of Trade organized in this city with a
flourish of trumpets, five dollar ad-
mission fee and formidable array of

ly. Our very heads swan with the
glittering prospect. But alas! alas! 4!

genuine proposition for a wooden mill
yet made, before said B. of 7. AT the
first meeting there were five members
present and at the second six! o what
a tumble was there, my countrymen!
