RoBERT. BLOOMFIELD, THE NoET.-Many benevolent prsons who attended the sale of Bloomfield's goods, and saw the disWereon of the small tokens of esteem snd other trifling presents of which the little property left by this worthy man consisted, have blameed the friends of is family for not having ttied a subscription for their relief, witih might have prevented a sacrifice so painful to theit feelings.

The friends of the family.never doubted that public benevolonce and liberality would rescue, the family of one of the brightest ornaments of our day from the endurance of want and misery in addition to the sufierings they have already undergone.
