A PAPER FOR TIIF. PKOPLE.

WELL we've bad rain, hail, wind, sleet, snow—now what will you have?

ANOTHER evidence of th« return of oonfidence—bananas are selling two for nickel.

MERCHANTS report considerable Improvement in sales, and- are hopeful of a fair Spring trade.

PNEUKOHIA IS quite prevalent, princi pally among children. It is not well at this season of the year to be careless about bad colds. i' .•

yet the trembling year unconflrmd. And winter oft at eve resumes the breeze, nniiia the pale morn, and bids his ilrivlng Deform the day dellghtlww.

THE matrimonial market, as will be seen by oar Marriage License report, is flat. A revival is looked fi r, however, immediately after Lent.

THE sample drinking fountain is to be erected on the northwest corner of Fourth and Walnut streets. That is a very good place, but a little inconvenient for tne sedentary editors of Printing House Square.

COUNTRY wagons are beginning to come into town loaded with young maple trees, which are sold at fifty cents eaeh, for "setting out." The general experience seems to be that trees from a nursery do better and grow faster. They cost about the same.

THE weather was rather cool for prolonged out-door enthusiasm, but thejol ification, Monday night, over the inauguration of President Hayes, was pretty general, nevertheless. A torchlight pro-' cession and speaking at the Terre Haute House, by Col. Thompson, constituted the chief part of the programme.

AFTER a protracted illRess of three years, Mrs. Philip Wyatt died Tuesday night at eleven o'clock, of chronic inflammation of tho stomach. She has been a great sufferer and could no doubt almost welcome death as a happy release, though she had always borne her Bufferings with exemplary fortitude and patience.

"Judge" Asa M. Black was formally admitted to the Terre Haute bar, Monday, and has opened an office for the practioe of the law. Mr. Black has an extensive acquaintance, is highly esteemed by everybody, and will undoubtedly command a large share of business. For eight years he has held the position of Deputy County Clerk, and is universally conceded to have been one of tho moist obliging and thoroughly compotent porsons ever employed about tho office.

A COLONY consisting of about forty persons, principally Germans, will leave this city within tho next week for California. They intend to settle in the interior of the State, about seven m'.les from Tulur City. Most of them will leave their families here for tho present —probably till next season. Wo have not been able to obtain the names of all those who are going, but understand John II. Dlekemper and his son Joseph to be of the no tnber. Dr. Oscar Z9chokke is already thero. Terre Haute loses some good citizens by this exodus,

—Some merchants, without principle, allow jealousy at thH success of a competitor, to so fill their small souls, that they resort to the dishonorable trick of buying imitations of goods offered by those competitors and abuse the goods, not to their own profit, but their successful neighbor's injury. Such is the nature of some of the tricks played against the live notion iirm of Hughes A Reed, but "a mean trick always hurts its aut/ior" and benefits the would be victim.
