will be most lamiliar to cur lady friends,
pronounce them beautiful, perfectly char

very latest styles, and has exhibited a taste
iu the selection of her goods which is tru

Oca Streets. Our town authorities
a'e (ngagedin a laudable effort to -im
prove our btre.-fs now, ljt we respectfully
submit that the method ot applying the
remedy is quite as bad as the disease. It
would cost comparatively little to wall up
our side-walks where such i3 needed, and
that is in a lew places, and then to be
filled up withsand, wo would have a good
a id permanent walk, but to take the mud
aod lcave3 out of the ditches, and pile up
on the side-walk, merely gives us a fine
lob lolly when over it rains. We fugeest
to oui authorities not to be atraid of spend
ing t quarter to put down a permanent
improvement. It will do much better than
fifty cents will, expense 1 in driblets of
fire cents a year.
Another Improvkmlnt.- 1c is gratify
ing to us to learn that our board of coun
ty commissioners have considered favora
bly our suggf sion relative to having our
court house tqu ire properly enclosod. At
their meeting on Tuesday, Uev. Mr. Itcici
and Caj tC. FT. Thomas W(re appointed a
committee to have the work done. They
prop ose having a nice rock wall put up
aron-nd the square, to be one toot above
the level, anil upon that an iron railing.--They
wish bids forthe contract to be sent
in at once, with estimate, tor the contract,
lor the ruck work. Thy wish it done iu
time to sow tlown lawn grass &c.
We are hereby glad of this. It will cost
but little, and we are an advocate of mak
ing our public buildings and their sur
rounding, places of beauty. We always
like to see a church yard .beautifully orua
mentcd aud kept in a high state pf culti
vation. We feel when we soe such th:.l
that congregation i proud of thiir holy
sanctuary.
It is just so with .othar places. If our
court square was neatly enclosed, nnd
planted in grasses, trees acd shrubbery,
how much better it would look even to the
iudtst nature, who would be glad of an
opportunity to epend an hour or bo in it.
Wo are heartily in fayor of this move
ment. Let it be pushed through speedily.
And wc would suggest alao, that the same
committee have tno court house paintedt
the windows and blinds repaired and re
painted, and the inner part of the house
white wasbed. We believe in neatness
every where.

certainly known to what brauch of business he
will turn his attention, but from relations recent

demand for dry goods will be made, and the
probability is that thst line of goods will be a
speciality.
