n The Oty COMMERCIAL Office and bust
ness are advertised for sale on the 18th
Of November. Miss Hoover has estsb-
lished a popular and handsome business
but too close attention to business has
told so much upon her health, that it be-
comes necessary for her to quit the Office
at once! We hope some energetic man
may see the advantage presented and
take this business. There is no better
business in our city, and the prospects
for its continued success are most fiatter-
ing. The time has come when our peo-
pie see the necessity for daily, and
Miss Hcover's Office and power press ,ffer
the facilities for its immediate publication.
The Commercial has maintained a
strictly Democratic character, and its
prospects for becoming the party organ
of the county are good. The Democracy,
we learn, will make an effort to retain
the paper in line but as Miss Hoover
proposes selling to the highest bidder,
the chances are equal to the other party;
and no matter who takes it there is money
in it.

TREASURER KELLY, assisted by his
brother, James Kelly, was collecting
taxes here yesterday. They are quar-
tered at the Globe House, where parties
wanting to pay their taxes can find them
at all hours.
WE had the pleasure of attending the
musical jubilee at the NJ. Z. Church last
night, and we believe that we but give
expression to the feelings of all who
were present. when we say that we were
highly entertained. The exercises were
conducted in the most genteel manner,
and the music without a single exception
was sweet and well performed. During
the evening Rev. Rodgers made short but
stirridg and appropriate address to the
Sunday school children and parents,
which was very interesting, and atten-
! tivety listened to, as did also Rev. Wal
lace, pastor of the L. p. Church, of this
city. The audience was highly enter
tanned by Miss Mellott, of Columbus,
Ohio, who sang some beautiful songs. To
say that her singing was very fine, would
but feebly describe the rapturous strains
of melody that fell from her lips.
The hand of God, in affiictian, has been
upon Miss Mellott from childhood; she
is blind. but God has blessed her With the
heavenly gift of music and u beautiful
voice which stirs the very hearts depths
of all who hear her. The performance
was good all through and Mr.. Rowles
and Mr.. Westlake dctcrve great credit
for the care and labor expended in training
the Sunday school children in their
charge. We would fain speak Of the
merits of all as they deserve, but have
neither time nor space to do so. But we
NAV lust add that while the whole Of the
evenings performance was dcservedly
good so was the audience, and we rejoice
in the success of our friends, and most
earnestly hope they will repay our APP
probation by another similar entertain
ment soon.
THERE was nothing of special interest
transpired in our city yesterday.
