An editor should be very careful in no.
ting The enterprise and success of persons
in business, to guard against comparisons
which would seem to be invidious. We
desire to neither feel nor evince anything
of this kind, yet we admit that il is per.
feclly natural to feel deeper interest in
the prosperity Of those who are our most
liberal patrons, than those who from eth.
er sheer pecuniary liuleness, OR political
| prejudice, never deign to request the
mention Of their name. We must be
permitted to say that the contrast between
the success Of these men in our city, and
those who advertise literally in the True
american, is most striking. We are
led to these reflections from noticing the
number Of persons who are constantly
flocking to the store Of Dougherty & Bro
on the corner of Sd and Market streets,
and stepping out well nigh loaded down
with goods Of the first water, saying by
their smiling countenances, F" We have
got bargain this time." But there are
other places we will say nothing about
We wish all our merchants great prospe-
rity.
~Mr. WHrTAcRE O'NEAL has leased
the house formerly occupied by Mr.. J. L.
Blackburn, on south Sd street, and known
as the "Eagle Hotel". 1t is thorough
ly reflted and relurnished, and it is the
expressed determination of the present
proprietor to make it at once first class
house. TO this end we understand it to
be the intention Of the proprietor to ex-
clnde all intoxicating drinks from the pre-
mises. This is praiseworthy resolution
and we hope for the peace Of the neigh
borhoOd, as well as for The honor and
success Of our old friend, that it will be
rigidly adhered to.
Knowing that Whitacre is well quail
fed to keep an excellent house We take
pleasure in recommending him TO the ira
Yelling public.
pn This is lively world. The slow
coaches of old days won't answer now.
There is no lukewarmness in life. A
man must either make stir and noise
in life, or hang his harp on the willow.

Sterling g. KelIs are acting upon this
maxim, They have removed their store
to the large brick block on the north side
Of Market street, few doors west of 4th.
They have a large and we'll selected

1t is not to be wondered at, that ladies

but to witness all classes by kind Of
general consent making this their
place to buy, can only be accounted for,
from the fact that Garrett's is the place to
get the full worth Of the money inves-
