The CITY Aims Honsa.

A few evenings since we accepted polite
invitation to visit this institution, at the regu
lar monthly meeting of the Board OF Over
seers, to take look at the products of the
farm. and to participate in such entertainment
as they might choose to offer We can as
sure our readers that this noble city institu-
tion is not only in good hands and well man
aged, but it is one in which every generous
and kind heart may be pardoned for INDUCING
degree of laudable local pride. sl
The farming operations have been exceed
ingly successful the past season. A very
heavy crop Of hay was cut, and every pound
of it was well cured and put in the barns with
out the slightest damage from rain. Some
dozen or fifteen fine mich cows are kept and
two pairs Of heavy oxen, with swine and fowls
to any reasonable extent. Nearly thousand
bushels of very nice potatoes have been raised
the past season, and the display of garden.
vegetables, such as monster cabbages, carrots,
turnips, beets, ETC., would do credit to small
Agricultural Fair.
The brick yard has turned out large
amount of bricks, and there is still remaining
in the yard large pile of surplus fuel, The
yard surrounding the house contains about
500 cords of good wood for the use Of the
establishment. Everything seems to be in ex-
cellent condition, and the inmates are evident
ly cared for as humanity and christian regard
for the poor and unfortunate demand that
they should be-. lsls s.
Anew receiving tomb has been built the
past season, which is a great Improvement as
the old one was in low, wet locality, and diff
flcult Of approach during the wet season Of
the year. ~ @
The new hospital, the basement and attic Of
which have been recently finished, though not
in use, is one of the best contrived and admir-
ably constructed establishments to be found in
the State, or, for q similar purpose, in New
England. -. - ,,..s ts,es, ~ y. !
Upon the whole, the institution is a credit
to the city, and a noble monument Of our pub
lie regard for the wants, the care, the pro-
tection, and the comfort Of the unfortunate.

OCTOBER TERM-KENT, j., PRESIDING.
FRIDAY.-The case ofHacker VS.. Pope ct
al. has nearly reached the jury, The evidence
was put in yesterday forenoon, and Mr.. But
Ter occupied the attention of the jury two
hours and q quarter IN his argument for the

This case is an important one, and has oc-

it is that neither plaintiff nor defendants can
