The ScHuTzENYEsT.-This jolly occasion, as
: they say on handbins, "drew another full
: house" yesterday. The grounds were thronged
with Germans, their families, guests, and citi-
-zens generally, and the mirth-provoking fun
continued until every wrinkle in every corpo-
rosity present was smoothed clean out. The
amount of lager punished was fearful, and yet
nota single specimen Of intoication was visi-
bile to the naked eye. The shooting was kept
up unremittingly, and three more prizes taken,
leaving six to be contested for to-day. The
creased pole was one Of the popular centres Of
attraction, but so far its oleagiuous periphery
has proved an effective blockade to the prizes
= on the summit. 8
An sorts Of races were improvised, and the
!. shouts of laughter with which the trials were
received made havoc among vest buttons and
= suspenders. The dancing was highly enjoyed
and enjoyable. The music was admirable and
inspiriting, and many an old couple, who had
years enough to be grand parents, "ripped

vehemence that was contagious.
The crowning scenes of the "Fest" WILL
occur to-day. Everybody and his wife are e1-
pected, and rare sport is anticipated.
In addition to the amusements, the
blind race for the bear will take
place, prizes will be awarded, the
new ssKing" will be installed with the usual
ceremonies, speeches will be made ad libisuns,
8 ongs sung, and the largest possible variety
given to the enjoyment.
