Really, for the credit of the city, our lawyers ought to behave themselves when they go away• from home. By having tholr frionds interview the editors of the several papeas they can usually suppress reports of their little scrim* mages here in our court*—but away from home the tiling will get out to the disgrace of our town.
Gazette: Twenty-five years ago on Thursday, March 4th, Rev. J. C. Reed, pastor of Anbury, took his ftrst text and preached thereon his first sermon. In all there years he has not been absent from his post three months, nor baa be been absent more than five weeks atany one time, and that was on one occasion when he was absent through sickness.
Col. L. M. Rose, far five years connected with the Oacette and Journal printing establishments, dissolved his p\rtner»hip and retired from the business management of the latter on Monday.

Ind. People: The Vincennes Sun says, "Hon. David Turpie presides with more ability and dignity than any gentleman heretofore occupying the position he does. He is quick and accurate, n®vrr making a mistake." Some Satanic person suggests that this should read,
Quick and accurate, even in making a mistake." Those who can remember so long two years a*o renqrafber that Edwards, of Vigo, filled the chair In a most »atla&ctory manner, that he was quhik And accurate, and, better than aU, hi» politics could not be told from his ratings, which is the highest compUju ul oan be paid to a speaker.

There was a commotion that assumed the proportions of a small tempest among the High School pupils yesterday on the announcement ot the resignation of Mrs. S. E. Moore, and her immediate absence from the school. It appears that for some cause she was transferred to the Fifth ward, and on receipt of the notice she tendered her resignation. Mrs. Moore has been a faithful teacher in this school for eleven years, and has greatly attached herself especially to the young ladies who have passed uncjer her instruction. It is understood that J^rs. Byeis will succeed Mrs. Moore.
Mr. Felsenheld, of^elsenheld tfe Jauriet, is again off for New York this afternoon. Ho goes so often that it is a question at which end of the route is his place of residence. By the way what a wonderful change from twenty-five years ago, when a trip to New York once a year was considered a great undertaking, and only attempted by the big "storekeepers." Now a merchant on Saturday evening picks up his little satchel, containing a clean shirt, a paper collar and a pair of socks, and without the inconvenience even of a change of cars, steps into the city of the Gothamites on Monday morning, fresh and ready fbr business. 1
She put on a few scollops, she did, and as she boosted the old gent out of the house she hung a big market basket on his arm, and tkundered into his palm leaf ear: "Now you old fool, don't you come back without getting that basket filled at "R. W. Rippetoe's White Front Grocery." She was very particular in mentioning the place because all her neighbors—and it seems like almost everybody else go to the "White Front," for their table supplies, for with his immense resources, you are always sure of finding the articles you want if they are in market, and that too of the freshest and best quality at Rippetoe's.
How is tho enormous dobt of tho nation to be paid, is a question that has taxed the great minds of the American people. Tho problem issolved. Reduce tho expenditures by beginning at home, in the family, by buying your boots and shoes of Noyes Andrews, who is now selling at remarkably low rates. Besides, in buying of him you 'are told just what das of goods you are getting. And if at any time he should make a mistake the goods not proving as represented— though this seldom occurs—you can go back, even six months afterwards, blow him up," he will take it goodnaturedly, make it right, and give you abetter bargain next time
Button A. Hamilton, at the Central Bookstore, are making a decided specialty of all that is elegant and tasty, new and nobby in the paper line. Among some new goods just in, they show grosgraia Papetries, eight tents in each package laid papers in all the latest tints and onto, with envelopes to match gres grain in three different shapes or cuis something decidedly nobby in visiting cards and some magnificent wedding outfits. Ladies call at the Central, where the new styles are receivod as fast as out.
Save money, time, labor and trouble by going to the well known establishment of Miller A Arleth, on Sputb Fourth street, for anything in tbe line »f harness and saddles. During the slack trade of the winter months they have made up a large stock, and are now so anxious to sell that you will be surprised at tbe low prioea. They are doing such an immense business in the manufacture of collars that It Is with difficulty tbey can be supplied with rye straw, and advertise fbr this article In to-day's paper
A bachelor editor who bad a pretty unmarried sister, lately wrote to another similarly circumstanced, "Please exchange." The girls wouldn't agree to it. The trouble was they feared they wouldn't buy them one of tbose celebra^ni Mason A Hamlin organs W. H. Pslge A Oo,, are selling on the rental plan at their well stocked music bouse, in the Beach Block. Tbe girls were justified under the circumstances In deciining.
There is a lively competition in the boot and shoe trade Just now, but the
In all earth's places you are right To choose the best you can— Provided that yeu do not try
To crowd some other man." It is not only right, but it is your privilege to chooso the best you can from the large stock of hats and caps Howe & Yates are selling at such low rates to make room for the elegant spring styles soon to be opened.
Mr. Greene, the energetic manager of the Howe Sewing Machine Company in this city is perfecting his arrangements to push things as soon as the roads will permit of travel. At present his business is confined almost exclusively to the city, and such is the favor these machines find in the eyes of our ladies that himself and assistants are by no means idle.
This is the season of the year when the editor shouts up tbe pipe to the foreman, The article I sent up yesterday headed
Spring Has Come" you can hold over." Nevertheless spring will come, and then the ladies will gather with delight over the elegant spring novelties in the way of feminine convenience and adornment that T. H. Riddle will be ready to show them. -^1/
Farmers will find it to their advantage, just at this time when they have leisure, and before the spring work commences, to call at David St. John's, on the west side of the public square, and purchase any harness that may be wanted and have needed repairs attended to. Mr. St. John has a large stock made up, and does all kind9 0f work, substantially, neatly and cheaply.
I guess I'll take this book," remarked a Chicago lady to the clerk of a book store "it's got twice as much gold-leaf on the cover as any of the rest." Speaking of books, L. E. Acker, in the Beach Block, has a very select stock ot the best standard and miscellaneous books all the school-books In use, pocketbooks in great variety, and elegant lines of fancy papers, envelopes, cards, etc.
William M. Barr, the painter wants all the people to know that at his new quarters, No. 607 Ohio street, between Fifth and Sixth, he has on exhibition a fine stock of Wall Papers, and artistic gentlemen to put it on tbe walls, together with the best artists to do all kinds of painting. He keeps a full stock of Lead, Oil, Glass, Varnishes, Brushes and a general stock «f painters' supplies.
Parties contemplating the purchase of a Sewing Machine, should not fail to examine the popular Siuger. It has reached the acme of machines and stands today in the lead, 'being the most durable and so constructed as to be tbe lightest running, and above all, making the handsomest stitch that is to be accomplished on a machine. Office and sales room at 310 Main, between Third and Fonrth-streets. J. A. Marshall, manag®r.
J. A. Burgan is going to take the lead in the livery business the coming season. He is admirably situated in the elegant new brick stable, on South Third street, has a fine lot of test horses, and elegant buggies and carriages. With tbe opening of spring more will be added. He is liberal and accomodating, and constantly winning new customers. Ton will have no cause for regret in giving him your patronage when you want to take a ride.
Maria, have you given tbe goldfish any fresh water?" "No, sir what's the use—they haven't drunk np what's in there yet." That woman might get married, settle down in Terre Haute, and actually not know enough to buy her groceries and table supplies at Arthur Milligan's Marble Front Grocery, on north Fourth street, where she could have such a large and full stock to select from, and where she would find the prices so low. _________
