WHEN persona declare that virtue is its own reward they often forget to add, and its only reward. Virtue is an excellent thing no doubt, but few perons seem inclined to invest in it in these days when the tax on whisky is 90 cent*, and making it crooked is as easy as lying. As a commodity virtue does not pay, though it must be admitted that since the day3 of Bristow the paths of the transgressors are getting thornier and harder.

A GENTLEMAN boasting the name of Licuenslein, imagines that he knows something of lions. He says that if a person meets a lion and will stand perfectly still, even though the animal crouches to make the spring, that spring will not be hazirdedif the man has only nerve enough to remain motionless as a statue, and look steadily at the lion. The animal, he further says, will hesitate under this scrutiny, rise slowly, retreat some steps, looking earnestly about him, lie down, again retreat^ till moving thus, by degrees, he gets quite out of what he seems to feel as the magic circle of man's influence, he then takes flight in the utmost haste. The world, at large, would take more stock in Mr. Lichenstein's theory, and entertain a higher regard for him as a man of truth and veracity, if in the presence of a reputable witness, he would try that little experiment on some good healthy Nemean lion. At present Mr. Licheustein must be considered a disreputable joker, bent on speculating iu cemetery property.

Once upon a lime "the art of letter writing used to stand high on the list of genteel accomplishments. This was not later ago than the last generation. In that time not only were its rules strictly laid down, and mod els prepared for the use of youth, but manuels were published, giving specimens of forms fit for all correspondence.

This was done, tco, in shape and form which set at defiance the axiom of the elder Weller. The letters of our forefathers were lengthy iu proportion to the estimation in which the correspondent was held. Take any one of the famous models of style tnd this will be evident, and the cynical Frenchman's definition of language, as invented to conceal thought, finds its verification in those stilted productions. Nobody, nowadays, would venture to write in the style of Lord Chesterfield or Mme. De Sevigne, either to man or women. The shape of the letter, also, even down to our.pwn day, partook of the formality of its contents. At an earlv period of its history, the letter was a ponderous "missive," as its name imports—a tulky parcel' sent by a special messenger, who was ordered on the back theory to run, ride, and deliver it to the party to whom it was addressed. It was a priveleged communication, employed only by Ilia rich and great, and which the common people were no expected to use. The introduction of a Government postal system was the first blow at the aristocracy of letter writing, making that universal which was before special.

But this was only the first step in that direction. The ordinary letter sealed with its red wafer, and into which the prying eyes of the village postmasters so often, peeped, was soon superseded by the envelope, which secured the inviolability of the contents from all eyes but those for which tbey were intended

When that stage was reachsd perfection seemed attaiued. But progress, which spares no old institution, has wrought the same change in letter-writing as in locomotion, making both much faster, and changing the vehiele. The telegraph first

introduced an innovation as to form, and style, for since that invention the style of lettfer-writing has insensibly charged, accomodating itself to the expression of the most meaning in the fewest words. The lover now writes as curtly and succinctly to his lady love as though he were sending an order by telegraph to buy so many bushels of corn or tierces of land. This is true, even of the messages which boquets bear. Flights of fancy and flowers of speech no longer flourish in that once luxuriant, but now barreu field. The telegraph has triumphed over the letter, and cipher hides the meaning of the private communication. Yet iu all these shapes of letter-writing referred to the element of privacy was preserved. None but writer and correspondent were allow ed to see or understand the contents of the communication.

But a startling stride from the old regime has been taken in the opposite direction. Willi the introduction of the postal card, privacy has become a lost art. The public, like the chorus on the old Greek stage, is taken into the confidence of writers, and the postal card is open to the inspection of ail curious eyes. All that run may read it if leisure and opportunity serve. On its open face you may descry the nirme of the person to whom it is addressed. On its narrow back you may plainly see its contents. The faster people, who will succeed our fast generation, will doubtless desire something stili more convenient. Some improvement on this method of correspondence is undoubtedly needed, The 'inconveniences which wero predicted as sure to arise from their use when their introduction was first broached have all beeu realized. The finer feelings, and the dubious credit of the nomadic boarder, have been grossly outraged by them. Dunning letters thus openly sent, and laid by the landlady upon the breakfast table by his plate, has ruined many a breakfast. Her vigilant eye, he is sure, has eaten up the contents, and made them jaundiced

They have beyond all peradventare'ruined the health of many a post office clerk, whom the conscientious discharge of his arduous duties feels it incumbent on him to read them all, at the sacrifice of his hours of recreation and,even if h» has to sit up at niyht to get through with them. How many young, blooming, and beautiful clerks have gone to their tomb3 from over-work, on their account no chronicle can tell, for postal cards have not yet come into use as monuments.

But last and to th ail is their level of mere vehicles for the conveyance of villification and vituperation. What thrust have postal cadrs given to our good brother Beecher,—him of Brooklyn,—to his great inconveience and his discomfiture. Every hair brained idiot in tbe laud, it would appear, has felt it his duty to write to brother Beecher, and ventilate as largely as the narrow limits, of the fortunately smtjll postal cardi will admit, his belief iii his^gtiilt- To that class their cheapness commends them as well as their publicity, and they are making vile use of them in villification of a man whose chief crime in their eyes is the fact that being greater and wiser than they, he will not boast of his being so low. Some inventive genius must contrive some new postal card, cheap, convenieu, and private. Therein is a tide, which taken at its flood, will carry some one to fortune.

Personal Paragraphs.'

.Toe Nirdlinger, of the "Bakrupt Clothiers," leaves here for tho East, Sunday night to purchase goods.

Mr. Daniel Dadman, of Charleston, 111., was in the city yesterday.

Mrs. Dunn, cf Charleston, 111., is in the city. Baker, of the Posteffice Lobby, first to get all tbe Eastern periodicals, daily, weekly and monthly.

Mr. E. Jacoby has purchased stock of liquors and having' fitted up in fine style a saloon at Vincennes will remove there on next Tuesday to live.

Mrs. Jos. Griffith, of Charleston, III., has been spending a few days in the city, visiting her sister, Mrs. A. Ritchey. She returns home this afternoon.

Divid Smith wishes us to state that he has not got a new rifle and that he never practices on Sunday shooting it. He says that as to his shooting wild and coming near hitting some ladies that it is a big mistake. In fact, Mr* Smith even expresses it stronger than that. Ho will venture that he can put a ball through the hat of our Bagdad correspondent who wrote the item at 60 yards.

S. R. Baker, i! is currently reported has really struck a big thing in thoso "Big Bonanza" cigars.

Kicketts, of the St. Charles saloon, corner Third and Ohio, will set out to his customers to-night, some excellent turtle soup.

N. Katzenbach's new cigar storo, noarly opposite the Post Office, as recently refitted is one of the handsomest stores of the kind in the State of Indianna.

W. T. Campbell, the East end feed

store man. will start for Lebanon, Ky., to get married, next Monday morning

Messrs. Garvin, Heinly & McCos key, of the National Hotel, have just finished two elegant sleeping apartments, and a large drawing-room constructed in the space formerly occupied by the office, and reading room. The parlor is one of the finest in the city. It is carpeted, and finished in elegant style. The walls are decorated with numerous exquisite oil paintings, not chromos, but real oil paintings. Tbey have placed in this drawing room, a new, and elegant Knabe piano from the establishment ofL. Kissner, intended for ths use of guests who are musically inclined. The proprietors of the National are determined to make their hotel equal to any in the State. Its popularity with the traveling public, is steadily on tho increase.

Con C'ronin still deals out large quantities ot that O. F. C. Taylor, sour mash whisky, at his popular saloon, corner of Eighth, :iud Main. The more his customers get. of it the more they want, which is not strange considering the fact that sour mash i3 the best whisky manufactured.

Our exchanges are full of gloomy forebodings concerning the supply of provisions for the poor during the coming winter. Many go so far a3 to predict that a large number must iaovits.b!y starve to death, which is perfectly horrid. However, there is one thing sure, Eugene Eruning does not allow any of his patrons to starve on the contrary, they are all growing round and fat, which is an unmistakable evidence of good living. Bruning sets before his patrons everything which the market affords.

The trotting and racing season is past. Burlington, Fancher and Hipon Boy are stowed away in their winter quarters, and the lovers of horseflesh find consolation'in holding the reins over those fivers which aro to be lound at Jew L3vvi3' Opera Livery Stable. Lewis has a fine stock of horses, both for the saddle and for driving. He lets them at a price which brings the enjoyment of a ride or drive within tbo £cach of all.

What could be more delicious for your Sunday dinner tli:m a nice venison roait? Nothing, to be sure. The next.question, where aro you to got it? is easily answered. You will find it at F. J. Kupp's meat market, Main street, between Sixth and Seventh. Mr. Rupp has arrangements by which he is enabled to keep on hand at all times a supply of this most delicious pabulum. Ho has, besides, everything which is to be found in any meat market in the city. Give him acall.

You who have no homes, no family tabb? to gather around when the time for that most enjoyable of all repasts, the Sunday dinner, comes, will do well to call at the St. Charles Hotol to-mor-row and take dinner with Dr. Steven son. The doctor sets a dinner before hi patrons on Sunday which is "too good to talk about." Oysters, turkey, venison, and aL those exquisite dishes. The list ot boarders at the St, Charles is steadily increasing as the lame of the establish men becomes more and more extended.

The livery and feed stables of Burgan fc Milligan, on Third street, botween Ohio and Walnut, is a popular place a.-nony the admirers of horseflesh. Tho noises which are kept at this establishment are unsurpassed by any in tho city. The stock of carriages, buggies, harness, robes, etc.,is kept up to the highest standard. If you wish to drive through the city and suburbs or into the country, Messrs. Bargan & Milligan will fit you out in style at a trifling cost.

Of course your Sunday dinner cannot be complete without oysters. And oysters are of no account unless they re good oysters. Therefore be careful where you buj'. It is. a well known fact that Alexander & Sibley furnish to the public the very best oysters in tho market. If yeu are not already aware of this fact through expeaience.just try them once and will be convinced.

Grant is undoubtedly pulling wires for a third term in the White House. Some few are anxious to see him succeed, but a vast majority prefer to see him retire to private life. However that may be, every body is anxious that the Marble Palace Jewelry Store shall endure forever. This establishment is an ornament to our city, and the enormous patronage which it enjoys shows plainly that the efforts of Mr. Trask to please the public,are duly appreciated. There is not a more complete and elegant stock of jewelry and silverware to be found in the State than that displayed by^Mr. Trask at the Marble Palace. "ir^-

"Bring music, stir the brooding air, With an etherial breath. Bring sounds, my struggling soul to bear,

CJp from the couch of death./' Thus sang Mrs. Hemans, and when she gave utterance to tnese words she revealed a sentiment which is present to a greater or less degree in all mankind. Everyone loves music. There are iincflbents of gloom and sadness which can only be dissipated by the cheerful joyous strains of melody from som'e musical instrument in the hands ofa'skilful performer. Therefore we say to all, go to the palace of music and select some musical instrument, take it home with you, and if you have not already learned, leara atonce.how to play it. Mr. Kissner has the most complete stock of musical instruments in the city. He sells both the Knabe and Steck pianos. Thes9 instruments have a world wide fa me. No instrument manufactured is superior to either of these in tone or finish.

Messrs. Buntjn & Armstrong are

!.5

now receiving a splendid new stock of goods, which will be opened to the pnblic next week. The new stock embraces a fine assortment of "druggists sundries," the techaical term for those elegant articles which you may see displayed in show-cases of this model establishment. The cigars sold by this firm are becoming quite famous. They are very careful in the selection of their goods, and sell notuiug which is not first-class in its way.

The whisky ring is busted, gone up, as the latewicked Mail would have said. Well, that's all right. Let it bust. Who cares? The pataous of Messrs Wright fe Kaufman certainly do not care, So lonS as thev anjoy the privileges and benefits arising from their patronage of this establishment, the whisky ring does not trouble tham Messrs. Wright and Kaufman serve their customers with the choicest of goods. Nothing of inferior quality is ever allowed to go out of their store.

Those who were not able to attend tha meeting ot the Horticultural society, on Thursday last, can consult R. W. liippetoe, who can, undoubtedly, furnish them with any information on the subject of the products of horticul

ture which qhey may desire. Rippe toe i3 posted on all such subjects besides, he has specimens of all fruits and vegetables produced in this region or in any other region which is acces siblo. The White Front grocery always presents a busy scene. It i» always thronged with customers. Tho reason of this is apparent to all who have dealt with Rippetoe. Hi3 stock embraces everything wnich is used in the culinary department of the household, and everything he sells is of the best. Canned fruits, vegetables, porduce, frnit, fancy and staple groceries at'the very lowest prices:

THE EXPLORER.

HE TAKES A FURLOUGH AND VISITS 1HE IiUiiAL DISTRICTS.

Agreeable Disappointment in His Acquaintance With Grangers.

The GAZETTE xplorer intended be

fore this timo

to havo brought block

coal into the Saturday GAZSTTE, but was entirely overwhelmed by the festivities of Thanksgiving, and has been "off" since that time. Instead of tak ing his lamp and continuing his un-der-ground researches, he armed him^self with his "trusty" breech-loader and started to visit some back-woods relatives, purposing to make a raid on the squirrels whilo away. lie has now returned, and wishes to give vent to a sudden change of opinions he has experienced in regard to agricultural people.

He know all about Harrison township and its prairie inhabitants, but this time he was going beyond, away out in the wilds of Hoosierdom, where thei*o is no citj* within forty miles, and no town that is very large. He had an idea that these country folks were a very rough sort of people aiid lived in a very rough sort of way. He supposed that they all lived in dilapidated, cheerless and squalid houses, ate "sow belly and corn pone" the year round, slept on platforms of boards braced up against the walls,drank from springs formed by convulsions of nature, and when not on the way to town with loads of loosely-stacked wood were employed sitting on the fences whistling.

He came back with his eyes opened, after a visit that taught him something new and set him thinking. In the first place, he did not before know the delights of the fireside. Town residents mope over stoves and shiver as they rattle the grate. In the country the big fireplace gives out not only heat» but a great, generous, blazing light, cheery and sooiable in itself, and thawing out all the talk and ehatter there is in the care-free family about it. They are not afraid of ventilation, for the fire both ventilates and heats.

Again, this stranger in a strange land found that its people had other things to talk about than crops and weather, and the changes of the mo on. Around the glow of those ruddy firesides are discussed questions of social and national interest, friendly argument is heard, and knowledge is exchanged. uSTot only in the mental, but in the physical mede of life, our explorer was surprised. He half expected to freeze when night should come, supposing the grangers usually "rough it" on thin straw and hard husks. But he found himself in a great feather bed between multiplyed layers of the finest home-made white blankets and cover

As to the table, he came near stuffing himself past all doctoring with the big white potatoes, the splendid big biscuits, the fresh game, choice meat and old-fashioned pumpkin pies, and drank what must have been several tub-fuls of fresh buttermilk.

Ho had always supposed farmers were an ovsr-worked class. Yet, while he had beeu accustomed to conaider himself lucky to pass a day with only ten or twelve hours wors, he

found those free and independent grangers at home by five o'clock, milking and ".'eeding," thereafter off duty till next morning.

The panic and its results have done a great deal to bring all these facts more into the notice of the anxious parents of the city, battling so hard for bread. They need not go to Texas, or Florida or California. One place is as good as another, butjust now the country has1' many advantages over the city.

No Whfskey.

The GAZETTE of a recent date had a' complaint made by a lady against a street car driver averring that he hadrh. stopped at the bend on the corner ofEight, and Main, and that be went into the saloon there that he came out on the sidewalk afterward and seeing the mules standing quietly, went back in again. The lady became disgusted and getting out walked. Mr. Haley wish-" es us to make this correction: The boy is anew one on the force. The boys are instructed to get their chauge eith-.-er at the Union Depot or at th9 Terre House. It seems that he had forgotten this. On tho trip up from the depot just previous to the ono described be had been unable to make change for a gentleman who got off at the corner of Eighth and Main. When he returned this gentleman f.eckoned to him to come in which he did. Not beiDg able to make change at once even then, he came out hastily to see if his mules were all right and again returned. Ho overtook the lady at

In a hundred other particulars the. explorer made unlooked for and important discoveries, He is sure tbat his wrong notions ax-e shared by too many city residents. Tho Indiana farmer is not what he was thirty years ago. The newspaper and the school master havo been abroad iu the land,changing and civilizing in a wonderful manner. The farmers wife is not now a scowling, scolding, irritable and over-worked woman, bnt matronly and kind while his sturdy children not only do not show tho sallow skins, scrofwlous slim necks, and unnaturally precocious developments, but are doing very well mentally also.
