VISIT TO TuR ALMsHousE.-On Saturday
afternoon a number OF gentlemen among HON
were several members OF the Councils, Waited
the almsheuse. The visit was a surprise, but
everything was found in as good condition as
could be expected under the limited facilities
and means at the command of the superintcnd
ent, Mr.. Jos. ). Martin. The parlors and
dining rooms need refurnishing, and the heat
ing apparatus in want of rcconstructing, as
well as the ranges for culinary purposes. a
desire was expressed that the authorities
would at once appropriate sufficient means to
put the establishment In q comfortable condi-
tion, and render the inmates as happy as cir
cumstanccs can possibly admit. The visitors
were particularly pleased with the matron,
Mrs. Martin, who has the love md confidence
Of the inmates, and occupies her entire time
In administering to their welfare.

people should forget the quarrel and put forth
efforts "to restore peace and good feeling. Rim

"The reconciling grave
swallows distinction first that made us foes,
That alInlike lie down in peace together
"iIc'o Turks no treason, here no envy swells
Here grow no damned grudgcs here arc no
storms,
No noise but silence and eternal sleep"
The ARGUS condemns everything, by act

keep alive the family quarrel, and ALLEVIATE
the people Of our own country. "Let US
