Bargains than ever, at the Three Big
Doors.
THE subscriber would respectfully inform his en
toners and the public generally, that notwithstad
ing the unprecedented sales at the Three Big Doors,
during the present season . , he has still on hand the I,, r _
gest and most varied assortment of elegant CIO

The nubl!:;. ; may -- •
assured that all articles offered at
his store are maufactured from FRESH GOODS, pur
chased in the Eastern markets this spring and madein
to garments by Pitttsbuigh workmen.
In consequence of the multiplication of slop shops in
our city, filled with pawn brokers clothes and the musty,
cast off garments of former seasons, from the eastern ci
ties, the public should be cautious to ascertain the char
acter, of the establishments in whic they are invited to
Purchase, before they part with their money. The arti
cles offered- at several of the concerns in this city, arc
the mere ofrals of New York and Philadelphia slop
shops, and sent out here to be palmed off on the Pitts
burgh public. Purchasers 1.1 c• be on their guard a
gainst these impositions, and they may rely on the fact
ht ao establishment that advertises eastern made Clo
thing, can give as good an article or as advantageous
'lmigtiiris as can he had at the "Three Big Doors."
The public will please remember that all the subscri-
Ines garments are madeintkis city,by competent work
men, and not gathered isp like the ge oils new offered by
the . "birds of passage" from the shreds and patches of
,eastern slop shops. It will always be his endeavor to
-maintain the reputation that the. "Three Big Doors"
have obtained for furnishing a superior style of CLO
THING in every respect, and at prices below those of
any other establishment.
He would again return his thanks his be
fns and
the public for the unprecedented patronagest do wed
upon his establishment, and believing that they hare
bandit to their advantage to deal with him, he would
his invitation to all those who wish to purchase
of every -description at the lowest price,to call

PERSEVERE-NEVER DESPAIR.
Ott HOW TO GMT A DR EAKFAST.---/I, i 3 unl3 remark - -
ed in the New York Atlas, that every 'body encounters
difficulties and trials in our early struggles for fume
and fortune—some vet y severe ones. The weak=
hearted arc sure to miss the goal of their ambition—the
persevering are almost sure to attain it. There have
been few men of eminence who have Dot been in the
greatest difficulties, but they have fainted not.
Some cents ago, two gentlemen met on a brigitt bra
cing morning. Their appetite was as sharp, as the
weather. Neither of them had breakratted, and
!though one of them was of a very poetic teMperament,
there was at that time no object so sweet as coffee and
rolls—the thing for which he Was yearning.
"Lend me a shilling," said ho to his companion,
"and I will stand the breakfast."
A shilling! but a shilling! to administer to the wants of
these gentlemen, and to keep them from the pangs of
hunger! But their pockets lvere guiltless of the poss‘4.
sion of any coin of the realm.
"I haven't a shilling," said the person f iddressedi
"but there's a man I set up in a coffeehouse some time
ago. We can get breakfast there. It is a mile oin
though." .
They made nothing of the distance; and in diet
course of time, arrived atthe coffee house.
‘.Two cups of coffee and two hot rolls," said theLssi
speaker.
It was brought-4ut soon as it was placed on the te
bin, the money was demanded.
"0. charge it to me, Mr. ---."
"Never give credit. "No trust" chalked over th 4,
counter, — growled the fellow; and the coffee and hot
rolls, which had been placed under the noses of the
hunexv gentlemen, were removed.
"What's to be done!" crigd one. They pondered
moment, and then the coffee house keeper's paussii
said—
"Do you write r. song. and I'll set it to music.'".
The poet wrote one verse, and the musician set it td
music while his friend was composing the second
The two now started to Walker's music store, in Soho
square, London. and offered for sale the production.
"Play it over," said the publisher.
The musician played and sang it.
"I'll give you a guinea for it:"
It was readily taken, and the two went back to dial
e( free house, regaled themselves heartily, and gave the
ungrateful proprietor a lecture Which Would have bee*
death to a sensativu man, t-ut which was. of course, loot
upon him.
The one is now the most popular singer of the age;
and the. other is one of the editors of the London !dons::

WESTERN ELOQUENCE
- - -
"Gentlemen of the jury," said a Western lawyetii,
"it is with feelings of no onlinary commotion that I
rise to defend my client here, from the attacks which
have been made from his hitherto unapprochable chat:-
acter. I feel, gentlemen, that though a great deal
smarter than any of you are, even the judge himself,
yet I urn utterly concomitant to present this case In
that magnanimous and heart-rending light which iti
importance demands; and I trust, gentlemen, that
whatever I may luck in presenting the subject, will bet
immediately made up be your own natural good sense
and discernment, if you have gut any.
"The council for the prosecution. gentlemen, will enl ,
doubtiedly attempt to heave dust in your eyei; he will
tell you that his client i= pre-eminently a man of font
tion—that he is a man of undoubted and implacable
veracity—that he is a man who would scorn to foch an
action agin another merely to gratify his own corito=
rosity: but gentlemen, let me cautionnte you how tore
ly upon such specious reasoning as this. I mynnif
apprehend that this suit ha= been wilfully and maliCi
-lously fiteht, gentlemen, for the sole and only purpose
of brow-beatiiig my unhappy client herd and in an
eminent manlier grinding the face of the poor; and. I
1 apprehend also that if you could look into that man's
heart and read there the motives that hat.e impelled
him to fotch this suit, such a picture of moral turpen
tine aad heartfelt ingratitude would be brought td
• li g ht as has never before been exhibited since the Falls
of Ning,ara.,
Now, gentlerneml want to inal,e a brilliant air,
p: al to the kind symmetries of tout natur', and see if
I can't warp your judgments a little in favor of my
unfit tunate client here, and then I shall fotch my ar
gu to a close. Here is a poor man, with a nu
merous wife and child dependent on him for his daily
bread and butter, wantonly focht up here and arraigned
before an intelligent jury, on the charge of hooking--
yea, hooking six quarts of cider. You, gentlemen,
have all been placed in the same situation, and you
know how to fel for my client. and I humbly calcti=
late that you will not permit the gushing of you sym
pathizing heart.‘ to be quenched in the bud, by the
=urrnptitioua and superoragating arguments of my
imim-ant opponent on t'other side.
SsATISTICS OF LUCIFER MATCHES.--OueOf the wit
nesses before the Children's Employment Commission,
stated that he is a maker of the boxes fur containing
lucifer matches, and for the Anierican pine wood, of
w tick he makes them, he is in the habit of paying the
large sum of Ll,lOO a year. According to this belief,
from twelve to fifteen thousand grass of such boxes
as he manufactures were made every week in London
' during the year 13 , 11, Each boa contains fifty match:.
es. Upon these data the sub-comvrissii•ner calculates
that the weekly consumption of lncifor matches arrtl
uunts to 97,200,000 ,or 5.0i5,000,000 yearly.
The Cincinnati Chronicle a•tsigntt appropriate ion.;
portance to the coaltrade in the valley of the Minis;
-ipi. which, although now only in its. earliest infancy.
is destined to become nn object of vast concern. Id
the year 1.1:133, there were received at New Orleans
Gnat the interior r...'1,120 bushels °renal: while, during
the present year, the receipts there for the same quar
ter amounted to '255.568 bushels—being a tenfold in=
crease in ten years. The Chronicle remarks that the
trade in western coal at New Orleans, however, is only
an evidence of the increase, not of the quantity. not
consumption of coal in Cincinnati is four times that of
New Orleans, and the increase of the trade has been
nearly as great.

—Mks Leslie says; "In finishing the dress, take about
a yard and a half, or a yard and a quarter, of rather
broad twilled tape, sew the tape strongly in three
places to the lower part of the inside of the back, ex
actly where the body joins the skirt. It must be trews„.
ed precisely st the middle of the back, and at each of
, the side seams under the arms. When you pot on thaw"
