THE ZouAyEs AT WELDAY'S HALL--ihe en-
e. .tertainment given last night at Weidays hAA'
NV the /. Children nf the Republic or I foung zou-
aves. uuderfhe direction Of Colonel foung ana
Mrs. +. L Young, was really an entertaining
performance. These young Zouaves" are all
children of soldiers who died in the service.
who have beeu gathered together by Colonel
Young and his estimable lady, from the asy-
INNS and poor-houses, to which their poverty
had consigned them, and by them educated and
trained
Mrs. Young. with her husband. Colonel Young,
were the founders of the New York State Voiun-
,taer Institute. for the education, training, ana
support of the orphan children of deceased SOL
.diers: and have done a noble work In tine care
and education of over five hundred OF these
"Children of the Republic" The object OF tnese
performances is TO raise funds to continue the
work of caring and providing for these chiidren'
and every charitably disposed man or woman
in the community should encourage these
exhibitions
In addition to their claim upon the char
;itable sympathy of the public, the enter
'tainment is really worth far more than the
price of admission The precision Of drill, both
in the evolutions Of the soldier and the manuel
.of arms: the remarkable drumming; theexcel-
lent singing, and the elocutionary efforts OF
.aLittle Charlie are all wonderful perterman-
ices for such mere children-the oldest being ff-
teen years of age and the youngest under six
years.
We ask our oitizens to give their entertain
ment to-nlRht-Sx e6p esday-a full, cordialsup-
port. Let the Hall be flled, and let these or
phan children see that you sympathize with
them in their efforts TO make living Tor
themselves.

Besten wool Msrk.t.

The Advertiser. of Friday, says the recsipts of
the week have been 275S bales, against 33l5
bales for the corresponding week of last year.
We have to chronicle another week of active
trade, and notwithstanding the large sales of
previous weeks and the fact that manufacturers
generally laid in quite liberal supplies, the ap-
prehension of light stocks and consequent
higher rates has led to large purchases, and the
pounds Of domestic feece, and l.O6s bales OF
foreign wool. There has been q good inquiry
for all grades but the sales are largely Of pulled
woods and higher grades of fine fleece and
secured. There is no less demand for coarse
and medium fleece but in the absence Of de-
sirable lots the sales have been light, and man
ufacturers have been compelled to substitute
supers which are consequently firmly held and
active. Combing and delaine woods continue
to be eagerly inquired for, and both fleece and
pulled are held At higher rates. There is rather
more call for extra pulled, and the best grades
of well known pullers have brought higher
prices while the ill-assorted lots are more read
lily taken at the rates current a fortnight ago
The stock Of choice fleece that will grade Xxx
and above is much reduced, and those manu-
facturers who are compelled to use these woods
have purchased somewhat in excess Of imme-
diate wants. Secured fleece has been In good
demand and the sales of this description have
been large.

lowing items from the Cambridge Times of last

"horps" from anything yet attempted. The
unparalleled feat Of filling the positions Of pas
senger. driver and "critter," at one and the
same time, is readily and easily accomplished,
call by slight turn Of the wrist" We had the
pleasure of riding it last Tuesday, and although
1t was "coltish " in the hands of strangers, we
rather like it. and would not object to taking a
lease on one of these wonderful machines for
the development of our muscle.
The Baptist revival in this place. in charge Of
Rev. Mr.. Churchill, is growing in interest. The
pastor in charge rs now assisted by Rev. Mr.
Washington of the GAINESVILLE First Baptist
Church, who preached an excellent sermon on
Tuesday evening and will remain here for sew
eral days. Twelve have been converted and re-
ceived for baptism; two by letter and one on
experience. The baptismal rites are expected
to be performed next Sabbath.
PRoBATE-Judge johnson issued eighteen
marriage licenses during the month Of Febru-
ary. OF the parties, one male and two females
were minors.
One will was admitted to probate. Two adj
ministrators and one guardian were appoited.
No other business was transacted.

Purleyn, Harris's Hermes" browns
Grammar of English Grammar, ETC.,
for conflicting views.
4. "What is the sound of the vewels
in the first syllables of the following
names: Co!fdx, Hol6rook, Colby, Fdi-
staff, Hdlstedd ?"
The sounds are those of the vowels in
old and all.
S. "Should ed in blessed, aged, etc., be
pronounced as separate syllable. when
these words are used as adjectives ?"
"Agcd" should always be pronounced
q jed, except in the compound f,1Ll-dged
(ajd). The words beloved, blessed, cursed,
and leof ned have ed sounded as a sepa-
rate syllable when used as adjectives.-
The clerical practice of sounding ed as
separate syllable in uerbs, except when
preceded by a vowel, when reading the
Bible or Prayer-beok, has so far gone
out of use that it now savors of affecta-
tion or points to an old-fashioned edaca-
ton.
6. "Is it allowable to contract the
reading of dates and other numerical
expressions, thus calling 1849, eighteen
forty-nine;;" page 24l. "two forty-one"
or two hundred forty y-one," etc. ?"
As the so-called Arabic method Of
writing numbers is now so generally
understood, 1 see no reasonable objec-
ton that can be urged against the con-
fractions above referred to. l prefer
1.-TWO forty-one" to 1.-TWO hundred forty
one," the latter being so near the full
form that my ear calls for the omitted
''and"
z. "1s it ever correct to contract the
reading of authorizations, so as to make
it coincide with their printed form?"
Yes. We can read ABB, AM, DID,,
LID, as letters as well as artiun, bdc-
cotdurean, artiuna nadgistcr, dirinittdtis
doctor, Lc6,tni doctor, or their English
bachelor of arts, master of
arts, doctor of divinity, doctor of laws.
As a general rule, however, abrevia-
tions should not be read az written.-
Rev: should be read reverend, Pres,
etc.

Allegheny Cattle Market.
From the Pittsburgh papers of Tuesday,

CATTLE-The supply was not up to that OF last
week. only 737 against 800 but the market SEEM
ed to drag, and there was not that bouyancy
and activity which usually prevails when the
number on sale is SO small, The butchers, for
some cause or other, did not take hold very
freely. and although there was very fair at
tendance, they seemed to be very timfd and
hesitated more than usual-perhaps they
thought that by holding back they might be
able to do better. As already fntfmated, how.
ever, all kinds Of stock were held at full prices,
and both buyers and sellers knew that the mum.
Der on sale " as too small to expect any decline,
Notwithstanding, the market was q dull and
sluggish one. The great proportion of the stock
was from Chicago, and as general thing, about
up to the usual standard In regard to quality.
