During the commencement exercises
of Gen. Lees Washington College, at Lex
ington, Va, the Rev. X. A. Holland dehv'
cred An address before tho literary societies

there is nothing intrinsically dignifed in la
Dor as some people pretend to believe. de

THR PnLsBURY CAUCUS TIoKE1.-The result
OF the election Of CITY officers on Tuesday
night excited considerable surprise, especially
in view Of the fact that some Of the Aldermen
who were supposed to be ardent adherents of
the Mackey faction voted the Pillsbury caucus
ticket straight through.
This may be explained. The Mayor earn
estly desired the election of his stepson, Jos.
a. jerks. as City Inspector. To obtain this a
number OF promises in the shape of Offices had
to be thrown into the hungry maws Of the Al
dermen who were opposed to his faction or
uncertain" With this end in view, the
Mayor and his two or three advisers set to work
and promised the Office of Coroner to J. P.
Howard. son Of Alderman Howard, colored;
Clerkship OF City Court to T. d. Small, colored.
son Of Alderman Small; Portwardenshlp to J.
O. Holloway, colo1ed son of Alderman Hollo-
way; City Attorneyship to D. T. Corban, friend
Of Alderman Cunningham; Flour Inspectorship
to M. Caulfeld, friend of Alderman Greene;
Assessorship to P. j. CooRan, friend OF Alder
man Collins, il the several Aldermen mem
toned would vote for Jos. 81. jerks. They
bolted the bait and the caucus ticket whole.
The bottom rail is on top The Mackeyites
will have to content themselves by rallying
around d. Il. Corbin.

A NEW THEATRE.-On T 1esday night last the
Freundschaftsbund held their regular monthly
meeting, and, we learn, took final action in re.
gard to the building OF a new hall.
As we learn, the reports OF the committees
in reference to the matter were heard, and it
was then decided to purchase the lot at the
southwest corner of Meeting and George
streets, on which the society propose to build
at an early day a large and handsome three
story brick building, fifty by one hundred feet,
fronting on Meeting street. The frst floor
will be fitted up for the social uses of the mem
bers Of the club. The second story will be 40
arranged that theatrical and operate perform
ances can be conducted in it. This hall will be
larger than the Hibernian Hall, and will have a
commodious stage, with all fixtures necessary
for performers and tor placing the pieces on
the stage to the best advantage. The lot will
cost $500, and the building, when completed,
probably $25, 900.
1t is with the greatest pleasure we announce
the above. and we sincerely trust that the
building will be commenced at an early day.
Something Of the kind has been long needed.
and 1t will be source OF qualification to all
classes to know that there is fine prospect Of
the want being supplied very soon.
