Ehrichs' Fashion Quarterly

CIN lIIlo I CSiitSii S~Nc' ASi'a
Is like the swallows its coming
proves that Spring is here in earnest,
and that the dreadful winter Of S0-9l
has at length receded iRto the past, to
furnish forth fruitful themesfor fire
side discussion on many future win
ter night.
The Fashion Quarterly, as usual, is
full of information for the fair. 1t tells
them what to buy and how to get it
what styles have gone out of fashion,
and what are coming into vogue and
its copious descriptions and price lists
will enable its readers to practice a wise
economy, by foreseeing, and providing
for, every item Of the seasons neces-
sites.
A strictly novel feature of the pre-
sent number is the system of Ladies
unmade dresses which is intend
ed to enable lady to secure the most
fashionable goods and patterns, with
out beng subjected to the charges of d
New Ycrk dressmaker. Under this
system, the Ehricbs furnish the mate
rials and patterns Of the various Co.'S
tunes illustrated in their journal, for
fixed price sending not only the dress
goods, but t.Ie lining, trimming, but
tons, sewing silk, and, in short, every
thing but the needle and thread. The
economy of this system is evident, anc
it is safe TO predict for it an immense
success.

The Prosperity Election.


The citizens of Prosperity met in
mass meeting Friday night to nominate
a ticket for the ensuing year. There
were two tickets before the meeting
one composed Of men in favor of IL
cense, and one against-in other words
"wet" ticket and "dry" ticket. The
following "dry" ticket was nominated :
For Intendant, S. l.. Fellers; for War
dens, DR.. R. l.. Luther, W. A. Moseley,
DR.. J. B. Simpson and A. P. Dominick.
Another meeting was held Saturday
night, at which the following ticket was
nominated: Intendant, S. L. Fellers
Wardens, DR.. ". T. McFall, ?. E. Wise,
Allen NJ. Lester and Lee Schumpert.
The Friday night ticket was the "dry"
ticket; the other the "wet"--though
Mai. Wise u and Mr.. Lester are ''dry''
men-they were not consulted about
their nomination.
The election came off Monday, 18th,
and excited considerable interest. There
were 80 votes polled; 40 for the ''dry''
ticket, and 81 for the ''wet." There
were three barrooms in Prosperity; the
election Monday closed them up imme-
diately. The barkeepers take their de-
feat quite philosophically.

The Municipal Election

me Municipal EleCIion
Is going on as we 60 10 press. I'm
fortunately some bad feeling has sprung
up on account Of the manner Of making
nominations. The time and place fixed
by the Council did not suit a consider
able number of the citizens. It has
been the custom for many years past to
hold the mass meeting in the Court
House in the G.ytime for nominating a
ticket. This roar the meeting was fix
ed for the nigni time and in the Audi
tors Office, room entirely too small
for such a purpose. The first appoint
ment was for Thursday night; but on
account of a petition by many of the
citizens the time was changed: no time
was suggested by the petition, and the
Council fixed the meeting for Wednes-
day night, to which night there were
precisely the same objections as to
Thursday night. The meeting was held
motion to adjourn till Thursday after
noon tothe Court House was voted down
nominations were made. A good deal
was said at the Wednesday night meet
ing about wet and dry, but that ques-
ton has not been in issue this time at
all. Those who favor dry" Council
feel that it isn't worth while to make
the fight: the result desired is almost
sure to be brought about at the next
session of the Legislature by the pass
age of a prohibition law, and they are
therefore content to wait.
Another meeting Of citizens was
held Saturday afternoon in the Court
House. This meeting also made nom
ination.
The minutes of the proceedings oi
both meetings can be fouud in this is

Corn, Corn for the People.

No less than eight car loads have
lately been received By Messrs. j. n.
Martin & Co., and the mind is lost in
wonder what they intend doing with
such vast quantity, particularly as it
comes in bags and not barrels. If it
was in diluted form we would cease
to surprised. A visit to their estao-
lisbment, however, dispels the wonder
for it is hauled off into the country by
the wagon load, to be used in the lesl'l-
mate old way: feed for stock, for plant
ing and for corn pones. This is the
largest quantity ever received here at
time, and the enterprise OF these
snen is worthy Of note.

pendent; he did his own thinking, and
formed his own conclusions. He was
man of large information. He leaves a
