When father came in, he

When Bob came in he asked
for the paper, and went up
stairs to change his boots,
grumbling out something
about hanging the boy to the
nearest lamppost.
The girls were in a bad hui

bic to get out that afternoon
on holiday shopping expedi-
ton; while mother was wor-
ried because the bread had not
! turned out we'll and the buck
wheat cakes showed a tenden-
cy to become sour.
Mother said something about
the bread-said she had been
over the baking nearly all day,
and it seemed as though it nov-

yeast is bad

man always complains of his
tools.
Mother flashed up instantly.
She was a good bread maker
and she knew it. She said:
THAT don't apply to me. We
generally have as good bread as
any one. Don't you think so
Robert?'
Bob, who looked as though
he was working out problem
in mental arithmetic, answered:
Il don't presume to criticise the
fare at my boarding house.
This was improving Cuttings
rapidly-Bob calling our house
his boarding house.
After supper, Bob went to
his room and smoked a cigar,
and afterward came down in a
more social humor. In accor-
dance with previous engage
ment, he and Lizzie sat down
to practice an instrumental du-
ct.
sat in the parlor reading,
and so long as the music ran
smoothly on, | paid no atten-
ton it; but suddenly there was
discord and then it ceased
'You made a mistake there
said Bob, pointing to the mu-
sic.
No, it was YOU said Liz
zie,' Eand there is where it
was, pointing at one of the
hieroglyphics with which coma
posers disigure paper.
I beg pardon, said Bob; but
| could not have made such a
mistake, as l am quite famil-
lar with the piece. | played it
with Miss PATTERSON the other
evening, and she made the same
mistake you did, only she saw
it when I pointed it out
ooh, yes! She could see that
white was black, if you pointed
it out. What has Miss Patter-
son to do with me?'
4 surely thought that you
and l had lived long enough in
the same house together, and
were sufficiently intimate--if
not friendly-to allow me to
differ with you sometimes, and
even to quote authority in sup
port of my own opinion, when
it was at variance with yours.
Whatever friendly relations
there were needn't continue
You've chosen to define your
position in the house as that of
a mere boarder, and as such
had no right to flout another
young lady in my face, and
claim that because she made a
mistake must have done so
too. You talk queerly about
this music anyhow. lfyou are
as familiar with this as you
pretend, why did you practice
it? | know you are not right
about that mistake, and don t
believe yon think you are your
self.

paid yesterday for the tobacco that
was sold, and we are assured that
fully 70 per cent. of this will be left in
the city, in the purchase of stocks by
dealers. Thus it will be seen what
an advantage it is to our city to build
up this market. All that Is nee
essary is to let the planters
know the superior facilities possessed
by US, and to show them that tobacco
sells better here than at Louisville,
besides the saving in freight, which
also adds largely to the profit made by
selling in this market. We advise
planters to give this market a fair
trial, and compare the prices obtained
with those of other markets for the
same grades Of tobacco. We invite
their serious attention to this matter,
feeling convinced that it will be to
their interest to ship to this point.
There will be another large sale on
Friday, and on Tuesdays and Fridays
regularly hereafter.

evening, at the parlors of the church,
By a supper. for the benefit of the

hundred and fifty dollars for the cur

assurance of an evening of pleasant
social enjoyment, an ample supper,
and an admittance fee of fifty cents.
it is believed that the attendance will
be such as to secure the amount de-
sired.

PERsoNAL.-We had the pleasure
on Monday of meeting in the city
Captain James Foster, Of the u. S
Navy. He was in command of the
river fleet during the war, and con-
tributed largely, by his promptness
and efficiency, to the capture of John
Morgan, by cutting off his retreat.
He has just got up from a sick bed,
and is hardly able to travel. He was
en- route to Mound City. He is a ma
tive HOosier, raised at Bloomington.
Judge L. Q. DeBruler and j. j.
Jones, of Rockport, and Capt. j ohm
Gilbert, of Golconda. were in the city
on Monday.
Hons. Robert Logan, Representa-
tive from Pike County; Leroy Cal
vert, Representative of Vanderburgh,
and T. J. Jaquess, Senator from Po-
sey County, were registered at the
Sherwood House last night.
We had the pleasure of call yes
terday from Rev. Alonzo Atkinson,
of Lagotee, agent of the American
Missionary Association for the State
Of Indiana. Mr.. Atkinson will de-
liver a lecture in the interest Of the
missionary enterprise, on next Sab
bath week, and we are sure it will
be an interesting discourse.

THE TOBACCO LIARKET.-Fhe sales
of tobacco, yesterday, were quite
large, and the prices realized were
good. Martin, Gardner & Co., sold
seventy-two hogsheads as follows:
One at Sl4 Is; three at $13 to S14;
four at $12 to $13; eight at 81 to S12;
ten at SO to $11; thirteen at So to
so; nine at S. to 50, and twenty -four
at 81 20 to Sc.
Weldon, Bros. & Co, sold sixteen
hogsheads at from SO 80 to $14 % for
common to good leaf.
The attendance of buyers was large
and the bidding spirited. A large
number of buyers from Henderson
were also present. There would have
been more tobacco offered, but forty
FIVE hogsheads had to be held over
until Friday, on account of there not
being room to break them. Parties
who were present with their tobacco
expressed themselves as highly
delighted with the sales. The larger
portion of the tobacco sold yesterday
was brought from the Cumberland
River and the Western District
although Green River was we'll rep
resented.
There is no good reason why Ev-
ansville should not be made a great
tobacco mart. Its geographical stu
alton is better than Louisville, Padu-
cab or GAINESVILLE. This is the great
point for Green, Wabash, Cumberland
and Tennessee Rivers. Those who
send their tobacco to Evansville to be
sold have the benefit of both the Ev-
ansville and Henderson markets, as
buyers from Henderson attend regu-
larly. When the Evansville, Hender-
son & Nashville Railroad is com
pleted, we may expect large receipts
of tobacco from all points in Ken
lucky adjacent to the railroad, be-
cause they can get it transported
cheaply. One day last week, Il hogs
heads of tobacco were shipped over the
railroad to Henderson, at cost oil
only So per hogshead, when it had
previously cost not less than IS or SIC
per hogshead to get it to the river
We will have railroad to GRANVILLE
at no far distant day, we hope, and
the amount of tobacco that will be
sent mere for sale will be very large
There are several advantages that
can be secured to planters by ship
ping here, one of which is, that if the
sales are rejected, Messrs. Martin,
Gardner & Co. only charge 81 pei
hogshead for hauling, while at Louis
Vile it costs 50 80 for the same ser
vice, making a difference of 81 90
which is a profit in itself, and is an
item worthy of note by those who
have tobacco to sell.
Our merchants are using all their
efforts to aid in building up a tobacco
market in this city, and are prepared
to buy, at good prices, all that may be
offered. We are pleased to note this.
as it is subject in which the public
at large are deeply interested. A large
number of those who bring tobacco
here to sell, are also merchants, and
when they sell their tobacco they
take the money and purchase goods of
our merchants. About $4,000 was

DIDN'T BLow.-We are informed
that Mr.. Brommelhaus agreed on
Monday to announce his election to
his friends on Monday night, by blow
ing the whistle CT his sawmill, and in
the evening had steam raised for that
express purpose. A neighbor said he
laid awake nearly all night expecting
every moment to hear the whistle
blow the joyful sound" but Brom-
melhaus changed his mind and did
not let it blow till 6 o'clock Tuesday

Ia It was amusing to witness the
antics of the Democracy, on Monday
night, at the Fifth Ward precinct.
when they found that Stumpf had
been elected, if it was by only one
vote. They threw up their hats, they
shouted, and they swore, and carried
on in the most frantic manner. When
things got quoted down a little, we
remarked to them that they had better
jubilate all they could over Sunni
and Doughty, as they only had two
Counclmen out of nine, and that the
margin for rejoicing was quite small
They are welcome to all the glory
they can extract out Of the success OF
carrying only two wards.
