How TO BUILD UP OUR CITY.—Xever was there a spring in the history of our city when there was so flattering evidences of improvements as the one that is now opening. Upon every hand is to be seen evidences of growth, such as the erection of business and dwelling houses. Our business men are second to none in the country whether they wield capital or implements of manufacture, all contribute their share to the improvement and beautifying of our city. This is what we are pleased to see. Every citizen of a city should be interested in building it up. Every capitalist of a town ought to use his means in stimulating some wealth-producing industry. The man who invests his money in establishments that produce plows, threshers, reapers, mowers, furniture, paper, hubs, spokes, shingles, woolen goods, &c., &c., is a local public benefactor. There is no mistake about this. All such enterprises naturally stimulate the growth and add to the wealth of the communities in which they are established. Every dollar kept at home has its advantages more or less, for every citizen. The most wealthy and prosperous cities and towns in the world are those who work upon the co-operative plan—that aim to build up their own merchants, manufacturers, mechanics, laborers, &c. Every cent diverted from home is so mueh money taken from the pockets of home dealers, home producers, home consumers, and lessens, to a greater or lesser extent, the ability of home men to meet their liability. It gratifies us beyond our feeble powers of expression to see the rapid strides our city is making toward the accomplishment of the desirable object of improving and beautifying it.
AN IMPORTANT MATTER.—TheAmerican Association for the Advancement of Science hold a great National Convention at Indianapolis in August, and during the time of the sitting of the convention the members thereof will excurse to this city, and we would suggest that the proper authorities take the matter in hantTand see to it that the members are entertained while here as they will be during their stay at Indianapolis. Yesterday afternoon a meeting was called in the Board of Trade rooms in that city for the purpose of appointing a committee and sub-committee to receive and entertain the members of the American Association during the session of the convention. Our city will be greatly honored by a visitation from such a learned and honorable body, I and no effort should be spared that will tend to make their reception and enterI tainment while here, one worthy our city, and the distinguished gentlemen who compose the Association. Though, unlike Indianapolis, we have no Board of Trade, we do have a large number of energetic business men, who are not second to any to be found in the Capital, in receiving and entertaining distinguislied gentlemen from abroad. We trust that some action will be taken in thi3 important matter without delay.
New Albany is to be honored with a like 1 visitation, and let our hospitable people see to it that we are not behind that city, which is up to the times, to say the least, in acts of hospitality.
A GREENY'S EXPERNCE WITH HOT I SLAW.—A verdant cuss, and evidently from the rural districts took dinner at one of our hotels yesterday, an(Pwhen about finishing up a "square meal" he made a voracious assault upon the contents of a saucer near at hand, which he said he supposed contained corn starch, flavored with hair oil, and which he tasted, which resulted in the most excrucriating contortions of physiognomy. He tasted it again with like results, and coming to the conclusion that it had soured, be made a raid upon the sugar bowl, which was near at hand, and deliberately emptied about half its contents into the supposed corn starch pudding with the hair oil flavoring." He again essays a taste of it with alike facial display as at first. Finally he called one of the handsome and ever attentive waiting girls to him and thus appealed unto her judgment: "I say, gal, arn't this 'ere stuff in this 'ere sasser corn starch puddin' with hair ile in it?" The girl suppressed a threatened outburst of laughter, and told him that was "hot slaw."
Greeny threw down the spoon and gazed at the girl, then at the "hot slaw," and finally gave vent to his pent-up feelings, in "Gol durned ef I diddent think it wuz corn starch puddin," and vacated the (lining hall in three strides, by actual count, since whieh time he has not been heard from.
A SHOCKING SPECTACLE.—An individual named James Carroll, claiming to hail from Dayton, O., made his advent into the "Buckboard City"Saturday. He had only been in town a short time when he exhibited quite a disposition to punish the bad whisky to be found in Sibleytown. Last evening he was indulging his revenge upon this beverage at John Smith's saloon, in Sibleytown, when he became involved in an altercation with one Dick O'Boyle, who remodeled his physiogomy in a manner that was frightful to see, and then made his escape. Officers McCabe, Lentz and Harry Sibley, hearing a disturbance soon arrived upon the scene and lodged Carroll in the Station House for the night, where he was out danger of the "maulers" of the irrepressible Dick. This morning Carroll appeared iu Court to make a complaint against O'Boyle. He presented a most hideous and piteous spectacle. His face had the appearance of having been stamped with the heel of O'Boyle or some one else, or beaten \frith a bottle. Some of the loungers in the courtroom suggested that Carroll had been having a "head put on him." If that is what is meant by having ahead put on one, we don't want any of it. Such results grow out of the use of bad whisky generally.
A LIVELY MILL.—Dick O'Boyle, who curtained Jemmy Carroll's eyes and crimsoued his face in such a horrible manuer last night, got into a difficulty With three or four men in Molly Walker's Restaurant, on Main street, last afternoon and had one of his "peepers" draped in mourning. We did not learn the cause of the difficulty, but suppose it was caused by the use of "benzine," as that causes about all the difficulties of that pature that happens.
THE hearts of the fair sex, as a general thing, are so adamant, that diamonds must be used if oue wishes to cut his way into the female heart.
A NAUGHTY Chicago editor, who evidently "knows how it is himself," says that babies are the coupons attached to matrimony, and the interest is due at random.
GUSHING PERPLEXITY.—There is said to be a somewhat gushing perplexity in society just now in regard' to the two most conspicuous styles of dress—the dignified and elegant Grecian with severe outlines and heavy folds, and the airy, fluttering style, gay with ruffles, flounces, and furbelows. Favor and popularity is about equally divided.

CARPETS are very cheap this year, and we intend the public shall know it

and very likely moth-eaten and damaged. Buy only new, clean fresh goods, and
what is equally important, buy only well-known makes. It costs Carpet Stores
twenty cents on a dollar for every yard of Carpet they sell, and so in order to make
any show at all of competing with us they arc forced to buy shoddy and unknown
makes of Carpets,-which they endeavor to palm off on their customers as "Hand
Loom" or "Family" Carpets. We keep only the best brands, snch as Rifious, Lowells, and Hartfords, in the
