IN another column, the GAZETTE reproduces from the Quincy Herald, an article that will interest lady readers, as bearing ou the coming dry goods firm. The Herald is a substantial and reliable newspaper.

IT is rumored that the Express hq an opinion on the liquor question. Is that the Legislature should provide for Jpi improvement in the quality of the artfiple vended? That is the impression the average reader receives from^jj^gastial reading of the profound leader copied in the GAZETTE from its column!, yesterday afternoon.

THE TALE OF A TINKER.

His

Contemptuous Opinion of a Coqrt that Wasn't a Court. There is a young man in this city who while he has mouey in bank, cherishes the laudable ambition of making his ed ucational expenses. During school hours he is ever at his post, attending strictly to the duties of the hour. When out of school he canvasses the city with "furnace and sodder," to turn an honest pen ny, by repairing tinware, battered and perforated by the carelessness and inherent destructiveness of the average servant girl.

In this way he sucoeeds in saving some of his cash on hand while attending college. He also infringed on the business of the tinners, and one of them conceived the brilliant idea of giving the youth a scare, through a practical joke.

A complaint was sworn out by a 'Squire without a commission, but the summons was served by a Constable who had a commission but seemed not to fear any serious consequence. The affrighted tinker appeared before 'Squire Douglass as ksoon as he was summoned. The complaint charged him with tinkering without a license, if the GAZETTE is not mistaken. Billy Duucan appeared for the persecution and Char ley Burton for the defense. John Lamb appeared as a principal persecuting witness, and testified that the tinker had repaired his best Sunday breastpin, having soldered the glass set after the highest style of the art. The question then arose as to whether defendant was, in reality, a tinner or a jeweler, and a con tinuance was granted until another day.

As defendant left the room he was heard to mutter that the whole proceedings were a "goldarned big blow." Hardly had he reached the bottom of the stairway, when he was again accosted by the Constable, who re-arrested him on a charge of contempt of court. Returning with the officer, defendant apologized and was released.

The name of the victim of this joke is not known to the GAZETTE.

Sad Affliction of a Prominent Citizen The GAZETTE has the sad intelligence that L. Ryce, Esq., while attending the Kellogg Concert at Rockville, night before last, was stricken with paralysis cr some similar affection, suddenly losing the power of controlling the muscles of his body. He sank down on his seat when stricken, and commenced to .vomit violent^ this during the singing exercise. Parties near by attended the afflicted gentleman, carefully conveying him to the residence of Mr. Whipple, where he was laid upon a lounge, and medical assistance summoned. The doctors did all in their power to relieve the patient from his perilous condition and succeeded in easing him considerably 'ere this morning. When Miss Kellogg returned Mrs. Ryce and her son, Henry, repaired to the scene of suffering and will return with their charge as soon as possible.

ON or about the fifth of last December, L. Goodman & Co. missed a coat from their sign hooks. Shortly afterward the coat was returned by a party who informed the proprietors that it was left at their house by a young man who had just left for Indianapolis. Search was instituted for the missing man. He was found and confessed that he had done the deed. Under advice of his counsel, however, he plead "not guilty" when arraigned. His name is Thomas McGee.

This morning the case came to trial before a jury in the Criminal Court, Judge Long on the Bench. Mr. Tennant prosecuted in behalf of the State, and Mr. Dunnigan appeared for the defense. Verdict—defendant guilty fined one dollar and costs, imprisonment for two years, and disfranchisement for that term of years. The defendant is an able-bodied and rather prepossessing young man.

Burning of Donliam's Dwelling. Mr. Oscar Rankin, druggist, repi that when a member attempted to li a fluid lamp in the residence of Johffk_. Donbam, Esq., at Cory, yesterday morn* ing, an explosion resulted, bursting, the lamp into fragments and scattjapg the burning fluid over the floor an^prniture. The building was burned aSmn very quickly, Mrs. D. and her children merely making their escape, savipg nothing but their lives. Mr. D^piraa was in Terre Haute. The houswfthd contents were valued at between Jpo and three thousand dollars, oi*

Which there was no

insurance. *^'1 $ THE first eutertain»jnt given under he auspices of the Ch^pl Society, of the First Baptist Churm, occurred at the chyrch last evening,^pursuant to previous publication in the cttj&-press. There was a fair attendance.TA very tasty programme was well rendered, Messrs. Elder, Buckell, Aldefy Clarke, Proctor, Nod3, Emerson, ajJfl Mrs. Austin, Mrs. Buckell, Mrs. Aljfler, Miss Barney and others, partiQjgJtfng. The general opinion prevail^ that the musical season of the Soci$t was well inaugurated. .Tuna|£*E[ENNEDY, oue of the officers and resident managers of the Bessemer

Company of this city, left for Baltifore this P. M. He did so iu response to advice received by telegraph notifying him of the serious illness of his wife.

BUT few people may know it, S*et nevertheless, there will be an election, Tuesday, that will decide whether or no the State of Indiana shall pay some $20,000,000 on internal improvements that don't benefit anybody.

From the Quincy Herald.

Tiie Comma: Dry Goods Firm. We notice that the well-known firm of M. Felsenheld & Co., 600 and 602 Main street, has been dissolved by mutual consent, Louis Felseuheld and J. F. Jauriet retiring. The business will be contiuued by M. and E. Felsenheld, under the firm name of M." Felsenheld & Co. Louis Felsenheld and Mr. Jauritet have leased the finest business building iu Terre Haute, Indiana, and will open there, early in March, a first-class dry goods establishment, one that will compare with the best houses in the country. Both Mr. Felsenheld and Mr. Jauriet are thorough and practical business men and well understand the dry goods trade, and will deserve and win success in their new location. Courteous to all, perfectly reliable and straightforward iu all their dealings, they will soon make their house popular with the citizens of Terre Haute. We take pleasure in recommending them as in every way worthy of public confidence and patronage.
