THE PRESBYTERIAN FE5TlTAL.-LAst
evening according to announcement the
Festival and Fair Of the congregation OF
the Fourth Street United Presbyterian
Church transpired in their now edihce.
The room was tastefully decorated in
the usual style. At an early hour the
people began their attendance and at
s O'Clock the room was we'll filled.
The majority of those that attended
however did not remain long, but made
the circuit of the apartment, partook OF
the refreshments and then departed,
making room for more. The most brill
liant feature of the entertainment, after
the eyes of the ladies, whose presence
contributed SO much to the pleasure OF
the evening, was the new apparatus for
furnishing Highland ventilation. Every
one admired the efficacy of the new
method. The managers were so we'll
pleased with the patronage and profit
oflast night that they have determined
to continue the Fair through this even
ing. All who did not have an opportu~
nifty to attend, will do so tonight.

THE UNION BAPTIST IC.NIC.-On
Saturday the grand Picnic Of the sea-
sou takes place at Cressaps's grove.

in the city have united in max.
ing great preparations for a grand
time at the grounds upon that
day. The large and convenient steam
er st. Marys has been engaged to
convey the excursionists from the
wharf to the grove. The ride itself will
be one of the pleasantest features of the
day, and well worth the price OF the
tickets. TIE object of the excursion is
to increase the Sunday School fund, so
that every one may feel that they assist
in worthy cause by attending.

THE PENITENTIARY DELIVERY We
made brief mention on Saturday morn
ing of the escape of seven convicts
from the Penitentiary last Saturday
night. Tho following particulars ofthe
affair were received yesterday:
About 10 o'clock on Saturday night
last, the prisoners OF the State Peniten-
tiary, made another raid. The first in
dication Of it in Moundsville, was q
volley of shots being heard in that di-
rection. 1t appears that large sewer
which runs under the building is now
in the course of construction, and this
offered a fine chance for them to get
their liberty. One man succeeded in
procuring in some unknown way an
auger, with which he bored an open
ing through the Oaken floor of
his cell, down into the open sewer. The
partitions of six adjoining cells were
served in the same manner, through
which the same number escaped to the
main opening to freedom. Bill Starr,
who has the reputation of being the
ugliest negro in the State, was outside
ofthe "ring" and had to cut his own
way out without the co. operation of the
others. Myers, the ringleader of the
raid not long since, is one of the party.
Great efforts have been made to cap
ture these freebooters, but without sue
cess.

"PRo Bono CAN1No"-1fdd Dogs
Danger from Hydr0phObiG During the
Height Of 'Ssntnser.-The following was
handed us yesterday for publication:
Police regulations for muzzling or
combining dogs during the height of the
summer are founded upon an old super
stition long Since exploded. Dogs GER
tainly do not suffer from the disease
known as rabies more frequently in
these months than in any other-rather
less' January gives about the highest
average. Rabies has nothing to do with
thirst; dogs have been purposely and
cruelty killed by refusing them water,
to try the experiment, but haYe not
been seized with rabies, which is
specific disease, as to the origin or
which we have only negative facts. 1t
prevails at all seasons of the year, In
all climates and countries. 1t is more
common in northern than in southern
regions, and in northern Europe than
In any other part of the world.
1t Is very rare in the Southern
States OF America; less so in Canada
and New England. In the West Indies
where the climate is hot and dogs very
abundant, rabies is very seldom seen,
II dogs are to be muZZled or confined
they ought to be muzzled or confined
all the year round. We should be the
last to object to a general measure OF
precantiOn. But 1t is simply absurd to
choose that time for muZZllng dogs
when they suffer most from thirst, and
when they are by no means more dan
gerous than during the rest ofthe year
THE ORPHANS FEsTIVAL.-Last even
ing closed the Fair and Festival at
Washington Hall. The attendance was
good, though not quite so full as on the
previous night. The purchasable ar
ticies had very materially diminished,
though the supply OF strawberries and
cream was still abundant. The Fair
has been decidedly success, and the
orphans may we'll congratulate them
selves on having such benefactors to
look after their welfare. Great credit
is due to the ladies especially, for their
! untiring efforts in the cause. Indeed
their presence was absolutely indispen-
sable. To stand behind the tables and
wait upon customers for several hours
in an evening, requires no little pa
thence and enthusiasm. Let the ladies
therefore receive their due. The profits
resulting from the sales during the
three evenings have been fully up to
the standard of previous years, and the
whole affair one of great sue cess in
every way.
