NOTICE.,
gentlemen, from Exeter, came here iii a
double .conveyance, for the purpose of at-
tending the Scott Act Convention, Their
horses were put up at the Grand Vahan
stable, When they came to get ready, for

i'ession.
We do plat attach aqq blame to . the pro-
prietress of the hotel for this, because she
certainly knew nothing about it, and we
do not 'suppose for a moment that she
would countenance such a thing, but it
was done by some one,nevertheless, and
we, say this, that if anything of.a similar
nature occurs again, the party guilty
thereof will be severely punished.
