One ol lllnonisburit-'s best audiences, in quality, greeted the ladies and gentlemen ho took part in tho concert last Wcdncs day night at the Opera Houe. Every re served scat was occupied Tbe principal part of the programme consi-ted of quar- tetts by Mrs. D. C. Swsnk, Miss Katie It. Jamison, Mr. 1). O. Swank and Mr. L. S. Wintvrstren. Of Mrs. Swank it is unnec essary to speak. She has many admiring friends in this section. Fifteen years ago he sang at the concert in the Lutheran church for the raising of funds for a sol-- dicra'.mominicnt, and ever sinco she has been pleasantly remembered as a most de lightful songstress. She fully sustained her reputation on this occasion, and was loudly encored in her solos. Miss Jxmisou has a fine contralto voice, and the audience was captivated by her singing of "IJ iiuiie Sweet l.essie." As a encore the recited a young lady's experience at church She also re cited "The Kcd Jacket," description of a fireinans life. Mr. Swank sang "Happy be thy llreams" and was encored. His yoice is n good one, and though he was slightly hoarse it did not prevent any one from en joying It. Mr. L. S. Wintfrsteen surprised every body with his heavy bass. It was tbe first time he has appeared in public in this town. His name was omitted from the bills and from the newspaper notices at his own mod est request, but now that the coticert is over wo shall not permit bim to suppress men tion ol' the cr. dlt that is due him from the public and the Winona Company. He has been singing in this quartette for some time and it was at bis invitation that the party came here and gave their i-ervices gra tuitously. Prof. Nciinan is worthy ofis pectal mention. His expressive accompani ments to the t-ongs added greatly to the gen eral effect. It is not every one who can play the piano who eten accompany sinking sat isfaciorily. Prof. N'cimau can do both. In the haste with which the programme was necessarily made up his name was omitted from it, and the error was not discovered un til too late to make the correction. There was a duett by Mrs. Swank and Miss Jamison, one by Mrs-Snauk and Mr. Winterstcen. Prof, Nilcs and daughter who kindly gave their assistance, played a piano duett from the Opera of "II Trovatore." Prof. Niles and Paul E. Wirt played a duett on tho piano and violin, and Mr. Wirt eaug "Jack's Farewell," accompanied on tbe piano by l'rof. Niles, all of which was beautifully ex ecuted. Messrs Snyder and Winterstecn played on times with organ accompauiment with pretty effect. The entertainment closed with "Good Night Gentle Folks" by th-; quarlotte, and Mr. H. Iluckingbam, Presi- lent of the i inona, made a neat little speech thanking tbe audience for their pat ronage. Tbe piano used was furnished by Clomer Thomas of Danville, and was a first class instrument. The Estey organ was from J. Saltzer's room, and gave entire sat isfaction, All pontons who assisted have the sincere thanks of tbe company for ser vices.

The con tracting parties then advanced alone to Ihe chancel rail where Ihey exchanged vows and were declared man and wife.

ELWELL & BITTENBENDKR, Columbian Building, Noai Court House, EastSido OAK HALL, PHILADELPHIA. ' K ' " JVorth Knowing. Thcro is a place in Phila delphia where a stranger may buy his clothes, and fare as well as if he knew the whole city by heart ; and if he knows nothing about the value of cloths, or of clothes, he is as well off, as if he were a good judge of both. The reason is that every thing to be found there is made there made and sold under a system which rarely allows mistakes to occur, and which corrects them, if they do occur. Oak Mall is the place; and its practice may be summed up in a few words. If you get there what you don't want to keep at the price, you return it, and get your money back. This means a great deal more than appears on the surface. It means that you are not going to get what you will not want to keep at the price, if the merchant can help it. It means that the clothes you get there will be of honest cloths, honestly made; and that they will cost you less than as good clothes can be got for else where. It means that they will be every way better worth your money than you can get elsewhere for the same money. If it means anything less than these things if it means poor cloths, trimmings, cut ting, sewing, or in any way dishonest or illiberal dealing; the return of his goods will plague the merchant, injure his credit, and dissipate his trade. If it means these things if it means liberal and honor able dealing, valuable and trusty clothing, case and safety in getting it, Oak Hall is the place for you to go to, or to send to ; and it is worth your while to know how you can send, if it is inconvenient to go. Write; say what your occupation is ; say what sort of use you intend to make of the clothes you want, whether for every-day wear or otherwise ; what color you prefer, or what color to avoid ; say about what you want to pay ; say everything that you think may aid a stranger in choosing for you. You will get in reply samples of cloths and prices of what-ei-r you want made from those cloths. You will get also the means of having your measure taken by an unskilful person. Then; is only one diffi culty left. Somebody has got to take the risks of the dealing ; for there are risks. Send your money along with your order, That covers the risk as to your good faith. We risk every thing else ; the fit, and your satisfaction every way. Our trade by mail amounts to half a million dollars a year; there's no reason why it shouldn't amount to five million.?
