UitiiliL Merritt, thenewly-appointed collector at New York, nays if a republi can State convention is to ba held this fsil it will be the first time on record that the New York custom-house will be absent, and this, he thinks, will be a sub stantial proof of civil service reform which .will do much to strengthen the petty in that State.

It is simply I his: The city is situated upon lime rock and densely built. The rock and tho bricks got heated and make the air hot. Now, in dry air the perspira tion from the skin will evaporato. But there the air is continually moist, and therefore dors not carry off tho surplus heat which comen as perspiration from tho bcily. Decides hot damp air is very unhealthy to lircnthc. 'Then, again, St. Lonis ia situated where there is very little wind to carry away this fatal atmosphere. Tub Pekin Stunts Zeilung publishes threo interesting decrees of the Kmprees- regent of China. The lint announces that tile royal troops have again reduced the city of Nnn-loto oubjection, and that 1,100 of its inhabitants have been l-ehea. •led. "Thin news,” says the decree, "will came great pleasure to the rccently-de* cessed emperor, who now roigna in hea ven." The second decree directs tba* thank oDsrings be eaoriGcod to liia depar ted majesty, and the third comminaiona Prince Li to communicate tho pleasing intelligence ti him. The prince will therefore have to write a report of the victory and subsequent events upon yel low silk, and burn it, with appropriate forms, ever the imperial grave. This will effect the desired connection eritb the other world. Cheating the Indians. The allegation bss been repeatedly made, and ia not yet, so far aa we havoseen, denied, that the Indian wars of the last two years are wholly dus to a reckless and almost universal violation of treaty stipulations on tho pait of Unit- od States a gen's charged with their exe cution. In a word, tbs Indians have bsen cither swindled ont of the supplies of all kinds promised them, or co activi ty baa been shown to forward them in time, so as to prevent severe suffering from destitution. It is charged that the wbcls Indian service is rotten with fund P> .rnuhtQJFHtHiKennpr abu„‘, alike of lie friendly and of f ^•a^flm^^SSSSngSr theIs s akiD(J1 y disposed, and the declara tion of Sitting Ball, made some months ago to a British officer in tho same eer- vice, that the people of the United States were all thieves and liars, is not far from a fair and logical deduction from the treatment nearly all these Northwestern tribes have received from the Indian agents.

The historical frauds upon the Indiana under Grant’s appoin tees have probably coat the Treasury in suppression of Indian outbreaks, more than in direct spoliation by falae and fraudulent voucher*. Heath from Hydrophobia CauTiiaua, July f t.—A moat remark able death from hydrophobia occurred yesterday near Lamar, in Barton county. Tire victim was a prominent citizen of that locality named John Ualsnr. Twelve years ago he was bitten by it nrad dog, aud tho wonud nealetl up, never giving him any pain, and the occurrence bad uearlybaon forgotten. Last Friday he was suddenly taken with convulsions of a terrible nature. He continued thus until yesterday, when ho died. The first two days of his convulsions he was perfectly rational, and on Sunday became crazy. His death and suffering were terrible to witness, it taking four stout menTo hold him. Ho leaves a wife and two children.

New Yoee, July 24 —A Wilkesbsrre letter in the Tribune gives the converse tion of a gentleman engaged in a man. ufacturing business in one of the northern counties of Pennsylvania. Ha aays the chances are that we shall have much more serions trouble within the next two months than that which came so unex pectedly list summer. Preparations are being made fora simultaneous strike ai 1 over the country on the railroads, at the mines and m many of the largest manu facturing establishments, and nothing but the utmost vigilance on the part o* tho State authorities and such prepara tions as will mako it possible to crush out auoh a movement instantly will prevent one of the worst calamities that has eTer befallen this country. Tne loth of Jane had actually been fixed for the strike, and the oatbreak wonld certainly have taken place then or soon after, but for the preparations made to preserve the peace by Gov. Hartranft when he called ont the militia and made arrangements to obtain uniforms and equipments for them at the Frankfort arsenal. Those who were to have mana ged the strike called a committee meeting .u Philadelphia, and decided to postpone me aiticfc to the fifteenth of August, when It was hoped the country ml^bt bj t ikon by surprise.

An excaihion train from Weatfeld, Mass., and other stations on the North ampton and New Haven railway, (as has been telegraphed,! was, on Saturday, the 19th instant, stopped by a gang of tiampe, and the passengers, men and women, in sulted and maltreated ad libitum. The roughs and tramps numbered forty, but the exouraioniats filled four oar*, and numbered at least flity men and as many ladies. The attack was very sudden, bnt the rongba appear to have held pos session of the train for a long time, with tho prinoipal object of amusing them selves by hootoring and bullying the men and terrifying and insulting the women. It seems to us there was time for the officers and passengers of that train to have recovered themselves and to have returned the blown of tho roughs nod protected themselves and their helpless female companions. The story is a very discreditable one. If the men of the populous regions of tho North wish to maintain order and public security, they have got to display more promptitmlo and pluck than wore shown in this case. •A'ko Drontb. The country about Macon, more par ticularly to the northward and eastward ia distressingly dry. Tho gardens long since yielded up the ghost. Late corn will be a failure. The wells are going dry. The rainB in this belt of country have been very light for tho past six months. During all that time a largo part of it has never been saturated though all corn of early planting has done very well. There will be a good deal of burnt and worthless fodder in this region, and forage will be scarce if later rains do not enconrago a grass crop. Cotton in the came region is said to be suffering very mneh—shedding badly. Some say the falling off .’u tho last ten days iiaa been equal to thirty per ceqt. Southwestern Georgia has had tw 0 pretty good rains since wo had any, and is in much better plight. Tlio ISduc atlonul Wants ot Middle and Houtliwearern Georgia. We are in receipt of two lettera from prominent and influential gentlemen, one a citizen of Milledgevitle, the other of Cnthbert, urging that a branch of the State University be located at each of those places. Our Milledgeville friend asks that the Legislature donate the old Capitol and gronnde for an agricultural or military school, with euch additional endowment os may be necessary. The representative from Cnthbert, (a meat exemplar? and public spirited citi zen) announces that the people of that beautiful and most salubrious of all tho interior towns of Southern Georgia, stand rei dy to make over In fee simple to the State, the splendid property known as the Southwestern Baptist College, with 20 acres of ground adjacent, including a pure and unfailing spring of water, and in ad dition, a new and most commodious Academy, which cost $8,000, and ten acres more of magnificently wooded land. The two lie almost contiguous, and other acquisitions of land adjoining could be had at reasonable prices, enough indeed to ta-ke an admirable experimental farm. Oar correspondent claims that South western Georgia should be provided for out of the fond derived from the sale of the Government Agricultural scrip, as it is too inconvenient, and oosts too mnoh to send her sons to so remits a point as Athens. Both cities wilt be ably represented by their best men at the approaching meet ing of the University Board of Tnuteea, at Athens, and will then and there prefer their claims. If it be practicable, we should like ex ceedingly to see the prayer of both peti tioners granted. It weald greatly en- chance the educational advantages of the commonwealth, and two 6ahooIa equally flourishing with that at Dahtonegs, would be of incalculable benefit to the State. Bnt the means to consummate these desirable projects we apprehend would have to be provided for by taxation un der the new constitution of the State, and for one we wonld cheerfully acquiesce in each a measure. It is almost impossible to expend too mneh, if the money be judiciously ap plied, for the civilization and education of the masses who virtually control the government, both State and Federal. Bat in the present imtince, so far as the avails of the agricultural scrip are con cerned, we do not see how they c:nld be consistently d.verted from their present channels. Predicated open the promise to incor porate the fund with tho University en dowment, the city of Athens built Moore College at her own charges, and the State expended $15,000 for its equip ment. The old mist at Dahlonega was giTcn by the government of the United States upon the special proviso that'it should be converted into an educational establishment, and be regarded a branch of tho University. As the matter now stands, therefore, the Board of Trustees will probably hold that the State University has peculiar and vested pigtt: ": the agricultural scrip fond, Thus, for Use income derived from the same a handsome college has been erec ted, which, with its apparatus and furni ture, cost over forty thousand dollara. In addition, all the bnildiugs,tbe grounds, library, original apparatus and appurte nances, and franchises of the University, have been turned orer to those agricul tural students who are educated free of cost, end they ehare, and share alike, in all the advantages of the old foundation. There arc grave difficulties in the way, therefore, of dividing the revenue of the agricultural fond, but we should hail with delight the establishment ot the two in stitutions asked for, at Cnthbert and Milledgeville, if it can be done without injury to the parent University. Doubtless the subject will receive the earnest attention cf the Board of Trus tees, and be discussed moat thorongbly at its next meeting. To Whom It may Concern. The editor of this paper who usually compiles the "Georgia Press" column thereof, has been complained of in a pri vate letter to one of his associates as showing in that colninn undue partiality to General Cook, one of tho candidates for the Congressional nomination in the Third District. The writer of that com munication should have addressed it to the offending party. The latter is alone responsible for the alleged offense, and, it seems to him, should have been personally informed of the cause of com plaint. He thinks that courtesy, if nothing else, should have indicated this coarse. We reply to this correspondent that ws have only published in that column what the newspapers of bis district say of the contest now going on. We give their reports and utterances just as we do sim ilar news from other districts, the only difference, perhaps, being that as the Third District is nearer home, and the Tbliubiph aed Messenger has a very large circulation in its limits, our reports from the conntics composing it aro toiler and more frequent. That a large ma jority ot the papors of the Third District favor General Cook’d renomination is not our fault, neither should our reproduc tion of what they say on the subject give offense to any reasonable man. If they talked about other candidates wo should quoto their utterances just the uamo. While we have a decided personal pref erence among the candidates, not only in the Third, bnt in all the other districts, we do not intend to allow that par tiality to work injustice to others. AU shall have fair play, and the Tsn- EOBipir asd Messenger will givo a cor dial and zealous support to the nominee, whoever he may be. Democratic unity and success are the primo considerations with ns, and to that end wo shall always work. THE GKOHG1A A’KESS. Up an African Aftver. In a second letter, dated at Monrovia, Mr. Williams, correspondent of the Charleston News and Courier, gives : highly interesting report of an expedi tion up the St. Paul’s River and some of ita tributaries—a long letter which that paper hastily summarizes thus: Seizing tho first opportunity, Mr. Wil liams, in a boat well manned with Kroo- men, started off on an expedition np tho St. Paul’s River. The scenery on Stock- ton Creek is strangely bountiful. How familiar, too, are the names of the settle ments on tho Creek, and on the St. Paul's. Here are Now Georgia, Cald well, Lower and Upper Virginia, aud Clay-Ashland. Birds of gorgeous plum age hover abont tho dense vegetation on the banks. The air is rich with perfume. On every side waves the feathery palm. Animals abound. The hippopotamus and tho alligator bask in the mud of the creeks. Deer are in the coverts. Panthers, porcupines, squirrels, and many kinds of monkeys are found in profnsion. In the vegetable kingdom, the variety of genua and species ia al most infinite. With tho fever plant ma larial fever is cured; the soap-tree fur nishes ready-made soap; the tooth-plant supplies tooth-brushes; the hemorrhage plant is a a powerful styptic; then como pepper, ginger, indigo, lye-plants, the caesada, which is a staple aiticle of food, and the glorioas palm, rich in diverse usefulness, and so highly esteemed that a heavy fine is imposed on any one who destroys it. This is only the beginning. Rice grows wild, although most of the rice used by the Liberians is im ported from Europe. The coffee trees bear in the third year, each tree produc ing from one to fivo pounds of berries, wot th 25 cents a pound. One large tree that was noticed produces from five to ten pounds. Cotton is not a plant, bnt i bush or free. One cotton bush was 8 feet high and 12 feet broad. It had yielded for nine years, often twice a year, from 2.000 to 3,000 bolls. No replanting’ is necessary, except ever; twelve or fifteen yeara. The cotton grows witbont any cultivation. Nor is Liberia wanting in minerals. Iron ojfe is found which gives 85 per cent, of pure metal. Nature has done so mneh for Liberia and man so little 1 The houses are cramped and in bad repair. Liberians live mainly on canned meats and imported vegetables. Of fruit no store is kept. The only means of travelling on the St. Paul’s is by the common dug-out. Profit able as ia the culture of the sugar cane, there are only two or threo mills on the whole river. Mr. Williams saw milk in bnt two places. Cincinnati is Distanced.—The bear shops in New Yoik are now vending the Ingur at three cents a glass all round— from schooners down to ponies. Der ergtzidemond is great A Tribute to Nouthwest Ueot-giu On the 6th of this month the fruit growers of Fulton connty were assembled at their nsnal place, in the Agricultural Department in the Capitol, with a fine display before them and many visitors. Onr own honored Governor was present. After the members had made their little speeches concerning their exhibits ac cording to their custom, Go\ ernor Col quitt was called upon. He stated that he had no speech to make, but would like to ask a question. He said tbat he no- tioed tbat -v-ry speaker yielded the palm to Mr. Jenkins, and asked whether the credit was due to tho man or the land? The president of tne meeting answered, tbat we had last year, iu Macon, at cur State Horticultural Convention, tne finest peach show that was ever on this continent and Mr. Jenkins had not only the largest peaches bat the largest apples on c-x- htbition, and they were grown on his farm in Southwest Georgia. Oes mem ber stated that the Catnese Cling grew to weigh nine ounces. Another slated tbat Mr. Jenkins had toetn in Macon weighing fourteen ounces. Mr. Jenkins then stat ed tbat it was trne tbat be had peaches at Macon weighing fourteen ounce, and aix of them eo d fur $3.16; thst tee ap ples referred ti «ere awarded a silver medal at the American Pomolcgical Con vention at Biltimore, that tbisi facts were published in the newspapers, and a reliable party in an adjacent ecnnty to the one in which his fruit farm, ‘‘Harvest Home.” is, having written to him that he grew Chinese Clings weighing seventeen ounces, he inferred that the “credit was due to the land and not to the man.— Bunny South.

The Atlanta correspondent of the Greensboro Herald writes tbat “Ge neral Gordon’s friends think that he w'tll have no real opposition for in-election to the Senate.

He was a gallant Confed erate soldier, and had been sheriff of the connty and clerk of the , Superior Conrt: The same paper has tho following: Mr. Kennington, who lives some six' teen milee in Alabama, happened to a very serions, and perhaps fatal, accident yesterday morning. When near the brickyard in upper Girard, coming to town, the horse which he w&3 driving to a small express wagon became frightened at the drum of a oolored picnic party, and began to kick himself loose fiom the wagon. Mr. K., who was sitting in the front of the wagon, was unable to get ont, and received three terrible kicks, fracturing hia right leg very badly, and fearfully bruising his breast and jaw. The horse finally kicked loose from the wagon, which fact may have saved Mr. Keanington’s life. Mr.J.B. Wynn, well known in Troup county, was so seriously injured last week at Ls Fayette, Ala., by the falling of a roof, os to cause his doatn a few days since. The IjsGrangc Reporter has the follow ing: Last Saturday night, a young man by the name of Watson, living near Stand ing Rock, Chambers county, Ala., aoout a dozen miles west uf LaGrange, was brutally murdered. Wo have beard tbs following report of tho affair : It was quarterly meeting at standing Rook church. Mr. Watson, who was a pious exemplary young man, was at church; and while Rev. Mr. Whitten, the presiding eider, was preaching, he heard some disturbance among hia mules, and wont out to see abont it. He dis covered that one of his mules had been unhitched and tbat a man bad it a short distance off. He halted the man, and called out, "That’s my mute; what are you going to oo with him ?" The other oureed him and said "come and get him.” Watson started towards in:::, when the man shot him centrally in the abdomen which caut ed hia death next morning. It is not known who was the murderer, but suspicion rests on one William Hol liday. Holliday ia said to be a desperate character, und he was missing from his home next day, und was seen in Georgia Of course this is only suspicion. We And the following in the Dnblin Post: The arrest on last Monday of Mrs. Perry, widow of the late|Mr. Jogn Perry, who died last May. has again set to wag ging all the goseippiug tongues of thd community, and excited afresh the glit tering dreams of the parties concerned. A few months before Air. Perry died, he (old hts bod, Edward Perry, that he had $4,000 in gold buried, which ho in tended for hia caildren by bia first wife tbat be bad given hia second wile and her only sun, Rawis Perry, what he had in tended for them—that no one knew ex cept himself and wife where tho said $4,000 was buried—that she wonld in form him (Edward Parry) after his (John Perry’s) death where the gold was bnrioil. A few days after bia fath er's death, Edward Perry went over and asked for the will, and made some gen eral inquiries, to see if the widow wonld produce the $4,000 of her own accord. Bat ebo made no illn9ion to it whatever. He then asked hsr abont it direotiy. Sho confessed that her late hnsband had left the money as Edward stated,—said sho bad been and dug for it, bnt failed to find it. She adheres to it, that v&e money is somewhere in the neighborhood of where she deg, bnt she can't recobcot exactly where. On examination n was fo cud that she bud dug bnt one hole—that the bottom of tbat holo showed the impres sion of a little sqnaro box—and two ne groes testify thst they saw Mrs. Parry and her daughter-in-law (Rawls’ wife) digging at that place—that they took ont a box and knocked off one side of it— that one of them went to tho house, re turned with a dish-pan and put a portion of the contents of the box into the pan and returned to the house, taking with them the box and the pan. It was npon the strength of tho testi mony of these negroes which was not ob tained till a few days ago, that Mrs. Perry was arrested and brought to Dublin on Monday evening. The fig crop about Albany ia excep tionally large this year, and a drying ma chine is in operation. Valdosta has shipped 24,376 ponnda of wool this ye*r, against 21,247 ponnds in 1877.

From the increasing demand by parties desirous of entering intosheep raising, these lands are now held at higher figures than they were a snort time ago. A few days ago a gentleman from Nic aragua was prospecting in Worth for the purpose of securing grazing lands to start sl sheep ranch.

Editors Telegraph and ilesseiger: Boarding the 8:40 Atlanta train yesterday morning, your correspondent arrived iu a short while at Smart's station, and there exchanging his iron horse for one ol flash | and tlscd, toon found himself on the grounds of the 3am Tilden High School, an Institution under the management of Professor J. H. Brooks. Under sn im mense arbor which bid been constructed for the occasion, a large crowd frcmaU parts of the country was assembled. Beginning about 8 a. m. t al most the entire morning was taken up in. examinations, including the branches qi spelling, English gram mar, reading, arithmetic, geography, al gebra, Latin and French grammrx and reading, geometry aud the higher math ematics. During the entire exercises, we could not but remark the air ol per fect confidence with which the pupils discharged their duties as they were suc cessively called upon. There were un mistakable evidences of thorough train ing and close application. In proof of the esteem in which Professor Brcoka is held, we need only say that he has drawn several pupils troui Forsyth, as well as from aections of the country many miles distant. At the closa of the examina tion, and after an interval filled with mit- sio. Judge Tripp, of Atlanta, was intro duced to the audience. The judge promised at the outset to ba brief, and, contrary to the general role, made good bis word. He ad dressed his remarks entirely to trie pu pils of the school and in a manner sim ple, forcible and eloquent, impressed npon them the great importance of even the youngest of them discharging his or her whole duty. The address, from be ginning to end, was replete witli wise counsel and oarnest admonition, and was fully worthy its distinguished uuthor. ' At 2:80 p. m. the sudleuoa reasaimbled to witness tho performance of tho sohool in declamation and composition reading. A glance at the pro gramme at once ooavmoad ue that both selections and oompesitious were fresh and original in ohiraclor. "Spartiens to the Gladiators,'* "Has the Gentleman done?" "Let no man dare, etc.,” and many other old veterans in the cause of sobool-boy oratory were, for tho ones, laid aside, and something new and fresh, many or the pieces being of Pro fessor Brooka’own composition, substi tuted for them. The pupils, although many of them arc quite small, acquitted themselves admirably. We overheard Judge Trippe remark that "no chiidteu of their age could do better.” At the close of these exercises tue audi ence was addressed for a few moments by Mr. H. M. Smith; of Macon, srhp was followed by Mr. D. U, Fletcher, lato of Vanderbilt University. Mr. Fletcher bss a very pleasant delivery, and, for several minutes, hold the perfect utteation of his hearers. He displays a depth and versatility of thought beyoud bis years and is ranked among the most promising young men of bis connty. Tne large audienoo again dispersed to assemble agsin at 1 o’olock. Rev. W. R. Foote, ot Augusta, who was to have opened the entertainment with an address, whs unavoidably absent, mneh to the regret of those who had heard the gentleman before.

This lady by her indomitable will and energy in her own department is doing much towurds build ing up the school, and in preparing for the entertainment just closed proved liereclf ot inestimable assistance to Prof. Brooks. Her pupils displayed, a degree of proficiency that reflected great credit both npon themselves and teacher. The programme was occasionally varied with performances by Mr. Lamar 8mitb, of Forsyth, who is a perfect ger ins on the stigp. He gave exhibitions ot his ven- triloquistie" powers which, except in strength, were equal to any p.-ofesuional. The entire entertainment was interesting ia the extrems; and when .he hour ot twelve drew nigh the crowc! dispersed, and happy and content, betook them selves to their several homes. NuNTlUi. Ex-Secretary Fish on Grant Iiiterriow in New YorkJIerald.J "Do you regard it as very probable that tho Democrats will have the next President.” "No. I think that the Republican party has still a very good chance to ca ry tho next Presidential election, even the Democrats should gain both houses of Congress. The Democrats coasider themselves very strong iu the South; but if the consolidation of the South for the Democrats is pressed too much, the North may rally round the Republican party. Remember that of the old tree States tho Democrats ia the last election only carried four—New York, New Jer sey, Connecticut and Indiana.” "A3 against either ot the Democratic candidates whom you have named, he would Grant run?” "General Grant has still a very large following.” "In spits of’—your correspondent queried, hesitatingly. “In spite of everything.” Mr. Fish in torrupted, with emphatic earnestness. “General Grant has still a great hold upon the oountry.

Slice From me Heart ol Uoth iam. New Tort Evening Post.J It is said that the heirs of Mr. Robert ■triwards are about to attempt to prove their title to neaiiy fifty acres iu the neighborhood of Broadway and Canal street, formerly owned by Edwards. In the year 1770 Edwards executed a lease of the land to the Crown of England for term of ninety-nine years. The lease expired in 1871, at which time a call was made for t he legal heirs to came forward, prove their identity, receive the lease money and take charge of the property. It is further claimed that Robert Edwards married a Miss Bibb, sister of Nancy Bibb, who married Martin Hey, of Vir ginia ; that Edwards died, his widow surviving him many years: that she died without issue, thus leaving Nancy Bibb Hey, the wife of Martin Key, of Virginia, and a brother heiro of the estate, and that the lease money now due amounts to $90,000,000, to say nothing of the title to the property. Oa the 20th of last April a ' convention of the relatives was held at Louisa Court House, in Virginia, at which resolutions were passed appointing investigating and prosecuting committees. Similar meetings have also been held iu Ken tuoky aud Indiana. The services of counsel have also been secured. Among the alleged heirs is Marcus A. Bell, ot Atlanta, Ga., whose mother was a daugh ter of William Bibb Koy, a son of Martin and Nancy Bibb Key, of Virginia. A Diplomatic Answer. Cleveland Qerald.J The old man Smith, of Richfield, is a self sufficient sorter old fellow, and prides himcslf upon hia riding abilities. One day he espied his young hopeful leading a colt to water rather gingerly and remarked: ‘Why on earth don’t' you ride that beast ?’ ‘I'm ’fraid tc; ’fraid he’ll throw me. ‘Bring that lio?a here,” snapped the old man. The colt was urged up to the fence, and braced on one side by the bay while th* old man climbed on to tlie rails and stocked binuelf on the colt's hick. Thea he was let go, aud the old .gentleman rode proudly off. Paralyzed by fear the eolt went slowly for about twenty rods without a demonstration. Then like lightning his four legs bunched togotbe . his back bowed like a viaduct arch and the old man shot up in the air, turned seven separate nod distinct HometsiuiUs and lit on the small of his back in the middle of the road, with both legs twisted around bis neck. Hastening tc him tho young hopeful anxiously inquired: ‘Did it bi.it yon, pa?’ The oil man rose slowly, shook oat the knots in his legs, blushed the dust from his ears and hair and tubbing bis braised elbows, growled: ‘Well, it didn’t do me a dutn bit of good.

SEA FOAM contains no ingredient «>r clement which can produce an injurious effect, but on the contrary fins in itself a tendency i * sustain and nourish the human system. It is ABSOLUTELY PUBE Not infrequently the best of Hour gets all the blame, when iu reality the dark color aud pour taste are both caused by tlie use of inferior raising powder. Many bal.iug powders now highly recommended by grocers, and hene.r largely sold, are made of old bones ground up, and by a chemical process mixed with oth.. ingredients. Before lending their influence to ; increase the sale of any baking powder, grocers would do well to ascertain the reputation and standing of its manufacturer:;. They woul.l thus avoid becoming instrumental iu perpe trating a fraud on their customers, and would in the long run make more money. Of course no honest man would knowingly lend himself to such a fraud upon his customers, and it is very poor policy for any grocer to attempt to palm off inferior goods when tlie best are asked for.* He may by. so doing make a litti? money at the time, but he surely will at some time, if tho fraud is discovered, lose one of his best customers, and with him a score of others who might otherwise have dealt with him. A merchant’s wisest policy is to secure the best customers, and they arc just tho ones who wont the best goods.
