The ministry, which he promptly did
Theirs is no danger on that account
If the authorities at Washington are

II is a common trick OF the New

American goods with a foreign irads
mark. go IS TO catch custoG~rs who
want to buy goods that wers made in
Enslsnd and other foreign lands. So

In Congress the ether day with new

looked inside of the tile and found q
London stamp on it. Then the fan

A report prevails, that the Luthsr-
al preacher at Port Royal and a
handsome young woman Of that
town, have aesociated in z way that is
not becoming their standing o society.
It's hoped the reports msy o and all

pie iaik over affairs that they know
little about. It would be an offense
to report the things that are said
about the Port Royal parties and the
