The famous Knights of the Round Table,
 or some of Walter Scotts heroes of mighty
 prowess and enormous digestive power,

 miration could they have beheld the splen- did table cutlery, especially the carvers, at
 John E. Bassett & Co.'s renowned hardware
 emporium, place as familiar to the public
 of New Haven county as Webster's spelling book used to be. It is the depot for cutlery, 10, 600 pocket knives from 10 cents to $50 apiece (see the $50 penknife in the window) skates q ,250 pairs) at reduced prices, all leading kinds, the roller skates, including full lines for ladies, scissors enough to sup ply all New Haven, tool chests in great va riety, fine sets of polished brass, suggestive of roaring wood fire for Christmas eve,
 and weIl-flled Christmas stockings, and all these goods in great variety in this noted hardware store
