Commemorative were in error yesterday
in relation to the money appropriated by the
Relief Committee to the late Jonathan Nor
gan. When the money was refused by him
unless he could take it Internationally it was
put into the hands of A. X. Shurtleff, ESQ
who used it for the purchase of clothing, food
and fuel for the old gentleman, and every cent
of it was faithfully applied to his comfort.
1t has also been stated that Mr.. M. was not
seen from Friday until he was discovered dead
on Monday. This is mistake. Mr.. George
H. knight is certain that Mr.. Morgan passed
through his store after dusk Saturday alter
noon, on bis way to his residence on Gross
street. Mr.. M. was in the habit of making &
short cut from Temple street through the
store of Mr. r, when op his way home. Ihi'
fact does away the suspicion that Mr.. Morgan
died on Friday night or Saturday.

CUMBERLAND BAR FRsTIvAL.-The festival
of the Cum berland Bar, given to Judge God
dard on his retirement from the Bench of the
Superior Court, occurred last night at the Fall
mouth Hotel. The time set for the dinner was
s P. NJ, but in respect to the "hoary nuisance
of the laws delays" the party came to table
at about 80 p. M The dinner was all that
Epicurus himself could have desired had he
been a member Of the Cumberland Bar. Oh
the feats of eating and drinking there per-
formed this deponent saith nausht. Suffice it
to say that all seemed to feel that point of
conscience was involved in their action. In
due course of time the Master of the Feast,
Hon. L. d. NJ. Sweat arose with his accus-
toned urbanity and dignity and proposed the
first toast of the evening, sour distinguished
Guest" The response of Judge Goddard was
happy and witty, and given in his best vein.
Then followed other sentiments and speeches
from judges Walton, Lane, Howard aud Wat
erman, and Messrs. Symonds, Reed, Anderson,
Mattocks and several others. The applause
was vigorous, rapturous and enthusiastic, such
as is usually given by the Cumberland Bar at
that hour of the evening. On the whole it was
very enjoyable occasion and will do much to
encourage and perpetuate the ''entente cor
dale which has always prevailed in the Bar.
