"BoHEMrASs."- This title is used
extensively to represent certain at
taches of the press known as locals,
very proba bly, from the fact that they
indulge in no stronger drink than Bo-
'hea tea. This theory viii hold good
so far as "ye locals" of the Aduertiser
& Tribune are concerned.-Adp.
The advertiser S' Tribune is certainly
a very fortunate. sheet to find men OF
sufficient capacity to manage a local
column without departing from the
established standard. "Bohea" is
nothing to compare with the luxuries
some of the locals in this young City
have been indulging in for the last
few days.-Daily Enteprise Aonday.
The Enterprise editor-in-chief, who
has been compelled, much as he dep
recates the practice, to "sub" some
what extensively OF late, evidently
writes more in sorrow than anger"
in view Of the exuberent characters
tics of his own "local," who certainly
possesses all the qualifications set down
in the following paragraph from an
exchange, with much others
"It is easy enough to be local ed
itor, if you think so, but some special
qualifications are necessary to success.
For the enlightenment of young men
who have an itching that way, we will
enumerate some Of the indispensable
virtues, without which success is i'm
possible. A good local must combine
the loquacity Of magpie with the
impudence Of the ID: He must be
walking encyclopaedia of useful
knowledge. He must know how to
time a race-horse, gaf cock, teach
n Sundry sdhool, preach a charitable
sermon, run a saw mill, kaep hotel,
turn double Somersault, and brew
awhisky punch. He must be up to
thing or two in political economy, aa
fat in the matter of cooking BEANS
On the trial of mysterious items he
must be veritable sleuthound. His
hide must be like that of a rhinoceros.
He must be insensible to the cruelest
snubs, and manifest no sense of anger
vhen he Is Kicked do,on stairs. He must
throw modesty to the dogs, and let his
tiger howl"

ALpESA RouTE.-The staunch pas
senger propeller Skylark, which made
one trip to Goderich last week in place
Of the Huroa, has resumed her posi-
ton on the route between Saginaw
and Alpena, where she will continue
during the remainder of the season
of navigation, making, as heretofore,
two trips per week. 1t is greatly for
the interest of Saginaw, as well as "the
Shore" to have this route kept up +;
and no craft on the lakes is better
adapted to the situotion than the Sky
lark. 1t is to-be hoped no future ae-
cidents to outside craft will occur to
interfere with her regular trips.
The Skylark leaves this city every
Tuesday and FRIDAY at 2 o'clock p, M.

Ef2 The Pittsburgh Board Of Trade seems te
be languishing for attendance, and accordingly
the ComDierciai suggests the repetition Of Chi
cago strategy in q similar case. ~
"At time when the interest among the mem
bers Of the Chicago Board Of Trade tagged, and
the attendance was small, a practical member
proposed that q daily noon lunch Of crackers and
cheese--the very best quality-should DO pro-
vided, which should be paid for out of the treas
ury. Tho lunch was provided The fact was
published. From that day the Chicago Bonrd7oI
Trade crew.
We doubt If Pittsburgh can grow upon crackers
and cheese as Chicago has, even If they purchase
from the same manufacturers Furthermore, il
the accounts of the closing scenes Of the late
Board Of Trade banquet in Chicago are true, the
fluids which washed down the crackers and cheese
bore about the same proportion to them, that
bread did TO sack in Falstaf's well known "little
bill."-AdrertiSer y Tribune 49,. -.
BoARD OF TRADE.--It is said we have Board
Of Trade here, but on inqufing Of the Secretary
we could not learn that It had had meeting fol-
several weeks.-BGy City Item.
How about the East Saginaw Board
Of Trade? Is any other transaction"
to follow the sending of delegates to
the Grand international Drunk at
Detroit, or is that to be taken for the
grand elimination of the concern, as
it seems to be that of certain other
commercial organizations not thou
sand miles away.
Jolly, VERY.-A correspondent of
the Port Huron Commercial gives an
account ofan evenings entertainment
in that city, whereat the exercises thus
uniquely concluded:
To wind up, Mr.. Long, at the urgent
solicitation of all present, mounted a
three legged stool, and delivered few
neat and pertinent remarks, which, as
near as could learn, were to the fol-
lowing effect:
"E Eich bein lidder lipen. Nit der tri holsiken
wink NIT der eich comic suple-conc, init der nix
nox, knock dem all aeuterick NIT der brick
stine -
At this point the stool gave way
causing our orator to measure his
length on the floor, whereupon we
gathered him up carefully, and escort
ed him to his hotel, and we separated,
each one to his own sig tree" per
chance to dream that this is a jolly
old world we live in"
