Compliment 10 a Baltimore ,MGchanic The
superb hose carriage, constructed q short time
since by Mr.. William Simpson Of this city for
the American Hose Company Of Philadel phia,
certainly reflected infinite credit upon that
gentemau's abilities as an artisan; and the
Philadelphians were so well pleased with the
carriage, that they not Only paid him the slip-
uated sum, $500, but voluntarily rave him an
additional Sl00, and an excellent entertain
ment besides. This may be considered one of
the best compliments ever paid to a Baltimore
mechanic; and we may safely add, it was rich
ly deserved. Mr.. Simpson has recently re-
ceived orders to construct an engine suction
for the Union Fire Co. of Chambcrsburg, Pa.
one for North Carolina, and another for Ohio,
all Of which will be noticed when they are
sufficiently far advanced TO enable US 10 take
description of them,
.4ccidenL Immediately after the conclusion
of the performances at the Old Dominion Cir
Gus on Monday evening, some small boys who
composed part of the audience were amusing
themselves by pushing each other over into
/ the ring, and one of them by this rough play
! had his lett arm dlslocated at the elbow. His
cries called TO his assistance n Young medical
practitioner who fortunately happened to be
present In few moments the arm was set,
and the boy went home having received les
son to be more cautious in future.
To be Seen. The rarest collection of fancy
articles exhibited for sale for LONG time, NAV
now be seen at the Fair being held by the
ladies in the Annoy on the Point-ottomans
and rocking chairs, worked in the richest style;
beautiful cabinet ware, among which we no
/ tlce very handsome bureau, with marble slab
and dressing glass, made expressly for this fair;
also, a splendid embroidered piano cover, valued
at three hundred dollars. The collection of
articles present a beautiful appearance in con-
necton with the FURNISHED swords of the Ar
tlliery and muskets, with bristling bayonets, of
the 9th Regiment, tastetully arranged around
the walls OF the Armory, surmounted with the
American eagle and coat of arms. The pa
tronage has not been commensurate with the
zeal and taste displayed by the ladies in getting
up this collection, and at time like this, con-
sdering the object of the fair we cannot but
think this simple announcement will attract
crowds Of ladies and gentlemen to the Armory.
