derstandfng absolutely does nothing; on
the contrary, it encourages both complaint
and emphasis Of expression. May Is the
doctor In all such cases. He sooths the
temper and, giving comfort to the foot,
inspires the sufferer with the gentleness of
May. You see what a beneiactor May is.
He has fashionable and durable shoes and
boots, &c.
CHRISTIAN & WHITES when man gets
into this store he can but think that it is
sort OF public -benefaction. He beholds such
O store Of the best things OF such excellent
quality. It is stock that only could be
gotten together by prince OF caterers. See
the lists of goods presented by the house,
and know that what is printed is to be found
of the best quality. In liquors, in wines, in
fine Notwithstanding Old Virginia
ham-in preserves, canned fruit-in pickles
and condiments generally-in cheeses-in
smoked and salt fish-in all these things and
many others, Christian & Whites stocks are
of the very best. They are always good, and
better than ever now. We suspect that they
mean to out-Christian Christian and out
whiten White this year. What do they mean
by "Alkethrepta That knocks us. We
understand the rest OF the catalogue; but
men are always more concerned about one
thing not understood than they are about
ninety and nine that they do understand.
The way to crafty curiosity is to 60 and
see. But we know it can be nothing wrong.
Christian is too good man for that.
COHEN BROTHERS. 305 Broad street.-Dry
goods in superabundance, cloths, silks, drap
Tete, bombazines, delaiues, empress cloths,
cloaks, shawls, flannels, housewear, and un-
derwear for ladies, gentlemen, and children !;
laces and embroidery, etc.-in short, every
variety of things entering into the "make-
up" OF figure and grace. We should not
omit to name gloves. They are an import
ant article Of civilized society. When one
gets up to the degree Of gloves he may be
considered graduate. Then there are
ribbons, and fur and feather trimmings,
and those sacred articles OF necessity
braid, and corsets, and bustles. Cohen
Brothers are richly supplied with all these
things, and many more.
These gentlemen are ever eyincing an en-
terprising spirit, and have very recently,
owing to ther tremendous stock on hand,
made q division of it, and removed the
greater part to their new and elegant store,
formerly occupied by Breeder e. Fox, cor
ner OF Fourth and Broad streets. The
store has been fitted upin the most modern
and attractive style, and we wish them Sue
cess in their new establishment.
GEORGE A. uUNDLEY e. Co., 52S Broad
street.-An ample store for the accustomed
groceries and the liquors and condiments
needed at all seasons, especially at the pre-
sent. Their collection OF nuts, and fruits,
and fine things for "royal spread'' is ex-
cellent. We see that they have raisins, and
citron, and geiatines, and pickles, and
mince-meat, &c., DC. We should all be
happy at time like this to see such an
abundant supply not only Of good groce-
ries, but also Of the condiments that trim
off and toothsomeises the feast Of the most
respectable boards. Hundley & Co. have
done their part as caterers for the public.
BREEDES Il Fox, corner OF Broad and
Fifth streets-a house that has come down
from the better days OF the republic, and
brought its fame with it. What is better,
that fame is improved. 1t still spreads be-
fore its excellent customers the fashionable
stocks Of the day. What revolutions have
these worthy businessmen gone through in
their subsection to the tyranny OF fashion
No two years have left them peace and
order. Their shelves have been rifled and
reformed, and those inoffending fabrics
few months old have been ruthlessly
seized and sent to the hangman, while new
and pampered and petted textures have
taken their places. 1t would be curious to
know how many such changes have hap
pened in the business career OF MessrS.
Breeder d Fox. And through them all
they have marched right up to the very eX-
tremest point Of the prevailing fashion,
submitting to the ruling Judgment relating
to the exquisite draperies that envelope the
fair form OF the divine sey and adorn their

rate; 90 and know.
p. WuITLocK, 1445 Main street-Dealer
in Tobacco and Pipes, and Smokers Arti-
cles Generally.-Whitlock is manufacturer
of the popular cigars known as Model and
Peach brand Smoking is the "last re-
sort" OF the entertainment. Through this
agreeable relaxation men settle their
minds to serenity after the busy action OF
the dinncr-table, and dream themselves into
happiness and reace with all mankind. So
it may be said that smoking is Il virtue, as
ii makes men more innocent and ethereal in
thought and temper than they ordinarily
are. Whitlock offers the best implements
and fabrics for the smokers art.
w. P. W. TAYLOR, corner OF Fourth and
Broad streets.-An old and popular house,
with the reputation acquired in the best
days unimpared by vicissitudes and pub
lie calamity. Mr.. Taylor continues 10 sup
ply his customers with the best and most

watches, gold chains, jewelry, wedding
rings (oh, Felicity ,, gold spectacles, plated
ware, etc. Very inviting indeed; and Mr..
Jahnke especially desires that persons in
quiring for festival ornaments in the pre-
cious line should give him call.
Shoes, boots, and slippers OF all kinds, and
customers it takes two stores to supply
them. At each they will find assortments
suited to the day and the holiday. Our un-
derstanding concerning this branch OF busi-
ness is somewhat exhausted. The fact is,
the number OF shoemen is considerable,
and we are happy to say that they are so;
for we have reason to hope that we are
doing more in the manufacturing business
and rely less upon the Lynus and the
Adamses. Boschen is doing his part.
D. COLUMBUS, 321 Broad street.-De-
scendent OF c. Columbus, the discoverer-
the immortal G.. Our D. is rs busy as bee
in bucket with his Christmas preparations.
