engaged on it this week, and it will be COM

two rooms coni gtably fitted up, one for

be a great deal better room to hold the courts

To the People.

The land has begun TO swarm again with
retail drummers A retail shirt drummer
was i'm town last week selling shirts at
81 so each by the-half dozen. We sell as
good shirt for SI.O0, for one or more.
This shirt is made of Wamsutta DOmcs-
tic, 22O0 linen, and 3-ply all-linen bosom,
and warranted to fit. The reason you pay
these prices to drummers is that they are
SO much cheaper than you bought them of
your home merchant time since. Three
years ago this same shirt was sold by us
at 50 80 laundricd, and we make the same
profit on them now as we did then You
do not realize the shrinkage i'm values
There has been the same depreciation in
nearly all kinds of goods, especially IN
rcady-made clothing. A friend was brag-
ging a few days since that he had bought
Il great bargain in a coat. 1t was 30 per
cent cheaper than the last he bought from
us. We showed him better one for the
same money. He did not think Of the
decline. We want you to recOllect that
from now henceforth and as long as wesell
goods we will always have the bottom
prices on all goods we keep We will sell
and buy exclusively for cash, and can and
will have bottom prices.

Darling
by X. A. o.

DO you think Of mo, darling, / wonder
As you go to aud fro among meuS
Is there ever lull In tho tumut,
When you foudly remember your friendS
Do you over, when quietly passing
Through tho hurrying crowds on the streot,
Catch u glimpse Of a form that reminds YOU
Of mine, mid the many you meet?
10 you sometimes on festive occasions,
When bright eyes are upturned to thine,
For moment forget those before you,
And in fancy SEQ mine, only mine2
Or, when many about you are talking,
ls there ever a oudenco or tone
In some voice, which in reaching thrills
through you,
Just because it resembles my own?
And, when the day's visions are faded,
And you, hushcd in your chamber ut night
Sink to dream of the one that is dearest,
Does my form still arise OH your sight2
'Tis useless to question you, darling,
For know, as tho waves of the sea
! Kiss forever the shores that surround it,
So your thoughts wander ever to me.
And though neither tho best nor tho dearest
Of the friends which your present may
know,
AS a part of your past am with you,
Forever, wherever you 20.

the gravy. Add the other ingredients,
except the potatoes, and let 1t cook very
slowly for twenty minutes. Rub the
potatoes boiled previously through a
sieve, to make them perfectly smooth.
This is the best way TO mash potatoes
for all purposes, Miss Dods thinks.
Add the milk to the potatoes, and stir
over the fire till the potatoes are dry.
Erecting the wall of potatoes around
the edge of the steak-plate is more a
matter Of deftness of fingers than knOwl-
edge; Miss ID. S way "must be seen 10 be

toes next, and then deposited the
Drowned steak in the fenced-in space.

Miss Dods will give her third lecture
at hali-past two this afternoon, and an
other at half past seven this evening, at

We hope, for the credit OF the city and
the appetites OF our citizens, that she
will have full house. The value, or at
least the estimate the ladies put upon
the value, of the lectures is shown by
the fact that a majority of those present
i'm the afternoon returned at night, and
we heard one lady say she postponed
her house cleaning, refrained from going
on the Mt. De Chantal excursion, and
even missed prayer meeting to hear
Miss Dods. Another said she would
not sell what she had learned from the
two lectures for any price.

Probably Fatal ARRAY.

FRANKFoRT, KY, May IA difficult
ty occurred here at l 80 o'clock between
Dr. w. III. Hall, a prominent druggist,
and J. VI. Stephens, a butcher, in which
Hall was stabbed in four places danger
ously, and Stephens received pistol
shot through the clothing. The origin
of the difficulty is not known. Hall
met Stephens on the street, drew pis-
tol and fired, when Stephens wrenched
the weapon out Of his hand and stabbed
him four times with a knife. stephens
could have killed Hall with his own
pistol, but after disarming him, stepped
back several PAGES and waited until he
saw Sheriff Williams coming down
street. when he called to him to come
and arrest him and gave himself up.
Hall was taken to the Office OF DIR.
Duval, and now lies there in a critical
condition.

A Two Hundred Thousand Dol

LEXINGTON, KY, May IA destruc-

in Silas Wolverton's omnibus and liv-
cry stable on Main street. The flames
spread rapidly, and within five minutes
Wolverton's and the adjoining stable OF
Tracy Il Wilson were in sheet OF
flame, spreading rapidly until the Phe-
nix Hotel on one side and the residence
of Gen. Leslie Combs on the other were in
flames. The destruction of these build
ings was completed, and it was with the
utmost difficulty that the fire depart
ment was able to keep the fire within
limits, and at this hour, II p. NJ, the fire
is still raging, but undr control. Loss
500 600; insurance $4,000.
The fire is entirely under control.
The Phpnix Hotel, Teach & Wilson's
livery stable, the largest in the city,
Silas Wolvcrton's stable, and General
Leslie Combs residence, are entirely
destroyed. Mr.. SimOnds, proprietor OF
the Phoenix Hotel, has moved TO the ST.

DEAD BODY FOUND.
SmSpiciOnS of Foul Play.

CTLUMBUs, O., May l4-About three
weeks ago the body of an unknown
man was fonnd in the river near Hill
lard Station. The body was considera-
bly, bruised. His suspenders were tied
around his neck and his pockets were
filed with heavy stones. The cOrOner's
jury returned a verdict OF suicide. The
parties resident have reason to believe
that the dead man is Isaac Nef, of OWL
la, Ind, a justice OF the peace, who,
after collecting 5000 here, started for
Hilliard, in a buggy, with another man,
since which time Netr has been missing,
and It is feared he was murdered and
thrown into the river. Owing to the
absence OF the coroner, the body cannot
be disinterred to prove tie truth or fall
sity Oi the suspicious.

THE EXODUS.
Some Reports Denied.

ST. LOUIS, May l4.-The officers OF the
Southern steamboat companies having
their headquarters here, and the officers
of the steamers plying between here
and New Orleans, deny having refused
transportation to the colorcd refugees,
whenever the latter have had
money to pay their passage. They also
deny that there has been any generally
expressed disposition on the part of
merchants and planters to withdraw
their patronage from the boats which
carry immigrants. This has
been done in a few instances,
but the desire to prevent the negroes
from leaving the South is changing, and
now the planters do not seem to care
whether they leave ornOt. the officers
of the latest arrived boats say they were
not hailed on the way up by the ne
groes, and they do not believe that there
are such numbers OF refugees on the
river banks as have been stated. They
further state that the excitement is fast
dying out, and will cease altogether in a
short time
