TO-DAY the Weekly GAZETTE goes out to its thousands of readers, well filled with interesting and instructive matter.

THE Hon. Simon Hirsch and Frank Danaldson, Esq., have entered into a copartnership for the purpose of practicing law.

CARRICO'S "flying fillies" have the epizootic, but he is taking good care of the animals, and they will not be likely to suffer excrutiating agony.

Mr. Vrydagh and the Commissioners. In another column will be found a communication from Mr. Vrydaugh, addressed to Mr. Dowling and others, (meaning the committee of fifteen, most likely,) wherein the writer gives notice that he will exonerate the County Commissioners if he js reasonably remunerated for his services in drawing up a plan of anew Court House, as instructed by said Commissioners.

We fail to see what the" Committee of Fifteen or the county has to do with this little matter" between Mr. Vrydagh and the Commissioners of the county for we take it that the contract.to prepare such drawings, if there was any such, was between the Commissioner?, as individuals, and Mr. Vrydagh, as the records of the Commissioners Court fail to show any order for such services. Mr. Vrydagh certainly cannot hold the county liable

rfor

the individual acts of the Commissioners. Had they made any sueh order, the same must needs appear on record to show that the Commissioners transacted the business in their official capacity.

While Mr. Vrydagh asks remuneration for his services, he also demands that he be allowed to retain the drawing.

If a customer purchases an article from a merchant and pays that merchant the money for the article, is it not usual for the customer to have posession of the property for which he has paid his money

MCKEE RANKIN commences a two evenings' engagement at the Opera House in this city on the evening of the 20th inst. He is having great success in his impersonations of Rip Van Winkle, at Iudianapolis. Now that Mr. Jefferson has retired from the "stage, there will be a lively competition for the honors of the piece between Rankin and Robert McWade. The latter, however, has a version of his own, some parts of which we like better than that of Mr. Jefferson, and also acted by Mr. Rankin.

TOYS for the million are being received at the various Terre Haute bazaars The proprietors of these T. H. bazaars should say so through the Evening GAZETTE to thousands of readers. We will guarantee them over one thousand regular subscribers right here in the city. It is needless to argue that for every subscriber, the GAZETTE has five readers,for the fact of it being an evening paper and taken at the residence of subscribers is sufficient to assure everybody of the fact.

AGENT OF STATE SHANNON is. preparing an elaborate report of the business transacted by him for the State to present to the regular session of the Indiana Legislature. His report will be quite voluminous and is being neatly prepared for publication by his clever cashier, Mr. Anderson.*

Mr. Shaunon's term of service as Agent of State will expire on the 9th of February, and inasmuch as the office has been abolished, he will have no successor.

WE learn from the Evansville Courier that J. L. Thornton, the agent of the E. & C. R. R., at Princeton, drew $18,500 in the Louisville lottery. The Courier further says:

Mr. Thornton has been in the employ of his company for many years, and is one of the most efficient officers on the road.

It is gratifying then that Mr. T. was one of the lucky ones—especially gratifying to Mr. T.

THE Criminal Court, Hon. Thomas B. Long on the bench, is in session today. The case of the State vs. William Stumph, wherein defendant is charged with grand larceny, is on trial before a jury, Messrs. Pierce and Tennant for the State, and Messrs. Allen & Mack and Davis & Davis for the defense.

The court room was crowded about noon, and much interest was manifested in the case.

A COTEMPORARY says that Mario's work has been enormous, as will be seen by a calculation recently made, by which it appears that he has appeared on the stage in 935 performances. In operas by Donizetti, 225. times Meyerbeer, 170 Kossini, 143 Verdi, 122 Bellini, 82 Gounod, 70 Mozart, 68 Flotow, 30 Cimarosa, 12 Auber, 12 Costa, 5 Halevy, 4 Ricci, 1 Mercadante, 1.

SOME clever local artist contributed a caricature of mammoth proportions and intricate grouping, to the window of the Central Book Store, which has attracted much attention from passers by. In fact "the thing" is indescribable, and we would advise our readers to go and see for themselves.

PULLING- stumps from the Court House square with oxen, was the cheerful occupation of Mr. Lewis Puckett, of Honey Creek township, fifty-one years ago, according to the Journal. He'd better trot out his cattle and pull out the stumps of Joe. Blake's cigars, now.

THE masquerade ball at Dowling Hall this evening will bejlargely attended, judging from the large number of tickets sold, and the costumes that have been ordered. Toute & McKennan have "a pretty large attendance at their masquerades as a general thing.

WHAT was the matter with the police force that they should have a secret investigation before the Board is the question that agitates Wall street to itsprofoundest depths.

WHEN will the Terre Haute grocers publish a black list, and how many names will they have on said list

BUSINESS at the Station House will be 9omewhat improved, we hope. For ways that are dark, that institution should not be so peculiar, as has been reported.

MR. JAMES NAYLOK, of the money or der office, Terre HautePostoffice, informs us that the business in his department for the year of 1872, will largely exceed that of 1871.

PAT HALEY'S horse while suffering fit of temporary insanity, from the effects of the prevailing epidemic, kicked one side out of the barn, went out in the lot laid down and died.

THE ^dispatches to the Evening GAZETTE are an important featur^ of the publication, and compare favorably with any other evening paper published on the continent. We dou't want any postal telegraphy.

IF the Indianapolis correspondent of the Sullivan Democrat is correct Mr. Speaker E-.lwards would not permit Mr Attorney General Hanna to enjoy his Havana in the House of Representatives, when the House was in session.

THERE are over twenty-three hundred deposits on the books of the Savings' Bank. Mr. Cashier Martin is casting up the interest account for the six months ending January 1,1873. While thus engaged he hasn't time to eat his meals.

THE grocers' black list, of Indianapoiis, for December, contains 4,000 names Think of it, 4,000 people in a city of 50,000 inhabitants who won't pay their grocery bills, preferring to have their names published to the world as "beats."

Prepared for Christmas.—The Terre Haute Furniture Company, 18 and 20 South Fourth street,have a large and elegant assortment of goods for the Holidays. Rockers and Easy Chairs of every description, from the little child's Chair up to the large Folding Chair, worth $40. Every color in Parlor Suits. We notice something new and handsome in Parlor Styles, such as Green Hair Cloth Setts. We advise our readers to call on them before buying any article of Furniture, aud look through their extensive and varied stock, which they are selling cheaper than the same kind of goods can be bought for any place in the city.

We are constantly in receipt of letters from country merchants asking us if we will sell them goods at wholesale as low as we are selling them at retail. They say our prices are often below what they can buy the same goods at wholesale in Chicago, Cincinnati, Philadelphia or New York. The claim therefore that we have frequently made that we often sell goods at retail less than other merchants pay for them at wholesale, is shown to be true by the testimony that comes from a portion of our competitors. We—Foster Brothers—are still selling a handsome yard wide Muslin at 10 cents. Heaviest Unbleached Muslin made 12£ cents. Handsome sets of Furs from $3.00 up. Shawls from $2.50 up. Dress Goods in splendid variety at popular prices, Balmoral Skirts $1.00 up.j? Water-proofs $1.00 up. Blankets $2.50 a pair, up, Flannels, Jeans, Cloakings, &c., at equally as low prices.

The Boston Fire destroyed all the Boots and Shoes on hand in that city. The immense loss of stocks has had the effect of increasing the price of Boots and Shoes from ten to twenty per cent.
