LOCAL AND PERSONAL.

THE 21st verse of tho 7th chapter ol Ezra contains all the letters of the alphabet, I and considered as one. It is like the grocery establishment of White A Melvin, south-west corner of Fourth and Cherry streets, where may be found, not all the letters of the alphabet, but all the articles needed for the table, and for housekeeping. They also have a full supply of grain and feed for horses and cattle, and deliver all articles to any part of the city free of charge.

THE disgusting can-can has not been shown in this city for many months, but one of our business men seems determined that the can-can shall bo revived, and many 'ladies look with favor upon his enterprise. We refer to Dick Ball, His popular establishment is now well stored with tin cans of the very best material, style and workmanship, and the ladies can can all the fruit they want, with assurance that R. L. Ball's workmen will keep them supplied.

IT is rumored that our next illustrious visitot will be no less a person than the great Prince Bismarck. The particular attraction for the distinguished statesman in this country will bo to get a suit of clothes at John Kuppenheimer's, which has become the recognized headquarters for clothing the entire male community. In sober earnest, our readers can do no better in the purchase of ready-made clothing than by patronizing John Kuppenheimer. aaiUiwKH* *ii

THE Republicans have oarried North Carolina, to the discomfiture of the reeley ites and the joy of the Grantites, but neither are discouraged. Democrats as well as Republicans will continue to buy their queensw&re, glassware, dry goods, notions, boots, shoes, hats, caps, and household goods at George A. Hay ward A Co's, No. 30 South Fourth street, when men of all parlies are treated alike to the cheapest goods in tho market.

GOOD health is a good thing to hard in the house, but when you cannot have it, and have to call in a doctor, it well to know where to get good medicines. We recommend Cook A Davis' neat and model drug store, on Ohio street, near Third, where you can get just what your prescription calls for. Those wanting paints, chemicals, etc., and perfumery, toilet articles, and choice cigars, can find them also.

TERRE-HAUTE SATURDAY EVENING MAIL. AUGUST 10, 1872.

of the most pleasant places in

the city to drop in on business or for a social chat, is at W. H. Bannister's old and well-known clothing establishment. The proprietor has a long list of regular patrons, besides his transient custom, and they always find a cordial welcome, whether they want to order a suit, or find out "what it will cost." The answer to the latter conundrum is usually so satisfactory that Black steps oui with his tape line and the measure is taken.

IF YOU WANT a superior photograph, visit D. H. Wright, in his elegant andcommodious Grand Central Photographic Hall. Artistio taste combined with long professional study, and the excellent natural and mechanical facilties be now possesses, enables him to do some remarkably fine work. A visit to his gallery will convinoe the most skeptical that we speak the truth when we say that there are few better photographers in the West than D. Wright.

THB Fourth street market does not appear to be so largely patronized by buyers or sellors as in years past. This may be occasioned by the fact that at the "White Front," 155 Main street, Rippqtoe can supply the housekeepers with every needed "article for the table, including fruits, berries, melons, green c&rtf, choice groceries in fact any ar ticle to be found at the market house, and he will promptly deliver the same at your residence freo ol charge.

Duty off Teas. 4 And Tuttle of the New York Tea Store was prompt to give his customers the benefit by a reduction in the price. That is why all the people go to Tuttle for their pure and fresh teas, coffee and groceries.

THERE is an old gentlemaB in Houston county Ga., who says he uever had a pair of shoes until he was grown and had determined to join the Methodist Church. There is no necessity of people hereabouts going barefooted when boots and shoes for men, women and children are sold so cheap at No. 10 South Fourth street. Did you ever stop ti?ere and examine their prices? If not do so the first time the children want a pair of serviceable shoes.

CoRir, the new town on the Cincinnanati and Terre-Haute railroad was named in honor of Simeon Cory, our worthy citizen and well-known hardware merchant. As yet it isn't as big a thing as Cory & Co's hardware storehouses in this in this city, where everything in the hardware line is stored for the convenience of the people here and for miles around.

Ax advertisement in our county exchanges tolls some home truths. It says: For the best custom made, the most fashionable, the most stylish and best wearing, tho cheapest Boots and Shoes, go to the fashionable boot and shoe emporium of N. Andrews, No. 141 Main Streot, between Filth and Sixth, south side. Mr. Andrews invites all to call and be convinced that the above is true in every respect.

WE again ask the gentlemen readers of The Mail to turn their steps in the direction of J. P. Brennan A Co's new Merchant Tailoring establishment, on Ohio street, opposite the city offices, when in want of neat and fashionable wearing apparel. They have low rents, do their own work, have no clerk hire and desiring to build up a trade, are willing to give their customers the benenefit of these savings.

TIIKRE was a man in our town, And he was wondrous wise. Who traveled up and down the streets

In search of pure old Ryes, Until he came to Lvne's store, His search was all in vain, But there he filled his detnijohn,

And emptied it again.

We refer to J. B, Lyne, opposite the Terre-Haute House,who keeps thoPure Kentucky Whiskv.

CHICAGO boasts of a shoemaker who measures seven feet. That is nothing. Terre-Haute has a shoemaker who measures upwards of ten feet every day, even when the weather isn't very good for feet. He can be found at Engles A Tutt's, where he cuts out the very best custom made boots and where the ladies go for such elegant shoes for themselves and children.

SrscfAci.£s should be used wheti it becomes necessary to remove small objects, the eye of a needle, or point of a pin to a greater distance from the eye than formerly to see distinctly. When this is the case go at once to S. R. Freeman, 161 main street, and get the Patent Bifocal Spectacle, manufactured by the Edmunson Spectacle Company.

J. P. BRKNNAN A CO., the new merchant tailors from Chicago, er constantly turning out some exceedingly neat, nobby and dressy suits of clothes They have a fine selection of piece goods, and thoroughly understand how to make them up. Gentleman give them a call, at their neat establishment on Ohio street, near Third.

Do TOU want a geod five cent cigar? Then go to Scott Shoaff, where you will also find the Fountain and May Flower Fine Cut, the most popular brands of Fine Cut in the market. Good judges are rapidly finding out that for choice cigars, chewing and smoking tobacco, the place to go istoScottShoafTs, Main street, between Ninth and Tenth.

BEFORE making purchases of gold or silver watches, or jewelry of any description, drop in at Riddle's and look through the elegant stock he has on exiiibition.

A GENTLEMAN who had been arguing with an ignoramus until his patience was exhausted, said he didn't wish to see him dead, but he would be glad to see him know more. And we should be glad to have our readers know more about the new styles of stationery just received at Bartlett A Co's two Main street bookstores. There are some beautiful patterns among the papers and envelopes.

THERE is a strong feeling setting in against tobacco, and the day will come when societies will be organized against its use

Just as there are against alcohol. Those of us living a couple of hundred years hence will see these words verified. In the meantime we will continue to buy our cigars and tobacco at Duddleston Bros., in the Gilbert

Block-

THE pavement in front of Moore & Haggerty's was obstructed this week by piles upon piles of grates, plain and elegant, just received to supply their extensive trade. They show a fine selection of marbleized mantels, and are ready and prompt to fill all orders for tin and slate roofing, guttering and spouting, tin, sheet-iron and copper work.

PETER MILLER, by close attention to to business, strict integrity, and praiseworthy industry is doing a fine business at the Old Po3toffice building, Fourth street. He aims to make his establishment headquarters for harness of all kinds, saddles, trunks, valises, etc. He is agent for Miller's Harness Oil.
