:, 10 THE LADIEs.-This is the sea-
son of the year for ladies' to wear
lightssuits. Waterproof Is and other
heavy garments are now relegated
to the wardrobe, to-. be brought out
when the storms of another season
make them comfortable to wear.
With each change of season the dry
goods men have to get different
stock to supply the demand. Women
like to know as early as possible
what is going to be worn, so that
they can make arrangements to he
reasonably within the rules of that
tickle thing, fashion. In dry goods,
as in everything else in the line of
trade, energetic, wide-awake dealers
always come to the surface, while
their slow competitors sink down to
the line of mediocrity. 1t is to live
establishment, whose managers are
active to the wants of their custom
ers, that ladies should go where they
are shopping. Likewise of such a
place it is profitable to read when
purchases are contemplated. There
fore we make no bones to cali the
attention of our lady readers to the
firm of A. Vaenberg g. Co., No. 80
South G street, Virginia, who have
just now on hand large stock of
the finest kind of goods in the line
OF ladies' and children's wear. They
have just received from the markets
of San Francisco the latest style, in
cloth and cut, of summer wear, com
prising linen suits, parasols, hats, etc.
The firm do the fair thing by their
customers, and have large trade.
Those going to Virginia to make
purchases in their line could not do
better than to call and examine their
stock.

NIGHT SCHooI.-We have been
solicited to call the attention of
teachers to the absence of a night
school in this place. Such a school
would receive good patronage. The
various branches Of an elementary
education should be taught, such as

keeping, etc. We have not consulted
Prof. James, but suggest that such OF
our citizens, as may desire to be-
come scholars call on Prof. James
snd see if he will not consent to open
such a school.
