LOCAL AND PERSONAl

WHAT'S a Dover Cloth Shirt Erlanger fc Co. have them. They have also the handsomest and cheapest Jeans Drawers, Gossamer Gauze and Lisle Thread Undershirts, just the thing for torrid weather. They have just opened some beautiful Cassimere and Marseilles Vestings, that are decidedly nice. Then they will sell you a striped summer coat for one dollar, and show you the latest thing out—Gilmore's Peaoe Cravat.'

TF.RRE-HATJTE SATURDAY EVENING MAIL JULY 13. 1872

THE greatest novelty in our city In the way ol sign painting has lately been placed over the entrance of Tuttle's New York Tea Store. It is something worth looking at, and will, no doubt,arrest the gaze of thousands that throng both sides of that busy thoroughfare, Main street. The artist, Mr. Yeakle, has sneoeeded with admirable accuracy in delineating pair of Mongolian gentlemen, commonly called the "Heathen Chinee." They are life size, and briliantly costumed. The one on the east side of the frame is an exact likeness of the celebrated "Ah Sin," whose smile was so child-like and bland, and not of Tuttle, as the Greeley organ would have it. The figure on tha west side is taken from a photograph of the veritable "Te Clio Moyune," the great Canton Tea Merchant, with whom Tuttle is on terms of the happiest busines relations.

AN ignoramus had been sick, and, on recovering, was told by the doctor, that he might take a little animal food.

No, sir," said he "I took your gruel very well, but hang me if I can eat your hay and oats." Speaking of hay and oats reminds us that White fc Melvin, in the Cook building, corner of Fourth and Cherry streets, besides a choice stock of groceries, keeps all kinds of grain and feed for horses and cattle.

IT is not hard to work this warm weather if it pays, and you can by so doing alleviate the disagreeableness ot your snffering fellow mortals. So reasons Scott Shoaff at his cigar store on east Main street, near the canal. His customers keep him busy, but it makes him happy, for he is putting money in his purse. His brands of cigars and tobaccos are excellent and cheap,

THAT doctors do not always disagree is evident from their great unanimity of opinion as expressed in regard to the fact that at J. B. Lyne's, opposite the Terre-Haute House, may be found the purest and best stock of wines and brandies, foreign and domestic, and also the Pure Kentucky Whisky. Call on him, and our word for it, you will agree with the docrors.

THE Edmundson American Spectacle Company, manufacture the Patent Bifocal Spectacle, whereby the wearer can see to read the finest print and thread the finest needle, and with the same Spectacle see at a distance as perfectly ss in youth. S. R. Freeman, 161 Main street, is the agent for this city, and has a fall supply on hand, mounted in a variety of styles.

No PERIOD of a man's life is awaited with more joyous impatience than the blissful moment ot leading to the altar the one he has loved with an intensity that words in vain essay to' describe especially if he is encased in sn elegant fitting suit of clothes from W. H. Bannister's popular clothing house. He has a superior stock to select from,

BE JUST to all, kind to your friends, intimate with few, fawning to none, true to your family, faithful to your Government, respectful to your petitioners, grateful to your donors, merciful to you enemies, haughty to no one, and buy your boots and shoes of Engles it Tutt, 107 Main street. Then will you and your family live long and prosper.

DONTI Don't what? Why, don't buy a marbleized mantel until you have seen the stock of mantels and grates at Moore fe Haggerty's, where, also may be had cheap cistern and force pumps, and where you can get a good job of guttering,spouting, tin and sheet iron work. Moore & Haggerty are the champion tin and slate roofers in this section of country.

WHILE you are at Bartlett & Co's Central Bookstore, admiring W. R. Freeman's "Rainy Day," just look around, and you will find many other things to admire, such as elegantly bound and valuable books, fancy stationery in endless variety, a choice selection of stereoscopic views, stereoscopes, albums,photographs, and many other articles, useful and ornamental.

If weary miles you've walked a score,. And And your limbs are stiff with pain. Go on, my friend, till your feet are sore,

But your feet won't get sore if you buy your boots and shoes of N. Andrews, N®. 141 Main street, who, by the way, in his new show window exhibits some very handsemc shoes for ladies and misses.

FARMERS, it is a fact that the Fish Brothers' wagon is the best in the market. We haven't the spaco to tell you why, but if you will call on Ralph Lawrence he will give you all needed information. I

THE ladies delight to stand over Riddle's show cases and look at his elegant jewelry in all the latest styles and designs, and so cheap too, that they demand his positive assurance that they are of pure metal.
