Mr.. F. C. BANGs.-This popular young
actor has been for the past few days on a
visit of recreation to our city, and at the
earnest solicitation of his numerous friends
here has consented to give one OF his
charming series of readings at the Ex-
change Concert Hall on some evening du-
ring this week. Mr.. Bangs has always been
esteemed among the people Of Richmond
as f1rst-class actor and a pleasant and
agreeable gentleman. Since he left us,
winter before last, to engage in his profes-
sion where people were not too poor to
support it, he has had to contend with all
the prejudices, malignity, and meanness Of
the Radicals at Washington. He fought
them successfully, and returns to this city,
which he helped to defend for long time,
after brilliant engagement in Washington.
Let him have a rousing benefit.

ScHOoLMARMs." We are very sorry
when We see the boys hooting at these
persons along the streets, and are glad that
we have only witnessed it once. We like
to take it for granted that every one who
appears in female attire is q lady until she
is proved not to be so, and to treat her with
all proper respect. We recommend
this suggestion to our young friends,
and hope that their parents and teachers
will impress upon their minds that no good
can come of their shouting Freedmen's
Bureau" at the Yankee schoolmarms."
Such thoughtless sport is the ground of
many Of those frightful stories of pcrSecu-
tion which 60 to the North to exasperate
the fanatics of that section against us. Be-
sides, it i. undigniiied in any young gentle
man-and the youngest boy ought to be a
gentleman-to disturb females in the street.
But however strongly We may condemn
the boys, we more strongly condemn those
females who, when thus assailed, turn
and retaliate, screaming at the top Of their
voices at the boys, and uttering as they go,
for the length of whole square, epithets
abusive and insulting to the southern pco-
pie. Such retaliation is very rare, and
when it occurs, proves that the persons
who engage in it are deficient in sense, in
prudence, in refinement, and cannot be fit
persons to be sent here, in the present state
of the public mind, to perform the duties of
the delicate and responsible Office commit
ted to their care. They ought to be sent
home at once by the parties who control
them. One is led strongly to suspect that
| those who retaliate in this way are dis
posed to invite aggression. A woman
bawling and quarrelling in the streets will
bring discredit upon the sisterhood repre-
sented, and soon become public nuisance.
This hooting of the boys and bawling of the
schoolmarm occurred on our streets yes

A CRASH, WITH A MoRAL.-On Saturday
evening gentleman of this city, his excel
lent wife, and several visitors were sitting
in back parlor enjoying that colloquial
pleasure which is the inevitable result
when so many agreeable people are congre-
gated IN warm room during such weather
as this. Suddenly there was noise, ab
rupt, loud, and so full or shatterfng sounds
as TO indicate that glass was breaking and
things generally were failing to pieces.
EVERYBODY arose. The devoted mother
thought first of her children, and rushed
toward the stairs, in which direction the
noise evidently was not. The gentleman OF
the house, who has fixed idea about keep
ing the toes Of his slippers turned toward
the door in case Of an emergency, opened
the door to the front parlor, where the
noise seemed o,be.
A picture had fallen from its place over
the nlantel. In its fall it carried down a
very large kerosene lamp and other parlor
ornaments, while from the general wreck
on the rug there rose a most extraordinary
smell of sulphur, which soon filled both
rooms. The match box had been struck
and ignited, and every match was burned
in an instant. SUCH an event as this might
have occurred in the dead Of night. 1t
might have resulted in disastrous confa-
grafton, the origin Of which would ever
have remained mystery. Upon such q
slender thread do human affairs hang
suspended, which, like the string that held
the picture frame, may break at any time,
and startle us in the hours of security.

Snow SLIDE.-A heavy slide of snow
fell from Powers's drug store yesterday
morning, and completely buried ayoung
man who was coming out of the door at
the time. Wonderful to say, he sustained
no injury, but emerging from the avalanche,
continued his walk up the street.

BUzzARDs.-A number of our fellow
citizens of this class visited the city on
Saturday. We had the pleasure of seeing
a large party in the old field at Rock
etts, which is now thickly settled local
ity. They seemed to hover mostly about
certain odOriierous localities, indicating
that good breakfast was the special OBJ
iect of their search. Several were also
walking about on the sunny side of CHM
borazo Hill, evidently on accommodating
expedition. The presence of these visit
ors indicates the severity of the weather
and the scarcity of animal food in the
rural districts. As old Virginia gentle
men-gentlemen by instinct, and public
characters entitled to consideration for
long and faithful services, which have
proved highly beneficial in the places where
they usually reside-they are certainly
entitled to warm and hospitable recep-
tion so long as they conduct themselves
in their usuai stately and dignifed manner,
and hold themselves aloof from the de-
grading vices of city life. ..... ....
1t also occurs to us that this would be q
good time to initiate the example of our
fellow-citizens of Charleston S. c., and do
mesticate them here as public scayengers.
Such services are much needed, and the
Board of Health seems not yet to have
brought the Council and citizens up to
their own enlightened views and most COM
mendable zeal in the work of publication.
We respectfully recommend to the Board
to enlist these new auxiliaries, and rebuke
the tardiness of the City Fathers and the
sluggshness of the people by introducing
flock Of them into the town as regular
residents and high public officers, with all
necessary protective privileges and immu-.
mites secured by law.

two dollars and fifty cents for each set for
less than six teeth, one dollar for each set,
