there be any trade wanting in our
great city, and like first class pick
pocket / keep in touch with the peo-
pie. | do not find in any quarter of the
town an Onetrocritic or in plain Eng
lish an interpreter of dreams. We
have several fortune tellers, and Mac,
though president of the board of trade
and head of the stock market, is quite
an astrologer, and has upon e1traor-
binary occasions supernatural revela-
tons in his late speculations, but he
does not interpret dreams, while his
partner. like John Wesley, famous as
the founder of Methodism, is very re-
firing in the company of ladies and
never dreams. and from his regularity
and strict methods of living make it
impossible for the poultry dealer to
associate with the other memb ers on
all occasions, but the poultry dealer
is one of those old fashion men of wit
and pleasure of the town and often
drops fowl" tip to the grain buyer
as to his line of duty in the treatment
OF horses, while the grain buyer, by
the way, is one of those good people
who are very much puzzled in this
particular and dreams whole year
together without being any wiser for
it, in fact his waking thoughts are
wholly employed on his sleep ones.
In short, from the number of single
dreamers in the town we are greatly
in need of some one of either sex who
is qualified to interpret dreams.

Chas. Roberts OF the firm of Mi

looking over this territory last Fri
day. He ought to come oftener as

What wonder Jean is a proud and
