LITERARY.
Sx. ELUO; a Novel bj' Augusta J. Evaus. Now Yo
Carleton, Publisher. 1867. For Bale by John Eus?
King street.
We have not, in a long tiuio, perused a work
fiction that has interested us as mitch as St. Eb
Wo have read, before, books as fascinatii
and, perhaps, books as learned; but have ne'
found tho two united as in the present work. 1
havo read moral and religious novels, plenty
them, and wo have also read the sentimental a
tho sensational. St. Elmo belongs to none
these. It is sui generis-uniting good points fr<
thom all, skii?nlly woven toge'"".er by the hand
genius, and endowed by that magic wand with
air of life few could bestow upon such a cumbi
some mass of learned material
Miss EVANS is unquestionable a most l-emai
i able woman. When she mado her debut, sor
I eight or nino years ago, by the publication of Be
lah, Rho created a great sensation in literary c
cles, and the discerning every where at once pi
dieted for her a brilliant future. Macar?a, pu
lished during the latter part of the . war, disa
pointed her admirors; it was a story deeply tingi
with the sadness of the times in which it w
written, and is, perhaps, moro full of tho defects
bo found in all the writings of our authoress, thi
either of her other two books.
Although the authoress deprecates adverse cri
icism, and devotes two labored chapters to th
??bject. adopting a trick by no means new, of a:
ticipating every possible objection to her wor
and refuting the same,-she has really nothing ?
complain of. The first critical journals of tl
country have spoken of St. Elmo in terms of moi
unexpected praise. It should bo remembered thi
she laid herself open to criticism to a remarkable di
gree even in Beulah. It was tho first production of
young and unknown authoress, published with ht
name in full, who laid cit.im to an amount of lean
ing, very unusual in novelists, and altogether s
among female writers, The book, although gil
ing abundant proof of merit, was not withor.
many faults, which, however, the consid?r?t
critic felt sure would be corrected in tho futur
writings of tho authoress.
Beulah, accordingly, was widely read, and it
''learning" as widely condemned. People tailed
unkindly about the authoress, and charged he
with making a parado of her erudition. Macarit
met with the same fate. When St. Elmo was an
noimced .the novel-reading world was on tho qu
vive, to see what it was like. They Itnow Mis:
EVANS possessed great power in constructing ai
interesting narrative, and were perfectly willing ti
onter tho golden regions of cloudiand, with her ai
cicerone. The more judicious of her friends anr
admirers wero naturally curious to seo the im
provement wrought by years of study, and by tin
experience of several additional years of life. W?
hr -?>; now read Si. Elmo, and while wo place ii
above any cotemporary work of fiction proceed ii
America, and read it with the greatest oleu.^ire
we cannot in candor withhold ?ensure, vhoic w<
think it deserved.
Miss EVANS has cultivated her fart.)', porb-''.ps
over much. A duo adm'xture of the reid and idea!
is requisite to constitute a perfect work of art. Ic
"St. Elmo," tho lattor greatly predominates. Thc
pictures she paints are fine creations, life-like, too,
in a certain sonso, but not faithful to nature.
They are very attractive, indeed, but they are na?
ture idealized. In this she can find precedent in
DICKENS, the greatest of living writers of fiction,
who, invariably in ever}' one of tho numerous
characters be has given to tho world, improves on
the homeliness of nature. >
"Edna Earl," tho heroine of this book, is alto?
gether, perhaps, the most remarkable character
known, either in history or fiction. Lady JANE
CTREV was a tyro, and tho "Admirable" CRICHTON,
i very ordinary Cliricbton, when compared with
"Edna." This young lady, daughter of a carpen?
ter, and grand-daughter of a blacksmith, born in
the vicinity of Chattanooga, early lost her parents,
ind at the age of twelve her grand-father died, the
[astDf her kin. She then, young as she is, deter?
mines to mako a support, in order to educate her?
self as a teacher; and with this view Bots ont for
Columbus, Ga., where she hopes to find traplo)
uent in a certain factory. Tho car runs off the
rack, there is a grand smash-up, and little "Edna"
rastaincd a Berious injury. Hore she is found by
'Mrs. Murray,"a lady of wealth, who lived at a
most gorgeous palace, along, the Georgia State
Road, near Chattanooga. Said palace was known
is Le Bocage, and in reading Miss EVANS' deecrip
;ion of it we constantly forget wc aro not reading
if the Garden of th 3 HESPEEXDES. Hore Edna pur?
ines her studies under the direction of tho clorgy
nan of the neighborhood, Mr. Hammond. Ero
tho reaches eighteen summers she has mastered
he omni scibue. The Talmud was familiar to her
LB wero the writings of ZOROASTER. Tho Organon
>f Aristotle formed her light roading. She
vrbte a brilliant and most learned monograph,
phi ch was published in the leading literary maga
ine of New York, entitled: "Who struck tho Mar?
jie Gods of Greece," to prove that Alcibiades Avas
LO t the iconoclast he has BO long been considered.
?1 this before she was nineteen.
Miss EVANS likes not to have her learning found
ault with. But no one can read her books with
>ut running foul of these loamed snags. We will
tot say that sho has gleaned it all out of thc
mcyclopaedias, a charge sho seems specially to
:esont. Wo will only remark, in tho first place,
.hat the greatest of all a- is to conceal art.
[yarning is no reproach, but an ostentatious dis
Dky ia no.1! to bo commended. Any one who has
n his own person climbed the steep hill of knowl?
edge,-plodding before the break of day, and
painfully bonding over the blurred page by the
lim and feeble glare of tho midnight lamp,-ac?
quires a veneration for the ancient treasures, and
speaks not of them as lightly as does our au?
thoress. There aro plenty of learnod men, and
there have been learnod women also, but ladios
lo not generally graduate in the abstrusa sciences,
or discuss nico points in Greek history with Groto,
at the age of seventeen or eighteon. The acquisi?
tion of learning is tho work of a fifo time, and thc
same man is raroly an adept in classic and scho?
lastic lore, and, at tho same time, the writer of
brilliant romances. Wo know BULWER will bo
quoted as an exception. But his learning is in
the back ground, ae compared with ST. ELMO.
WALTER SCOTT also know much of many things,
but seldom obtruded his knowledge on his read?
ers. Nay, ho was himself remarkably humble on
the subject of his acquirements. But we have
said enough, and moro than enough, on this
topic.
"Edna Earl" is doubtless the beau ideal of Miss
E.'s type of truo and perfect womanhood, and the
character ?3 woU drawn, and fascinates the reader,
as Edna is said to have fascinated all who came in
contact with her. St. Elmo, the hero, is per?
haps still less true to nature than Edna-alto?
gether ideal if not impossible,-both as to his vices
and to his virtues, and sudden aud radical re?
formation. But such aB ho is, he will bo readily
acknowledged King in every fonder female heart.
The aim of the book is a noble one,-no less
than to teach woman her proper sphere and mis?
sion; and although tho model is somewhat too
highly drawn, and beyond the reach of tho great
majority, etil1 it is one wo can have no hesitation
in recommending.
Miss EVANS is a great admirer of JonN BUSKIN,
and sends forth her book with a beautiful motto
extracted from his writings, which we reproduce,
as best exhibiting the object of the work under
consideration :
"Ah, the true rule is-a true wife in her hus?
band's house is his servant; it is ia his heart that,
she is gueon. Whatever of the best ho can con?
ceive, it is her part to be; whatever of the highest
he can hope, it is hers to promise; ali that is dark
in him she must purge into purity; all that is fail?
ing in him she must strengthen "into truth; from
her, through all the worlds clamor, ho muBt win
his praise; in her, through all thc world's surface,
he must find his peace."
M?BS EVANS has made her mark in literature,
and we hope she will write again and often. Al?
ready, her publishers inform us, 20,000 copies of
St. Elmo have boon sold, and more are being
printed. The secret of Miss E.'s success is that
she is atnie, whole-souled woman, and finds, even
for her ideals, a ready appreciation and sympathy
from myriads of her countrywomen. Never before
could America boast of such brilliant succoas on
the part of a female writer.
MARGARET MAITLAND OP SUNNYSIDE ; by Mrs. Olyphant,
author of "Zaitlee," &c.
Mrs. OLYPHANT is a favorite author of ours. She
is always instructive and charming, and in none of
her works more so than in the one now before us.
tho quaint, simplo language in which the story is
told has a peculiar fascination. There is a won?
derful strength and beauty in tho Scotch idiom,
and here we have it in all its purity.
Mrs. Margaret 3Iaitland is a Scotch lady, belong?
ing to the middle chas of society, daughter of the
former Minister ol' Pasturelands, and sister to the
ono with whom we form acquaintance in the pages
of her history. She and her servant, Jenny, are
both perfect in their way, finely drawn types of
(hoir respectivo grades, each using tho language
Buitcd to hor sphere of lifo in full perfection.
Indeed, it is hard to find a better picture of
Scottish life and manners, certainly not a moro
pleasing one, than is here presented to us. Grace
Maitland, the heroine, is educated by Mi's. Marga?
ret Maitland, and though bearing the same name,
is no relative. She and Mary Maitland, the minis?
ter's daughter, Mrs. Margaret Maitlands niece, are
beautiful, natural characters-not strong-minded
wornon, but pure, gentle and true; such as shed a
soft, sweet influence over all that como in contact
with thom; such as we sometimos have the privi?
lege of meeting in real lifo, as well as in tho papes
of fiction; such as it is good to be associated with,
even in the realms of imagination. -
There is not much piot, but quito enough to
maleo tho boole interesting. No thrilling excite?
ment-no murders-no bigamies-no wonderful
mysteries-all is natural and peaceful; and for this
reason the book is doubly, welcome. It comes to
us like an oasis amid the siroccos, which consti?
tute the fashionable literature of the day, and wo
recommend all who wish something truly refresh?
ing-something that will make them feel, when
they lay the book down, that they have parted
from good and genial company, to read this book.
When tho book first carno out, it was vory much
admired, but it has been out of print for some
years, and is now republished in a very attractive
form by W. J. POOLEY, New York, and is to bo
found at S. G. COURTENAY'S book store, in Broad
street, through whom we have received our copy.
THE OLD GUARD, a Monthly Magazine, devoted to
Literature, Science and Art, and the Political Princi?
ples of 1776 and 1787. February.
The February number opens with an able and
exhaustive article from its editor, entitled "Con?
gress, not a Congress," which every Democrat and
Republican in the land ought to read. W. GIL
MOBE SIMMS' story of "Joscelyu," grows in inter?
est, and promises to bo intensely interesting.
JOHN ESTEN COOKE'S second article on "The Battle
of Port Republic," is more sketchy than tho nrst
one on "Manassas." The story of "Alverly" is well
done. Tho "Capitol of Washington," from the
grnphic pen of JOHN R. THOMPSON, formerly editor
of thc SouUtern Literary Messenger, is a dashing
description of thc present condition of that struc?
ture. Prof. T.'s description of tho "Alhambra" is
almost equal to IRVING'S. The poetry in the num?
ber is good, especially THOMAS DUNN ENGLISH'S
' 'Charge by the Ford." Tho Book Table and Edi?
tor's Table will attract attontion.

THE ALABAMA CLAIM?.
Referring to tho Alabama claims, tho London
Times of tho 8th of January says:
Wo havo authority to stat . that in reply to a com?
munication roccived from thc Government of the
United States, lie . Majesty's Minister at Washing?
ton has oecn iustr lcd tb ascertain whether that
Government is prepared to accept the principio of
arbitration upon the pending differences arising
out of *he lalo civil war, provided an agreement
can be come to" as to the pointa to which such ar?
bitration should apply.
Tho Times, of thc 9th, says :
lt is now for tho Government of the United
States to say whether they will accede to tho prin?
ciple ol'arbitration, thc preciso terina and subjects
of which are properly reserved for subsequent dis?
cussion. Ol' course the depredations of thc Ala?
bama are tho real sources of disput e; and tho great
question for tho arbitrator will DC to what extent,
if any, Great Britain is responsible, legally or mor?
ally/under circumstances to bo duly sot forth in
the case, for tho consequences of her escapo from
tho Mersey. The law officers of tho two countries,
if they could meet for consultation, would proba?
bly succeed, in a very few hours, in framing a
statement perfectly satisfactory to both. There
is, indeed, no controversy about the facts. The
jontrevcrsv is about tho" principles which Bhould
je applied "to them. Here the amplest discretion
should, upon every ground, bo loft to tho arbitra
;or.
Tho Times believes that Lord Stanley, in making
i proposal all bul identical with that which Lord
Ltussell declined, will be supported by pablic opin
on, and, further, that his moral courago in taking
i COUTPO repugnant to a falso but plausible Bonti
nentof national dignity, will bo rewarded by ?
success. I
The Telegraph's account is as follows : . i
It is understood that her Majesty's Ministers .
?avo expressed their readiness to deal with tho !
?laitns put foi ward by tho Government of Washi?
ngton in rospect to tho Alabama by referring the
natter to arbitration. In so doing they rescind
he refusal of Lord Russell to admit tho idea of ar
litratinn; but at tho same time thoy recognize 1
hoso diflicultics in thc way of any such sottloment
vhich promptod tho decision of tho late Minister
br Foreign Aflairs. Of course, while tho principio
>f arbitration is accepted, tho acceptance must bo
lubjcct to tho condition, that tho points referred
ihall bo found admissible; and the Government of
ho United States will now havo to define what aro
he exact ?SBUCS on which it claims rcdross tor al
eged injuries.
PARLIAMENTABY EEFOBM.
All tho conservative joiirnols, in their new year's
irticles, indicate reform as one of tho things to bo
lone this year.. It may, therofore, be sot down as
:ertain that Lord Derby's Government will bring
n a bill to amend Parliamentary representation.
Che Liberal papers advise tho pcoplo to be on their
*uard against deception, as it is likoly some bill
vhich will confirm tho powor of the aristocratic
3las6os, while professing to extoud tho franchise,
ivill bo introduced. Tho Morning Post, of the 2d
(Tory), suggests a possibility that othor legislation
nay impedo progross in the matter of reform, and
suggests tho pacification of Ireland and the in?
crease of tho army as among pressing matters.
THE CABINET.
Tho first Cabinet meeting preparatory to the as?
sembling of Parliament was hold on the 6th inst.
Ct has confirmed that gravo differences had existed
n the Cabinet on the subject of military estimates,
md it was believed that these divergences of
iriow8 had boen adjusted by a compromise which
ii'ould involve a small incroso of military expondi
nre. It was also given out that the question of a
Reform Bill had not boen absolutely sottlod, but
that thc Ministry was likoly to "proceed by roso
ution," unless tho temper of the House of Com?
mons should bo manifestly in favor of immediate
iction.

PESTH, January 3.-In his answer to the con?
gratulations offered to him on New Year's day, M.
Doak said:
"At the beginning of tho last year, wo know that
a grave duty weighed upon our consciences, but
none of us foresaw that beforo long that duty
would become as heavy as it is now. So many '
misfortunes, so many political and material mise?
ries, havo overwhelmed us, that it is difficult for
us to avoid thom completely. I do not Bay that
every hope i.j vanished, but a solution is*more
difficult now than hist year. We do all that can bc
done. Wo go as far as wo can go, and wh3ro duty
bids us lo go. However, I ask you but ono thing
continue, to have confidengp in me."

on tho opening of the new year. Tho Emperor, in
reply to the address from thc spokesman of tho
deputation, expressed hopes that thc New Year
would afford, by tho blessings of poaco. some com?
pensation for thc losses which had befallen thc
country, and that in Hungary the sure basia of

might, by the display of mutual confidence, bo
more apecdily and lastingly strengthened.

BERLIN, January "il.-Thc party of Progress in?
tend to br.ng forward a bili in thc Chamber of
Deputies demanding that the members of the
North German Parliament ahould receive a salary,
and that their travelling expenses should be re?
paid to thora.
It is positively asserted that Heir von Savignv
will be appointed President of the Federal Com?
mission.
Russia.
A St. Petersburg telegram, of January 5, says :
Three ukases concerning Poland, and bearing
date the 19th December, have boon issued to-day.
The first introduces the Russian system into the
financial administration of Poland, and publishes
a provisional financial direction at Warsaw under
the control of tho Finance Minis ry at St. Peters?
burg. Tho definitive constitution of thia office as
a permanent finance direction ia reserved. Tho
second ukase regulates, the postal administration
of Poland, and subordinates it to the Russian Min?
istry of Posts and Telegrapua. The thiid decree
simplifies the general Polish administration. It
orders that from the ISfih of January, Poland shall
be divided into five instead of ten provincial gov?
ernments, and eigWy-fivo districts, and that of?
fices for the payment of taxes shall be establish?
ed on that day in the governments and districts
according to the new division of tho now kingdom.
"It also grants fuller powers to the Governors,
and orders the formation of local bodies of
guards.
"The sentence passed upon the. Polish exiles
who took part in the revolt m Siberia having been
confirmed by the Emperor, have been carried into
effect. Of the seven condemned to death, four
have been shot, and thc remainder sent oft* to bo
kept at hard labor, together with thoso who wore
sentenced to the latter punishment. Corporal pun?
ishment has boen remitted in all cases."
Tho London Times says thc Imperial decrees
abolish all that remained of Pol-ind as a separate
kingdom. Russia baa had her will, and Polish na?
tionality CCL'-SOS to exist.
Tho Invalide Eusse, commenting upon tho ukases
relating i Poland, Bays that the object of these de?
crees is the practical union and equalization of the
regulations existing in Poland with those in force
in Russia. "Administrative assimilation," it adda,
"will enablo the Government to extend to Poland
all the improvements which have been introduced
in Russia. '
It is not true that Marshal do Borg, Lieutenant
of the Emperor in Poland, will be merely Governor
of Warsaw in consequence of tho new measures
introduced in that kingdom. Marshal do Berg
will continue to exercise tho functions of Viceroy
in Poland as heretofore, and he continues to enjoy
the full confidence of his sovereign, while his rule
seems to bo fully appreciated in Poland itself.

REPORTS FROM CANDIA.
ATHENS, December 29.-Mustapha Pasha, on the
9th of Decorubcr, bavins: traversed the village of
Alikiano (which was " pillaged bv his troops),
attacked tho advanced positions of* tho Christians
at Kates, and, after five hours' hard fighting, tho
Turco-Egyptian army was obliged to fall back on
Laki, suffering a loss of 500 to OOO men. ' It is af?
firmed that, in traversing the villages of Orthormi
and Coraco-Scafida, tho Turkish troops massacred
thirty women and childron. In tho villages of
Galala and Skinez, near Canoa, two peaccablo
Christians have been put to the sword.
The Governor of Canoa has informed tho Con?
suls, by circular, of tho blockade of Crete. . Tuc
United Stato3 Consul replied that he could not
consider it legal, since it waa ncA effective. Two
thousand women and children dying of hungor and
cold wore on the scashoro in. Selino waiting for
8ome Europe tn men-of-war to save them. A Tnrk
iali frigate made its appearance and began to fire
on them, killing a few and wounding others. Thc
number of tho Times newspaper containing a
leading article advising Turkey to voluntarily gtvo
up Candia and thoreby aottlo the. Eastern question
for a time, was publicly crowned by tho people
last night.
P. S.-Tho frigate Grand Admiral has. j nat arriv?
ed at thc Piraras from Candia, bringing 1200 refu?
gee women and childron whom it has aaved.
NEGOTIATIONS.
A Berlin telegram states that negotiations have
recontly taken place between tho Governments of
France and England relative to the differonccs
which havo arison between Greece and Turkey,
and that the two Governments havo resolved not
to interfere in thc matter, excepting in tho case of
intervention on the part of Russia. Thia latter
essentiality ia not considered probable.
Tho Evening Poat (evening edition of the official
Vienna Gazette) declares cortain statements con?
tained in a recent article of tho Memorial Diplo?
matique to bo false, and aova Austria has.nindo no
proposal to the Signitary Powers of tho treaty of
Pans, but haa only addrcsaed a confidential dis?
patch to the Austrian Embaseador in Paria, in
atructmg him to open tho way for an exchange of
views between the French and Austrian Cabinets
on the questions at iBsue in tho East.
PROM WASHJINGTON.
SUr-RAOE IN THE DIBTRICT.
Tho Mayor of Georgetown, Mr. TIcnp' Addison,
is the first person to move practically in tho mat
tor of carrying out tho details of thc recent Suf?
frage Act for thia Diatrict. He iasuos notice to?
day "to all tho malo inhabitants of thia town,
above tho ago of twenty-one years, both white and
colored, that tho Mayor and Board of Aldermen of
thia town will bo in open session, in thc Mayor's
office, between the hours of 10 A. M. and 3 P. M.,
on tho 23d, 21th and 25th days of January, 1867,
for the preparation of a list of thc names of all
uursons who may 'ju?L'e to bo qnnlitiod to vote in
the soveral voting precincts of tula town, and for
the reception of evidence of tho qualifications of
persons claiming the right to vote in all elections
in this town under tho provisions of a late act of
Congress.-Wash. Corr. ?. Y. Times, Jan.'ll.
SUPREME COURT. ' -
I leam that tho decision of tho Supremo Court
in the tost oath casca has received a very narrow
construction at the Treaaury. It ia. for tho pre?
sent at least, hold by hcada ol'.Bureaus in that De?
partment that the decision does not embrace oili
cors of tho Government, and that no salari?e can
bo (brawn by officials who have boon unable to talco
the oath proscribed by tho Act of July 25,18??2.
Prom thia it would seem that it is thought, in sotno
quarters that, howovcr plainly tho reasoning of a
court might apply to other than the very caaos be?
fore it, tho special matter decided only should bo
considered aa Bottled. Doubtless this question
will re?oive the early consideration of the Attorney
General, when, it ia to bc hoped, a different rilling
will bc uniformly adopted. The Government itself
ia evidently a siiffercr from thc limited number of
peraons, under existing circumstances, from
among whom they arc compelled to choose the offi?
cers connected with thc revenue and postal Kys?
toms in thc Southern Slates.

* AID ron TIIE SOUTH.-The New York Tribune an?
nounces that a practical organization for thc rolk-f
of tho suffering at thc South baa boen formed in
that city, under management of ladies of tho
highest character and position, with no refcrcueo
whatever lo political relations. Steps will bo taken
so to co-oporatc with General Howard as to avoid
waste or misdirection in tho distribution of the
supplies, and Commodore Garrison has offered the
use ot a steamer to convoy contributions to mid?
point which may be designated. The Now York
World has a notice apparently of tho same move?
ment, which says:
"No political color whatever ia to be given to this
movement, it will have but one object, the sav?
ing of them that aro ready to perish, and will bo
administered in but one spirit, thc spirit of that
charity which blcasca both them who receive and
them who give. Tho ladies are encouraged to
their good work by Mayor Hoffman, by the Catho?
lic Archbishop of New Yorn, by Bishop Potter; by
Dr. Tyng, and by a number nf other eminent lay?
men and clergymen. They have taken a central
office at No. 14 Bond street, whore supplie* of dry
goods, clothing, &c, may bo uont from 9 A.M. to

DEAR Sin : This is to certify that I was Liken with the
dyspepsia a year ago last Mareil, nnd, for a period of
eight months, was one of tho most miserable creatures
yon ever beheld, not being ublc cither to cat, drink or
Hleep, and was compelled to walk thc lloor incessantly.
I was nearly deprived of my reason, and hone had entire?
ly left mo, all thc efforts inado for my recovery having
proved fruitless.
By thc first of November, 1SC5,1 had become sn weak
aud feeble that I could scarcely stand alouc. and, to ali
appearance, would soon die. At Uris lime (having road
your advertisement), my wife prevailed upon me lo irv
your Ritters. A bottle was procured, and, strange to pay,
I soon commenced recovering. I have taken lour bottled
ami am enjoying ns good health nov: as could be expected
for one of my age (about sixty years). I h ive nn doubt
that it was your Bitters alone, under Divine Providence,
that effected this wonderful cure.

From SAMUEL HENRY DICKSON, M. D., Professor
Practico of Physic, Jefferson Medical College, Phils- ?
delphia, formerly of Charleston, S. C.:
PHILADELPHIA, November 10,1805.
I havo been for a year or more past in the nabit of
taking tho water of tho "Excelsior" Spring of Saratoga. .,
Accustomed during the great portion of my invalid met'
to use the different waters of the several fountains which :
boll up along that remarkable valley, dependent, indeed? !
upon them tor much of the comfort I enjoy, I am satis- r
ned that tho Excelsior Water ia as well adapted ts any
other among thom, if uot more so, to the purposes for
which they are generally employed. It is very agreeable,
strongly impregnated with the carbonic add, lively and
sparkling. * * * Icm heartily and conscientiously
recommend lt to all who ucod a gentle cathartic and - r
diuretic. SAMUEL HENRY DICKSON, M. D.
The Water, is put up in Pi ut and Quart bottles, and.1 .
packed in good order for shipping, Pints in boxea ot \
four dozen each, and Quana in boxes of two dozen each.
AU orders addressed to A. R. LAWRENCE k CO., Sara- '
