THEPAsr.-The past prices OF gods have
nothing To do with those Of the present,

let others charge what they please, we
know from pricing their goods, that our
nearest neighbor-, the firm Of Hayden

their purchases.

DoS'r DELAY.-By this We mean that
You should not delay buying now what you
may want 10 the way Of clothing, dress

you any goods in their store for much les
than you ever paid for them in any year

out their Winter goods.
THE SHERiFFALrY We DO hope that
there will be no hitch in the appointment
and swearing in Of a good man for Sheriff.
The condition OF affairs in this county, de-
nands that there should be no vacancy in
this important ofIice-for should there be,
the despeadoes and law-breakers will gath
er strength and confidence that may be
difficult TO overcome. Our rich men
should bear in mind that their dearest in
teres,s are at stake, and club together on
the bond Of some good man, who IL too
modest TO ask their assistance.
SEAu-AsSuAL SErTLENESrs.--It has
become a custom here among our mer-
chants 10 allow accounts TO run six months
with the hope and expectation that on the
lat Of January and July, the makers will
come forward and settle. We interviewed
the merchants yesterday, and while several
expressed themselves satisfied with the
amount Of cash coming ir, the majority
informed Us that settlements were very
slow II every man will do his best to-
wards paying his accounts, times will
greatly improve, and We trust that all will
try the experiment just for once
