LUxURRs. Hoffman contin ues in
daily receipt of seasonable fruits, vege-
tables. &c. Here you find the mellow
apple, the delicious banana, the palatable
cranberry, the bleod-red beet, the mar
row-like carrot and parsnip. the hard
head cabbage, the odorous onion, the
mealy potato, and NIL other fruits and
garden sass," in season and out of sea-
son. Besides these are to be found bo-
lognas seasoned to taste, and other meats.
Then, again, we see the confectiona, and
other articles pleasant to the taste and
luxurious to the appetite. Tho polite
attention of Miss Josephine Smith and
Mr. V. A.. Hoffman. coupled with their
efforts to furnish the greatest quantity
and best qaality at the lowest price, is
winning large number of patrons. .,,
MILLINERY OPENING. Mrs. C. E. Reed
had her millinery opening yesterday,
which was largely attended by the
ladies. The bonnets and bows, caps
and curls, ribbons and roses, in ele-
gance and profusion, were admired,
criticised, priced and purchased. Our
| fashion reporter was absent from the
city, and we in the harness not being an
adept at millinery 'fixins and things"
must resign the task Of inspecting Mrs.
Reeds extensive and fashionable stock
to the Indies. Besides, we doubt our
ability to describe bonnet aside from
hat, or ribbon from lace, or hair from
iute We feel satisfied that many Bene-
diets will soon know what the spring
style of ladies head gear is, without
reading the papers. We know how it is
ourselves.
