CilARLES M. FREEMAN. Oct. 7 1857 3 t 39 Read what the Butcher says. r U3HlE BUTCHER respectfully informss his Lkind patrons that they can, by paying the CASH, get BEEF-and that which is good--as Cheap from him as they can from the transient, sellers from the country, provided they will take a much as a quarter; in less quantities than a1 uarter, his usual prices will be charged. He hopes this proposition will meet the approbation of his old customers-those to whom he furnished BEEF in the Spring and Summer, when Beaves were cecedingly hard to find, and nch more ifllult to buy. Don't desert me now and give your reference to an occasional interloper from the country, if you wvishm me to provide for you, through the times when Stock is scarce. Ieet ye what THlE Butcher sauys and act ac cordingly. All persons indebted must make arrangements to settle up without the least hope of longer imi dttlgnce. So gentlemen be pireparedl, when you arc called on-if you fail to meet your liabilities; with the Butcher, he, like the Bank of thec State .nd many others, will be necessarily compelled to suspend operations, for a shtort time at least. Therefore, bue p)repared and let all strive to prevent tte occurrence of such a provoking catastrophe. W. W. GOOD.IAN. Oct. 14 tf d0. Notice. BY an order from W. F.
