prove himself as kind and obliging a

BgU As a matter of peculiar interest to
themselves, Drafted Men, and others,
would do well to read the "Notice io
Drafted Men;" wherein K. T. Foster,
Receiver, gives notice where the commu

T. & E. Smith, at Geneva, N. Y., wc Icarn,
recently delivered over five hundred dollars
worth of trees to farmers, and others in this
County, all of which gave perfect satisfac
tion. It will be gratifying to alj interested
in fruit culture, to learn that Mr. C. designs
extending his acquaintance among them, for
the purpose of affording them further facili

Messrs. Smith's have some three hundred
acres under nursery culture, and are thus
enabled, through their agent, to furnish Fruit
and Ornamental Trees and Shrubs, of every
description, al very reasonable prices.
