but We certainly do not approve Of the course Of
spinning it out in such small parts from month
to month. It loses its interest, and does not add
a particle to the good character of the maya

an article on Reconstruction, and another upon
Virginia. To those desiring heightened, first

STITCHES. = Sewing Machines make
only two kinds Of stitches that az al desira-
be One Is the celebrated Grover & Baker
stitch noted for its superior elasticity and dura-
bility in wearing and washing. The other is the
shuttle, or lock stitch. The Grover & Baker
machine takes both of these stitshes, 50 tha,
purchasers, after trying and comparing the two,
can take their choice. These machines can be
seen at any time at Ingersolrs in operation manu-
featuring cloaks, and persons after seeing them
work can easily decide that they a-e the best
sewing machine in existence.
P. S.-Perhaps you want one of those nice
cloaks spoken of above; if so call at IngersolPa
at once, and supply yourself or have one made

BUSINESS CHANGE-The firm of Mont
gomery & Millar, who have been doing an ex-
teusve trade in the grocery line in this city for
some months past, have dissolved partnership,
Mr. Montgomery retiring, having sold his inter
est in the establishment TO Mr. Nillar who vii
continue the business "a usual. These gentle
men, during their co.partnesship, have bulk up
good trade, and the reputation Of their estab
ment for fair dealing, and Offering to the pub
lie superior goods In their line, has become wide
" known Under the management Of Mr.. Nil
lar, individually, the former reputation of this
house will be fully maintained. The firm of Mont
gomery Millar were liberal in advertising, and
prospered thereby AS will be seen by refer
ence to another column, Mr.. Millar intends not
to depart from this key to the success Of our
best and most prosperous business men. We
assure the public Mr. Millar does not make a
greater spread in this direction than his large
and well selected stock of goods will justify.
Everything in the line Of groceries eau be OBJ
tanned at this establishment, at wholesale or re-
tail, as cheap a. at Detroit, or any inland town
ia the State. A new feature has been added TO
the establishment, which is the prompt delivery
of goods to any part Of the city, free Of charge.
This is a great convenience, and one well calcu-
lated to draw custom. We bespeak for Mr..
Nlillar a good share Of public patronage Our
country dealers would do well to visit this es,ab-
lishment before making a trip to the east to
make their purchases. They can do full As well
as by going to Detroit

FINE ARrs-We are gratified to

FINE ARTs--We are gratifed to learn
that Prof A. Bradish, the eminent portrait
painter, viii pay this city a visit in a few days
for the purpose of painting portraits for some
Of our citizens. We are glad to notice this
evidence Of taste in our city, and hope that
many Of our parlors may be adorned with his
portraits Prof Bradish comes direct from
New York city, where he has just finished a
very fine portrait of Senator E. D. Morgan.
which is pronounced splendid work of art.
Last winter he painted large full-length por-
trait of Gov. Seymour, at Albany, for the State
Library. He also painted the portraits of
the veteran editors Thurlow Weed, Of the
Journal, and Edwin Croswell of the argus,
who have been lifelong co-laborers in the edi-
torial profession, both for the n. Y. State Liz
brary. Our Albany exchanges have had very
fattering notices Of these works and of the
admiration in which they we're held by the
friends of these distinguished gentlemen.
Prot Bradish probably has but few equals as
portrait painter in the country. His visit
here will afford a rare opportunity for our cit
liens to secure portraits by an eminent artist
