Dear Str, —It is much to be regretted that there lives in our midst a woman who, for many years past, has made it a practice of writing anonymous letters, detrimental to many respectable ladies and gentlemen, and marring the happiness of their various homes. Of course, an anonymous letter is beneath the notice of a right-thinking person, fer when a woman is afraid to come out boldly and sign her name to what she has written, it shows er character at once. At the same time she should be brought to justice, and be visited with condign punishment. I write this so that the guilty party may take warning be fore she uses her biue ink again, for, be well as- sured, if I ever receive a letter trom her again, or hear of any one else deing so, I shall publish her name in full. Yours, &e., A GrRIEV#p PARENT. Fashionable Wedding. Tux marriage of the Rev. Henry Pelham Stokes, M. A., rector designate of Wareham Dorset, with Miss Harriet Worrell, daughter of Colonel Hamilton Gray, C. M.

He was brought to the 'Mines and tried before Justices Farman, | Beatty and Campbell, on a charge pre- ferred by Mr. Atkins, druggist, one of the |victims.

STOGK-TAKING. ‘ V E hereby inform the pub- lic of this city, and the Island generally, that previous to Stock-taking, we have re- solved to clear out as much of our Winter Stock as possible. We are aware that at this season it is hard to get people to buy even at reduced prices; but in the face of this difficulty we have made up our mind to adopt full measures, and sell our Wool Goods and Dress Goods at a sacrifice. Our Goods have been very cheap all winter, as the run of trade we have had fully testifies, Our store has become the resort of those Ladies who know how tomake a penny go a long way, and who know a cheap article when they see it; and when we say we are going to reduce the prices of our Dress Goods and Trimmings, we know we shall be believed. We are particul- arly anxious to clear out our present Stock, in order to intro- duce as much of the newest style of Dress Material as possible, and at the very lowest prices. We shall make special prices on Black Cashmeres, Black Meri- nos, Black Cords and Lustres, Lustrines and Brilliantines. Our Faney Wool Goods will be sold at less than cost. Our Stock of this class was the larg- est, most select, and finest in the city, and the remains of it will be sold at a great sacrifice. Blankets, Quilts, Horse Rugs, Xe., will be cleared out at great Bargains. We make no apology to the Tea-drinking public for drawing their attention to our fine flavored and rich Teas, 32, 36, and 40 cents per lb. They are receiving the highest praise, and those who use them, strongly recommend them to others. Our trade in this article is growing rapidly. Tea appeals to the most subtile of the senses, and as the proof of the pudding is in the eating, so the proof of the Tea is in the drinking. Friends, try it. 83, QUEEN STREET, ‘TREMAINE & METCALF.
