ployee in Dickcy's Stone-quarry. named
Bowers, was severely injured on saturday
last, by the falling of a bank of dirt and
gravel on his person. A leg and arm it is
said was broken. A physician was called
and the sufferer rendered as comfortable
as possible under the circumstances.
The Abs. of the Fifth Ward are having Il
lively time over their candidates tor Coun-
ell. They threw of on BUTTS in their
nominating meeting, held in that Ward,
and BUTTS butted square against the ticket,
This produced a re-Jutter that brought both
candidates to their knees. and will, but a
new man on the track. But, the Demo-
Gratis don't care it 5 none Of their funeral.
BAL MAsQUE.-The Bal Masque at Turn
ers' Opera House, this evening, under the
auspices of the Hebrew Brethren, will be
par excellence, the Ball of the season. sur
passing all Others in point of magnifcence
and variety of costume. Added to the
beauty and variety of costumes, will he the
effect of the light shed from the numerous
gas jets upon the finely finished dome,
walls, and scenery of the Opera House, pro-
ducing such a picture as may never be
seen again. That there will be hundreds
there, aside from the Masquers, to witness
it, who can doubt.

brated troupe are advertised fortwo night,
in Dayton, opening at the Opera House, to-
morrow Tuesday evening 26th inst, o
this troupe the Buffalo On. y Cowie,
speaks as follows:
This newly organized troupe of min
stTels appeared at st. James Hall last eve
ming before a very large audience, among
whom might have been seen many of ouI
prominent citizens. The troupe is
decidedly good one, and the performance,
was pleasing throughout, The music wa
fine the singing was excellent; the clio!
dancing the best we ever saw and tn
burlesques ludicrously funny. The troupe
appears for the last time this evening, witt
"A change of programme. Ofcourse the hal
will be crowded again."
BURGLARY-A daring burglary is re-
ported to have been committed on Satur
day night last, or rather, we should say
Sunday morning about tire, az auro'cloyk
by which Mr.. Thomas II. ellis, OF this city
and members of his family, lost about on
thousand dollars worth of silver ware ant
clothing. 1t appears that the burglar
passed down through the front cellar way
and thence up into the kitchen and dinin!
room and other apartments, from whicl
they carried off their plumber. Mr.. ellis
we understand, offers one hundred dollar
reward for information that will lead Il
the detection of the thieves.
.s ADVERTIsING.-A shrewd business MAJ
once advertised a trining article in a man
mer that would scarcely prove
, tive. His neighbOrs expressed their regre
at his folly, but he appeared c%ontented
Though his gross sales of the article did
not cover the cost of his advertising, he at
tracted a new class OF people to his store
and his shrewdness paid him in a very shor
time, for new eyes saw what he had TO Offer
in addition to the speciality advertised, and
new purses came under contribution to
him.
