Miss Lou Moss, of Center Point, is In the city, visiting a sister on North Sixth street.

Dr. J. C. Painter, of Charleston, was .n town last Saturday. Mr. L. M. Fleming, of the Ft. Wayne Sentinel, is in the city: leaves to-mor-row.

Wilson Bros. fc Hunley have something to say to-day of unusual interest. They are inuch averse to bragadocia, as may be seen from the plainspoken language of their advertisements.

Mr. Will Tuell, arrived home last Saturday evening, from his European tour.

Chauncey Twadell, Captain of the Crumbs of Comfort, and his crew propose building, in the spring, a neat little steamer to cost about $1,000, for hunting and fishing excursions.

W. W. Davis & Co. have in their pens about 600 hogs. They will sluaghtar this afternoon again. They shipped four car loads of cut meats east today.

The statement in the Express of yesterday that Mr. Anderson would play only the First Grave Digger in the forthcoming representation of Hamlet, is a mistake, Mr. A. will double the the parts of Polonius and First Grave Digger.

Jim Hughes is the leading authority in Terre Haute now, on the pleasures and profits of attaching goods iu a house where small pox reignetb. Dr Peyton sent him Saturday on such a mission. J:'.

Mr. Gilbert, Presideut of the Horticultural Society, received this morning two barrels of specimen apples from Toledo, Ohio, the headquarters of the Ohio State Horticultural Society. Ho also received another barrel from Jackson, Michigan. These apples will be displayed at the meeting of the State Association, to-morrow.

Fairbanks Distillery.

The establishment oi'C. Fairbanks is running day and night,and has been so doing for considerable time past. They employ a large number of hands, and grind 1,800 bushels of corn per day, which Is three bushels more than its capacity as measured by the Government. Since the present firm have had charge of this distillery a number of improvements have been made, among which we notice a patent arrangement for steaming barrels. They receive a great many orders for what is called i."wbit9 whiskey." When high in6s are placed in barrels, and remain a short time, the sap from the wood colors it. This steaming takes'the sap all out of the wood, and the whiskey will remain colorless after remaining in the barrels. It is then called "white whisky." About 1,200 head of cattle are being wintered there» mostoi which belong to Quinlan, Montgomery & Co., of Kansas City Mo. Their corn sheller. we are informed will shell about ten thousand bushels of corn per day. As yet this firm has maintained that "Honesty is the best Policy," and no ^'crooked Whiskey" has been manufactured by them.

Regular Physicians.

In a report of charges against county physician Caldwell, which appeared in the Journal a few days since, there appjared a statement to the effeet that Dr. Caldwell had fpresented a written instrument to the commissioners, gignedjby a number of "regular" physicians, setting forth the fact that Dr. Bannett was a "regular" physician, which the Journal interprets to mean, that Dr. Bennett had never received a diploma from a medical college. Dr. Bannett is a regularly graduated physician of the ecleotic sohool. The GAZETTEER has seen his diplomas and knows whereof he sp9eks. In some looalities, alopathic physicians take Sit upon themselves to declare that they are the only "regular" practicioners andkthat physicians of other schools are a fraud. This seems to be the state of affairs in Terre Haute.

Death of Officer Staadoferd. William Standeford, a well known member of the police lorce of this cityj died very suddenly yesterday, at his residence in the' southern part of the city. Ho had been at the Mayor's office in the morning, and at the time, was feeling unusually well. About noon, as he was entering his house, he fell to the ground in a fainting fit, and was carried to his bed, where he died, at 3 o'clock yesterday afternoon.

Mr. Standeford was a soldier in the Mexican war, and there received injuries which were the primary canse of his death. .(«

AT a meeting, last Saturday, of the committee of five appointed by the Library Association, to call en all of the members of the association and urge them to be present this evening* the eighty-three members were distrib. uted among them. They each agreed to see his sixteen or seventeen mem bers to-day in person if possible.- Thi9 is a voluntarily one and one too, which necessarily entails considerable labor. Let every one knowing himself or herself to be a member, make it a point to call around for a half an hour this even ing when the whole business can a1 once be attended. Jj,

THERE is a sum of about $700 a year paid out by the city for office rent for Clerk, Treasurer, engineer, &c. All this could be saved by using the upper floor of the market house for that purpose instead of retaining it as a hall, which will be half the time idle, and the other half free. Beside it is an in terferenoe with private interacts for the city to maintain such a hall. No individdal reader of the GAZBTTS would enjoy it if he was the owner of suchahall. The cas» is not helped by the fact of the hall as it now is being a dead weight on the city.

ELSEWHERE there is a communication from a leading member of the O. XT. A. M. in reply to an article in the Express, of last Thursday. It may give a more thorough knowledge of the true interests of the organization than as at present entertained by onr readers, and is, hi any event well a

ONE of the biggest events of this week—saving of course Christmas, is the Horticultural meetings which will be held both morning, afternoon and evening, at the -Ninth street market house, for three days, commencing tcmorrow..

HOLIDAY PRESENTS.

CHEAP-SUBSTANTIAL —TJSEFUL.

What Can

be

First may be mentioned Dress Qoods—and what more acceptable than a handsome dress pattern. For this week they intend to make a specialty of dress goods and some rare bargins may be had. They show a fine line of Black Silks, Colored Silks, Black Mohair or Brilliantine, Brown, Black or blue Cashmere and other nice fabrics.

There are Velvet Cloaks and Furs for ladies, misses and children Paisly and Broche Shawls.

In smaller articles you can get a box of Hosiery for lady or gentleman, or a box of Handkerchiefs plain and hemstitched, embroidered and initial or a set of embroidered Collars and Cuffs a pair of Kid Gloves for ladies or gentlemen or a beautiful Silk Tie, or handsome white or colored Tidies.*

In the line of staples they have white and red Wool Blankets, Table Linens, Towels, etc. A nice set of Napkins would be nice.

But we will not enumerate. Our object is mainly to draw attention to the fact that many useful and attractive Holiday presents can be found at Wilson Brothers & Hunley's, corner of Fifth and Main streets. The stock is full and complete, bought for cash and sold for cash and that's why such bargains can there be Lad.

Dry Good Store.

There are people, whe, in selecting Holiday Presents, seldom give a thought to a dry goods house, but search for articles costly and useless, attractive, tut of little Intrinsic value, When it is just as easy to get a useful article that will be just as acceptable, we believe that we are doing the readers of The GAZETTE a favor in drawing attention to the many articles to be found at Wilson Brothers & Hunley's, who now display an attractive line of goods specially adapted to the Holiday trade.
