The Festival The Annual Festival of
the Mission School, Buckeye street, was
held on Thursday evening in Clayton Chapel
The School is under the efficient, saperinten.
denoe Of Mr.. Ezra Clark, an estimable gem
tleman, who has given great deal of time
and attention to the enterprise. He is assist.
ed in the good work BY number of ladies
and gentlemen who, like their Superintendent,
feel it TO be pleasant duty to take charge of
the moral culture and intellectual training
of large number of children who are not
otherwise provided with Sabbath School facil-
tiles.
The children had been for some time very
anxiously locking towards their Festival, and
when the occasion arrived they were highly
elated-running over with noisy enthusiasm
which wohldn'tbe suppressed, despite the Of
forts Of the whole adult force But we we're
rather pleased with the affair there was no,
thing rude or captous about the little noisy
muldfudei we are sure they tried to be still
the confusion was genuine outburst Of juye.
nile life and joyousness, ~
The exercises were begun by singing, and
the little folks eyinced an unusual acquaint-
anee with music aud harmony. They kept
excellent time, and their melody was charm
ing Their musical, like their moral training
has been carefully attended TO-
The Managers had provided nice treat
for the children, and about 8 o clock the ex.
tras were passed around. Apples Pop. corn,
&e, were distributed by the basketful Then
carneithe "eotndcopias' Little paper sacks
filed with goodies, which were intended for
the little ones to take home. We learn that
l5O of these packages were prepared, and as
the. highest aitepdRnce sof scholars, does not
exceed ITO, it was estimated that an abun-
dance was provided to meet any respectable
emergency Quite number OF outsiders
ipsinuated themselyes among the members of
the school, and some Of these we're rather
large to pass for children They had the
cheek TO do it aud number of the poor
little ones were cheated Of their Just dues !
The children were addressed by Reys Fur
gusOn and Van Cleye, and others, and the
Festival was adjourned at an early hour, :
general good feeling persadibg the old and
young.

The n. Y. World thinks the Republican
Caucuses, of the House of RepresentatiH es.
mean to put the screws on the President, and
to put Seward out, first, because they cordially
hate him, and second, because they wish to de-
termine the conditions Of peace. We quote:
''When the war ends, It's their purpose that
the Union shall consist only OF such States as
will give them chance Of retaining control OF
the Government In the old Union they are
doomed in Union which should include the
Border States they have little expectation Of
retaining their ascendancy; and they attribute
to Mr.. Seward the policy of concilia'ion toward
the Border States, which, they assert, has pre-
vailed in Fir. Lincoln's. Cabinet, and which
gave to bis first Of January proclamation
form that makes it imperative.

cline very slowly.
There is still plenty of water in the
channel hence to Louisville and Cairo
for all classes Of boats, but there is but
little doing and the only activity mani
tested is on part of Uncle Sam, who is

ted above, several boats passed down
loaded with government stores without

The Cumberland and Tennessee Riv-

and the best possible use is being made
of this fact.
