THESE are carpenter's halcyon days.

SCHOOL exhibition at the Opera House to night. BEAUTIFUL.—'The country, the weather and the ladies.

A COOL summer W predicted by the weather prophets. TIIE Opera House has comfortable seating capacity for just 1,180 people.

E. OHM, the boot and shoe dealer, started on Tuesday, for Eur-pe "ke" goes on account of ill health

FOXY!—Tom Langford received by express yesterday three lively juu.ig fwxe., from an attentive friend at Marshal}, who supplies his wants in the game line.

THE Third Ward school house is not to be used for the colored school, as has been stated, bat is to be sold. An advertisement ordering the sale appears in our columns this morning.

THE new City. Council will be called on to elect five very important officials, viz: Street Commissioner, Market Master, Civil Engineer, Chief of Fire Department and Chief of Police. .t.^ -,y.

THAT both sides may have a hearing,

print this morning a communication

in.

opposition,to the purchase of the river bridge. Our columns are open for brief,

pointed

communications on this subject.

IIERZ & ARNOLD announce the daily arrival of new goods, embracing all the novelties of the season. ThP- ladies find their elegant Bazar in tho Opera House building one of the most attractive places in the city.

THE FBOSTS.—The first reports of the damage by frost on Saturday and Sunday nights are fully corroborated. Fruit men are carrying very long faces, and predict, of course, a corresponding increase of prices.

MAYOR'S COURT.—Yesterday morning Charle-i Burkhardt, who resides on Eleventh street, was arrested, on charge of abusing his wife. He was fined with cost $16 45, and was committed until he could raise the amount.

A PORTION,of the, members of the Fire Department get $2,50 each for every time they are called out. Has this anything to do with the sounding of the alarm bells whenever a pile of shavings is burned in the middle of the street? We are simply seeking for information.

THE Train Gazette is the title, of a neatly arranged advertising sheet laid on our table yesterday. It is issued"by Whipple, Locke & Co., of the Lecture. Bureau. It is issued for thepurpose of bringing prom inently before the people the second coming of George Francis Train, on the evening of the 16th of May.

AN interesting study was presented at the Opera House on Tuesday evening, in looking over the brilliant audience and noting the multiform and varied styles and shapes of the ladies' spring hats. Hardly any two were alike, and it seemed that it was only necessary to take any hat of last season and crumple it into some odd and fantastic shape to have the latest agony.

POOR ASYLUM.—From a careful inspection of our County Poor Asylum we are satisfied that, under the management of Mr. Armstrong, the inmates are well cared for and have no just cause of complaint. The rooun and balls are kept clean, an abundance of substantial and wholesome food is provided, and the unfortunate dependents upon public charity are treated with kindness. There are now forty inmates, including six insane persons. A beautiful girl baby, three months old, attracted particular attention. Is there no home that wants the little waif?

The position that Mr. and Mrs. Armstrong occupy is a peculiarly difficult one to fill and their cares and anxieties should not be increased by needless fault-finding. They seem to feel the responsibility of their Superintendency and are, we have no doubt, discharging their duties faithfullyIt would be well for those citizens who care to know how it fares with the paupers (and no one is sure that he may not be one of that class before he is done-with life's changes) to visit the Asylum. Besides gaining an accurate knowledge of its management, one can hardly fail to pick np a few lessons that will do him good. There are men and women in the institution whose history would be a better sermon than any clergyman ever preached* 'S IB»

WO&jm

UVJ-.HA lloofcp.—Tosiglit the children A tfiinusr was *oued yesterday for q[ the Grammar Schools will give an en-tr»-(ainment which liax'^c^n in preparation for weeks', and which we are assured will be one of moie than ordinary interest and merit. The" prolamine will include dialoguen, declamations, gymnastic?1, calesthenics, an Allegory of the Union and the beautiful fairy of "Beauty and the Beast." The ^draiasion is only twenty five cents. The proceed* go to the purchase of an organ.

The city Schools have six organs—one in each school building. All have been paid for with fund* outside of the tuition fond, except the one last purchased. The exhibition to-night is tt raise the means to pay for this one.

THE Opera on Tuesday evening, notwithstanding the immense outlay, was a Gnancial success, for which much credit in due our young friend Ben Cox, who in addition to the possession of good business qualities has a correct knowledge of the benefits of printer's ink, judiciously applied. The success of Ben's venture caused him to answer innumerable questions yesterday, propounded by many people from idle curiosity and a few people really gratified at his safely overcoming the great risk of bringing the Opera back. To satisfy the curiosity of the former we may state that a dispatch to the Asso ciated Press states that the receipts were $2,500. Now, deduct $1,000 paid the Opera Company and $250 for incidental expenses, and there would be left the handsome sum of $1,250 dear profit!

But then he didn't make so much. The receipts were really only about $1,475, and the expenses about $1,250—leaving $225 for all the trouble, labor, anxiety and risk.

The Giver Bridge.

On the second of May the voters of this county will be called upon to express their wishes As to a "new court house and a free bridge." The court house has but few friends we have one which answers all practical purposes for the present.

The bridge is the great question and let us examine some of the points i» case it is ordered to be purchased. In the first place it will create a debt of $80,000. This is equivalent to to eight thousand dollars a year for the county to pay for the trade of two townships west of the river.

Second, The county will feave to pay at least six hundred dollass a year for a man *0 attend the draw to let boats pass up and down. If the draw gets out of fix and an accident occurs to either boats or pas sengers, the county will have to pay, who can estimate how many thousand dollars? The writer of this can not. The bridge has been in existence twenty-fire years, and only look at the number of law suits the corporation has had. The construction of theVandalia Bridge and embankment has changed the water channel and it will soon be necessary to spend thousands of dollars to protect the piers, by stone rip rap, the same as the other bridges have been protected. On the west side of the river there is six hundred fee' of truss el to be kept up and maintained.

How much will it cost? Would it not be better to let the county pay to the Bridge Compariy a reasonable compensation yearly to let the citizens of Fayette and Sugar Creek townships pas3 over free, and let the Bridge Company retain their pur* clia.se and collect toll from movers going west. I have no doubt the Commissioners and the Bridge Company could estimate the population of- these townships land agree ujot) a basis for compensation sin-'-j vr TA* Paver.

ADVERTISEMENTS.—The advertising columns of a paper are.not the least interesting of its departments. A few readers ]take.no notice of.them but this is their iqisfortune they lofte by their oversight, fqr frequently a glance.at these columns w^ll answer a question that can. not be answered easily, any otljv way. it will reveal the very, thing that is wanted, and

(how

and where to get, it-. It is throngh the medium of advertisements that people who do not know each other, who .npver saw each other, and never may see each other, communicate. They are the literature of want, the intercourse of sup'ply and demand, and they reflect the whole life of a people. Two thousand years from now, when London shall have falllen into ruins, and: the British islee become inhabited by another race, the advertisements in a well1 preserved1 copy of a London newspaper will present a I more accurate picture of London life, and reveal more about the habits of the

London people than volumes of history and, if we conld this day have such a reflection of Egyptian life in the days of the Pharaohs, as the advertising columns of an Egyptian newspaper might have presented, it would be worth nearly as much as all the history of those ancicnt times that we possess. A single newspaper contains, sometimes, a prodigious number of advertisements we have in view one which in a recent issue had seventeen hundred and two several hundred of them related to household affairs, from the picime necessities of life, like groceries, provisions, clothing, dry goods, sewing machines, coal and wood cooking utensils and furniture, up through the long list of comforts, conveniences and refinements, such as hired help, books,Instruction, musical instruments, horses, carriages, jewelry and travel All these advertisements arc of immediate interest to every housekeeper, and, what is perhaps of higher consequence, they are matters of great convenience to most of them. This is especially the case with those totwhom time is money, in the sense that a loss of time from their em ployment is a direct loss of money. To these, the presentation of the objects they desire to purchase, or the services they wish to avail themselves of, in classified groups, .embracing large numbers, and great variety, is a time saving medium of the highest value.

Those who imagine that a conglomerate of promiscuous advertisements are not worth reading, make a serious mistake. There are things to be learned from them that can be learned, nowhere else. Practical readers are beginning to recognize this truth, and a man that wants to know something about all that goes on in the wdrld, does not consider that he has read his paper through till he has read all the advertisement*.

the arrest of aja^y school teacher, fori whipping j. p)*ld. A trial of the ca^e is set down for next Saturday.

MAIN ST., 10 O'CLOCJC, APRIL 2G. A thousand thanks to several thousand fiiends who have t&tified their good will to us to-day.- From "early morn 'till dewy eve" our store has been packed wiili customers far beyond our capacity to wait upon them. We. have eclipsed to-day even onr firstday in Terre Haute out- sales being nearly four hundred, dollars heavier. The high-priced stores made an attempt to break the force of our great opening, but did not succeed. Best Brussels Carpets $1 00 a yard, piles of handsome Tress Goods at 20, 25, 30 and 35 cent.*, Hills, Lonsdale and Dwight Muslins at 121 cents, with goods in all departments equally cheap, was more than they could stand. So as they couldn't compete with us, they fell into their old habit of lying abont us and tried to make customers believe the moon was made of green cheese, but only got laughed at for their pains by the parties they sought to deceive. Sale will be continued to-dav and every succeeding day until further notice. -J

A CAK1) TO TIIE FUBLIC.

The Profession pf Architect.

I have of late declined to offer competition -plan* and superintendence for some private -iid public buildings, as the premises did r.ot agree with the requirements and duties of strifct professional services. was asked to furnish plans in competition with contractors, which is as improper and out of place as to desire a bricklayer to compete with a painter. The offer to be paid for such competition and superintendence could not justify me in accepting. In the future, as now, I will decline all such competition. If persons among the public desire contractors to proffer plans and proposals, I will cheerfully direct them to several builders and contractors having the ability of planning buildings and write out practical specifications. As for myself, 1 will enter into competition only: with architects doing the exclusive business of architects. Many persons among the public, have no correct idea of the duties of an architect, therefore, I will briefly state that an architect is employed to put into practical and tasty form, together with durability, any building contemplated he writes specifications and establishes just and eqnitable competition among contractors, superintends works that they may be erect ed in accordance with the agreement entered between the person who builds and the contractors, and finally, settles all accounts of builders. In full, an architect doing exclueively the duties of his profession, acts as agent of parties who liuild, and receives no commission nor pay whatever but from his patrons, nor has he any interest in furnishing work and materials for any structure under his management, as this is incompatible with nis duties. 26 6t.
