How agreeable are the visits of an acquaintance who, in times too ancient for tbo memory of man to pen trate, has seen "better days." How kindly he eats your dinners, borrows your money, and gently insinuates as he shakes your hand at parting that he knew how to entertain his people in time ot prosperity.

An estimable colored lady of this city in giving a glowing description of the large concourse that assembled lately at Indianapolis to celebrate tho passage or the lolh amendment said that by three o'clock the large hall, where the preaching was held, was so crowded with colored people that they had to light the gas.

Miss Anna Dickinson was about to deliver her celebrated lecture on Joan Arc in an Iowa town, and of course it was considered necessary that she should be introduced to the audience. The task fell upon the Chairman ot thl Lecture Committee,a worthy individual, but not very well versed in the history or the language of the lamented La Pncelle. "Ladies and gentlemen, said he, advancing to the front of the platform, "Miss Dickinson will address you to-night on the life and adventures of John Dark, one of the greatest heroes of antiquity as he ought to be, owing to the long time since antiquity but one thing is certain, and tbat is that Miss Dickinson can tell us about the most remarkable man of them all, John Dark."

They enjoy an enviable reputation in this line of work, throughout Western Indiana and Eastern Illinois, and are reaping the reward of industry, merit aud energy.

Tho feet aro the most important part of one's corporosity, after all. It is said that Napoleon once lost an Important battle because of the impatience engendered by a p»ir of tight boots. However that may be, a neat, snug fitting comfortable boot Is indispensable. The place to get thein is at N. Andrews'. His advertisement appears in another column. Look at it, then go and leave yoni*measure. If you don't want to get tits,walk right by Andrews' establishment. He will be sure to give them to you.

A Berry this Spring carry a

very heavy stock of White Lead, of several popular and well-known brands. /They are doing a big trade in the famous and unrivalled "Railroad Colors," aud have a complete assortment of paint and whitewash brushes, glass, oils, varnishes, dye stuflk etc. When In want or any of thele articles give them a call at the old established corner of Main and Fourth streets.

We feel jo*t like puffing somebody tuxf we don't know ot anybody mora deserving of our complimentary sdjectivea than the Duddleston Brothers, who kasp the elegant tobacco and cigar atore in the Gilbert Mock. They are are energetic, industrious and clever gentlemen,

On inquiry of the beat draaaed man in town, we learn that is a regular patron of W. H. Bannister the clothier. His clothes fit better, wear better, and cost less than fhoae of any other establishment. We called at the eatabliahment the other day, and fonnd all hands busy opening a splendid stock of beautiful spring goods, comprising some of the 'nobbiest' patterns we have ever seen. All persons who patronise this house, will find the proprietor an honorable gentleman, and will go away well satisfied that they have been honorably dealt with.

The Grocer is the pioneer of tradesmen. Something to eat is the first necessity, and as soon as there are enough houses to be called a "settlement," the Grocer hangs out bis sign. Year by year the little groceries on the outskirts of our city increase in number, while the old established houses increase in the amount oi stock kept on band and the trade done. Of these one of the most extensive and popular In the city is that R. W. Rippetoe, known as the "White Front," 155 Main street.

All good cooks go to tho Cook building on the corner of Fourth and Cherry streets. Why? Because that is where White A Melviu have recently opened their elegant giocery and country produce establishment. Having a large acquaintance with the farmers in this vicinity they possess unusual advantages in securing country produce, and their stock of groceries being new and fresh, causes their establishment lo be quite popular with all who have to prepare food for the table.

J. B. Lyne's Pure Kentucky Whisky takes the place of all other brands where it is known. Tue other day ho sold a large lot to a house in Ciiiciunai1 and that, too, at the same price he charges here lor a single barrel. Deal«rs in this article should give it a trial. Mr. Lyne's establishment is located just opposite the Terre-Haute House, where also may be found a lull stock of Drandies, wines, native and other liquors, brandies, wines, and oilier liquors, native andWoreign.

When the Queen of Sheba visited King Solomon, a mo.iarch whose fame had spread throughout the land as a great and wise man, she was arrayed in most gorgeous splendor. If tue laidies of our day wisu to surpass the Queen in splendor they should purchase their jewelry ol S. R. Freeman, where can be found tho largest and finest stock in the city. You know where he keeps, on Main s'. reet, throe doors west of Cth street.

The young mail\vho cried because he was going to marry a strange girl,dried his tears when he called at John Kuppenbeimer's clothing bouse and was arrayed in an elegant fittingsuit, at surprisingly low figures. The bouse was never better supplied with clothing and gents' furuishitig goods adapted to spring wear. When anythiug is wanted in the ready made line of clotbiug we advise a call on John Kuppenbei-

Tbat, sir, is a question we can't answer, but we have fouud tbat the place to get the purest and choicest flavoring extracts is at Cook fc Davis' model drug store on Ohio street near the Court House.

Cory & Co., the well-kno'wn"and reliable hardware merchants, offer this spring extra inducements in the way of builder's hardware and are doing an immense business in this line. With a full stock and determination to please, they command a large share of the tra^o not only of this city but of the surrounding towns and adjoining counties. 'S.g *.

We knew It! Knew what? Whv, tbat the men would have to wear the Dolly Varden! Erlanger tells us he has Doily Varden suits for gentlemen. Drop in there and see it, and while there look at his Model Shirt. It has no equal. He does not keep the Dolly Varden for ladies,but mothers will find an elegant stock of ready made clothing for their boys.

They still lead the van. We refer to Bartlett & Co., the proprietors of the two Main street bookstores. The elegant goods they now show at tneir two establishments are the admiration of all men, women and children. It was a lucky hit of tbein in purchasing B. O. Cox's store, tor they have thereby obtained control of the great bulk of the book and stationery trade, of this city.

It is said that nothing on earth can smile but human beings, but if you want to sees horse laugh, go to the old postoffloe and see Peter Miller dre*s horse ins setof fine harness. Customers go away greatly astonished at his low prices, and delighted with hia elegant work. He baa also a full stock ot whips, trunks, valises and other goods in his line.

L. Ball wants us to tall the many readers of The Mail that ha can fill all orders this spring tor ratrigaratora, beer cooler*, ice cheats, water coolers, toe cream treesers, bath tuba, all siaea, toilet aeta, bird cagaa, clothes wringera, stoves, etc. -and he will warrant the priesa to be aa low aa the lowest. All ha wanta to aacnra trade la aa Inspection of his goods and prices. —The largest and ftesheat stock of canned fruits in the dty at the lowest price can be fonnd at White A Mel-

V. U. Dickhout's trunk factory hsa attained wlda reputation and la recognised as one of the prominent inati tntlons of Terra-Haute. He now *«tla bis trunks in every weatern and northwestern State, turning out about ten doaen a week, ranging in price from 910 §150 a doaen.
