FASHION AND GOSSIP.
Many ladies in full dress suffer more in the shape of high-heeled shoes, tight drosses and badly placed hair pins than any amount of pleasure can couiponsato fc r.—Indianapolis News.
Yet ladies will endure the most excrutiating torture in their devotion to fashion. If they were but half so devoted to church, what a world of piety this would be
Question. 'Who was that disconsolate old bachelor at a certain mammoth palace holiday toy establishment trying to cll'ect the purchase of a new face? We don't want to tell, though we will say that liis own was so homely that after forty years of persistent though futile endeavors to make an impression on the heart of woman, he dispaired of ever succeeding in his seach unless he procured anew face. Heuce his visit to the toy store. He already had a set of false teeth, and was negotiating for a sheepskin nose when he concluded that he would get a false face at wholesale rates.
Mr. Abe Levy, a merchant of |Vincennes, and aMiss Brown, of the same city, were betrothed Sunday evening last, in the presence of their friends. Having witnesses present, there will be no difficulty in securing evidence in case of a breach of promise case. Ladies and gentlemen contemplating matrimony would do well to profit by this and have witnesses present when the betrothal Is made, to insure the keeping of the solemn vow. However, we admit that we know nothing of the practical working of this system, but on general principles we think it must be a commendable one, though it is novel.
DRAMATIC AND OTHERWISE.
Minstrel night. Nilssonis singing in Italian opera at the Academy of Music, New York.
Lydia Thompson aud troupe are registered at the Louisville Hotel. John E. Oweus is playing the "The People's Lawyer" at Booth's Theater, Now York. He has, no doubt, found the "bar'l o' apple sass."
Mr. J. Levy, the renowned cornet soloist, who will be remembered by many of our music-loving citizens as having delighted them with his harmouious melodies ou the cornet when Adclade Phillipps and her concert troupe were here, is delighting the New Yorkers at the Grand Opera House. He is undoubtedly the most accomplished cornet player in the world.
THE Vinceunes Sun of late date says: Rov. J. L. Gay will soon deliver his lecture on the "Great Fires ot the World," at Sullivan and Terre Haute. We advise the people at those points to hear this lecture by all means, as it is entertaining and instructive in a high dogree.
In another column of the GAZATTE will be found a synopsis from the «Stm of Mr* Gay's lecture recently. We, however, must confess that we have not heard of his coming here.
This evening the Morris Bros'. Minstrels, of Boston, will make their first and only appearance in this city, and that too at the grand Opera House. Of course, judgiug from past first-class companies, they will be greeted with a full house.

agent^)f Lew Johnson's original plantation minstrels, called at our sanctum, Having just arisen from a sickbed at Danville. He informs us that the company which he represents will appear in this city, at the Opera House, Friday and Saturday evenings, Dec. 8th aud 9th, the illness of the agent as stated above, preventing earlier notice of the entertainment. The company consists of eighteen performers, all genuine darkies, formerly slaves in the South. The brass band with this organization is said to be one of the best ever organized by a traveling minstrel company.
The gentle Matilda Heron, the actress, whose strange antics at a St. Louis theater were reported in the telegraphic columns of the GAZETTE not long since, has published a card in the New York papers denying that she was intoxicated or insane as reported, but was simply endeavoring to entertain the audience while a tardy actor was being viorously searched for. She succeeded in convincing the audience and the reading public that her mind was as rambling as the tardy actor was in person, and that is about all she did. Matilda had better let the card business alone, for there is no better evidence of insanity than for a non-professioual to attempt to refute press charges by card writing.

The Lecture of Mr. Gay.
Last Friday evening, at the request of many of our citizens, Rev. J. L. Gay delivered a second time his lecture on the "Great fire3 of the world and their results." We had not the pleasure of listening to the first effort of Mr. Gay, and can not,therefore,say whether he had improved or not on his first trial. At any rate, we were satisfied with the lecture, and the audience seemed to be deeply interested in the vivid descriptions given by the reverend gentleman. He gave accurate and glowing accounts, especially of the three great tires of Loudon, Moscow and Chicago, in the order mentioned. He handled the subject in such a manner as at once to show that he was a thorough master of it, and held his audience in close attention up to the end of the lecture.
Mr. Gay has a good voice, and enunciates distinctly, so as to be heard clearly by all. Some of his sentences were delivered eloquently, and seemed to affect the audience sensibly. In his remarks on the Chicago fire the lecturer scouts the idea of Mrs. O'Leary's cow being the cause of the conflagration and endorses the theory that the burning of the Garden City of the West was the work of devilish iucendaries, acting under instructions from the Internationale Societie. This theory now is believed by many, aud as time passes, the belief that Chicago was fired by the demons will become stronger. We are glad to have spent an hour listening to Mr. Gay, feeling that it was one of profit and pleasure. We understand it is his intention to deliver this lecture in different towns during the winter. We bespeak for him the favorable consideration of the public and the press wherever he goes.— Vincennes Sun.
WHEN time brings us to the restingplaces of life—and we all expect them, and in some measure attain them—when we pause to consider its ways and to study its import, we then look back over the waste ground which we have left behind us. Is a bright spot to be found there? It is where the star of love has shed its beams. Is there a plant, a flower, or any green thing visible? It is where the smiles and tears of affection have been spent—where some fond eye met our own—some endearing heart was clasped in ours? Take these away, and what joy has memory in retrospection, or what delight has hope in the future prospect? When Paris was wounded, CEnon alone could heal his bleeding wouuds. Love has power to heal. We love to love we live to love it is the heart's food and nourishment, and the soul's highest happiness and bliS3. Some other beiug must be blended with our own, else our existence is objectless, our natures unavailing and that is wanting which wealth, and honor, and pomp, and pride, and glory, all together, can never supply. No human power or ingenuity can invent or suggest any lasting .meaus of satisfaction without this elixir of life, which sweetehs, sustains, and perpetuates it. The bosom which does not feel it is cold the mind which does not conceive it is dull the philosophy which rejects it is false and the only true religion in the world has pure, reciprocal, aud undying love for its basis.
A DISPATCH from Washington announces that a resolution will be introduced in the House of Representatives at an early day inquiring by what authority President Grant suspended the writ of habeas corpus in South Carolina. It is the opinion of several eminent legal gentlemen, who have carefully examined the question, that power was not conferred upon the President by the Ku Klux law of the last session.
CHARL.ES LAMB was in the habit of wearing a white cravat, and, in consequence, was sometimes taken for a clergyman. Once, at a dinner table, among a large number of gests, his white cravat caused such a mistake to be made, and he was called on to say grace. Looking up and down the table, he asked, in an inimitable lisping manner, "Is there no cl-clergyman present?" "No, sir," answered a guest, "Then," said Lamb," bowing his head, "let us thank God!"
