PUBLISHER'S NOTICES.
National Savings Bank, 165 Gen- esee street. Utica. N. Y. Among the new institutions of this county, none has grown more steadily into popular favor than the Banking institution whose name. heads this article. Ite business has grown with a rapidity unparalleled in similar institu- tions. It is only about two and a half years since it commenced business, and its deposits have reached the enormous sum of over one million dollars. It is managed by a board of Directors composed of the best business men in the country. Its officers are men of experience, and have no supe- riors as careful, successful, financial mana- gers. It is one of the ableet managed in- stitutions in the State, and is doing great good. See advertisement on page 1.
C. H. Walworth's " Bryant & Stratton " Business College, Uti- ca .- We take plaasure in calling the atten- tion of the reader, especially the young, to this worthy institution. Among the many applicants, of a similar character, for public favor, few have acquired or as justly de- served so enviable a reputation as this. Owing to the large experience of the Prin- cipal, both as a teacher and a business man, the able corps of teachers with whom he has surrounded himself and the superior facilities which are here offered for condnet- ing a school of this kind, this institution holds out inducements which those who contemplate availing themselves of course of this kind will do well to consider. Being one of the chain of colleges estab- lished in all the principal cities of the coun- try, it secures to those who take a scholar- ship there all the advantages that others of the chain can bestow. This feature is one of incalculable importance. which makes its scholarship far more desirable and ad- vantageous. As a penman, Mr. Walworth is admirably qualified to impart instruction in this important art, in which he has acquired such wonderful proficiency. To young ladies and gentlemen who desire to tit themselves for more lucrative and respon- sible positions than those they now occu- py, or could otherwise fill, we cheerfully and urgently commend a course of instruc- tion at this College. The public cease to ask "is a business education beneficial ?" and the only anxiety now is, which of the many claimants is best calculated to satisfy the public demand. Of this the reader must judge for himself or herself. We be- licve, however, from the methods pursued here, that this, being pleasantly and cen- trally located, is admirably adapted to meet this demand, and invite your attention for full particulars to Prof. Walworth's circular, opposite pages 100 and 101.

Hayden Brothers, proprietors of the Retail Woolen Mills, at Port Byron, have long been celebrated as being manu- facturers of desirable and reliable goods. The establishment was started in 1824 as a sinall custom mill. Since then the greatly increased business has called for extensive additions and improvements, which have been made; and to day their cloth is known. and worn in every county in the State and every State in the Union. They use only the best qualities of wool, entirely free from waste or shoddy, and employ only ex- perienced and careful workmen who strive to maintain the reputation their goods have ever borne among their retail cus- tomers. A year ago they opened a store at No. 29 Warren street, Syracuse, where they keep full lines of all goods of their manufacture. Farmers, mechanics and business men generally, can make good bargains by calling at the store. where Mr. J. W. Gates, the manager, will be pleased to give them good goods at advantageous terms. See card, page 18.
N. H. Galusha, Manufacturer and dealer in Stoves and all kinds of hollow ware. Miscellaneous Castings, &c., at No. 20 Court St., Rochester, is carrying on a business equaled by few in the State. He employs the most skillful workmen and the best qualities of iron in the manufacture of his goods. Prominent among the articles manufactured at this foundry may be men- tioned the celebrated first class coal or wood cooking stove, "General Grant." We have used one of them in our house during the two years past, and feel it a privilege to testify to their excellence. The pattern of the stove is plain, neat and simple, and it has all the late improvements in the way of water reservoir, heater for drying fruit or keeping food warm, &c. We think the stove quite perfect in all its parts. Mr. Galusha also mannfactures the new Coal Base Burning Parlor Stove, "Aetna," said to be one of the best in market. We refer the attention of stove dealers who desire a tip top stove to sell, or of those who desire a good one for their own use, to card on colored leaf opposite page 84.
