The Boys OF Richmond are fast set. On
Christmas Eve, crowd of them were en-
gagged in firing crackers near the City Hall,
when the Mayor went out to demonstrate
with them While those in front were lis-
tcning to his remarks, two crept up in the
rear, and attached two packs to his coat
tails and set fire to them. This "fre in the
rear" diverted the attention of his Honor
from the enemies in front, who made their
escape under cover Of the smoke Of battle.
After performing several feats Of agility,
his Horror concluded TO return indoors, and
let the boys alone

PEGS VS. TYPE.-In Confederick times,
the building we now occupy as an office
was used as cobblcr's shop, by various
co'orcd gentlemen, long since departed
to places unknown, or to where good
darkies go, or some where else, but it is
not used for such ignoble purposes now,
we do not patch old solcs, or fix up
understandings, We don't deal in leather,
either upper or lower, and the place
which once knew these respectable dar-
kies, now knows them no more forever.
They are gone, g|inmcrlng perhaps, but
gone so far as our purposes are concerned,
and will not return this year any how.
Every once in a while, and occasionally
ohencr, we are visited by some brother
or sistec of these departed cololed sons
of CriSpin, and asked if one of them is in,
or if we have any shoe pegs or sole leath'
er to sell. 1t is enough to make cross
eyed man look double, or mistake some
one else's wife for his own, or spank an
other mans children. Its not a shoe
shop, we are not cobherS, don't deal in
leather, pegs, bradS, avis, or have we
any knowledge where Simon, Peter,
Moses, Lawrence or NicodemuS are at
present. Dear colored brethren this is
not shoe shop, do you hear.

learn that Gov. Fairchild has appointed BY
Ron PAINE, Esq, of Milwaukee Judge of the
Supreme Court of this State in place of Judge
Jason Downer, whose resignation is to take
effect the 18th of September next. Judge
Paine, once held the position of Chief Justice
of the Supreme Court, which he resigned for
purpose of taking command of regiment in
the field, near the close of the war. We doubt
much if an appointment could have been made
which would have been more acceptable to
the people than this. Judge Paine was elect
ed by large majority, and While on the
Bench gave general satisfaction, as an able,
impartial and incorruptible Judge upon whose

a Great Invention,

One of the most important inventions OF
The age, is "Fellenbaum's Patent for balancing
Mill Stones, " and it is the greatest improve
ment ever made in milling. This improve
ment which is being introduced in the North
west saves to the country from one to three
pounds of flour from every bushel of wheat
ground, and ensures far superior article Of
flour from the same quality of wheat. The
improvement has been introduced in manv of
the leading mills of Chicago, such as the Star
& Crescent. The Chicago City Mills, the Ma
pie Mills, Robinson & Rice's Mills. Lanes

PROGRESS on the HarbOr Improvement.


The work on the Harbor is progressing rap.
idly under the faithful and energetic direction
of contractor Parker. A large amount Of
earth has been taken out and few weeks
more of good weather will finish up the dred-
ging of the channel. Yesterday the last crib
of the south pier was put down. This makes
eleven cribs of 80 feet, or 352 feet in length
added to the old pier. We have heard this
work spoken of as of the most complete and
substantial character. Each crib is strength
ened by at least % cwt. of spikes. The north
pier is to be extended by six cribs of the same
length, making 1872 feet extension. These are
not put down yet. Mr.. Parker is also sub
contractor for extending the piers. We are
glad to see the appropriation for our harbor
being so judiciously expended.
