TERRE-HAUTE SATURDAY. EVENING MAIL, AUGUST 9, 1873.

T. II. Riddle started for the eastern cities this woek. He will be gone some six weeks, during which time he will select such a stock of goods suitod to the many and fanciful wants of the ladies as was never before seen In this city. In the meantime tho present stock is being sold out by those loft in charge at almost any figures, in order to clear away for the new goods.

Bartlott fc Button, the successors of Bartlett fc Co. are gentlemen of energy, taste and capital. They intend that, as heretofore, the Ceutral shall keep the lead in the Book trade of Terre-Haute. To do this they will keep in stock tbe standard publications, with additions constantly of tbe newest and most popular books of the day. They will make staple and fancy stationery a specialty.

The Bible has something to say about asking for somotbing to eat and they gave him a stone. Now if you stop one door west of Seventh street, on Main and ask for a Stone, you will get almost anything you want to eat, in tbe way of choice groceries, fruits, vegetables, country preduce, canned goods, pickles, preserves, and indeed everything needed for a well ordered table.

This warm weather, how pleasant Is a good cooling bath, especially if you have at hand those desirable Turkish bath towels, gloves, sponges, brushes Ac., to be found in great variety at Buntin Armstrong's drug store, where also may be obtained the choicest imported perfumery and handkerchief extracts, combs, brushes and toilet soaps of all grades and at unusually low prices.

A man at Harper's Ferry owns a whole mountain and wants to trade it for a shot gun. If he would come out here and see the elegant stock of carriages at W. R. Mercer's Coach Works he would want to trade for them. Don't know whether Mercer wants any "mountains," but we do know that the "mountings' on his carriages, buggies and phaetons are surpassingly elegant, showing the exquisite taste of tho workmen in his employ.

J. P. Brennan, the Ohio street merchant tailor, has no complaints of dull times. Cause why? Tho gentlemen have found out that ho keeps in stock tho best goods in the market, employs good workmen, pays low rents and gives his customers tho benefit in the way of extra bargains. To make room for fall and winter goods he is just now putting his prices away down.

Why don't the public have some pity for those poor fellows at Rippetoe's this hot weather, and not run them to death? We have been there and watched with toars in our eyes the desperate efforts they make to wait on everybody with tbo choicest fruits, berries, spring chickens, fresh vegetables, and the very bost of everything in the grocery line. As fast as the orders of pooplo were taken, others rushed in for their table supplies. If you want to see a

"Presactly," and when you want cholcelgrocerles, fresh berries, vegetables, fruits, smoked meats, or anything for the table remember that there Is no better placo to deal than at Jacob White's southwest corner of Fourth and Cherry streets. Ho keeps also, a full stock of all kinds of the best feed for horses and cattle.

Tho highest point In town is tbe top of the Congregational Church steeple. From it you coald look down into tbe popular shoe store of J. B. Ludowld A Co., oorner of Main and Sixth streets and see the constant throng going to and coming away with bundles of shoes of all kinds purehastOLj.L^™»||®bly low prices. "Ifyou don't like this dinner you'd better go and hsng yourself,'» said an Ohio woman to ber husband, and be practically approved her logic. Speaking of dinner reminds ustbst nowhere in the city, can better groceries, conntry produce, choice fruits, etc.,be found that at Milligsn A JTohnson's.nortbesst corner of Fourth and Cherry streets.

S. R. Freeman, the old reliable, with his excellent English Watchmaker, from Manchester, never fails to give the fullest satisfaction in the repair of watches. He has a fine marine chronometer, and correct time is kept by transit observations. When you want the celebrated Edmonson Spectacle, or any description of fine jewelry, go to Freeman, under the National House.

The English have not succeeded in astonishing the Shah of Persia, although they have tried every way. If he were here we would take him to Herz it Co's Opera House Bazaar, and astonish him with the elegant stock of ladies goods and the low prices for the same. In the meantime we refer the ladies of this city and vicinity to tho sparkling and attractive local notices of the Bazaar, which appear on the Fourth page.

That big Indian opposite the TerreHaute IIouso attracts the attention of all who go in that direction, and there are a great many who go that way since it has become known that in the rear of tbo forocious-looking aboriginal, J. B. Lyne supplies all who call with tbo finest cigars and tobaccos ever brought to this markot. Ho is determined to build up a reputation on cigars and tobacco similar to that he maintains as a dispenser of pure liquors.

Ood bless the noble workingmeo, Who rear the cities of the plain Who die the mines and build the ships,

And drive the commerce of the main, God ble8Sthem for their toiling hands, Have wrought the glory of all lands." Theso are sterling lines, and on reading them, wo consider that the best adyice we can give the worklngmen Is to tell them that tboy will best consult their interests by purchasing their Boots and Shoes of that great friend of the workingman, Noyes Andrews,who with a full stock of the best of foot wear, is satisfied with a reasonable profit. He will not be undersold.

The firm of O. Bartlett A Co., is this day dissolved by mutual consent, Mr. E. li. Hamilton having purchased the interest of Mr. Bartlett. The business will be continued under tke firm name of Button & Hamilton.

Thanking my friends and the public generally for past favors, I cheerfully recommend the new firm to their favorable consideration.
