years to supply our composing room with suficiency
of light, by getting every possible Improvement in the
way Of burners and meters but find it almost impossi-
bic to do it. At different hours Of the night the light
varies and to such an extent that it is almost mpossi
bic to read ordinary BREWER print one foot from the
gas burner. Whether this in any way owing to the
arrangements at the gas house. Or to our superior and
costly arrap gemerts puzzled to TELL but rather
think there is too much experimenting at the gas

A Social C.rHERING.-A few evenings since We
attended an evening party in the locality so long
Known as the Five Points. II WAS gathering OF
friends, and the evening seemed to pass away most de-
hghtfully TO all the company There was no music TO
dsrce by though there was much TO exbarate. There
was no dancing, though there were many whose coun
tepances danced with delight. TIere was neither wine
nor "stropg drink" but the company drank in much
Of true and lasting good. There was very Little Of
fine dress but much of childish besuty which wren
"upaderned Is adorned the most. There is one sweet
girl whose parents live in cold and dreary attic room
In l. street. Her father esrns pttsnce by mend
ing shoes an accidental breaking Of wheel lai1
him up many weeks, and her mother does wha' she
can by making shirts. Together they manage to pay
the landlord and, with little aid to keep the vol
from the door. There was another girl whose mother
widow, lives at service but scarcely manages to pay
the dsushter's board. You would not observe, as
Won looked in her beautiful eyer, that che wore
a cheap and not over tidy dress. There Is
sweet winning smile that arrests attention. Poor
pi,ll she has since gone TO her rest. III you
go with rs down Worth street, and enter the
ward in the rear Of Nc. 8, you will find the res
dence of two more of the company. You VIII, per
haps imagine yourself in country oarn'yard; Oh
do lot fear the filth in the patb-back IN thai httie
"cottsge" she lives. She was all the more happy IN
the party, because of the contrast with her home.
There are three more Of the company who hive with
their widowed mother st No. 10 Mulberry street.
They are not dressed in silk for the mother makes
