Better Bargains than ever, at the Three Dig
Doors.
THE subscriber would respectfully inform his cui
tomer!' and the public genecally, that notwithstad
ing the unpreceaenteel sales at the Three Big Doors,
during the present season; he has still on hand the lar
gest and most varied assortment of elegant CLO
THING that can be bought west of the mountains.—
The public may rest assured that all articles offered at
his store are maufactured from FRESH GOODS, pur
chased in tha Eastern markets this spring tun' made in
to garments by Pitusburgh workmen.
In consequence of the multiplication of slop shops in
our city, filled with pawn brokers clothes and the musty,
cast off garments of former seasons, from the eastern ci
ties, the public should be cautious to ascertain the char
acter of the establishments in whickthey are invited to
purchase, before they part with their money. The arti
cles offered at several of the concernain this city, are
the mere offals of New York and Philadelphia slop
shops, and sent out here to be ixtlmixl off on the Pitts
burgh public. Purchasers should be on their guard a
gainst these impositions, and they may rely on the fact
thatno establishment that advertises eastern made Clo
thing, can give as good all article or as advantageous
bargains as can be had at the "Three Big Doors."
The public will please remember that all the subscri
ber's garraents are made in this city, by competent work
men, and not gathered up like the goods now offered by
the "birds of passage" from the shreds and patches of
eastern slop shops. It will always be his endeavor to
maintain the reputation that the "Three Big Doors"
have obtained for furnishing a superior style of CLO
THING in every respect, and at prices below those of
any other establishment.
He would again return his thanks to his friends and
the public for the unprecedented patronage bestowed
upon his establishment, and believing that they have
tonna it to diets advantage to deal with him, he would
repeat his invitation to all those who wish to purchase
einthing of every description at the lowest prioe,to call

FOE SAFETY,
Travellers should select Boats prorided milk
Evan's Safety Guards fur p, eventing E.cplosion of
Steam Bailers.
IT would be well for the traveling community to
bear in mind that their security depends entirely
upon their own encouragement of bouts that have or
tniy be at the expense of pmcnring the above appara
tus. And that every individual making such selec
tions is contributing, towards a general introductikm of
ri invention admitted by all men who understand the
jacipleA of the Steam En.ine, to be a sure peeventa
the wirier. tholie dreadful di4aster3. You have cer-
"1 • ;in the hundreds of explosions that hare already
akin place, their ililtton daily occurrence, and the
thousands of lives that have already been lost, a suffi
cient warning, and inducement to make inquiry for a
Safety pun! Bout, and in every case to give it the
preference. They have went to an additional expense
that your lives may be secure. Ought you not therefore
to meet them with a correspontling degree of liberality,
bred by your pnierence show that you appreciate their
!amid& endeavors to stop this awful sacrifice of hu
man life. Th e y do not charge more than other boats;
their accommodatioms in other respects are equal, and
in many cases superior; and as there is one leaving
Pittsburgh tatty day, why will you run any risk, when
it I Ats con'iptetely in your own power to avoid those dis
asters.
All boats Marked dais In in the List of Arrivals and
Departures, in another part of this pltper, are supplied
with the Safety Guard.

About 12 o'clock that night, the Old Woman of the
Rocks was sitting in her miserable hovel, when
ley. rushed in and stood before her. Her appearance
wet 4 dreadfully disordered: her ceuntenanee was wild
and ghastly; and when she pet forward her hands to
clasp the face of the old woman, the latter shrunk back,
and making the sign of the cross upon her breast:—
"Mealey," she said, "I az you, in •drod's name, what's
the matther with you?"
To this adjuration the child replied by singing oat,
with startling vehemence, a verse too truly descriptive
of her own condition:
l'omig Willy caught her in his arras....
"Oh Willy AM'," she said.
" I t's over non! The weary eies
Are darkenin' in my head:
Come with me to my mother's hotath
And lay me it her knee,
The sun will set to-night. Wills,
But never rise for me!"

earth; but her head hung back, and the Wet hair falling
from about her face, discovered the axed and opus
eyes, and the bloodless lips of the fairy child;
Sally M'Cartan was sitting by the bed where the

which Thabber-na-Shie had occupied in M'CulimWs

The Old NVonian of the rocks was nearly transits
when she heard of Mealey's death] but she appeared to
have state unaccountable reluctance to go near to
Caftan's cottage, where the body lay: At last she
came; and after weeping and wailing crier:dm dead,
she went over, and kneeling beside the sink austro

The dying man rose from his bed, and glared witil
the eyes of death on his informant. The latter laid
her hand on his shoulder. "Be aisy, now, God blase

possible, "I'm sorry to see you so ill."
