Two dozen chickens were forwarded last night, but the pric offered did not warrant the ship ment of the eggs. Moisture. Bain, rain, rain! lttin in sprinkles, rain in showers and rain in torrents! Such has been the order of things for several days, much to the hindrance cf thefarmers, to the annoyance of those whose business compelled them to be out ol doors and to the disappointment of excursionists whose promised pleas ures have been damped no. soaked out by tbe almost incessant rains.

St. John, the beloved disciple, says (in the Saviour's words) 'There are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word and the Holy Ghost, and these three are One " and in anothei place He commanded his disciples to baptise all nations "in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of tho Holy Ghost' and on these two sayings the doctrine of a Triune God is principally based. There are 25 Sundays after Trinity this year. . Hew Uniforms.

Postponed. The excursion of the Pleasure Club of W. S. F. E. Co., which was an nounced tor last night, and for which we predicted favorable weather, was postponed on account of the rain until next Monday night, when it will assur edly take place, if the showers will permit. Our prediction ot fine weather for last night was written at about 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon when the skies were bright and there were indi cations of a beautiful night, but the article was read by some of our readers at a time when tbe rain was pouring down in torrents, and we can 'imagine the appearance ot supreme disgust upon their faces as they muttered, "Humph! this looks like it; don't it?" You Must Have Uonlidence. Clothing of ail kinds is bought large ly upon confidence, for few people know the value of merchandise. In buying Clothes a man wants to know that he is gettiug a reliable article, and is naturally suspicious of untried deal ers. The plain, safe rule is to go where you know honest goods are sold upon exact statements of kind aud equality, tho unanimous verdict at Shrier's. This community knows tbat Shrier's prices are always the lowest, the best for the least money fort to build up a permanent clothing business is rewarded by an appreciative public. Suiuek, the Old Reliable Cloth ier, 114 Market street. t markets and his thorough knowledge of the business enables him to sell always to advantage. St. James' Park.
