POETS CORNER

Once upon an evening dreary,
While | sat me dreaming weary,
In my chamber thinking DER
Things that passed in days of yore
While | nodded, gently rocking,
There came something, knocking
Just outside my chamber door
IT'S the wind, slowly muttered,
Knocking upon my outer door
Only this and nothing more.
Soon there came a louder rapping,
| That broke up my evenings mapping
Mapping as never did before;
Then | called Come in, thou spirit
Make known the object of thy visit
And the rappng on my door"
| Twas my Grocer's clerk, who sought me,
And who blandly besought me,
My monthly bill to look DER
Only this and nothing more
Then took my pencil, weeping,
To figure up how far | was keeping
From the poor house door;
And the items they kept growing
Larger by degrees, and showing
Every month | owed the more
| Then swore by the Gods eternal
And the devils below internal,
To trade hereafter at the Poets Store
Only this and nothing more.
1t is conceded by all that the Poets Store
has done more within the past year to bring
down the prices of the necessities of life
than all the influences that have been
brought forward since the war. They have
succeeded in demonstrating to the public
that a 'penny saved is a penny made, "
and feel that they deserve all the liberal
patronage that has flowed to them from
nearly every family in the city and very
large number from the surrounding coun-
try In preparing for the fall campaign
they beg leave to say that they have per-
fected arrangements for the sale of Fish,
| Oysters and Game Gin addition to well as
sorted stock Of Staple and Fancy Groceries)

have ever been sold in this market. We
