DEAR BENNETT -
Our city, yesterday, presented the appearance
regular holiday, and all work and no pay" did
not seem very popular apathegm with the mass;
the very antpodes of the proposition was in general
favour. Between our military guests, and the parade
of firemen throughout the day, in honor of the
turn of the Baltimore Committee of Temperance
Firemen from your city, the streets were piled up
with loafers of every description, and ladies' of every
shade and colour of character, from the high toned
magniico to the denizen OF the stew-al shared an
evanescent equality-all basked In Gods universal
sum- and were as happy as heaven and their own
conscience could make them. Temperance is do
ing its work among our fremen, and God knows, il
didn't too soon, for, although, am free 10
fess there are gentlemen IN the department, there
are likewise as great banditti associated there
with, as ever swung from gallows, or peeped
through the inerstices of penlteDtiary. God send
shower oil cold water upon them, or the devil
shower of Sodom and Gomorrah, that the melropo-
lis may be purged OF its dregs.
