New Fancy Store.

We have already made allusion to Mr.
Milch's new Fancy or Variety store, which
greatly assists in supplying want of the city,
and is therefore the more worthy of mention.
Mr.. M. has now received his goods, opened
them, and is ready to receive the calls ofcuri-
osity or custom. His show cases and win
dow are indeed a perfect curiosity shop, ex-
hibitihg as they do the greatest variety of ex-
quisitely beautiful fancy articles of use and or
nament, and hundreds of things that were
never before to be purchased in this city. 1t
is a kind Of depot for things fanciful as well as
Of practical use, which can be found at no
other place, as well of articles more common.
The ladies' will there find thousand little
novelties, many of which they have doubtless
long desired but could not procure, with things
suitable for children from the little babe to
the overgrown boy! The gentlemen, too,
may find there everything in their line from
Bears grease and gold pens to pocket combs
and cigar cases. Mr.. M. has a superior quail
ty of everything appertaining to the toilette.
But there is no use trying to tell what he has
got. Call at his store, opposite the Post Office,
and see for yourselves. Hedon't charge any
thing for looking.

MAN DRowNED.-Y Yesterday morning about
ii o'clock a young man, a German, employed
in ORiley's wharf boat store room the last few
days, was on the outside guard, either stand
ing on or playing with chair. He suddenly
fell overheard. He could not swim and every
effort was made to save him, but in vain. He
passed under a coal boat, and was quickly
drowned. His name was Gerhard Herman
Bauer, and we believe had not long been in
the city.
