THE rebel General Magruder was stunning in respect to dross. When he was an officer in the American Army, during the Mexican war, ho wore blue pantaloons that were so particularily extravagant in the way of stripes that it was a question whether his trousers were blue, with red stripes, or red with blue stripes. The* question was never decided by his brother officers, but tho garments that are now voted to be of the right stripe are those that are mado at W. II. Bannister's popular clothing house.

PLEASURE is just as natural as smelling there is as much joy in sliding down hill by moonlight op a barrel stave, as there is forty years afterwards in being principal stockholder and President of a double track railroad, but neither are to bo compared to the pleasure we give tho masculine readers of The Mall in announcing that Erlanger Co. are now making their semi-annual clearance sale, and that until the close of the season they will give a reduction of ten per cent, on all goods sold, and sell all summer goods at net cost.

THB Sharon Times learns that about twentv-flve persons were poisoned at New Wilmington, Lawrenco county, recently, by eating ice cream.

Had they sent to Cook A Davis, who manufacture their own Flavoring Extracts, and know what is in them, this danger would have been avoided.

The first new sweet potatoes of the season appeared on the table of the National House last evening. They came from the popular grocery ^tore of R. W. Rippetoe.

And this is from the" Gazette, same date. Rippetoe received several crates of very luscious peaches yesterday. They did not last long, however. They came from Hopkinsville, Kentucky, and were the first of the season.

MAN makes many mistakes in a life time, and one of the greatest may be made in purchasing marbelized mantels before looking at the stock on exhibition at Cory & Co's. They are rich and gorgeous, gay, but not gaudy, and the admiration of all who look upon thom. If you are building this summer, or renovating your residence, call at Cory ct Co's and see these beauties. There is enconmy in putting them in a house, and then their cheapness will surprise you.

To ASCERTAIN if your wife is jealous, lace up another woman's shoe, and let her catch you at it. If that don't make her round shouldered nothing will. There is one exception, however, to this rule, and that is in the family of Noyes Andrews. He has laced np so many elegant, neat-fitting shoes this summer, sending his lady customers away so happy with their comfortable foot gear, that no wife could find it in her heart to become jealous.

THB busiest men in town are Moore fc Haggerty. If they are not making money it is not for want of energy, tact and industry. They are making a big drive in the sale of marbleized mantels, of which they show some exquisite designs, and their large force of workmen are on the go all the time to fill orders for slate and tin roofing, guttering and spouting, tin, sheet iron and copper work.

D. H. WRIOHT has settled down to work in his New Grand Central Photographic Hall, and is daily finishing some most artistic pictures. Go to him for group pictures, single pictures, pictures of old tolks, of little folks, of the beautiful in face and otherwise. By the way, he can by some miraculous means make an ugly person look quite handsome, and yet the photograph closely resembles the original.

I WONDER where those clouds are going," sighed Flora, pensively,{as she pointed, with deljcate finger, to the heavy masses that floated in the sky. "I think they are going to thunder, said her brother. "Well," replied Flora, "they may be going to thunder, but I am going to Engles fc Tutt's to purchase a pair of those elegant shoes just like Julia got yesterday. They are so cheap, snug and comfortable."

HAVE you taken advantage of the offer For several weeks past R. L. Ball has had standing in our columns an offer to sell his stock of stoves at greatly reduced prices, in order to riit money with which to start his ritove foundry in the right way and make it a success. Are you giving him your patrohage, and thus saving three to flye dollars on every stove, besides encouraging a home enterprise.

IN some stores you can go and buy wearing apparel that looks very flashy and gay, while at the same time they are as far from being in accordance with true taste and a proper sense of neatness as tho East is from the West, and still more distant from being fushionable. If you want, however, a tasty, neat and fashionable suit of clothes, we advise you to call at John Kuppenheimer's ready-made clothing depot.

"GOODY Goedy Goody 1" Bartlett tfc Co., at the Central Book Store, are selling good paper at five cents a quire good envelopes at five cents packago good ink at five cents a bottle good pens at five cents a dozen good pencils five cents for lour, and other goods in like proportion. They have two fine stamping presses, with which initials are stamped on paper and envelopes free of charge.

ADVERSITY exasperates fools, dejects cowards, draws out the (acuities of tho wise and industrious, puts the modest to tho necessity of trying their skill, awes tho opulent, and makes all study economy by purchasing their Boots and Shoes, Quceusware and Glasswaro, Notions and Dry Goods at Geo. A. Hayward fe Co's., No. 30 south Fourth street.

A CONCLUSIVE argument against suicide is that it is the height o( impoliteness to go any place before you are sent for. It is no breach of politeness to wait to be sent for, but go without asking to White fc Melvin's for your choice groceries, country prod nee, berries, etc. You kno* where tfl^ keep, oornerof Fourth and Cherry streets, in the Cook building. v,*' £ARNX'M'S coming is creating a great sensation, and so are the folks down at No. 10 south Fourth street, by marvelously low prices at which they are selling a really excellent and well selected stock of boots and shoes. The explanation is in the fact that they have no rent to pay, bay for cash, and are willing to sell for a bare living profit.

"SMOKE, sir?" Yes, sir, I do and who wouldn't, when tbey can get the best five cent cigar in the city at Scott 8boaf*s, on Main street, between Ninth and Tenth, where also may be found, among other brands, The May Flower Fine Out Chewing Tobacco,

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.

PERRY TCTTIE, of the popular New York Tea Store, who was so prompt to reduce the price ®f tea, is willing to admit that honest tea is the best policy, but when it comes to coffee, he doesn't believe in running the thing into the ground, unless it is ground through his new coffee grinder. «•.

To the Ladles.—MIW. A. L. WILSON, M. D, offers her services to tlie women and children of this city. A thorough medical education and an experience of fourteen years entitle^ Mrs Wilson to speak confidently of her ability to treat diseases in all Its forms, yet the fact that it is in those affections ordinarily termed "Female Diseases" that woman more particularly requires woman's aid, has led her to devote especial attention to that class of cases. Office and Residence, 43 South Seventh street, between Walnut and Poplar. Junel5-tf.

Brigrnrs and Jllllljfnn.—Jos. H. Briggs & J. A. MiUlgan have formed a partnership, and would respectfully call attention to the fact that at the old stand, northwest corner of Fourth and Cherry streets, they are selling the best and freshest groceries at the lowest prices and would be pleased to have all call and see for themselves.
