| A Chelsea man, once on time before
tho running of horse-cars came to Boston
with his young wife to attend the opera.
The lady was so fascinated that she re-
| fused to leave until the final drop o. the
curtain. Then, to the CONSERVATION OF
both, it was found to be so late as to
raise serious doubt whether the 10
o'clock Chelsea ferry boat could be reach
ed and that was the last trip for the
night Yet they hurried down Hanover
street; only to find, as they feared, that
the boat had gone There was nothing
left for them to do but to foot it along
Commercial street to Charleston over
Chelsea bridge-a long, dreary walk, and
one which at the time had bad reputa
tion, by reason of some recent assaults
committed on belated pedestrians The
lady was greatly alarmed, and very I'M
willingly went forward. But, as they
were hurrying along, strange, savage
bull dog accosted them, much to the dis
gust and alarm of the lady, who bid him
abe off !" of which, however, he took no
notice, but,after smelling around, finally
made up his mind that they would an
swer his purpose, and that he would theirs,
and so deliberately trotted along after
them When they reached the long,
dreary Chelsea bridge, nothing induced
the lady to venture forward but
the presence of this strange dog. AS
they were nearing the center of the
bridge, slouchy man was discovered
ahead, leaning against the rail of the
bridge, who Immediately, on disco vering
the approaching party, began to move
forward toward them, TO the special con-
steration of the trembling woman. The
gentleman spoke in an undertone to the
dog, who seemed to understand the
position and to be master of it too and
left his place behind and took his place
in front; and, as they approached the
suspicious man, greeted him with a
savage growl and appeared ready for
spring The sight and sound of the dog
acted like charm on the man; and be
skunk away from the path and allowed
the party to go along unchallenged. The
trio reached home in safety; and it is
hardly necessary to say, the strange,
friendly dog was cordially welcomed
into the house and fed and lodged like a
prince of dogs, AS he had shown himself
to be. The next morning the dog took
his departure, without leaving his name
or residence, and was never afterwards
seen by the persons whom he had so
mysteriously and effectively befriended.

Congress was Lot in session., and there was
no other man except Senator Chandler there

could be done The Senator heard the story,
studied over the papers carefully: and re-

Fabulous tales have been told of the value of
their cargoes, but as yet no attempt has been
made to recover them, owing to the great ex-

recovering the sunken treasure. Half of the

The Concert.


The concert given by a number of ladies
and gentlemen OF this city last Friday even
ing for the benefit of Mr.. Ellington Pierce,
was one Of the best we have attended for
years. The Hall was pretty full, though not
crowded, and the net proceeds amounted
to $3.50 So
The ope. ing piece, = The Anvil Polka, y
was executed in a splendid manner by Mrs.
Wheeler, and Messrs. Montanye, Olker and
Rogers, followed by quartetue, 1.-THE
Knights Farewell" in which Messrs Powers,
Sinclair and Edwards sang well. Charley
Bells Mocking Bird limitations were well
done and loudly applauded. The trio, "Te
| sol, tie quest Anima," by Mrs. Ida Weyl, and
Messrs. Smith and Fish couldn't have been
rendered better, and the same may be said of
the song Ye Merry Birds" by Mrs. Capron !;
the tenor song by Mr.. Fish; the song,

I7Olker gave his Cornet solo in an able man

Smith and Fish was sung as they only can
sing it, and loudly encored. The song by Miss
Jennie Head, /" The Pilgrim Fathers" and
SC Waiting" by Mrs. Ida Weyl, were given in
an excellent manner. The trio, :" Life has
no Charms" by Mrs. Capron, and Messrs.
smith and Fish was one of the best things
on the programme, and received loud ap.
plause. Messrs. Montanye and Oiker's vio-
lin duet, and Charley Bells Either solo were
very fine. Mrs. Kate Wheeler presided at the
piano during the rendition of greater part
of the solos, and acquitted herself in manner
highly satisfactory to the vooalsts, and to
the audience. fra
We have not, for years, listened to finer or
sweeter singers than w. N. Smith and s. l..

Mr.. Smith sang several songs by request, as
did Mr.. Powers. and both were loudly ap.
plauded. The concert closed with a splendid
duet, The Fisherman" by Messrs. Smith
and Fish, and the audience went home well
pleased and of the opinion that it was the
best concert given In this city for years.
Mr.. Smith contemplates giving a concert in
this city in the course of few weeks, in
which he will be assisted by Mr.. Fish and
other singers of repute in Chicago. We pre-
dict for him good audience.
