To the Public.

We wish to call the attention of the Public
to the fact that we are manufacturing bugges
which are second to none in market, and SELL
ing them as cheap as frst-cIass work can
possibly be sold We are aware that the
country is being flooded with cheap shoddy
work, and sold With no guarantee or with one
that is worthless. No man can afford TO buy
poor buggy, as it is an article that costs con-
siderable money. The difference in the cost
between good and poor buggy is of minor
importance when you connt what il costs TO
keep poor buggy in repair. After buggy is
painted no man can tell what it is made of ;
it covers nearly sl of the imperiections, and
when this cheap shoddy work begins to fail
which is generally the first year; for they can
be made of nothing but the cheapest of ma
terial-they are soon gone, and if parties have
no reliable guarantee they are not safe in buy
ing. We manufacture carriages and buggles
of every style and description. Our work is
all made of secoLd growth hickory, and ironed
with Norway iron, and painted in the best pos>
sible manner, and all we ask is for parties
wishing.to purchase to come and examine our
finished work, work in course of construction,
our timber and stock of every description,
and if they do not find everything just as we
represent it, We will pay them for their trouble
and expenses. H0UGH & co.

THEATRICAL. - The people of
Bloomington were on Monday even
ing favored with the most interestin g
exhibition in the the theatrical line
that it has been their good fortune
to witness. The drama, "Ticket-of-
leave Man" was admirably rendered
by the dramatic club of that place
under the leadership of Mr.. Stock
well. The lltter's performance In the
character of Briefly" would have
done credit to many older actors.
Miss Lily Woodhoase appeared per-
fectly at home IN her part, and Miss
Maker as Mrs Willoughby frequent
ly brought down the house; while
Messrs. Clarke and Maker in their
several characters would not have
been taken rs ameteurs. The usual
gentlemanlo ease of manner and col.
Ioquial style of the village school
master added to the interest of the
entertainment. Notwithstanding the
almost impossible condition of the
roads. the ball was well filled, and
all departed satisfied that they had
received their moneys worth and
with hopes of future entertainments
of the like.
