ovations and the machinery of its hoeing's, in these
columns yesterday most have set hie doubts at cwt. As we
have before intimated, the Evening Exchange is a gigantic
gambling house, as spleodid in ita appointments as
the other gorgeous dams up town that tempt men to
the faro table, mid breed crime, and ruin families and
reputations, and make subjects for the State Prison of men
who move is the "respectable" walks of life. The opera-

afflicted with an epidemic of crime which takes a special

A correspondent of the Birmingham Post writes
"At Wakefield, a few days ego, some German smattering'
called at the vicar's, and asked for permiesion to view the
house and grounds. It was accorded, not without surprise
at a sequin so notional. When the compatriots of Gcothe

it transpired that they bad made a pilgrimage, as they be-
lieved, to the scene of Oliver Goldsmith's stay, and that
the Vicarage was to them endeared by associations of Dr.
Primrose, Olivia, Sophia, and Moses. May the enthusiastic
Germane never be undeceived and dissechanted ! "
