The Doyton^O) Journal (Repub
oxo, days ago said that tbe death
knell of tbe Republican party had
Jwen eonnded. In acknowledging
defeat and reproving those party
pipers .which died so bard, it arid;
‘‘We d^n’t Want to -dief untill ws
have to, but we don’t care to be
kicking at tbe coffin lid when it is
more agreeable to lie quietly.”
The beauty aboot the canvasa of
the refurns ls, that the kicking at
tho coffin lid did’not for one mo
ment delay tbe funeral procession,
A red hot Northern protection
journal now comes squarely out
with the acknowledgment that tbe
manufacturers of tbe North are
more fearful of Southern competi
tion than ol foreign rivalry. What
is worse for them is the fact that
they don’t know what to do about
it. ’

TotM and Fell in a Day !
Specially was this true of many large and celebrated Clothing
manufacturers who had mode up numerous stocks from materi
als bought on credit. These manufacturers placed their faith
on lively ar.d profitable September trade, absolutely relying on
it for furds to meet their maturing paper, which they had given
for piece goods, but the trade did not come, the continuous
warm weather and no customers cooked their “goose,” and there
was nothing left for them to do but to fail and turn their goods
over to an Assignee. It was bad for them, but it is in your
power to make it good for you, for, as usual, when good goods
are to be sacrificed we are always on hand. Our Mr. Joe
Waxelbaum was there, and notwithstanding the fact that we
were already pvepaicd with a stock of Seventy-Five Thousand
Dollars, we bought Thirty-Three Thousand more in Boys, Chil
drens and.Men’s Clothing, Dry Goods, Dress Goods, Fancy
Goods, Corsets, etc., at prices varying from 30 to 60 per cent,
of the actual value. Promptly at 8 o’clock Monday Mornfilg

and itgwill be to the interest of every one in this city or country
to be on hand, for at the prices we propose selling these goods
you were never offered them in the history ol the dry goods,
clothing, boot and shoe trade.
