New York is threatened with ju-
bilee, which is to be bigger than the re-
cent hubbub in the direct proportion that
New York bears to Boston. The press
of that city are sorrowful, but resigned.
They say if the jubilee must come, let
it come. All they ask is that the NAM
moth building shall be erected as far
from the heart of the city as possible.
As leaders of the orchestra, they men
ton the names Of Maretzek, Dodworth,
Bsrnum, Bateman, Grau, Fisk, jun, Jar
rett and Palmer. The only reason given
for this second infection is that New
York can't stand the Boston Dragging,
and is determined not to be eclipsed in
trade, size or folly by any thing on this
continent.

satisfied, now, that there is no such fun
as making cider, except drinking it.
Yesterday we took a ride out to VIM. S.

cider. We long ago learned how to
drink it. Mr.. Goshorn has provided an
immense press, capable of squeezing

FIVE or thirty bushels of crab
apples at once, and q mill that

were an immense apple, and beautiful

waist, was trying to squeeze us to a
jelly, while we gently sang, - little

The WAR OF THE FACTIoNs.-Charles
Lever says an Irishman is never at
peace except he is fighting, and the
number of factions in the eight little
ISLE" each one having a different and
conflicting interest, gives them ample
opportunity to indulge in the national
game of shillaleigh. But when they
leave their beautiful land and cross the
briny deep, they are too apt to bring
their pride of faction and individual
aud neighborhood dislikes to this coun-
try with them, and when they break
out, a row is the consequence. Because
Mrs. O'Keefe aud Hannah Slater came,
one from Tipperary and the other from
Cork, they have been fighting. Talking
over the advantages of their different
sections has raised deep animosity be-
tween them, and night before last Mrs.
O'Keefe was taken before Squire Gle
han, and held TO bond in the sum of
S25 for her good behavior for three
months. But when did paper bond
stop a woman's tongue' Surely not in
this instance, nor their fists either, for
they had real jolly, comfortable fight
Yesterday, that will end IN both parties
being again fined by the justice.

A DRUNKEN WoMAN.-Yesterday af-
ternoon woman not over twenty-five
years of age was crossing the stone
bridge. She was in beastly state Of
into1ication, and as she swayed from
side TO side on the narrow walk, she
missed her footing and pitched heels
over head into the street, landing on
the broad of her back in the middle OF
the street railroad. Twas a sad sight
to see one of those we are taught to
consider as the connecting link between
man and the angels thus transformed
into a brute.
