ner. Indeed, C street is fast assuming
the appearance of an old fashioned cor
duroy road, and the buses passing
along i, pitch and bob about like Dutch
galliots in n heavy sea. A little more
expense laid out would fill in between
those crossings, leaving the street
planked smooth from one end TO the
other, and be quite an improvement on
the corduroy style.
MArrxEEs.-The matinee at Piper's
Opera Rouse, last Saturday afternoon,
was very fully attended by q well

and the one previous, both buses went
crowded, in fact all could not ride at a
time, but had to wait until the next
bus. Doug. and Fred, the two drivers,
stir up their teams pretty lively on such
occasions. Both understand their busi-
