ASwEEPING AssERTIoN.-0ne of the speakers at
the recent mass meeting of the mechanics in Monu-
ment Square. made the bold assertion that while
there are three thousand grog shops this city there
is not single mechanics library" This assertion is
certainly not very complimentary to the mechanic;
OF our ciy-lndeed, it does them positive Injustice
as the facts of the ease will demonstrate We have
taken the pains to inquire at the Common Pleas
Clerks Office where licenses issued and find that
the total number of places at which intoxicating
drinks are sold-incudng lager beer saloons-is I'M
der t'ro thousand, one-thrd less than the assumed
statician makes it. Now, to the other branch of
the assumption, the speaker was still more at fault
Instead of there being not gle mechanics library
In our city, there three, certainly and for aught
we know, may be more. The Maryland In
stitute-which is cmphaticay n mechanics insttu-
tion-has library of over Il, 600 volumes to which
there are 200 subscribers. The Odd Fellows-whch
Order is made up almost exclusively of mechanics
have library of over 1909 Volumes II ,321 in Eng
fish and 5,79l in German. Forthe year ending March
3lst, 1865, the number of books taken out of this
library aggregated % 22l. There is also mechanics
library par ercetlence, on Federal HILL containing
we learn, some 600 volumes.
And besides the public libraries visit to the homes
OF the industrial classes would reveal the fact that
there is tount of knowledge in almost every house
IN the form of a well selected library. Kept there
not for ornament only, their well thumbed pages Civ
ing evidence that the me is combined with the dulce
in their possession.
We take pleasure in indicating this worthy class
of our citizens from the aspcrsion that they spend
their leisure moments in shops instead of in the
family circle. improving their minds in reading.
OysTERs.-The weather is decidedly cool about
these days, and the oyster season is fairly in
augurated One who claims to know all about this
species of bivalve gives the following interesting
facts concerning it:-Each oyster produce 200
UOo eggs. Each young oyster is the hundred and TWEEN
tleth of an inch in length, and about two millions
may be packed within the dimensions of cubic inch.
About one half of all the young oysters are eaten up
by the old fish. Oysters attain their majority in two
years The majority of those eaten by bivalvulous
man, however, are only about u years of age.

The GREAT BILLIARD MATCH IN New foRK.-For
the benefit of our readers interested in billiards,
give below q summary of the exceedingly brilliant
contest in New York. Thursday night, between
Pierre Carme and Dudley kavanagh The match
played at Gallaghers room, in 9th street, and
was witnessed by over twelve hundred persons. NJ.
Carme soon after his arrival in New York, some
months exhibitions at the Cooper Institute,
and on his first appearance challenged any player in
America TO play him match each in the French
carom game, the four-ball American game, pushed
barred, and the full American game, played for
the championship for LOCO side. These cha-
lenges, with some notifications were accepted by
kavanagh, and since they were definitely determined
on have created great excitement in billiard circles
throughout the United States. Indeed, among the
spect ators were many prominent billiard men from
all sections Of the country, including John Deery
champion of America; Melvin Foster and Michael
Geery, of Washington; r. t. Ryall, James Palmer
and Chris. Bird of Philadelphia; VIM. Goldthwait,
of New Hampshire and John McDevitt of Illinois

To carry out our covenant
And take you to my home"
Says Bill, "All right, Old Devil,
Just beat here while go
To bid my family good bye,

Old Satan to accommodate,
Picked up the heavy sledge,
And beat away with all his might,
Upon the iron wedge.
He beat away for several weeks,
From night again till morn,
Till spying Bill pass by the door,
When he was faint and worn.
From this internal thing

Nor trouble you till spring."
