"THE CIAUTAQUA ORCHESTRA CON- CERT COMPANY. -This talented con• pany was greeted by a large house on the occasion of: their appearance in Cardno's Hall on Wednesday evening` last. The audience, however, was not nearly iito large as the entertainment de- served. It was one of the very ..;best;, musical entertainments ever listened to in this town. The orchestra is cornnp9s- ed of some twelve instruments, and the music they produce is simply enchant-, ing. As a vocalist, Mrs. Murray trick - s= ick son has a beautiful, clear, powerful voice and pleasing manner,and several of her selections were encored. Her only fault is that her articulation is. scarcely ,distinct enough for those who wish to follow the sentiment of the song' as well as the music. MissMacGillivray has a sprightly,pleasantappearance and is a good elocutionist, while Mr. ' Ram- say, as a comic singer, brought down the house every time. The cornet, vio- lin and flute solos were also good. Mr. Arthur Depew, musical director. con- ductor and pianist, a young man only twenty years of age is a perfect music- al prodigy. He is not only a competent director, and accomplished pianist, but is also a clever composer and writ- er of music. His father,Mr. Jas.Depew, the manager, and who, by` the way,is a former resident of this county," is - thorough gentleman, and is -justly proud of his talented company. They are deserving of and should - e edily win public confidence and_ll�j� support. The company la connected with "the Niagara Assembly," •or the Canadian Chautauqua, a summer resort located on the shores of Lake Ontario, near Niagara, and one of their objects in giving these entertainments is to bring this enterprise, which is largely controlled by citizens of Toronto, more prominently before the public. They certainly do the Canadian Chautauqua credit." This company appears under the auspices of the Sons of England Be- nevolent Society,(on Friday evening, Jan. 24th, in Drew's,, Opera: House.

It gives you more news of immediate interest than Toronto or other papers. It talks for you when other papers belie you; it stands up for your rights; you always have a companion in your home paper, and those who stand up for you should certainly be well sustained. Your in- terests are kindred and equal, and you must rise or fall . together. Therefore, it is for your interest to support your home paper; not grudgingly, but in a liberal way ;not as a disagreeable duty, but as an investment that will amply repay the expenditure.

People who: become greatly displeased with something they find in the newspaper should remember that the very thing that displeases them is exactly the thing that will most please somebody that has just as much interest in the. paper as they have.It takes all kinds of people to make a world, we are told, and the patrons of a newspaper are made' upsif' all the elements of - the world.

When you. buy on credit you have to pay not only your own debt but all the bad debts of your merchant. He tells you frankly that if he did not loose so much he could sell cheaper to you: By the credit system the retail merchant is forced to buy on credit, the jobber' must do the same,and the wholesale merchant the same. Nine times out often the retail merchant gets hard pressed; he sells everything he can, pockets the money, puts his hands in the armholes of his vest, and cooly offers his creditors 33* cents on the dollar. Throw off the burden of credit and adopt the cash system. On Thursday evening last, a meet- ing of those interested in Draughts, or checkers as it is commonly called, was held. 141x.
