He is not destitute of this world's goods, and he possesses the rare faculty ot holding onto that which be gets, lest the pangs of poverty overtake him in his de dining years. He possesses a wide knowledge of local affairs, because he is a con stant reader of the News paper, and the knowledge extracted therefrom is turned to good ac count in his own behalf. . ii an important event is soon to occur he knows ol it in advance because he has read it in this pa per.
