The Boston Transcript gives the following
description of one Of the attractions at the
Sailors Fair, now being held in Boston:
"The exhibition at Monitor Hall, on the
Common, for the benefit of the Fair, is singu-
larly appropriate to the times. A part OF the
Frog Pond has been enclosed, a wooden plat
form erected around this space, within which
the miniature monitor makes its continuous
trips. The model is perfect one of the orig
mai vessel, with turret, cannon and machin-
cry complete. The motive power impelling
the ingeniously constructed little war propel-
Ter is produced by the combustion of q liquid
which could hardly. do anything else than
gen crate steam. Asitplies round the circle,
with the noise of the machinery, and the
pufnng OF the steam, 1t is, of itself, most
novel and interesting sight. aaa
In the centre of the watery area devoted to
the uses of the Monitor, an island has been
thrown up, upon which redoubts have been
erected, and armed with cannon, which speak
for themselves, and with stirring effect, to the
auditory under the canvass. On one side of
the island is lighthouse, with a large war
vessel in the offing, and several smaller craft
near the shore. The Ram aMerIimac" is
moored off the opposite side of the island.
AS the Monitor steams by the "Merrimac,"
the guns in her turret are discharged, and the
compliment is returned from the batteries on
the island. In this way, the engagement con-
'tlnues, until success is supposed to have been
won by the Yankee "cheese-b box Mr., Jo-
seph Ray, of Pittsburg, is the maker of the
Monitor" and the vessel is creditable to his
skill and inventive power" .ss,

Deering Hall was well filed last evening
Notwithstanding the immense crowds and
great attractions outside. The plays were
admirably perform ed as everybody expected
they would be. Seldom do our citizens have
the privilege of witnessing such splendid act
ing as they had last evening. 1t was clear
up to the mark, and the auditors were greatly
amused. We have never known an audience
in Deering Hall more highly gratifed. Every
body knows what Warren is in his roles, but
we will not prrticularize when all did SO well.
This evening there viii be a rousing house,
and those who wish to see the " unimitated
and inimitable" Warren in Jeremiah Beetle
and Jonathan Chickweed will do well to Sc
cure their seats in the early part of the day.
The BABES OF THE WooD and the laugha-
BILE Farce of NURsEY CHIcKwEED will be
performed, and if these plays don't fill every
nook and corner Of Deering Hall then we
shall be greatly mistaken. A fund of amuse-
ment is Ia store for our citizens this evening,
and if they don't partake of it there is no
body to be blamed but themselves. There
win be lively time, and many sides will be
shaken andssome buttons lost on the occasion.
Warren is immense in producing such effects,
so let all look out for high old time.

0bsructing Commercial Street.

case oil much Importance to merchants OIL
Commercial street, was before the Municipal
Court yesterday, involving the right of mer-
chants to obstruct the street by discharging
and loading goods from and into the cars by
skids, after 4 o'clock, in the afternoon. 1t
was the case of Matthews e. Co. VS.. Kelsey
in which plaintiffs brought suit for trespass
against defendant for removing and damaging
their skds, which were placed across the
street from their shop to the cars after O'Clock
in the afternoon. J. H. Drummond ESQ. an.
peared for the plaintiff, and Messrs. Evans
and Putnam for the defendant. 1o
Counsel for plaintiff claimed the right To
loadand unload freight after o'clock P. M
from the cars, by virtue of the city ordinance
in relation thereto.
Counsel for defendant denied the power Of
the cityto pass any ordinance that shall OBJ
struct or prevent the free use of the street as
apubllc highway to the travelling public.
Judge Kingsbury, in rendering his opinion,
cited the Act of 1868 comforting certain pow
ers upon the city of Portland, and authoriz-
ing the city to ordain reasonable bylaws"
At the passage of this Act the ordinance in
relation to Commercial street was in force,
and 1t has never been repealed by the city, but
has simply been amended by changing the
time. M 4r8 rfagIsfa@S
1t was argued by defendant that, admitting
the ordinance to be within the legitimate
scope and power of the Municipal authorities,
yet it does not, in terms, allow the obstruction
of the streets by skids. at
To this the Court answered that though
true it did not in terms. yet the authorities
have practically recognized this construction,
and for years it has been allowed. The travel
on this street is generally over by A o'clock
in the afternoon, and the street is very wide,
and there is room to pass on the other side of
the cars, and the discharge Of freight by
skids can be accomplished in very short time.
On that street most Of the commerce, not only
for the city, but also for the State is transact
ed, and all reasonable facilities should be
granted our merchants doing business there.
Judgment was rendered for plaintiff. De-
PENDANTS counsel interposed an appeal, and
the case win go up to the Supreme Court for
adjudication. s9 s

pies and fruit are called for. If any person is
SO situated as to be unable to cook the poultry
