% A ODESTY forbids us (to ase a slang phrase) to blow our own horn, and as it is contrary h to our opinion (according to the old proverb) when in Rome to do 1s Rome does, we shall endeavor, as heretofore, to present tacts so undeniable as to be beyond the reach ot dis- pute. True, people have gained for themselves a name (not an enviable one) which, to al appearances, served the purpose they had in view. But wisdom dictates, before posing as leaders in the great race for sapremacy, that we should look well to the foundation upon which those assertions are based. To throw the mantle of charity over such people is our motto; and instead of revealing to the public gaze, through your columns, the errors — which they have fallen, we will endeavor to lead them gently into the light. That you a

acquiesce in what wt Say, is a foregone conclusion, namely, as Fathers of the trade in this Province we treat the several branches of the trade in this city with the same conshlereties os a loving parent would his innocent offspring ; and to this end we invite such traders . aim high and co-operate in elevating this, the first profession, to the high status to wv aaaee is entitled.
