Personal.—Our friend Ferdinam
Gates, returned from the Fast 01
Monday last, whither he had been t<
purchase a stock of spring and summei
goods. Although the large house o
Gates & Bro. is now pretty well tilled
with late and fashionable goods o
eyery quality and kind, Mr. G. inform!
us that a large portion of his stock b
yet to come; that when received an(i
opened, they will have one of tht
largest and most elegant stocks evei
offered in this section of country.
O- What lady would wear false hail
or curls, when, by an outlay of one dol
lar, she can procure an article that will
cause her hair to curl in wavy ringlets,
or heavy, massive curls ? „
It does not injure the hair, but on the
contrary, renders it soft, glossy and
healthful. It is equally efficacious in
curling the hair of the opposite sex.—
Messrs. Berger, Shutt- & Co.. Chemists,
of Troy, New York, are agents for the
same.

Give the Pkinteh Fair Plat.—We
have a piece of advice, says an ex
change, we wish to fix indeiilily upon
the public mind, that is to give the
printer fair play.
Do not forget that it costs something
to “puff” as well as advertise; and
never spunge in any way whatever. It
is the printer’s ink that makes nine
tenths of your fortunes; it makes mon
ey to buy iuk. tvne aud paner. and vet
utter all this, few are the thanks that
tlie printer gets. Give the printer fair
play ; give up all expectations of gratu
itous puffing, etc., and come down with
vottr remuneration. The great Amer
ican statesman. Webster, was right
when he said: “Small is the sum re
quired to patronize a newspaper; am
ply regarded its patron; no matter how
humble or unpretending the Gazette he
takes. It is next to impossible to till a
sheet with printed matter without put
ting something into it that is worth the
subscription price.”

-The Kiowas are on the war path,
having broken the treaty recently made
with General Hancock. They declare
for war to the knife. General'llanrock
sent word to them: “You shall have
war until every warrior cries stop!”
Troops and supplies are daily going
forward.
-Changes of fashion in dress
within a year are said to make a saving
of from ten to fourteen yards of silk
in each pattern, it is supposed that
the change will decrease the revenue
tax materially.
