Hawkes. Wonderful Glasses

As we read Mr.. Hawkes. testimo-
mails from Governors, Senators, Leg
islators, men of science and distin-
guished citizens throughout the
United States, who testify to having
had their eyes improved, and some
restored, by the use of his celebrated
glasses, we realize that a glass that
will reflect such hrilliancy of light as
to enable the wearer to see as in
youth, and to read for hours either
by. candle or other artificial! light,
surely is to he desired by all specta-

A sharper drove into town last
Saturday, procured an auctionecr's
license, and from 4 pheton to which
was attached a spanking pair Of bays,
began selling gold 60 sleeve buttons
at % and so cts, and perhaps other
figures. When through with this he
called the purchasers up and pre-
sented each with sum of money
equal to double the amount of their
purchase. This proved the silver
bait to catch the suckers" and
right lively did they bite. lie there
upon began the sale of gold CO
watch chaius and q so-called watch,
and as each sale was made would
wrap up and lay aside one or two
dollars, which it was thought would
be distributed at the close of the
sales in the same manner rs the half
dollars and dollars had been. When
about from S75 to S125 had been thus
raked in, as persons present csti-
mate, the genial auctioneer quickly
closed his traps, and, without waiting
to put on his coat, drove up to the
Watson House and took in n female
partner who stood waiting for him,
bundle in hand, on the sidewalk :;
then in trice was on the road out
the Harper's Ferry turnpike, leaving
behind him = number Of sadder yet
wiser people.

matter of sincere regret, however,
that, contrary to all precedents, the

without good cause. We have
naught to say against the nominees
