poses to give an exhibition in front of the

citizens TO rcnumerate him for the
expense which will necessarily be
incurred. We learn that Our citizens will
be called upon, during to-day and to-mor-

from eaeh one solicited will be sufficient to
defray the expense of the exhibition, aud
we trust that all win respond liberally,
Prof Diehl was resident of this city nud

the fenian excitement in that city; ''The

STREET Railroads.&c. movement has
been stated by the various religious socie-
ties in New York for the purpose of rails
ing funds to sue for an injunction to re-
strain the street railroad companies from
running cars on Sunday, until such time as
test case may be submitted for argument.
There is no necessity for any such move
nrent here, for the simple and very good
reason that we have no street railroads in
Dayton. The project of building them,
once suggested with tOlerable degree
Of earnestness, has entirely died out, to the
regret Of many people who think they
would be great convenience and paying
investment to the company that would Icon
struct them. During the State Fair nu-
merous visitors here expressed their sur
prise that Dayton had no street railroads,
and the surprise was not singular or unnat-
ural.
With our large and rapidly increasing
population, our broad avenues of miles In
extent, and the disposition of our people to
patronize literally all institutions of pub
Tie utility, there is perhaps no city OF It's
/ size on the continent so well adapted to the
purposes OF street railroads. The subject,
at all events Ia one eminently deserving of
the attention of the large number of men
amongiis who have plenty of surplus cap
ital to invest in such an enterprise.
