A Second-HGnd Food Shop.


 A brown-bearded German on the box of 8 big covered wagon, heavily loaded, drove slowly through the deep snow and mud in Willett street last night, and pulled up in front of plain, old-fashioned little house above Delancey street. The children in that neighborhood are very numerous, and very many of them were at play on the sidewalks as the plain, unlettered wagon lurched and numbered over the uneven roadway. They shouted to one another. ' Here's the wagon, CerdeIia, 2 said one, 'tRun, Mary Ann, and tell your mother" :" and " Hero he is Here he is !" shouted others. The little ones scat, tered in all directions. The street, from being noisy, became quiet. This neighborhood is near the East river at the point where the city is widest. Two-thirds of the houses are little old fashioned brick dwellings. Scattered among these relics of the time when each family had house to itself are the tall, bare tenements that, after all, afford better ac- commodations for families crowded under one roof than do the small houses.
 A boy came out of the little brick house at which the wagon had halted, and took the horse from between the shafts. The German lifted out of the back of the vehicle heavy barrels and big cylindrical tins. When the boy came back he assisted the man in lifting down two packing boxes and some extra heavy barrels Ali these were carried into the basement. Then the children reappeaFed,

We have time and space to give only few random quotations, showing what we are do- ing to make things go this month. Most of the reductions are necessary In order to force ont the balance of our stock. Others are not necessary, but are made to enliven the sale, to please our customers and to bring In the cash.
 Examples A 42 inch bleached Pillowcas- ing fer Sc yard, 10 bleached shooting Of one of the best makes for 25c yard. All cotton goods at correspondingly low figures. Calicoes 1-2c, full standards 5c. wide cam- brics 12 1-2c makes for 1Oo. Seersuckers that were 14c for 12 Indigo yard wide fine heavy Cambrics, regular 25c goods for 12 1-2. (This last is an immense bargain). Cleaks and Sacques reduced very heavily, goods must be seen that the prices may be appre- ciated. Ten and fifteen per cent. discount on Colored Dress Goods. Fine French Wool en Stockings for children, former prices soc to $1, all put into three lots at 25c, 35c and 5Oc Six and eight button length Mousque- taire Kid Gloves all colors and sizes 92c and hook Kid Gloves (the improved hook) at 88c and 98c. Lined Mousqnetaire Kid Gloves that were $2 % only $1 50 now. An excellent 3-button Kid Glove for 45c Cash mere and feeced Lisle Jersey Gloves 200 25c, 8Sc and 4Oc, all goods that were much higher. Our Black Silks have been so very cheap lately that it is not really necessary to give any discount on them, but we will let out during this month ''our own" special brand of American Silk (the one we have had such success with for four years) as follows the $2 % grade for $1 90 the $1.75 for $1.65, the $1.5O for $1 40, and the $1.25 for SLIP. On the Saccarappa Black Silks we shall not change the prices, but till 31st January vii take per cent. of each sale. These may

Henry ViIIard's Unselfishnesss


 It is reported that Willard has not only lost three or four millions himself, but that he has handed over to other losers the S300,o00 that he gave year ago to his wife. daughter of William Lloyd Garrison. I hope this is not true. man should not pay so dearly ss that for miscaIculation.
 There's only one thing-a recollection that makes me think the report may be true. In the autumn of 1862 he came into the army of the Potomac as 8 correspondent. I was writing letters to the New York Tribune His horse was better one than mine and he always kept ahead-excepting, perhaps, on retreat One night when the army was bsing transferred from the Rapidan over to Fred ericksburg and Willard and l were trying to keep along with 1t we found ourselves good way from any eligible house and compelled to camp, soldier fashion, on the ground. We picketed our horses, then brought dozen nice, soft three-cornered rails from worm fence near by, laid them gracefully side by side in the wet grass as close together as pos sibIe. and went to bed. As 1t was cold we put our blankets together and laid them over us. and, as there were no mosquitoes we soe along fairly we'll The only disturo roanoe was made by Willard.

JANUARY SALE.

look small reductions on silks perhaps, con- pared with what one often sees advertised but they have the advantage of being aENU- HE reductions on goods already the cheapest in the market. During this sale also our en- tire line of $1 co Colored Silks (without x- ception) will be sold at 800. Many special reductions will also be made, which we can not enumerate here. Our entire stock of Knit Goods has been marked down. A lot of Hoods, all kinds of odds and ends at 25c are a bargain. Jackets, Leggins, &c., all reduced.
 Turkey Red Damask 60 inches wide at 42c. The best value we ever offered in Towels at 12 1-2 and 25c. These latter are especially deserving of notiSe. Scotch Table Napery at prices that none can beat For Scotch Lln- ems it is surely best to go to Scotch firms store We are nearly cleaned out of Blank cts but have made some almost absurd prices on some of the small remainders. and we have two cases coming in some time this week that will be offered at prices that will aston ish the most experienced buyers. All our Mems Winter Underwear is reduced, all our Scarfs are cheaper. We have some marvel' ous bargains to give in broken lots of Half Hose.
 We have no space for further enumera- ton, but would only say in conclusion that if you see any apparently low price quoted on anything elsewhere, come and see what we are selling it for before you buy.
 We don't mean to carry over any winte goods. It is always remarked of our store how fresh everything always looks. The se- cret of that is THAT WE KNOW HOW TO CLOSE OUT.

Sargent has done excellent service as g member of the Beard of Public Works It is to be regretted that he did not feel like remaining a member of the board, though it is not surprising, for the position is laborious and unprofitable, save in the consciousness of duty done.
