Merchants advertise in various
ways, such as "Selling Out at

ing to gull the public that they
possess peculiar advantages by
which they are enabled to sell
cheaper than their competitors, at
the same time selling at a good
profit. They perpetuate a fraud
on a generous public by offeringa
lower grade of goods, which are
palmed off as good and sold as

The Rev. David Wills, the former pas
tor of the church at Ringoes, n. j., and
who has recently taken charge of the
Spring Garden Presbyterian Church of
this city, received a very hearty welcome
by the few remaining members. Only
short lime ago this was one OF tho most
Influential and powerful churches IN the
city; but the pastor, Rev. Mangasarian,
changed his religious views, left the
church and carried his immense congrega-
ton with him. There are only one hum
bred and seventy-fiy members remaining;
nevertheless we wish our Ringoes pastor,
Mr.. Wills, success.
The liquor dealers are arraye1 against
Gen. Beaver, for Governor. This is one
good reason why Pennsylvania Repnbl-
cans should demand his nomination and
election.
We were recently reading journal
published In the interest of liquor dealers
ofithis state, and VIC were forcibly inn
pressed as to the serious apprehensions
entertained by this Journal as TO the
growth Of temperance sentiment through
out the land. 1t warned the dealers to
thoroughly organize and prepare for the
storm as it gradually grew terrific One
writer said II this is not done our business
will be crushed The paper also advised
the encouragement of the st. John move
ment and organizations of sim liar charac-
ter. A correspondent from another state
very plainly insinuated that it was policy
to always endeavor to split the Republi-
can ranks, SO that the Democrats could
be victorious; which likewise meant in
words, unmistakable victory for the IL
quor dealers ASA
Philadelphia is as far from Now York,

there are merchants who financially col
