age has proved true in the case Of Best
Chemical Saleratus being always full weight

Two young men were before the Recorder
yesterday for behaving badly at the Exchange
street Church on Sunday evening. We did
not learn what the Recorder did in the prem
ises, but hope he gave the fellows the full ex
tent of the law.
The slight snow yesterday got ont severa
handsome cutters and merrily going parties
There wasn't much snow, however, and the
weather was in melting mood, and so there
wasn't much diversion brought to this MUM
cipality by this mode of locomotion.
WE call attention to d well>written article
from the Cincinnati Gazette, to be found in
our Commercial Department this morning
on the cause of the present dulness in al
kinds of business. II touches the subject in
a manner that will impress itself on the mind
OF the reader as being very near true.
The principal topic Of conversation on our
streets yesterday was in regard to the Crosby
Opera House drawing. Of course every
holder Of a certificate expected to become
the holder of this valuable property. The
dispatches in this mornings GATE from Chi.
cago will be eagerly scanned. There The
lucky numbers are recorded. The owner Of
cert 6cate No. $500 awakes this morning
possessor Of the most valuable property il
the West. Is the holder of that number q
Keokukian? We hope so.
