A, Weeks & Co., dry goods merchants, Our opinion isthat a Lion couchant or rampant would look better, but it is only our idea. We doubt not the firm have pleased themselves; and are satisfied with the Lion’s share of the trade. . We j ass - to notice the signs of J. B. Macdonald, 8. W. Me Murray and George E. Full, «il swinging gaily to the breeze, and pause 2 moment to admire the attractive sign of Brnee & MeKenzio, emerchan’ tailors, who, according to the design of their sign, can measure the capa- city of any man exterhally if not internally. We next glance over at the mammoth boot over the shop of J. Dorsey, stggestive of the thought that there were giants in the days when boots ef that size were worn, @ndthen at the neat and enaniiaidien sign of P. G. Fraser, druggist, and round- Jing the corner take a view to the west at the excelsior sign of Tremain & Metcalf whose trade mark, if we may j judy ye from their sign, is “‘ u ward and onward. We finish our observations with the latest de- velopment over the new grocery stor of Robertson & Ca veron, which we su Ippe sa is intended to Crown all the rest.

We wish them, one and all, every success, Leng may they wave. And although those among them Gf any there be) who do not adversise in the EXAMINER may not meet with the prosperity which attend those who do, they have talen the next best step te attain it. If they act on the hint we have given them they will be almost sure of suc cess, and should all fail, they can then say, “Tis not in mortals to command success, but wo have done more, Sempronius, we have deserved i:.” Com.
