an OM Toter-Peter Field is the Oldest
voter i'll Richmond, and perhaps the oldest
IN the State. He is one hundred and six
years old, and resides in Clay ward, and
always votes the Republican ticket. He
has witnessed the rise, progress and great
ness OF American institutions, and from an
experience of more than a hundred years.
he has become too wise in the great princi-
pies of liberty and the natural rights of
man, to neglect to vote the Republican
ticket.

STREET CARs.-We find something OF a
controversy growing up between the Times
and the Picayume on the question of street
cars for the aristocracy. The Times cites
with much commentator the Introduction
at New York of a car superior in accommo
dation and equipments to the ordinary
sort, but-charging double price. The
Pic takes issue on this point upon Demo-
cratic grounds. We shalt not take sides at
present, on the merits, as we expect that
an exception in limine will prevail. II we
are not mistaken the charters OF all oui
roads require them not to charge higher
fare than ave cents. In that case 1t wouie
he in vain to AZ the price at ten cents. III
aristocrats might pay it for grandeur, ou
the Democrats would ride in the same ca
for five.

The voting on the splendid parlor organ from
T.. Gruuewald, etween the friends of the Lou
isana Retreet and the Little Sisters OF the
Poor, has awakened much interest. On the
inmates of the former, who have been bereft
of reason, music will have soothing influence
and often still their shattered nerves, while to
the old and infirm under the care Of the good
Little Sisters, music will be most desirable
addition to the comforts which the limited
means of the Sisters have been unable to sup
ply. This organ can be seen at the Chimes
Table (the second table on the right-hand on
entering the hall) at st. Pstrick's Ladies' Fair
now in progress at Odd Fellows Hall, and MIS-
Waldo, under whose management this table il
conducted, will be at the hall daily from IL tt
o'clock, aud every evening, to show the in
strument. Those desiring tickets to sell out
aide can also obtain them from Mt Green, q
the Times Office, on Camp street. We commend
the subject to the friends of these asylums
both of which are deserving of every assist
ance and encouragement

that when the ladies come to the determine

The Hibernia Hall.

We think We can congratulate the ga
tbolics of New Orleans upon excellent |
prospects for the erection of new building |
in which they will all feel more or less In |
terested. There has never been recog-
nized central point in this city where Ca
tholic bodies would be expected to meet or
where their public entertainments would
take place. The projected Hibernia Hall,
of which our readers have already heard
through the daily press, is not probably
intended to be strictly Catholic, still Ca
tholicity is 30 intimately connected with
the Hibernian element that it will not be
hard to identify the two il most matters
connected with this building.
Mr.. Irwin has taken the first step to-
wards practical solution of question
40 long interesting our Catholic popu-
lation, and has bought the vacant site OF
the old Odd Fellows Hall, on Camp street,
with a view to a structure of the kind al
luded to, if desired by our Catholic popu-
lation. A location more appropriate to the
end in view can hardly be found in this
city. As the foundation of the former
building remains perfect, an important
portion of the contemplated work is al
ready accomplished.
This much being done, many gentlemen,
countrymen of Mr.. Irwin, have already
moved in the direction of concentrating the
scheme by erecting splendid building
upon the premises with the title of biber'
MIA Hall, or something similar. They pro-
pose forming joint stock company or as
ISOLATION, regularly chartered and organ
lied on such a basis as to ensure high!
= creditable result.
For our part we are satisfied that if tn
Hibernian Benevolent Association, in IT.
, seven existing branches and several new
, ones about to organize, should take hot'
of this enterprise, it's success is assured
!, We understand that the gentlemen wn
have taken the initial steps in this matter
o some of whom belong to the Hibernlans
q intend to press it strongly upon the atten
ton of that association.

CHURCH OF ST.. PETER AND PAUL.-To-day,
at 10 o'clock Mass, the Rev. Father William
Foley, who gave so much satisfaction to the
immense congregation which assembled on last
Sunday at the Church of st. John the Baptist
will deliver q sermon at st. Peter and Paufs
Church, Rev. Cornelius Moynihan, pastor. 10
those who admire eloquent pulpit oratory, we
rive the advice not to let this opportunity pass
as the reputation which prece led rather
Foley's advent among us, and which, as was
proved last Sunday, he is justly entitled to
was that of q most logical, and at the same
| time most pleasing preacher.
