pointed by the Common Council and Board

tions in the several wards, and especially la
the Seventh ward, found nn'sanc-s Of til,
most horrible aud iifc-i stroving character,
the mere sight Of which wonid bewider the
beholder and make him stand ayhast In un-
utterable amazcmcnt. at an tIgr,nt viola

THE TEMPERANCE EXCURSION TO GLY-
NoSr.-The excursion OF Equal No. Tribe
of Jonadab to Glymont on Monday was an
occasion of great enjoyment to all who par
ticipatcd, and was without doubt one OF the
most successful that has occurred this sea-
son. The management OF the Affair had but
,, one or two causes for regret which were Of
! such a character as to merit public notice.
The first Of these was the very mean action
on the part Of some Of the young gentlemen
(who, while not being temperance men
n themselves, had been invited to participated
h in carrying on the boat In a surrcptitlous
manner bottles Of liquor, whercwith they res
|. galed themselves despite the circumstances
/ OF the committee Of arrangements. Another
l. was the fact that the bar-kceper Of the boat
G (thc Wawaset) silly retailed "whisky and
soda" TO the same gentry alluded to above
notwithstanding the fact that 1t was ex
pressly provided In the contract Of the com.
!. mittee that "the bar was to be closed" The
d non-accommodating spirit Of those in charge
\, of the boat Is also worthy of mention. Or
| mr. n " n RI n hp At m n
Is was hauled out into the stream so that mont
pr could go on board A lady and little girl
being taken severely Ill II was advised tina
rs they be carried on the boat SO that modica
IN assistance could be rendered them. The
I. officers Of the boat being waited on by the
!, committee, their request was inhumanly re
q fused, as "thc men on board wanted rest au(
D. must not be disturbed" Let such evils NJ
n the two last named be corrected or the pat
/ ronagc of the public be withheld.
