MessTs. Glenn & Cox have begun their
canvass of the city for the new directory.
1t is the intention of these gentlemen to
give the city the best directory it ever
had book which will be complete,
accurate, and perfectly reliable as work
of reference. 1t should be borne in
mind that the correctness of the direc-
tory must depend in great measure
on the information obtained from ci,i-
Zens, and for this reason Mr. Glenn,
who does the collecting OF the names,
asks as special favor that business
men, and the ladies AT their residences,
will be as particular as possible in g,v-
ing information. The intention is 10
give the names OF heads of families and
all adult members in the families, with
their former residence, their occupa-
ton and residence hc,c. By bearing
these points in mind the work can be
expedited and its correctness assured.
The importance of having the name of
every adult resident Of the city in the
book is apparent to every one interested

able comrades from the country to join

/. To preserve and strengthen those
kind and fraternal feelings which bind
together the soldiers, sailors and ma

rebellion, and TO perpetuate the memory
and history of the dead.
2. To assist such former comrades in
arms as need help and protection, and to
extend needful aid to the widows and
orphans of those who have fallen.
3. To maintain true allegiance to the
United States of America, based upon a
permanent respect for, and fidelity to,
the national constitution and laws; TO
discountenance whatever tends TO
weaken loyalty, incites to instruction,
treason or rebellion, or in any manner
impalrs the efficiency or permanency of
our free institutions, and TO encourage
the spread of universal liberty, equal
rights and justice 10 all men.

There is music that The congregation
