were again s(rood yesterday. Colonial
issues reached the highest figures.

$450; a set of three Maryland coins, a
shilling, a sixpence and a great, one of
which bore tlae bust of Lord Balthnore,
839 each; a New England shilling of
Massachusett'
s $43,50, and a pine tree
shilling of 1652, $11.25. A Carolina
halfpenny, 1694, sold for $37, and a
New York cent of 1786, with a bust of
Governor Clinton and the motto, "Non
vi virtute vici," sold for $29.
The best price for a dime was $41, for
the issue of 1822, with four stars.
Dimes of 1804 and 1811 brought $25
apiede. A half dime of 1802 sold for

attending the sale were indignant at
the thiealened seizure by the secret
service authorities of some counterfeits
of rare colonial coins. The originals of
these coins, they say, are not now re-
deemable by any government, and the
counterfeits wore only struck for scien-
tific purposes, and are of value only- to
numismatists.—New York Tribune.

ZURICH PAST AND Pansmsr.—Con-
tinued.—Our village can boast of four
general stores, all doing a good busi-
ness. The firms of Happel & Cleghorn
on 17ictoria, street:J & E. 'Sterner and
D. Steinbach, Main street, and D. S.
Faust on North street.
The store now occupied by Messrs
Rappel & Cleghorn, was formerly oc
cupied by Messrs. Wagner & Axt.
The latter gentlemen for a number of
years did a good business. A little
over a year ago,howeveatlae stock,ete.,
was sold to Messrs Happel and Cleg-
horn, who have been doings equally as
good a business ever since. The store
its self is an imposing structure stand-
ing on the east side of Victoria street,
a short distance from the mill reserve.
The business is ably conducted by- Mr.
Cleghorn assisted by Messrs Wagner
and Schnell as elerks, all of 'which gen-
lemen understand their business per-
fectly, being courteous and obliging,
they win the esteem and confidence of
their tcally customers.
The above mentioned gentlemen be-
ing thoroughly familiar svith both the
English and German language, are
able to deal satisfactorily with all in
the neighborhood. The firm is now re-
ceiving a large stock of new goods
and in order to clear out the old stock
to make room for the new, are offering
summer dress goods, muslins,laces,etc,
at extremely low prices. A full line of
the best tweed is also kept in stock. A
specialty is made of sugars, teas and
coffee. All kinds of farm produce tak-
en in exchange. A rumor is afloat,
that Messrs Ha,pple & Cleghorn are a-
bout to dissolve partnership. We hope
that this is only a rumor and not a fact,
as the loss of such successful and 0 -
bilging citizens would be a serious
blow to the boom of business in our
lively- little village.
