Prentiss, of Mississippi, gave a Milesian version of the fable of the lion and the beasts to illustrate the adroitness with which Van Buren by a non-committal poiley managed to retain his position In Jackson's cabinet at the time of the explosion that dis- lodged the other members. It will be remem- bered that Van Buren, fn reference to his own presidential policy, declared his purpose to “follow In the footsteps of his illustrious pre- Geeessor.” “Wanst upon a time,” said Prentiss, “the Lion to replenish his larder, made a fire in his den of something that smelt bad intirely, and thin he called all the other bastes to him to give an opinion upon the seint. ‘And how d'ye lke the smell of me parlor to-day?” says the Lion to the Bear.

NS ——————E 4 CARD. For some time past it has been a; parent to tha Urdersigned, that in view of the smail profits at which Dry Goods are being sold, there shoul 1 be a Sifference between Casu and Caepir: and as we are casled upon daily to compete with houses who eo no credit business whatever, it is hardly to be elpected that wecan in ail casea meet their prices, and give credit customers the advantage of them. © confine oursel\ es strictly to the one price sy8- tm, aed mark all our goods in pisin figures. thus inakiny no distinction between erent and Caeprr, and probably in some instances dix age cash buyers. So. after mature consideration. we have determined to meet what we consider one of the Just requirements of trade, by allowing a discount Of Fiv® PeR CENT. for CasH on the day of saie, or upon delivery of the goods, which is the discount generally allowed at wholesale when we pay cash. In making this chanze we desire to express our appreciation of the old and valued custowers with we have held suct: plessant business relations for so many years. and desire their 7 as beretetore, assurin< all that iu establish this sys tem we io not inten? to sell the credit customers at a Livher price, but to the cash purchaser at a lower. The cre cust F can purchase at the recular Fates as heretofore, but the bayer fuvcash wil have a Of sire per cent, from the regular Prices We have decided to initiate this measure vu We think the time has come when the prs me Public expects and should have the advan as we intend, as heretofore. to adhere strictly to the ,we consider the only fair One-price system, which aud legitimate method of transacting business, we can on If effect the object named by allowing a dis- ccuntto al’ who Yay at the time of purchase. We this a permanent and distinguish- ropore t9 make fue feature of our house, and rely upon those weo are familiar with our manner of trausacting busi. eee, and upon the public xenerally, to sastata us 10 this undertaking, believing that the result will be to Our mutual advantace.
