Oazlund is a wonderful suburb, and has given birth to many brauches of the retail trade. Hera they have becn born, and here thiey havo died. ‘The last death 18 that of our grave-stone shop, which has departed. The demand for this arti- cle was 80 small that the proprietor Las looked for greenor pastures. Dr. Rutledge, of Tennesseo, put in & good word for the freedmen at tho Oskland M. E. Cliarch last Sonday evening. Altogether it wos quite spicy for a Sabbath evening discourse, and 1us remarks were eagerly devoured by the greedy Osklauders. The *‘usual colloction” will be taken in a few Sabbaths. Two young aud entnxfiu’ininn “Dirt-Agents” have opened an oftica in Liarned's new black, op- posito the Douglas House.
