STEAMER RoEBUcK.-We regret to learn that
this popular Vicksb rg and Greenwood packet,
on her downward trip, last Sunday, ran against a
stump as she was trying to effect a landing at
Point LeAnre, and sunk. She had on board. at
the time of the accident, about 80 bales of Cotton
which we learn was recovered. We are glad to
learn that no very serious damage Was done to
the boat, and that she will soon be ready to RI :
sumo her regular trips.

The AIphadelphian.

This Literary Society. composed of young
ladies of the High School, held a Literary
Festival on Wednesday evening of last week.
The High School Hall was crowded by the
patrons of the school, and friends of the young
ladies. The exercises were all original. The
essays were well written; the paper had yarie-
ty and spice wherein were good thoughts, well
expressed, which proves that the exercise OF
composition has been attended to. The music
was pleasant to the ear, and the tableaux were
handsome, decidedly.
Young ladies educated at our high schools
and seminaries, should have societies of this
kind, as one of the aids in developing them,
physically, mentally and morally, that they
may go forth as guardian angels of the best in
terests of mankind.

found in nearly every department, the books
are so inaccurate, so many vouchers are
missing. (Which must be replaced, that it
is impossible at this time to give a correct

small amount, because Mr.. Bates made

The New Buildings.

A few weeks ago. we promised TO give q
short description of each of the new business
buildings erected in this town since the great
fire of last April. We will begin with that of
Messrs. E. E. Hoyt & Co.
This building is a part of what is called
the River Block, and stands on the west side
of Main Street. at the foot of Market Street,
running back 10 the Mahoning River. 1t is of
brick, SO by 65 feet, and 3 stories high
The basement is occupied as a storage room
fer heavy groceries, butter, DE. The coal
vaults are built under the side walk, Cas are
those of nearly every one of the new stores in
the town.
The first floor is in one room, and is occu-
pied by Messrs. Hoyt d Co, as a store, and is
well filled with goods.
The front is lighted by two large win
dows, of four panes of glass, EACH; the doors
are of the open front style, with windows over
the tops. each of a single large pane of glass.
The ceiling is supported by fiuted iron pill
lars, running through the centre of the ROOM.
The second floor, which is reached by a
broad close stairway on the north side of the
building, is divided into four rooms, and en-
trance hall: the front corner room is occupied
by Nessrs. Smith & Wood. attorneys, and lisa
very pleasantand accessible lawyers office
The south front room is for rent, and the 9th
ers arc used by Messrs HOyt d Co., for bed
rooms, storage, &c.
On the third floor are the Ambrotype rooms
of F. L. Leroy, The reception room is l6by
% feet. handsomely carpeted and furnished.
The operating room is l6 by As feet, and is
lighted by a large sky light, and an immense
window on the north side, II feet in height,
and some six feet wide. The sides and cell
ing of this room are painted dark blue. Its
great length gives any variety of focus which
may be desired in taking groups, dc. In one
corner is the magnifying room. furnished with
a double ceiling, slide, DC, and in the other
IS the dark room, with a reservoir supplied
with water from the roof. 1t is probable that
there is no better operating room in the eOun-
srr
