THE DECATUR DEMOCRAT HY UOTH dk er WHINS. Friday, September 21, BS3. .JU.'l ■■■... l-j.. .. ■•- ■■-tj The jxi»t office department has selected as the color for the new fourcent i.r double stamp a shade of green somewhat darker than that in which the prssent three cent stamp is printed. As the three eeut stamp will be retired from circulation, no errors are likely to arise from similarity of color. The new stamp bears a profile likeness of At.drew Jackson and is quite handsome in design. The distribution to postmasters of the new two-cent stamps began on September 1, and is believed that everything will be in readiness for the change of letter postage on October 1. O.ne week ago last Monday was the 100th anniversary of the signing of the treaty of Paris by which the independence of the United States was recognised by Great Britain. The definitive treaty was signed at the rooms of Mr. Hartley, at the hotel, D York, Paris, F rance, on the 3rd day of September, 1783. Mr. Hartley acted on the part of Great Britain, and Benjamin Franklin, John Adams, John Jay and Henry Laurens were the commis sionerson the part of the United States. Representatives of France and Spain were also present. When the treaty was signed there was great rejoicing in this country and also in f.-ance. Os course Great Britain did not like to lose so important a colony, but it could not bo helped. We venture to say that not one out of a hundred know these facts or the occasion might have been celebrated. DECATC'R. Her Bualnea. latereata — Our Prowiurnl aad WhatTfeer Doing It is with pleasure, this week, that we commence a series of articles, which are the result of a look through our city and a visit among our business men, who courteously invited the Democrat scribe to drop in, examine their stock and publish the facts to our many readers. In doing so, we shall aim to do each firm in its special branch of business justice, by presenting them as we found them. Decat’-r to-day is enjoying a reputation for being one of the liveliest and most sturdy little cities in the state. From its infancy it has steadily grown and has ever been an interested watcher on the banks of the historic St. Marys. To an observing person, who makes proper distinctions the growth ot a city is as much an evolution of order and beauteous development as is the growth of a flower, The plain practical eye, not the aesthetic one, can see the brick and mortar majesty and beauty of our young and growing city, rearing its head proudly among the many others of importance in our great state. Decatur is now, and always will be, a thing of beauty to the observer, as well as a joy to North eru Indiana, within whose boundaries she is situated. The morning chorus of the steam wbisl.ies from her factories and the many trains passing to and fro, the activity of her energetic business men, the school and church bells ringing, the rattle of the wagons and buggies are till positive evidences of a fast growing town. Like the silvery trace of a fast Tailtug meteor, as it sweeps through the heavens, commanding the gaze of a mu.lt’tude, so with the great ChicagoI Atlantic railway as it comes in from the boundless northwest burdened with the products of the soil. The Grand Rapids and the T., C. & St. L. following in the van second to none that course their way through Indiana. All of these lines mean great improvement, and in connection with the fertility of the soil of this county, our honest, hard working and upright citizens, we ean have no fear of a decline. In connection with what we have said of our place, we wish to speak personally of some of our business men, and the first on our list, who bailed our reporter was—c. T JOORWIX, our popular artist. The wealth of a nation, or rather of its people, is best demonstrated by its luxuries from the plain to the artistic. As wc roll back the billowy tide of time and unroll the mouldering records, we find that art among the more refined and cultured of all nations, had its admirers. Visiting the photograph gallery of our accommodating and skilled photagrapher, Mr. €. T. Dorwiu and after listening for some time to a detailed account of the new and better processes own in ! use tor taking pictures, we were much surprised al the rapid advancement made in this direction within the past tew years. Mr. Dorwiu s place of business is on the corner of fiecoad and Adams streets. Ue first enter his reeepticn room, which in point of elegance is fitted up equal to any photo-! graph gallery in this part of the state. Inis room is finely furnished while the walls aie handsomely decorated iu the moat tasteful manner with photographs, from the portrait in ludia ink or erayon to the small card or cabinet work, all «peoiniens of work executed by Mr. Dorwiu. There cm also be seen a large and beautiful collection of steel engravings, chromes, artitvpcs. etc. Behind this is the ope rati ig room

' which is supplied with the Ittest im- , proved camera, while we see several I backgrounds, representing interior and ■ exterior scenes, posing chairs, pyramid rock, balustrade, cottage and bay windows, together with all the other accessories. The gentleman informs I us that he is using the dry plate, or instantaneous process, which is especially adapted for children. la the operating room the light is goad and every necessity is perfect to make good work, iu the way. of bringing out the features of the face, expression of the eye, I lights, shadows, and every miner de- ' tail is made clear and distinct, with that roundness and smoothness so much admired by lovers of the art. Mr. Dorwiu handles pianos and organs and has now on hand a splendid assortment, also makes and furnishes all kinds of picture frames. It is useless for us to say any thing further of this gentleman, as he has furnished the people of this county with pictures for many years and has always and is now enjoying a large patronage at their hands. NIBLICK, CRAWFORD i SONS. With the advance made during the past ten years in manufacturing in different branches cf industry, there is no class that has improved more rapidly than that of ready-made clothing. The time was, and that only a few years ago, when a business man, ort s e gent who considered himself well dressed, could not be seen wearing ready-made suit of clothes. The reason of this was that they were made of inferior material poorly cut and still more miserably made. Now this obstacle is removed, and we ean step into a first-class clothing store and select a suit of clothes, manufactured of good doth, cut and made in the latest and most approved fashion. A reliable house o v this kind in Deratur is the oldest firm in the city, that of Niblick, Crawford & Sons, corner of Second and Monroe streets. They occupy one of the finest room Q in town, being 25x100 feet. Here our reporter saw a mammoth stock of clothing for men, boys and children. It will be the desire of this firm to place before their customers the newest and best goods and sell them at such prices as will induce their customers to call again and this fact will be their gain and the peoples’ benefit. Any thing in tjre way of men’s wear can be had, from the finest dress suit to the fashionable business suit, cut and made in the latest style down to the commonest working garment. A specialty is made of fine hats and in the stock of all the nobby styles of the season are noticeable, together with hats, caps, of all orades for old and young. In the furc * nishing goods department we also noticed the latest novelties in shirts, collars, cuff's, handkerchiefs, ti s, gloves, etc. Every style of trunks and valises are kept, and the stock embraces all grades from the. cheap to the more expensive. In short, this mammoth stere is filled to overflowing with seasonable goods of ail kinds,and from the general appearance of the store, we are convinced that the proprietors well know just what the people want, and having served them so acceptably in years past, they are known as a reliable firm to deal with, and their increasing sales are a reward of their honesty and integrity. A. BOLTHOrSE. Keeping pace with other branches of business in Decatur we notice that of boots and shoes, which are to-day taking a leading position among the different branches of business. Not only has this advance been made in extent, but in the style of the neat work produced, which proclaims to the world the progress of American mechanism and industry. Even the heavy, coarse boot to-day presents a neatness in fit and finish, combined with comfort ario durability, that was unseen only a few years ago. Our reporter stepped into the large boot and shoe establishment of our popular boot and shoe man, Mr. A llolthouse whose place of business is on the west side of Second street, and while looking through his large stock of goods, was led to believe that few houses in this part of the state carry a more general stock of goods in this line than this gentleman. His salesroom is now 17x80 feet, and one would suppose from the stock carried that he was making prepat ation to sh e all of Adams county. In ladies and misses fine shoes wc see all the leading makes, front the tine aud neat kid dress shoe and men s serviceable walking shoe in front lace and button to the heavier wear for ordinary purposes, together with slippers of every style and grade. A full and complete line of wen and boys bools and shoes, heavy and fine, are always kept on hand. In the children’s department you can find ail kinds of fine and fancy ’shoes, ranging in size from the infant’s to the grown child's wear. A specialty is made of French & Hall s tine shoes for men, which for style, fit and durability, are known the land over to be tfie best fur the money in the market. You will see a large lice of Stribles Co.'s goods, which have a reputation everywhere for containing first-class stock, and honest workmanship second to none in any market in the west. The manufacturing depart me nt is an important feature of the establishment and Mr. Holthouse being a practical

workman and a superior cutter, is the right man to conduct it, Several skilled workmen arc employed, and the reputation of the work they have I ' turned out has gained an enviable rep- ' utatiou for this establishment. Mr. I Holthouse follows no one in his line of : • business, but always trios to keep in the ’ front ranks, aiming t secure substan tia! goods for his cus: amors, and with twenty-one years of practical experi- > ence in this line, has uade him favorably known to all the people of the j town and county. JOHN WELFLEY. In the elements of business interests, which make up the general traffic of any town or city. Groceries rank ' as the foremost staples, their actual sales being the greatest, arising from ■ a common necessity to all. In this department of trade we find the genial 1 and accommodating groceryman, Mr. John Welflcy, whose place of business I is on Second street, opposite the court ! house, having a salesroom 22x70, ev- ; er J inch of which is packed full of gooes. We notice that some six kinds of teas are kept aud ten different kinds of coffees giving the customer an opportunity to select any grade he may desire. Ycu will also find ail grades , of sugars, and in spices and in flavor- ' ing extracts, pure goods are always on sale. A large assortment of canned ! goods is observes, embracing fruits of all kinds, and iu t< iiet and laundry j soaps, all the popular kinds are kept I constantly on baud Syrups molasses, oil, cheese, smoked, dried and pickled meats, fish, dried frails, vegetables, I and farm produce, generally can be 1 had, while the best grades of flour is handled. The queeusware and glassware department is not only very large, i but it embraces alm< st every variety. I Here the housekeeper can select almost anything sought after, from the elegant China dinner or tea set to the best queensware. and so on W down to common stoneware. A rich display is made of glassware in sets and single pieces, frosted, plain and cut, which | presents some new and beautiful pat- > erns. Hanging lamps, parlor and hand i lamps, there seems to be no end to I them. Weoden and willow ware are kept aud a large stuck of tobacco and cigars, together with al! kinds of confectionary. Mr. Weifley s establish- j ment is a credit to the thrift aud en- | terprise of our city, and the enterprise ■ he has manifested together with his genial way of trealii g one and all of h is customers, will no doubt command a large and lucrative trade.
