With these two words we introduce
to the public the fact and reality,
that Dan Rice, the great and talented
Snowman, with his New Show, will
be here again on Monday, the l4th
inst, St. Valentines Day. When
here a few weeks his Show was
crowded and turned of everybody
highly pleased and we'll entertained,
but still many, unawares that it was
such a novelty and Interesting exhi
bition, did not attend, and cow will
have a chance to see it and get the
worth of their money. This is espe-
cially applicable TO country people,
who must net miss this OCCASION and
above all bring all the children along.
They must not be permitted to re-
main away from Dan Rice's sound
and common sense forse lectares,
when it is so easy to come in on
Monday next Our word for it every
BODY should see it and learn wisdom,
man wisdom over horse intellect, and
they will retire, like u.s., much wiser
Individuals. Be sure and come!

THE CATHOLIC FAIR,

The Fair under the guidance and
patronage of the Ladies of the Cath
ole Church, for the purpose of re-
pairing their Church, comes off on
the 23rd and Oath inst, and sheuld
receive due consideration at the hands
of our proverbially charitable com
lnunity. We will here make men
ton of a donation, which has been
given for its benefit, and one which
should be duly attended to by our
good community. The American
Encyclopedia in 16 volumes, bound
in calf, and q work ofrare merit and
costing at the publication office $96
is now at the establishment of Fer
guson and Schnack, and is to be raf-
fled for $50, the sum of $75 to be do
mated to the Fair. Five chances
have been reserved to pay expenses
and the rs other chances, at one dol
lar chance are now ready for all bid
ders. The proper Committee Of the
Ladies are requested to aid in the
matter and canvass for subscribers,
that most of the numbers may be ia
ken previous to the opening of the
Fair.

business stand, the upper Warehouse
in front of the upper Town Wharf,
corner Of Front and Beauregard
Streets, has been leased for term of
years by R. G. Maddox and R. 7.
Hynson, and they commence at once
the business always carried on in the
establishment. They will continue
it in all the branches which have
heretofore been assigned to it and
seek the continued favors of its old
and steady customers. They start
out with the will and determination
to please, accommodate and serve
well all who will entrust their bust
ness to them, and hope to receive a
fair share of the public's favors.
This notice was received too late for
the publication of their business card
in our present issue, but it will ap-
pear in our next. In the meantime
this introduction will serve as a first
notice of their intentions.

III is comforting adage that
Failure is only a finger-post indica-

often true if the failure is for a large
amount and the dividend Eve cents

to be SO entirely successful after one
failure that brown-stone fronts and
carriages came as naturally as cold
victuals to a poor man who pays his
debts.
