Interesting Examination.
The following interesting colloquy, passed be
tween a learned §choolmaster, and a very interest
ing youth. As the subject is a novel, as well as
an important one, your readers will pardon its
insertion here. -
Schoolmaster—(With a copy of the " Intelligen
cer.")=James, in looking over the columns of this
paper, I find there are three or four "cheapest"
Book Stores in our city. As this cannot possibly
be, will you endeavor to give me an explanation.
James.—Nothing easier, sir. Spangler & Brother
sell very cheap, while the others only feel very cheap.
Schoolmaster.—Excellent solution ; your , e a credit
to the school. Can you now tell me the difference
between the largest stock of "stationery," and the
largest stationary stock?
Jantes.—l. think I can, sir. Spangler k. Brother
hayn. decidedly the largest stock of stationery,
such for instance, as elegant note paper, envelopes,
foolscap and letter paper, blank books, quills, slates,
wafers, seating war, and a host of elegant articles
besidesq whilst some bookstores I know of, have
the largest amount of stationary stock, that is,
Old Books that wont sell ! ! !
Schoolmaster .—That , ll do, that'll do,
.James.
Ha! ha!! ha! ! ! I shall die laughing ; oh, my
poor sides. You may go and play now:

Trustee's Sale of Valuable Real
Estate.
WATER-POWER, COTTON AND WOOLLEN
FACTORY,
GRIST AND SAW MILLS.
BY virtueof a decree and order of the High
Court of Chancery Of the State of Maryland, the
• undersigned, as Trustee, will sell at public auction
from the Court House door in Elkton, on SATUR
DAY the 26th 01 January neat, all that very valua
ble Cotton 3.n d Woollen Factory, Grist and Saw
Mills, together with S 9 ACRES OF LAND, more
or less, of arable and woodland, being part of the
Real Estate whereof the,. late Col. Wm. Garrett,
died seized.
This property lies 7 miles north of the town of
Elkton, in Cecil county, Maryland, and about the
same distance from the Philadelphia, Wilmington
and Baltimbre Railroad, and other public convey
ances to the cities of Philadelphia and Baltimore,
and is commonly known by the name of
GARRETT'S FACTORIES
The buildings consist of a Cotton and Woollen
Factory, nearly new-85 feet long by 35 feet wide,
and 3 stories high , a Grist and Saw Mill in good
repair; 7 Tenant Houses, to be occupied by the
operatives in the Factory; a \IANS°ON .6or
HOUSE for the proprietor, together with 4",1:
a good and substantial Farm House; also
a large and commodious Barn with Stabling beneath,
Granary, Corn-crib, and othe• convenient and ne
cessary out-buildings, all in good repair. There is
also a good Apple Orchard on the farm. The arable
land is in a high state of cultivation, and all under
good fencing. There is sufficient wood upon this
property to supply necessary fuel.
The Cotton and Woollen Factory has been in
constant and successful operation for nearly 30
years past, with the exception of a few months in
the year 1840, when it was re-built upon an im
proved plan. Its connections are extensive, and it
is well known as one of the very best establishments
of the kind in the State. It is situated on the Big
Elk, a copious ana powerful stream of water at all
seasons of the year. The neighborhood is remark
ably healthy, and noted for the purity of its air and
water. There are several places of worship of
various denominations within a convenient distance,
together with well conducted schools. Delaware
College is located in the town of Newark, about
4 miles distant, and affords an excellent opportunity
for the attainment of the higher branches of edu
cation.
There are no other Cotton and Woollen Factories
within many miles, it will therefore be seen that
this property presents many inducements to persons
desirous of- engaging in the business.
Further description is deemed unnecessary, as
those who think of purchasing can view the prem
ises for themselves. Any other information will be
willingly given upon application Co .'ilrs. Sarah Ann
Garrett, residing on the premises, or to the sub

A Thrilling Incident
AT THE CHEAP BOOKSTORE.—A few
days since, while gazing at the eager crowd
hurrying into, and 'congregating around Spang
lers Cheap Bookstore, our attention
.was drawn
to a young gentleman whose noble appearance
soon made him the "observed of all observers."
Alter lotiking for a few momenta upon the busy
scene with cordent admiration. he suddenly gave
expression to his feeling in the following exquis
ite parody:
I knew by the crowd that an hurriedly rushed
To the door and the window that a Bookstore
was near,
And I said, if CHEAP Booxs in the world can be
found,
The eager crowd seeking will sure find them
here.
'Tie noon; and in Book Stores that once flour
ished LARGE,
On the counter site snoozing the once active
clerk,
Every LEAF is at rest, and I hear not a sound;
While at Spangler & Brother's all hands are
at work.
"Alt, here in this Bookstore, (he gently ex
claimed,)
- With a maid who was lovely to soul and to
eye.
Who would blush when I praised her and weep
when I blamed,
What a stock of FINE ANNUALS I surely would
buy."
Nercome by the intensity of his feelings, the
youthful poet rushed into the store, and in a few
moments we saw him coming out with two of
Spangler's finest Books.
Midas converted everything he tonched into
gold,and the fabled Medusa changed all on whom
she gazed into stone, but Spangler & Bro., with
a nobler impulse, are satisfied with kindling the
genial flame upon the Muses altar, and selling
good Books a little cheaper than their neighbors.
