Mischief Makers.

o ! could there in this world be found
Some little spot Of happy ground,
Where village pleasures might 80 round,
Without the village tattling
How doubly blest that place would be
Whore all might dwell in liberty,
Free from the bitter misery
or gossips endless prattling
II such a spot were really known,
Dame Peace might claim it'as her own, .-
And in il she might fix her throne
q ef Forever and forever;
There, like queen, mightreign and live
While every, one would soon forgive
The little sights they might receive,
,sofa And be offended never.
n gre.a ec
The mischefmakers that remove
Far from our hearts the warmth Of love,
And lead us all to disapprove
What gives another pleasure
They seem to take ones part but when
They've heard our cases, quickly then
They soon retail them all again,
Mixed in poisonous measure.
And then, they've such a cunning way
OF telling tales. They whispering say,
Don't mention what say l pray;
would not tell another cf
Straight to your neighbors house they go,
Narrating everything they know,
And break the peace of high and low
Wife, husband, friend and brother.
o that the misunderstanding crow
Were all reduced to one or two,
And they were painted red or blue
That every one might know them;
Then would one village sure forget
To rage and quarrel, fume and fret,
And fail into an angry pet
With things so much below them.
For it's sad, degrading part,
To make another's bosom smart,
And plant dagger in the heart
We ought to love and cherish.
Then let US ever more be found
In quietness with all around,
While friendship peace and Joy abound
And angry feelings perish.

MAKING PATRIOTISM PAY.-The New York
Herald says that some persons, who were in
straitened circumstances before they got their
fingers into matters connected with "Soldier's
Fairs, now keep their carriages and live in
style. 1t is also said that some Of the philan-
thiopic managers of Sanitary Fairs and other
charitable enterprises developed by the war, are
''making good thing" out of their devoted la
bors. 1t is believed that the larger proportion
of the money collected to aid these objects is
absorbed in "expenses. f"

LONDON PAvEMENT.-The great pave
ment of London is one of the greatest mar
vels of our time. 1t covers 5000 acres, two
thirds whereof consists of what may be called
Mosaic work done in plain style, and the
other third done of smooth tagging. Such
series of work far transcends in quantity
the Appian Way, which was the wonder of
ancient Rome, and which would cut poor
figure contrasted with one of her commonest
streets. The ancient Consular Way was but
fifteen feet wide in the main, and was filed
with blocks of all shapes and sizes, Joined to-
gether and placed only on the surface. The
length of its devious course, from north to
south of Italy, was under three hundred
miles, The paved streets of London num-
Der over 5000, and exceed over 1000 miles
in length.

CARELESS LETTER WRITERs.-The re-
port of Postmaster Dennison shows an ex-
traordinary amount of carelessness on the
part of the letter writing community. Three
millions FIVE hundred and eight thousand
three hundred and twenty FIVE dead letters
were received during the past year-over
nine thousand day. Many of these letters
contained money, deeds, bills of exchange,
drafts, checks, jewely and other valuables.
Some of them were misdirected, others were
not directed at all, others unstamped and
others only partially directed. Thousands of
these dead letters were returned to the wri-
ters; but the great majority had to be des-
troyed. This statement ought to teach the
public to be more careful in their correspon-
denee; for the amount of suffering caused
by these lost letters is incalculable.

Shaw's Concert.

1t Is rare that compliment is rendered to
singers, so well merited as that proposed to
Mr.. Shaw and his accomplished associates
And the chief value of it is, that it is the
! spontaneous expression of our citizens, and
entirely unexpected by its recipients. q
No singers in Portland are held in higher
estimation than Shaw's Quartetts. OF their
ability in their profession we need say moth.
Ing. The judgment OF the public has long
since been emphatically and unanimously pro-
nouneed in their favor. .ni
But added to their acknowledged ability as
singers, is the universally recognized TACT that,
for the last four years, they have given their
gratnitons and -iuvafuaDIe services to every
movement tending to aid the country in its
struggle for unity, or to alleviate the suffer
ings of the sick and wounded soldiers Of the
Republic. Besides this, they have ever teen
ready and willing to help every noble charity
Of our city. Their earnest patriotism and
generous selfsaeriice should now, in the glad
hour of the nations triumph, be gratefully
and substantially recognized 4D
We have no doubt it will be. Not only will
all who attended the Independent Course OF
Lectures be present on FRIDAY EVENING at
the City Hall, but all others who admire high
musical talent united to, and consecrated by,
a lofty patriotism. . r.
We anticipate crowded Hall, whether the
weather be fair or unfair. The programme

THRATRE.-A large and respectable audi
ence assembled last evening at Deering Hall
to witness the debut Of the comedian Mr.. T.
G. Riggs, who appeared as Barney o. Toole in
6 Lord Barney's Castle" and Nicodemus
hobbs in Turn Him Out" We only wit
messed Mr.. Riggs performance in portion of
the first play; and therefore are not prepared
to give an opinion OF him as a comedien. Bar
ney O'Toole is not one of cur favorite charac.
tiers but we presume Mr.. Riggs presented the
character as the author intended it. The au-
dience seemed to be well satisfied. 1t seemed
to us that his role was overrated and yet
such character, perhaps, must be a little
strained in order TO give full force to it. That,
however, may be matter of taste, and not
subject of dispute. The play went off very
well SO far as we witnessed it. The hall has
been very much improved, and now looks like
a snug cosy theatre, where people can sit with
some comfort. We are glad the improvement
has been made, and clothes will be no longer
soiied.
This evening the comedy of "All that Gilt
tiers is not Gold" and the farce of the "Irish
Mormon" will be presented, in both Of which
Mr., Riggs viii appear. The characters of
Tobey Twinkle and Brien O'Lynn are said to
be two of Mr.. RS best presentations.

who open it to the public this evening for the
first night of the season. They have fitted it

the floor elevated and inclined towards the
stage, and a division put up to separate the
dress circle or orchestra seats from parquette.
The stage itself is brought out.so as to give
plenty Of room for the scenery and actors, and
every arrangement has been made to make the
room comfortable and attractive. The scenery
and dress curtain are very lastly executed.
Tonight two plays will be given The eel

AN expedition composed principally OF the
ISL New York mounted rifles, left Norfolk on
tne 1st inst, on rec nnoissance up the
Cnowan River with the intention, if possible,
OF reaching Weldon. N. c., which resulted
with entire success. The cavalry struck the
seaboard and Roanoke railroad and demoli sh
ed the track for a considerable distance -
While thus engaged they were attacked by
ooO rebels, and after severe fight, succeeded
In repnlsing them. The cavalry then fell back
to Murfresboro', where their booty was de-
livered to the gunboats.
Amongst the captures were 100 bales su-
perior cotton; large amount of tobacco and
snuff, and 80 prisoners.
Parties OF the cavalry secuted to within a
few miles of Weldon, and from prisoners taken
they learned that the town was strongly forti-
fed and garrisoned by a force of 1000 rebels
with several batteries of artillery. The ex-
petition returned last Saturday.
This expedition is said to be the largest
sent into northern North Carolina, and ac-
comptsheda great deal of good in ascertain
ing the exact locality of thesrebel forces in that
