What's the trouble now? We And tbis Item in this morning J8»rnal: Several prominent Democfatspf the city and county desire to ihtfhrvtew the Hon. Joseph Gilbert. The high parties are tendered the use of the Journal sanctum for their meeting.
For Frames of every description at the lowest prices, go to R. Gagg's Art Emporium, 91 Main street. He purchases bis moulding in large lots from the manufacturers, and keeps a man constantly at work making frames,
Tbe Archbishop of Santiago declares that female voices in tbe choir are dan gerous to true piety and devotion. Whether this may be true or not the female voice in tbis locality is partial to the well selected stock of sheet mnsic to be found constantly at W. Paige A Co's music store. They make it a specialty to keep the best and latest publications in this line.
A California lady owns 175,065 acres of land, and yet she is far from being happy, simply because she is so far away that she cannot enjoy the sweet privilege with the ladies of Terre Haute of buying her toilet articles, colognes, perfumery, fancy soaps, brushes, combs, etc,, of Buntin A Armstrong, who, by making tbis class of goods a specialty, do an immense trade in tbe same.
There is always a calm after a storm. This has been the case recently in respect to the Sewing Machine war. Yesterday evening we looked in at the Singer agency and found Manager Marshall about closing up last year's business. Uj-on his desk was a letter from headquarters, expressing much gratification over the list of sales for tbe last two months, and closing with: "Goon, and prosper!"
I clasped her tiny bard in mine I vowed to shield her from the wind and from the world's cold storms. She sat her beauteons oyes on me, and said, with trembling swell: "Take me to W. H. Gilbert's cozy parlor, on Fourth street, north of the Opera House, for a dish of oysters, for they do say he serves them up better than any place in town." Of course such an appeal could not be denied.
The Peoria Review says that a lady teacher in one of the publio schools was amazed the other day by seeing a perfect forest of juvenile bands fly up in the air and shake and gesticulate with violent agitation. "What do you want?" queried tbe puzzled instructor. Chorus—"Yer hair's falling off." By tbe way, speaking of hair goods, the ladies always find the lowest prices and a large stock to select from, at Riddle's.
Keep on good terms with your wife, your stomach and your conscince. To be able to do tbis, you should do as all the best families are now doing—use Kern fc Rapp's Family Flour. There are no better millers in tbn country, and as they make a specialty of flour for home consumption, it is but natural that it sbonkl be tbe best in order to hold the trade. L?ave your order on the slate at N. Katzenbacb A Co's, and it will be promptly filled.
There !.• a pleasure in keeping books —we don't mean borrowed books for reading, although some people find great pleasure in this—but In keeping books of accounts, especially such elegant blank books as sold by Button A Hamilton, who have tbe largest and finest stock in this line ever kept in this city. They also keep a lull stock, of paper, envelopes, pens, pencils, blank notes, receipts, bill files, and everything needed in a counting room. And not only tbe goods but the prices will be found reasonable.
Milligan
A
Bond have moved across
the street, where they are now comfortably fixed in tbe new brick building on the east side of Fourt street, between Cherry and Mulberry, and where they have opened a new, fresh and complete stock of Staple and Fancy Groceries and Provisions, Flour and Foed. They are selling at bottom prices. Tbey want you to come and see them in tbeir new rooms, and will take pleasure in waiting on you and will deliver goods to any part of the city, free of charge. They are thankfal for the liberal patronage they have rec Ived and will do all in their power to merit a continuance of the same.
A fine watch rarely gets out of order, but when it does you don't want any bungler or blacksmith to tinker with it. Take it to Riddle's, where a skill Ail workman makes a specialty of potting fine watches in good order. While there look over bis well selected stock of goods, and we have no doubt you you will find bis prices an inducement to trade with him. va-'
If gossip, with her poisoned tongue, meddles with your good name, heed her not. Carry yourself erect let your oonree be straightforward, and by tbe serenity of your countenance and the purity of yonr life give the lie to all who would underrate and belittle you. And above all things, when you want the choicest groceries, game, poultry, country produce, all kinds of table supplies and housekeeping articles. »ilon Kippetoe at the ••White Front,"

Berry's Drag Store.
It has been ascertained that the old man who called so often at Seott ShoafTs, on east Main street, near the canal, is not crazy at all, bnt went there attracted by the superb cigars and tobaccos to be found there.
In love we are fools alike.—[Gay.] In buying cigars and 'tobacco we are alike sensible in going to J. B. Lyne's, opposite tbe Terre-Haute .House. He has quickly built up a large trade, by furnishing his patrons with tbechoicest brands. ,y
Pause! Reflect! Determine! Stop and think that the new year has begun and if you own a horse it must have harness, aud that the place to get the best band-made is at Miller & Arleth's in the old postoffice building, south Fourth street.
She stood at the threshold at evening, she was clad in her best dress she knew he was ready to greet her, and longed for his opinion as to where was the best place in Terre Haute to buy boots and shoes for the family. "Times arehaid," she said. We want good foot-wear that will last and look well without being too expensive." They decided to go to Noyes Andrews, who, by running his business in the most economical manner, purchasing the best goods and being satisfied with a small margin of profit, has been driving right along while others cry

A philosopher says a man falls in love as he falls down stairs—by accident! By accident we dropped into S. R. Freeman's, under tbe National House, yesterday, juet as he was showing a party of ladies visiting tbis city through his goods. Many were their expressions of delight on viewing his elegapt and well-selected stock of sparkling gems such as Gold and Silver Watches, Chains, Rings with precious stone settings, Diamonds, Gold Thimbles, elegant Sets of Jewelry,handsome Etruscan, Stone Cameos, Solid lSk. Rings, Gold Pens, Pencils, Tooth Picks, Fancy Clocks, Solid Silver Spoons, and an eudless variety of Silver Ware and may were tbe expressions of astonishment from these ladies as they learned his low prices.
