party
which has induced men who cherish the noble
principles of the Republican party to meet, not for
to disorganize, not to strengthen any faction, but
to cOnciliate, re-Organize and soidify the party.
1t is not sought to be done outside and in defiance
of the present organization but within and through
the same, and according to party usage and Gus
tom. 1t is not a movement against any Republi-
can holding an Office, was it meeting of
office-seekers, as virulehiy charged by persons
who misconstrue the motives of thG gentlemen at
tending the meeting, who, holding office, feel
that any change for the better of the party will be
the worse for them. The majority of those pres
ent u0nld not accept Office if rendered to them.
The result of the meeting has been an invitation
to the State Central Committee and to prominent
Republicans of the Stale 70 meet at II IN. on the
Sth of January next, at Rains's Hall, Baltimore,
for cOnsu tatiOn to the best means o. promoting
the interest of the Republican party in Maryland
Now let those VINO profess 10 De deeply attacn
ed to our party and desire its success prove their
sincerity by attending and exertng their influence
for whatever they may deem best for the success
of the party and not by calumny and sneers at
the efforts of men who invite them te meet
| mon ground, widen dissension apdlowef The party
in the esteem Of our citizens
Allow me TO refer to q letter from Republican,
published in Frederick, Nd, Times, which, after
wholesale abuse of al the gentlemen who attend
ed said meeting, writes of oar esteemed fellow-cit-
zen, C. Irving Ditty, "as al ex-Rebei soldier,
whose sanity has been seriously questioned" Dir.
Dirty has been noted for his bold, fearless, open
and violent denuncation of fraud and corruption,
wherever he found it, and those smarting under
his attack not being able to impeach his character,
assail his integrity, honesty principles, say he
is crazy surely we need more of this kind of in
sanity in our public affairs, and we welcome him
in Ake ranks of the Republican party, where he
properly Belongs. L.. IL.

A SINGULAR SECT IN MEXIoo.-Pententes is
the name of singular sect or order existing in
great numbers in New Mexico. The self-inficted
tortures which they undergo during the season of
lent are almost incredible. With no clothing but
a pair of drawers rolled above the knee, they carry
heavy crosses until they sink under them from
exhaustion. As they walk they lash themselves
over the shoulders and back with ecourge made
Of the Spanish bayonet plant or soap weed, which
is full Of pricky points, sharp as needles, until
the blood runs down to their feet. An acquain-
tanee informed me that he had seen a man walk
ing with a cross on each shoulder, weighing 100
pounds each, and heavy log chain fastened to
each foot, while another, with one of these whips
plated to order, scourged him over the back and
shoulders for one hour and this repeated several
times during the day. Bear in mind that these
men live in the United States they are voters and
a part of the acquisition of the war with Mexico.
