Blankets are certainly cheaper

winter or where goods were
ordered and laid in before the

When the great auction sale
of the manufacturers took place
in New York we were sold

Six per cent. We laid in at that
sale 100 cases, containing 5000
pairs of Blankets, embracing
every grade, size and price. A
few cases have been coming in
day by day and we could not
advertise them because they
were sold off as fast as cases
opened. Now this tu!l lot and
other lots are in and we notify
the people of our prices to,
make a satisfactory Blanket

THE New York Sun, the leading Demo-
critic paper in the country, is very compli-
mentary to President Arthur's message. 1t
says;
Zone of the results of Mr.. Arthur's admin
~istration of public affairs during the past
twenty-seven months is highly creditable to
him. There has been a steadily growing
confidence both in the soundness of his
judgment and in the sincerity of his desire
to serve the best interests of the country.
That is why his first December message to
Congress was awaited with curious interest,
his second with respectful attention, and his
third with the very general conviction be-
forehand that it would be clear in its terms,
wise in it's recommendations and patriotic
in its inspiring motives.
80 it is. The document sent to Congress
yesterday afternoon contains much evidence
that the President thinks for himself. His
opinions and recommendations on i'm
portant questions of policy are often wholly
different from those which he transmits in
the reports of his cabinet advisers. He con-
veys from the departments without ex-
.pressed or implied approval some schemes
with which we should be sorry to find him
in agreement. His assent to measures which
meet his own views is sufficiently distinct;
his silence in regard to other measures pro-
posed by the members of his cabinet, so far
from meaning consent, is quite as eloquent
as the most energetic phrase of disapproval."

send your son back to you Free"
What we should like to know is
whether the counsel believe their defense to
be true, and that is that young Mutt
has an uncomfortable desire to take life,
which has long been manifested; for if they
do, then we should like to understand the
honesty of Mr.. Voorheesi in preparing to send
this young man back to his home in three
weeks'free! If the defense was an uncontroll-
able desire to kill Dukes, there would be no
difficulty, and that defense would be a very
proper one both for the jury and the coun-

THE infamous S~turlata, who murdered her
paramour in Chicago, and over whom some
of the good ladies of that city made infinite
TODD, is as brazen and ~impudent as most
women of her class. In conversation with a
reporter she made ingenious confession, as
follows:
'Of course, I protested to be religious when
in prison, and promised to lead a reformed
life when 1 got out. The Christian ladies
made me promise to go to q home which they
had provided for me when my time was up,
but 1 would not live with such a class of hyp-
ocrites as l found these women to be-"
There may be little comfort in such a cold
blooded admission as this, but there should
be a wholesome lesson to those who wasted
sympathy on the ungrateful thing that might
have been employed to some good on less
hardened creatures.
