MCKEE RANKIN made the second and last appearance of his third engagement, at the Terre Haute Opera House, before another array of empty benches, Saturday niglit. He played Rip Van Winkle again, though he did not present it so well as on the previous evening. But lie [could) not be ^blamed, so slim an attendance was enough to cool the artistic ardor of any one.
Rankin is a clever fellow and a good actor, but he has drifted into the hands of incompetent managers, since he dissolved partnership with Parkes, and, in consequence. is on the downward road that leads from success.
WE trust that our thousands of readers will excuse the limited amount of reading matter iu this issue of the Evening GAZETTE, that of Saturday, and, in advance, that of to-morrow, as we are so crowded with advertisements, we can do no better now. We think, however, that the great majority of our readers will be interested in what our business men have to*say on the firsthand third, and fourth, and, in fact, on all our pages.
When the holidays are over we will make up in miscellaneous reading matter where we fall short now.

Boudinot, Junior Warden. George E. Farrington, Warden. Thos. B. Long, Standard Bearer. Moses H. Waters, Sword Bearer. John Abbott, Sentinel. Uriah Shewmaker, 1st. Guard. Asa M. Black, 2d Guard.

IT may be that we will yet reap a harvest of free advertising abroad that will indemnify us for indulging in county extravagance, as appears by the following from the Chicago Inter-Ocean newspaper:
A §250,000 Court House is to be built at Terre Haute. Chicago capitalists may receive the impression that we are plethoric in purSe and decide to come out and invest, though they may possibly take the opposite view of the case, and conclude that we are extravagant.
AT the Congregational Kitchen, Friday night, the most popular editor is to be voted an instrument that is mightier than the sword—a pen, and a gold one at that.
In this age of "rings," when the duty devolves upon editors to show them up, and write them down, wouldn't a fierce bull dog, or a masked battery of Parrott guns be more useful especially since editors use pencils much more than they do pens
THE Saturday Evening Mail appeared on the streets, Saturday evening, arrayed in gorgeous holiday attire and elegantly illustrated, the first case of illustrated journalism we have seen iu the city. The innovation, however, is one that will meet with general approbation, and place the Mail more fully before the people, in its sphere of usefulness, as a firstclass literary and family paper.

TERRE HAUTE, Ind., Dec. 17,1872. Having purchased the staple stock of Dry Goods of Tuell, Ripley & Deming, we propose adding every article necessary to make the assortment the most com* plete in the city. It is our intention to keep a first-class stock, replete with tb'e novelties of the day, and maintain, if we if?! cannot surpass, the popularity of our pre- jjj I decessors. "l "Vi -K
We do not propose to be found second to any Dry Goods house in Terre Haute, and no one shall name prices below our own. A few days will make this apparent.
Tuell, Ripley & Dealing's whole corps of salesmen remain with us, and will be fouud as attentive as heretofore.
Our first innovation on the old firm's' custom is Our trade, shall be for cash. And therefore, our prices will be lower. Soliciting the patronage of the public/jwe promise an early announcement of new goods. "Cheap goods" will be our cry, and it shall not be all cry, as the investigating-^ public will learn.
