EVENING MAIL. MAY 13. 1871. 73 MAIN STREET.

Ernest Knabe, the manufacturer ot the eelobrated Knabe Pianos, visited Mr. Kissner, his popular agent in this city, during the past week. He has Just furnished tho Palace of Music with another largo stock of theso superior pianos which are now on exhibition and for sale. Mr. Kissner has been dealing in theso pianos for the last thirteen years, and the notorioty they have gained in this city and vicinity, renders it necessary for him to continually enlarge his ordors. Those who are not acquainted with theso instruments should examine them before making a purchase elsewhere.

All who wish to listen to the most logical, eloquent and entertaining speech over delivered in this city .should not fail to hear George Francis Train at the Opera House on Tuesday night. And besides the eloquence, tine thoughts and sentiments, wit ai.d humor will.be leading features of tho entiro discourse. Ilis auditorsaro always convulsed with laughter the greater portion of tho time. Secure your seats at B. G. Cox's and hear an address from the most wonderful man ot tho ago.

\11 tho citv offices ai now filled by the newlv elected and appointed incumbents: The old officers retired with becoming grace this morning, and the new ones were installed. Everything is again harmonious, and thex should all go now to Scudder's and partako of his delicious ice cream They will find his parlor saloon as elogant as ever, and well patronized by numerous ladies and gentlemen.

We are sure that our lady readers who visit L. Straus' establishment will agree with us that the spring and summer stvles of millinery goods,

Although J. Schaubliii has been ill for a few days, tho many customers who have called at his Fancy Trimming Store, have been properly waited on. The fact is tho more his establishment is known the more it is conceded that, as a trimming dealer, lie is a success..

There is no getting around the fact that E. D. Harvey is tho man for furniture. Ho maj* be found at 83, Main street. Finer parlor and chamhor setts than he keeps cannot bo found elsewhere. Try his now mattresses, the very latest and best make.

Unlike the writer of tho Pilgrim's Progress, who wrote but to divert himself, not his neighbors to gratify, we would ask no apology for proclaiming to the world. that P. E. Tuttle keeps one of tho finest and best assortments fruits, confectioneries, lemons, oranges, teas, coffees Ac., in the city.

Erlanger & Co. say that the sun and moon may be eclipsed, and tho heavenly bodies one by one may go out in darkness, but in the clothing business they propose to stand uneclipsed. When you want anicespringsuit ready made or mado to order, give them a call.

Too much cannot be said in favor of Rippetoe's handsome grocery and provision establishment, 155 Main street. He keeps everything in his lino, and of course is able to give every one satisfaction. Many new people have lately found it to tneir advantago to patronize him.

That music establishment on the corner of Main and Sixth streets continues to grow in popular favor at a rapid rate. W. H. Page & Co. have received another large lot of pianos and organs, the latest sheet music arrives every day, Thej' keep all kinds of instruments constantly on hand.

For pure and fVesh drugs and medi cines, go to J. W. Stewart's extensive drug store, opposite the postoffiee. He has a large and complete assortment of everything pertaining to a first-class establishment. Ho prepares prescriptions with unusual care. __ I

Tho growth of Terre-Haute during the last two years has been wonderful. But it is hardly more wonderful than the way Peter Miller sclly fine trunks and harness at the old Postoffiee 4th street. Give hkn a call.
