PICH1o.-The Infrmary children under
Superintendent Smith, with the Matron, MrE.
Smith, had nice little picnic Saturday, at
Colts Farm, on the St. Clair Road. We are
glad to see that the Superintendent feels the
necessity of furnishing the little bOyish
pleasures to the children which so many ex-
cellent people, of a matter-Of-faet turn, are
apt to forget. "T'is only pauper whom
nobody owns" is a sentiment which the
infants must feel the force of soon enough to
answer all iatslts and purposes.

gathered five hundred horses and mules, thirty
five vehicles and two hundred and fifty contra

taken prisoners and brought here.
Times special has the following:
From prisoners taken last evening have OBJ
tanned copies Of the Richmond Wing, and Dis
patch Of the 9Th, which contained Jackson dates
Of the 3d. The result Of the attack Of Vieks-
burg thus far is very encouraging to our side
The enemy has been repulsed IN every attempt
to storm the works. Grant must be compelled
to raise the siege in a few dBys. The storming
of the works is looked for in short time.

LABOR AT A PREMIUM.-Quite an inter-
esting little time occurred on Lighthouse
street Sabbath afternoon, which was Partici-
pated in by some forty men and couple of
railroad contractors. Each contractor was en-
deavOring to engage the men, one offering
ten and the other eleven shillings per day.
The rivalry Waxed warm, and at one stage Of
the proceedings came nearly to blows, and the
crowd participating in the excitement, gave
that portion of the city the appearance of
Donnybrook on Fair day. What the matter
would have terminated in, had not the police
arrived, is hard to tell. The appearance of
the officers restored quiet. No arrests were
made.

The CLEVELAND DRIVING PARK AssoCIA-
TION--A number of our leading citizens as
ssmbled Saturday evening at the Angler
House for the purpose of forming an assOcia.
ton to procure tract of land to be used as
driving park. Our well to- do citizens have,
as we have already hinted, a strong Dredilec-
tion for elegant horses. A man who owns
anything respectable that way takes some
little pride in having people know the fact.
1t necessarily follows then that there should
be horse dress circle; that is, a place where
a gentleman can drive his family, enjoy the
air, see the crowd, and compare his beast
with his neighbOr's. Such place should be
orderly, free from any opportunities to get
liquor, any facilities in the way of horse
racing, betting, or gambling of any descrip-
tiOR, and the men who have taken the matter
in hand kave determined to make the institu-
tion such a one as every father can support.
Those who know what Hyde Park, and
Rotten Row are to the Londoners can appre-
ciate the pleasure which will in time accrue
20 our citizens from the present movement.
The organization of the association will
consist OF President, Vice President, Sec
retary and Treasurer, and a Standing Com
mittee of three to decide upon the character
of candidates for membership. The follow
ing directors have been elected: WI. Cor
don, D. P. Rhodes, H. S. Stevens, E. N.
Keyes, W. Edwards, G. B. ssnter, J. P. Ross,
J. W. Fitch and D. B. Sexton.
The place proposed at present for park
is the Fair Ground. The driving circle will
ciroumsoribe the whole tract, and proper az
rangements are to be carried out to make the
spot pleasant scene.
Members will be assessed five dollars an
nually for expenses.
We look forward with some curiosity for
the perfection of the project.
The Association meet in the Gentlemen's
ParlOr Of the Angler House again to night
at 4 o'clock, to listen to the report of the
Committee appointed at the last meeting
We doubt not but that there will be an en-
thusisstic attendance.
