Though We have many good byes" to say,
We have also many welcomes to repeat. We
would welcome the quiet of the place, and ere
long the music on our own beautiful pleasure
grounds which will draw out the beauty Of
our own city, which We do not see when the
city is crowded with ladies from abroad. We
welcome the lesser prices in the market, and
in all the stores, all the hotels and boarding
houses.
Now 1t is our private opinion whispered IL
the public ear, that Ne hsve not lost much BY
the close Of Congress. We have gained 9
chance 70 recupsrate We have gained th,
money to FIX mp with, and soon the sound o
the chissei and hammer will be heard in nearly
every street as the buildings, both public and
priv ate, are rising to welcome the coming o.
another Congress. -
PARrfsANsHIP VS. PUBLIC INTEREST The
Sentinel Of this morning says: The commits
sions Of several justices Of the peace for th,
county OF Washington, which expired durip,
the late session Of Congress, were not renewed
"know nottingham, 1T is shrewdiy suspected
being the hindering cause. As a consequences
the Third and Seventh Wards are now with
out police magistrates or, in ether words
justice especially set apart to attend to w ash
Ington Corporation business The City Coun
ellis will not elect to that Office persons othe
than those who belong to the American
party ;" and the Administration will not AZ
point men who are of that organisation
b.. Without touching The question Of right o
wrong, IL may be mentioned as fact tha Il
interests Of the city do and must suffer pecu
niarily AMI otherwise, if this state of thing
shall continue. Because q /" Know Nothing
justice carnot, in every ward, be elected Z
the situation Of police magistrate, il will n
justify the City Fathers in leaving the cfic
vacant. The appointment il required by mu
nicipal law, which should either be repealed q
carried into effect, according to our ideas 0
correct legisl alton
If the know Noihings will not appoint ar
but these of their own order to places Of trust
they cannot blame ihe present adminigtI a,icl
CT they follow their example. -.'
JoSADAB!-The members OF the JUNO
Order of r echsbi:es, OF the George Washineto
Tent. gave An entertainment last nixht in Ii
basement of the Sixth Presbyterian Church
The first part Of the evening was occupied i.
acting FIRE drama written for them BY on,
Of the senior order. II was very well done
and all the characters were well rendered es
pecially that OF the e" Lice young man" VIII,
goes down step by step, until he becomes
drunkard. After that was over, theT sap,
several pieces in a very fine manner. A Iarg
and -
selves we'll satisfied with the results
We understand that, by request, they wi.
shortly give another exhibition of the piece oil
the Island. and slso probably one at the Nav
Yard, where they have been invited to re
peal it. -
APPRENTIcED THIEvEs.-Ee have ofte1
heard it said that burglars, pick pockets, an
other thieves have apprentices, who are laugh
10 steal skillfully. We think there must be
great many Of these young scamps in thi
city who are becoming quite proficient in thei
trades great many houses have beel
robbed of door keys aud other small articles
and few days since boy was caught an,
punished in act Of taking the keys from
house in the Second Ward Other boys hay
been caught IN the act Of taking the news
papers from souses where they are left by tn
carriers. No one can see these little fellows
bad as they are, confined in the same prison
with old CfeIieIs and not feel that 1t is equiv
cd alent to sending them to q school of vice II
view Of there isots, therefore, We hope tina
some steps may De taken 20 establish an psti
tuition where these juvenile stu tents of Mo nit,
could be put under the care Of those who vii
teach them to do right An institution Of tn:
kind. established Immediately, would be 4
benefit to the city, aud in the end more than
Pay the incidental expenses. .-..
