his acquaintance with them commenced only at
the time of their being placed under his charge,
and the consequent uncertainty OF his opinions
respecting them, goes on to say, "Tnere are

ge and intemperance, 4 children of intempe-
rate parents; blad, caused by intemperance;
5 cripples; 90 paupers and Migrants, all intempe-

do not believe there are but 2 persons, except
the 4 children, that are temperate" disgust
ing exhibition this Of facts, that have but too
long been passed by UNDECIDED; and gives to the
virtuous and industrious part of the community
some idea of the cravings of that cancer whose
roots are found in the wholesale, as well as re-
tail sale of ardent spirits; and they put it to them
to decide, whether some effectua steps should
not at once be taken to diminish or remove this
evil.
In marking the progress of the temperance
Reform, your Committee with pleasure report,
that they are in possession OF a list containing
the names of ships, 5 brigs and schooners,
comprising all the foreign, and part OF the
coastng tonnage of this port which are sailed
entirely without the use of ardent spirits.
In closing your Committee would remark
that the effects of the labors Of the past whilst
they bear but small proportion to what re-
remains to be done, in their humble opinion, are
still sufficient to prove, that complete retorma-
ton Of society, in this particular, lies within the
! reach of their eXertiOns; and that the prospect
| calls earnestly upon US, as christians, and as
| good citizens, TO redouble our efforts in kind
! ness and with discretion, to accomplish this OBJ
I iect in itself so desirable.

Loss OF LIFE THE LATE FIRE.-On Wednes-
day last while the workmen were removing part
of the ruins on the site Of Mr.. Boomers factory
they discovered the remains Of one Or more hui
man bodies, which there is little doubt belonged
to some persons who unfortunately persisted in
the fire on Saturday nigt This discovery was
for some reasons not very obvious kept con-
cealed by Mr. B. until yesterday, when it was
communicated to one Of the morning papers,
The Coroner was kept in ignorance of the cir
cumstance until this day when he became casu-
ally acquainted with it, and is now taking the
necessary steps to have the unfortunate affair

Curious FACT METEOROLOGICAL is singular
fact that at Cledveland in Ohio, so high north,
the mercury during the late cold spell neverrang-
ed below dgs & has at no time this winter been
under zero. On the contrary the winter has
been mild and soft. The solitary exemption
enjoyed by this part Of Ohio while all our vast
territory and extreme ATTITUDES were suffering
must be ascrbed TO the mider temperature pro-
duced by the influence of the great lakes east of
it.--At Cincinnati CO.. the same moderate
weather was observed-N y Star.

BANK PRoJEcrs-Mr. Merrick, from the COM
mttee of Ways and Means, yesterday reported a
bill to incorporate the Merchants Bank of BALI
mare. We have not examined its provisions,
but understand that it is intended as an old
fashioned monied institution with capital of
two million Of dollars which may be increased
five hundred thousand dollars if the State with
in two years takes the sum of $250,000 at any
time thereafter
Mr.. Teackle, from the select committee, has
also reported project comfortable to that
which the public are apprised of his having had
a bill reported in Congress TO effect, as gener-
al monetary project. The capital proposed
in the latter bill is two and half Millions

The great apparent increase is accounted for by
the Inspector, in the fact that in June, 1885,
law was passed in Council, subjectng all domes
tic spirits brought into this place, to reinspection
a large portion Of which did not before come
under his notice.. He ventures the opinion that
the quantity OF spirits from the back country is
very much diminished of late years. We regret
the absence of all records that might enable
the Committee to exhibit the quantity of spirits
consumed in town, or to institute comparison
in this respect, between the present and past
OF the effects of this traffck so abundant
throughout our community, in common with
others, exhibited in idleness, ignorance, loss of
character, poverty and wretchedness, your COM
mittee can, at this time, say but little. But. that
their fellow citizens may have some idea of the
heavy burdens imposed upon them by this trade,
thew will state that on application to the officers
of the county JAIL they were informed, as pro-
bable estimate. that at least nine-tenths of the
inmates OF that institution, except the debtors,
are Incorporate.

The sun sinks broadly in the west;
And fainter as his radiance glows,
1carce needed falls Ger natures breast
s The languor of soft repose.
Zach breeze is hushed-each leaf is still

And gliding round yon graceful hill,
3 The meek stream laves its silent shore.
9h-vain as fair--thou fleeting light!
Who now may in thy charms confde!
% shine Earth's pageants, false and bright,
And pass like sails on oceans tide.
IA swift succession onward go
To live and fail day after day,
thus human joys deceitful glow,
And fade like waning light away.
I'VE wandered oft amid these bowers,
And heard sweet notes from every bough;

Where all is sad and silent now.

not disposed to question his saying, that
"last week one of the locomotive engines
came atlowart drove Of cows, and not
withstandng every endeavor of the engineer
to hold up, three of them were run down !;
the last one of the three was literally broken
up, and the head forced into the furnace,
where, before it could be extricated, il was

Presentations al European Courts.--
Noah is very facetious upon the empty and
silly vanity of those of our coantrymen
who are so feverishly anxious to be intro
duced into the courtly circles of Europe.
He remarks.
"What is visit TO court, that our fair
countrywomen and sober citizens should be
so anxious for that honor? We have seen
so much of it, and have been so amused
with the worrying, teasing, tormenting notes
Of preparation--the changes of weather,
the expense and selection Of dresses--the
anxiety, fretfulness, hope, curiosity and
feverish temperament Of the parties 'destin-
ed for this high honor as the Baron Pun
polino has it, that we would not forego our
comfortable tea and toast, before a good
fire in November at home, for all the fam
ced attractions of the place and its anxious
inmates. First, you must pay court to
your minister, and entreat the honor of be-
ing popped down among the pigeons in his
list of presentations at the royal drawing
room; and if you should happen not to be-
long to tie party, he may be disposed to
fob you off, until his number is raced.
Then a dozen consultations and caucuses
about the dresses the ladies' are 10 wear /;
innumerabie visits to the shops: the ex-
pense of lama dresses, diamond hobs, loops,
Brussels lace, ribbons and ostrich feathers;
then the fuss about the hair-dresser; and by
the time the poor girls are rugged out for
the presentation, and the gentleman furnish
ed with their court dresses, the whole party
are tagged out and only fit to go to bed.
Then the whole concern are squeezed into
a narrow carriage, to the great danger of
rumbling their ruHs and dsconcertiug their
fardingales then the coach has TO fall 10
the rear of one hundred carriages preceding
them, and wait for their turn. They enter
the place gate descend; ascend the grand
staircase; pass through double rows of
sentinels; enter the grand drawing room i;
stand in the crowd until their names are
called, then tremblingly enter the presence
of the king, queen, dukes and duchesses,
standing stifIiy erect, and looking as proud
as Lucifer. Mr.. and Mrs Poomstock, OF
the Bowery; the two Misses Flncy Mincys
of the Bowling Green; Col Pluck, aid-de-
camp TO General Mintdrop.' low bow,
stiff curtsey, and pass on. Thus in at one
door and out of another; hasty glance at
the company; flourish Of trumpets from
the royal hand waiting an hour in Il damp
antchamber of the great hall for your coach,
and thus ends q presentation at court It's
sheer fiummery and humbug costly, fati-
guing, and evanescent."
