A Town Hall and Market House.

MEssRs. EDITORS Il suppose it is appar-
ent to our people that Town Hall with a
Market House under it, would be not only a
great convenience to our city, besides add to
its beauty and attractions, and that such an
investment could not fail to be good one
The writer has consulted several persons on
the subject, who are, as the writer of this is,
each willing to take five hundred dollars OF
its stock. At least twenty persons could be
obtained who would each take 5000 IN stock,
and So. GOO to $4,000 could be taken in
smaller subscriptions Will you kindly insert
this and give notice of public meeting, to
be held at the City Hotel on next Saturday
evening to consider the question.
