r HE subscriber would respectfullvinform his cus
tlartra and the publicgeneraliy, tliat notwithstad
ing the u•rpracedented 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 and made in
to garments by Pitttsburgh workmen.
In consequence of the multiplication of slop shops in
oar city, filled with pawn brokers clothes and themusty,
.east offgarments of former seasons, from the eastern ci
ties, the public should be cautious to ascertain the char
meter of the establishments in which they are invited to
purchase, before they part with their money. The arti
cles- offered at several of the concerns in this city, are
the mere offals of New York and Philadelphia slop
shops, and sent out here to be palmed off on the Pitts
kirgh public. Purchasers Ethel Id be on their guard a
t these impositions, and they may rely on the fact
ithainoestaNishment that adverti=es eastern made Clo
can give as good an article or as advantageous
bargains as can be had at the "Three Big Doors."
The public will please remember that all the subscri
ipew'a garmentsare made in air 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 Doers"
hale obtained for ftu-nishing a superior style of CLO
THING in every respect, and at prices below those of
-111 g other establishment.
He would again return his thanks to his friends and

span his establishment, and believing that they have
found it to their advantage to deal with him, he would

- Slat I reply without hesitation to the interroga
tion you addressed to me in your number of the lath:
Never have I believed—never can I believe, France
to be an appanage of any one . man, any one family:
Never have I claimed any other tights than those of a
French citizen, and never shall I have any other desire
than to see the whole people; legally Convoked, freely
choosing that form of governmentwhichiithink3 Most
fitting. Being the issue of a family which owes its
elevation to the suffrages of the nation, I should belie
my origin and my nature, and even common sense;
did I not admit the sovereignty of the people to be the
fundamental basis of every political organization. My
anterior actions and words have been in accordance
with this sentiment. If I have not been understood;
it is bemuse defeats are condemned Without explane:

this was on the breach. I had a high ambition, but
it was openly avowed—the ambition of rallying around.
my plebeian name all the partisans of natidoal sovej
reignty —all those who desired glory and freedom. Is
it for those who hold democratic opinions to complaint
of me? Is it for France to punish me? Believe; sir,
that whatever may be the future lot reserved for me, it ,
shall never be said of me that, during exile or captivi
ty, I have nothing learned, nothing forgotten. Accept;

It will be recollected that, in his (lefenee befoie the
Chamber of Peers. on the occasion of the Boulogne
affair, the Prince avowed the position of the poll:ictil
sovereignty of the people as here declared. He re- -
garded himself then, as now, 29 the victim of a politie
cal, not of a judicial ocncierrinaticre:

of this city, died in the State Prison at Sing Sing, ort

It will Le remembered by our renders, that she was
convicted at the Circuit Court in April, 1837, of the
murder of her own chile, and was sentenced to be hung
on the 2d of June following, but which wal,- on the
petition of a large number of oUr citizens, Commutes/

She said She had made many effort,: to get a place,
but in vain, as no one would have her on account of

always been accustomed to living in respectable fami

PRINTING
Although, perhaps, the most iritporttiat discovery of
of modern times, at least towards the enlightenment
of the human race, yet There tire hut few acquainied
with the details of the printing business. We were
not a little amused, the Other day, at one of our busi
ness ndvertisers, wlidse intelligence and industry hare
so increased his btilness, that he wished to fill more
than his proportion of the "Organ" with Itertise-
Enents. Upon being told that he had alretidy his right
ful quantity- of matter in the paper, and that he could
not overreach his proportion, without paying an ad
ditional price, "zounds!" says he, very pettishly, "I
slim? I base to start another paper/ the cost of adeerti- ,
sing is entirely too much, [lnd I will publish a paper
and fill it with advertising myself," But on being told
of the expense of publislitriga paper, he very wisely
opened his eve?, and cooly observed, "You May add
another "square" to my ac-c!
This reminds us ofan old country school masterovhe
having an old Arithmet:c very much the worse tot
"wear and tear," and whose pages, probably, be bail
conned better than any other, and knowing oar voce•
tion, applied to us "to print him one," that he "would
pay us a dollar," and he "had no doubt if we would
print more, we could sell half a dozen in his school S r
Another case is related to us actually to haw taken
place inn country printing office down east. An old
lady, who had been in the habit of reading her Bible
from "time out of mind" (for what we know) all at
once found her eye sight to fail so that she could not read
the "small print of her Bible any longer." So she
bundled up her knitting, posted off to the printing of
fice, entered, and calmly seriii.ig herself with her knit
ting in hand, told the printer that she wanted him try
"print a Bible in large type immediately. and that as
she had brought her knitting along, she could wait for
it."—St. Louis Organ.
