THE Police AGAIN-Every day brings to
light some more fragrant outrage by the seper-
sons, On the public. We are informed by cit
izen who witnessed the riot of Friday evening,
that there were two Irish Policemen on duty at
the time, who stood near by, and did not offer
to interferet Officer Reniger was not on du-
ty at the time, but he courageously arrested
two of the rioters, and locked them up, and
afterwards returned and got two more. Mean-
time these two had been pointed out by several
persons to the the two vigilant policemen, ,chO
refused to do anything. Can such outrages
be tolerated. Citizens, what arc you about.
Can laws he broken thus, the peace violated.
order trampled on, and the hired and sworn
guardians of law, peace and order refuse in
youw sight to execute their duty? Get up Pc
titions TO Council against retaining such men :
demand their dismissal, and have honest, brave
and intelligent men appointed; those who
have no national sympathies with any class to
interfere with their duty!
We wish we knew the names of the two po-
licemen. We should take pleasure in display
ing them to the scorn and Indignation of every
person in glazing capitals.

ANOTHER LAKE Although. Minnesota has
been christened the "Lake State" title it
will probably always wear, yet our citizens
were startled yesterday morning by the dis
covery of another placid and picturesque sheet
of water, not so transparent and pellucid as
most Of Minnesotas lakes, though, in the heart
of our City, covering several squares. 1t is In
the vicinity of the Fuller House, and has been
appropriately christened the ..CITY FAITH
RS LAKE" 1t is navigable to some extent,
and at noon yesterday, we saw some dozens of
Juvenile navigators sailing over its tranquil
bosom ON RATS, tubs, &c. Travel of course had
to turn several squares out of the way. II it
remains sometime, hundred ferry charters
will be applied for. One route, from the back
door of Aleck Wilson's tin-shOp to Sargent's
corner, would save some travel. Apply in
time, for we hope the denizens of that part OF
town will turn out en- masse and drain the
lake into the sewer on 9th street.

"The Old Arm Chair.''

love.it, love it, and who shall dare
TO cbide me for loving that Old Arm Chair;
I've treasured It long as holy prize.
I've bedewed it with tears, and embalmed
it with sighs
Would you learn the spell q mother sat
there,
And sacred thing is that Old Arm Chair.
In childhood's honor fingered near
That hallowed spot with listening ear
And gentle the words that mother would
give,
TO fit me to die-to teach me to live.
She told me i'll would never betide-
With truth for my creed, and God for my
guide,
She taught me to lisp my earliest prayer,
AS | knelt besides that Old Arm Chair.
] sat and watched her many day
When her eyes grew dim and her locks
were gray;
And l almost worshipped her when she
smiled,
And turned from her Biblo to bless her
child
Years rolled on--the last one sped,
My idolwas shattered, my earth star fed,
learned how much the heart can bear
When i saw her die in that Old Arm Chair!
'Tis past-'tis past, but l gaze on it now
With quivering breath and throbbing brow;
Twas there she nursed me-'twas there
she died,
And memory flows with lava tide.
Say it is folly, and deem me weak,
While the scalding drop starts down my
check
But love it-I love it, and cannot tear
My soul from that mothers Old Arm Chair

DOMESTIC PLATE GLAss.-The annual i'm
portation Of c, 100000 square feet of polished
plate glass into the city of New York, ut an
expense of 81, 90 per square foot has induced
the organization Of the U. S. Manufacturing
and Polishing Plate Glass Company, for the
purpose Of producing an article for home
consumption, at q cost of but little more than
one half Of what is paid for the imported
plate glass. Al an exhibition of the process
Of grinding and polishing plate glass made
yesterday by the newly formed Company, at
al Elm street, it was shown that the pro-
cess of grinding requires two hours and half
for each side of plate Of glass, and one hour
each for polishing, making seven hours for the
grinding and polishing of a plate. -Four
plates, each three feet long and two feet
wide, can be ground and polished upon beds
of the ordinary size. A coarse and fine quail
ity of beach sand are successfully employed
in the work Of grinding. and the polishing is
accomplished by moistened rouge upon bed
Of soft felt, which is grooved for the purpose
Of preventing suction. Specimen plates
which were manufactured in presence of O
number of invited guests, were closely exam
ined and gave general satisfaction. The Com
pany propose to manufacture 1000 square
feet of inch plate glass per day, at market
price OF G23 cents per square foot.-N. J.
