A man called atone of our shoe store* yesterday and vainly essayed to get on either number 11,12 or 13 ahoea. The storekeeper then auggested that he put on a thinner pair of stooklngs and try on the box."

boots and shoes ail the time.
-The time for setting out trees, shrubs, grape vines, evergreens, fcc., is now at hand. To our numerous resdera we would recommend tbe nursery of Mr. E. Haas, as worthy of their patronage, since it is well known that Mr. Haas is one of the most successful nursery men in the State. The award of the first premium to Mr. Haas, for the best bearing orchard, by the Vigo County Board, WDB but an act of justioe and an acknowledgement of his superiority as a fruit-grower and nurseryman. Experience is the best teacher. Mr. Haas has, by close study, and various expensive experiments, tested the merits of hundreds of varieties of fruit-trees, grape-yines, Ac., and the benefits of his experience is now reaped by those who purchase of him those varieties of standard ao0 dwarf fruit-trees, grape-vines, fec., that have been found profitable to cultivate by an experience of over fifteen years.
By their fruit* ye shall know them," is the motto that Mr. Haas has adopted. Our lad/ friends will remember with pleasure the fine varieties of pears, apples, apricots, grapes, Ao.t that were introduced into this market by Mr. Haas.
To enumerate all the excellent varieties ever on sale at Mr. Haas's nursery would fill a column, suffice it that we direct attention to the Diana, Delaware, Ives seedling, Norton's Virginia seedling and 3 year old Concord grape-vines, also the splendid varieties of pears known as Ciapp's favorite, Mount Vernon, Bartlett, Ac., ftc. Apple, apricot and peach trees, as also all kinds of small fruits in the best varieties, may now be purchased of .Mr. Haas. Haas's nursery is located IK miles eaat of Terre Haute, on the Bloemlngton road. Orders may also be left at the 4th street msrket house on Saturdays.

Farmers wishing to avail themselves of the above proposal can be supplied at our offioe, corner of Third and Chestnut streets, or of J. A. Mitchell, near Darwin, Ilia., aa we shall kssp a supply of oorn at that place for tbe oonven ieooe of farmers on Walnut Prairie, or thereabouts. HCDKUT A Co.,

A SEW BAB Y.
A babe in the house is a well-spring', ofpIeasBie," and now that the Springtime is oomlng, doting mammas sndt loving papas, and tbe loving and do--ting elder slaters are looking about for a handsome carriage, in which to give the helpless little
babies
sn airing. We'
wish to direct the steps of all such to the auction house of Jasper Holmes,, No. 100 Mala atreet, tbe plaoe where» on each evening Mr. German Ambrose so eloquently holds fortb. But it is not of him we wish to speak. Just enquire for Mr. J. B. Rupe, whose servioeshave recently been secured In tbe ratal I department, and ask him to conduct you to the third floor. An easy flight of stairs ascended and you are ushered lata a large room extending tbe full depth of tbe building, the floor completely severed with ths finest lot of Baby Carriages ever brought to this.city. To get so large and varied an assortment, Mr. Holmes draws on four different manufactories, and he has them in prices to salt all purses, from |6 to Tou that have babies, go down next week and look at his wag-. ona before the stock is broken.
0 THE UJN1VERSAL LIFE. fFromthe N.Y.Mall.j We call attention to the annual statement of the Universal Life Insurance. Company elsewhere printed. This is the pioneer American life company organised npOii the stock principle, anct its success is an evidence of the satis--faction sf the people with this very' business-like plan of selling fixed, amount of insurance for a fixed amount of premiums. Last year tbe Universsl received for premiums 9715.937 and for interest fSS,300, a total ol 1779.237, The company Issued nearly 8,000 policies,: insuring 90,848,061, snd closed this year with assets aggregating 91,246,393. After reserving an adequate &um for »eInsurance and pll other liabilitiea, the Universal baa a surplus aa to policyholders of 1333,478, which is equsl to a margin of forty per cent, above ths re-. qalrements of security, and consequent-.: ly would seem to make tbe company's policies sufficiently iron-clad to relieve all holders from even the shadow of doubt or fear. In this particular the Universal occupies a proud position. Tbe company's trustees and officers are gentlemen too well known In Near York to make any favorable reference to them necessary.
The above company Is represented in this city by M. J. WHBBLBB. —NEW SUPPLY"oP EM BROIDERIES EXPECTED THIS AFTERNOON AT A. HBRZ A CO. PRICKS AS LOW AS EVER.
