We should not have noticedthirxirthe advent of these men, had they not opened the way for us to do so. We need not say very much, because the people o! Blenheim must be heartily sick of these adventurers, who trade upon the credulity of the unenlightened, by using freely such terms as BARGAINS! '<SIEAT>BARGAINS 1 1 with a contrary result, and then to moke it important they catalogue ; then if that won't do, they try mock auctions ; then, if they find they cannot work sufficiently upon the people hi one place, they take the stnff elsewhere, with the same cry— Great Bargains, catalogues, mook auctions, &c. However, some men live by their wits. We cannot say we envy or are desirous of imitating them, A fair, legitimate business is, hi the long run, far better both for buyer
