THE
marriage in high life which was
expected this spring has been declared •"off," and the leaders of society are much disappointed.

THE
streets are in bad condition as
«nay be expected at this season, and the alleys are reeking with filth. These demand early and prompt attention.
GABDKN and flower seeds are beginning to appear in the stores in a very timid manner, but they indicate that, owording to precedent, it is time for spring.
THE
cabbage is the most aristocratic
vegetable just now. "They come high, but we must-have 'em." It now, holds it head at 40 cents, and not a very large head at that.

DRESS makers are almost worked to death preparing handsome garments for the festivities that follow Easter. These lovely robes will be a welcome change -from sack oloth and ashes. I
A NUMBER of our ministers are very anxious that the Courier should give the names of those preachers who, it asserts crowd around the newspaper offices and clamor to have their sermons published.

To facilitate the sweet courtesies of life, a temporary crossing has been con«atructed between the Gasette and Express offices. The west end is composed of free trade and the east end of protection planks. _____

A VERY young miss, in the city, received a genuine love letter from a boy admirer. Her mother asked her, teasJngly, If she should take It to bed with her. "No," was the reply, "I would vrather take my doll," which she did.

THE
Apollo Band attracted much at
tracted much attention on the streets by their fine appearance, and excellent ttnsle on Si. Patricks day and on the day of the opening of Board of Trade. For the latter occasion the band generonsiy gave free service. With the Apollo and the Ringgold, Terre Haute Is well fixed, mustoally, for the stirring campaign of the oomlng manner.
the earnest solicitation of the rector's wife in one of the fashionable Episcopal churches in Chicago, a number of ladies agreed to wear nothing but half mourning, black, grey or white, during Lent. Imagine her consternation on Ash Wednesday when most of them came to church arrayed in handsome black satin, seal skin cloaks and corsage bouquets of the choicest flowers. One lady wore an elegant gray silk, long kid gloves laced with silver cord and tassels, a great bunch of bleeding hearts at her throat and bouquet of roses in her hand. Another alighted from her carriage in a beautiful trailing robe of white cloth, with a great bunch of purple and white clover on her shoulder and at her waist. The pious lady considers her efforts st dross reform a conspicuous failure. ..
THE ladies are almost crazy over the bargainM of all kinds that are displayed in the windows. Goods are cheaper than tbey have been for years, but as money is scarcer than it has been for years, the fair shoppers are in a dilemma. Silks are so reasonable that every lady in the land may be clothed "in silk attire." Stockings are so low (in price) that the dear creatures may indulge their fondest dreams in this article. Handkerchiefs can be sold no cheaper unless they are given way, and all sorts of notions, those charming acceeories to the toilet are marked at bottom prices. Wholesale merchants say this cannot long continue, that there must be a reaction. In the meantime the ladies crowd around the show windows and their "ohs" and "aba" can be heard above all the noise of the street.
OHE of the women's literary clubs, studying Dante's Divinia Comedia, will, at the next meeting, consider forty questions, a few of which we give: What are the characteristics of Dante's style? Who have translated the whole or part of Dante in English? What are the characteristics of Longfellow's translation? Translate all the Latin sentences. Where Is Chlassl? Why should the Divinia Comedia have been to Longfellow a congenial theme? Explain the origin and signification of the elevation of the host? Explain the lines, "And the Great Rose upon its leaves displayed Christ's Triumphs." At the close of the exercises, backs will be in waiting to convey the exhausted ladies home and their husbands will meet them at the door with a cup of tea and a whiskey sling.
THE Hospital is completed and in splendid working order but there is an unexpected number of patients, about sixty at the present time, all unable to pay. The entire burden of this great charity falls upon Mr. Hulman, which seems a little exorbitant as the expenses are enormous. Since it is an institution solely for the public good, it seems obligatory upon the city to give it some aid, even if it be but to furnish gas and water. Mr. Hulman will never ask assistance, but a great number of our citizens are honorable and generous enough to recognize the obligation, and the subjeot will probably come up in the Council at an early date.
ALBERT GALL, the great house-fur-nishing man at Indianapolis, proposes to fill his two immense show windows with an exhibition of needle-work by ladies of that city. On the second Saturday in May the ladies of Indianapolis are to decide by ballot who is entitled to the prize, an elegant Turkish rug. Cannot some of our enterprising merchants ma^e a similar offer to the ladles of Terre Haute, many of whom particularly excel in such work?
INQUISITIVE persons wonder why it is that the hacks seem to do so thriving a business at all hours of the night, from dawn till daylight. And these same persons inquire why it is that they so often stop and pick up a lone, lorn woman on a street corner, without bag or baggage. Information thankfully receieved for the benefit of the clubs and sewing societies.
THE
Board of Trade now numbers 266
members. Mr. Collett, in consequence of other engagements, has resigned the Presidency, and he is succeeded by Vice President Hervey, who has been acting as President with great efficiency since the first meeting. W. L. Kidder was elected Ylce President.

years ago on the 17th of March the Main street wagon bridge aoroes the Wabash was purchased of the Bridge Company, and made a free bridge. The purchase money was obtained by selling bonds, and this week the last of these, 945,000, were redeemed and the debt wiped out. And of such is the County of Vigo.

WITH
AMUSEMENTS.
After along rest in amusements, we have quite a run of attractions on hand for a week, after which there is very little booked at the Opera House. The comedy of "7-20-8" was played last night to an audience better in quality than numbers. It is a breezy, rattling comedy, full of bright dialogueand funny situations, interpreted by a very meritorious company—none of them stars, but balancing up evenly, and giving a pleasing entertainment. It will be played this afternoon and again tonight.
Next Monday evening the "little electric battery," Miss Lizzie Evans, will play "Chip" in the drama of "Fogg's Ferry." She has been playing at Indianapolis this week, and the Times says:
Miss Evans, who has never been seen here as a xtiir before, is a bright little aoubrette, much above the average, and her characterization of Chip vos orginal and altogether a pleasing performance. She is a vivacious, rollicking little woman, and acts with an abandon and naturalness that entitles her to a prominent place among actresses in her line of business. Her yoice is uot strong, but is sweet and well trained, and hei singing and dancing created considerable enthusiasm and admiration.
On Tuesday pvening, Harry Watson's comedy company will present the humorous comedy, entitled "1,000 Wrinkles," said to be "the funniest of all funny comedies.'* The Brooklyn Eagle says:
Those who have seen Harry Watson in his specialties for years past, thought that he was in them as funny as a man could possibly be. But he must be seen in his new comedy, "1,003 Wrinkles," to realize what fun is. For two and a half hoars, wit and his peculiar humor kept an audience in a continuous roar. Never were more comical situations put into apiece than in this coinedy. and the author has succeeded in writing parts that fit the Ssveral performers like a glove.
A year ago Mrs. Langtry made a tour of the west, and visited this city. She came as a celebrated beauty, displaying herself at so much a head—and she got rich in that way. She is coming this way sgain, and her original success as a drawing card follows her. She' has learned wisdom and has settled down to the honest work of her profession, and the papers tell us there has been a wonderful improvement in her acting. Next Wednesday evening she will appear at the opera house 4n W. S. Gilbert's comedy of "Pygmalion and Galatea." The New York Herald says:
The lines on which Mr. Gilbert fashioned the character of Galatea are simir le enough. A beautiful woman, innocent of the world's ways, but a woman in every emotion of the sex, is called from the Pentelican marble to show how necessary it is to be sophisticated in order to live among the world's people. Innocence Is all very well in the abstract, but in the concrete it won't da The sculptor who has caused the gods to endow his statue with human breath is glad to have her turned to stone again, no matter how good her intentions uiay be. As in all Mr. Gilbert's satire you are conscious here that a man is somewhere in the background sneering at the effort to be good. He preaches indirectly, however, that the world is about good enough as it is, and that is some comfort to worldly men and women. Whatever his morality, lie has made Galatea as lovely as amusing. Sincerity is the keynote of her character, and from the first it was seen that the fair English woman had caught the spirit of her part. Site was womanly in her warmth of love, natural in her innocence, and not wanting in the moderate tinge of passionateness which the part calls for when she makes the sacrifice of Iter new state of being to the man she loves. Her sens*, of the comedy of the part was keen, and her childlike gravity no less than her grace brought this home to her auditors. When she first appeared upon the pedestal, white and fair from her hair to her dainty sandals, a murmur of pleasure passed through the house. When the curtain again was parted and she stepped forth It was seen th she was less of a statue and all of a woman, with her own brown hair tightly colled on her head. But rightly, Indeed, she took care uot to forget to be statuesque though no Isnger a statue. Herein, Indeed, Mrs. Langtry showed great progress for though her attitude made all through the play a succession of beautiful pictures, they had the air of of unstudied grace. Her elocution was good, though a trifle marred by a tendency to linger on her words, but her voice is pleasantly modulated, and her points were delivered with fair skill.
IT was, to say the least, in questionable taste for the new minister at St. Stephen's to make such haste in proclaiming contrary views right on the heels of Mr. Hummer's attack on amusements. It smacked oj the politician's trick to curry favor and catch the soreheads of the other party. Whatever may have been his purpose, only one will be thought of by the public, viz: If you cannot danee, play cards and go to the theatre in other orthodox churches, come into the Episcopal where ycu may have all these privileges. Ministers are generally supposed to be courteous to the opinions of one another and thus maintain friendly intercourse. While we approve of free criticisms on Rev. Hummer's sermon, yet we recognize in him a devout Christian, an earnest man and a thorough scholar. He has the respect of all his brother clergymen ill the city who have kiiown him intimately, though they may not agree with his rigid views of amusement.
