1t is understood that the new volume

'One thing has forced itself to our
attention, during the cpresent canvass

This year ifis different. Every day we
find plenty of roomers, aud almost in
variably they arc married, and have
families"
All this would seem TO point TO tho
fact that there is scarcity of dwell
