BE CAREFUL.-It is needful only 10
notice the sudden and wonderful change
of weather, from cold and chilly nights
and mornings, to warm days and even
ings, to warn people to stick to their
thick clothing for while, however in
convenient and oppressive it may be. A
change from winter to summer raiment,
at this time, might produce bronchitis,
or rather throat disease, or lay the foun-
dation of a lung affection, or incite and
encourage an attack of rheumatism. 1t
any of these complaints are developed
at this season of the year, tits an even
chance, in most cases, they will become
fxtures. Do not be in haste to sport
thin garments, summer is not here yet.
There is plenty of time to come for cool,
if not cold and stormy weather. May
is not always one of the most delightful
months in the year. Notwithstanding
poets and sentimental school girls have
sung of its beauties and delights from
time immemorisl.

pose is to raise fund to support her

trial for her husband. She is repre-
sented as having q splendid stage pres
ence and as being q very fine reader.
Her reception at Chicago and other
points was more like an ovation than a

meet with al enthusiastic reception
here.

A SPLENDID EsTABLIsHMENT.-The
spring fashions have burst forth in their
full glory, and our streets are radiant
with the beauty and elegance of dress
To supply the demand now being made
by the ladies for the qualification Of
their critical tastes, the fashion empori.
ums of the city are vieing with each
other in their liberal displays Of spring
and summer goods for the wear of the
loveliest and best of creation. High
up among the popular establishments OF
this sort, ranks the firm of Brues &
Sanders, now startling competition in
the trade, and compelling public admi'
ration by their energy, taste and exten.
sive business, Dropping in upon them
yesterday evening at the close Of
heavy days business, we were
gratified by look through one
Of the finest, largest and most ele.
CANT stocks of Dry Goods, of all
sorts, ever brought to this city Emu.
meration would be impossible in our
limited space, and description would
fail to do Justice to the high merits Of
the establishment. We can only call at.
tention ts some of the special lines OF
goods which caught our eye, leaving
our readers to examine the remainder
for themselves and to confess that the
half had not been told them.
The stock of Dress Silks is extensive
and choice. For richness and beauty
many Of the styles have never been
surpassed in this market, as the heavy
demand for them attests. Grenadines,
figured and striped, are in abundance
and of all styles and prices. The i'm.
nense variety of these popular goods
constantly kept by Brues & Sanders is
the best assurance that they are pre-
pared to please all tastes. Their white
and black Lama Lace Points have at
tracted general attention and de-
lighted all purchasers. In the
line of Shawls, Grenadines, Bsreges
and all kinds to suit the season and the
taste, Bruss & Sanders challenge comPe-
tition whether as to quality, style or
price. In addition to these there is An
immense and well selected stock of Dry
Goods of every conceivable kind, which
it would be impossible to particularize.
We cannot omit, however, the statement
that their stock in Domsstics 10 unusu-
ally large, was laid in at q very low
market, and, therefore, enables them to
offer remarkable inducements How
can We forget that essential requisite 10

lite Grecian Bend parasOl, the latest
thing out, and the brightest beauty ever

larging upon the elegsDcies Of this es-

style of trade, We would speak at length
of the energy of the proPrietOrs aud of
the politeness and unceasiHg attention
of the gentlemsnly clerks. Bat time

beauties to the consideration OF the
public whose good taste cannot fail to
coincide with our own.
