Sympathy is agrcat com fort toinvaids. When

good trait in our humanity. 1t shows that we
are grateful for benefits received.

This evening the entire net proceeds of the
entertainment will be devoted TO the relief of

mind, and we can only hope that the hall will
contain larger audience than was ever before
assembled within its walls.

A FINE HoUsE.-The growth of Bramhall's
Hill within the past five years is surprising to
those who visit that pleasant part of the city
but seldom. The fine, broad streets show an
array of handsome houses and elegantly laid
cut grounds that cannot be excelled by many
cities in New England; and the past year has
added largely to the number. P. Lane, Esq,
we observe, has begun the erection of an ele-
CANT mansion of brick on Vaughan street, near
the grounds of Hon. j. B. Brown. 1t will be
of brick, two stories high, with hp-roof crown
ed by graceful iron balustrade. The main
house is to be about q by 80 feet, with wing
in the rear 16 by IS feet, and an ell IA by 20
feet. Two bay windows will front the street,
and on the south side a piazza leading to the
principal entrance. The interior arrangements
promise to be elegant as well as spacious and
convenient Everything necessary to the com
forts of home have apparently been introduc.
ed and when completed it will rank as a first
class house. The plans were furnished by Mr..
Fassett.

CRUELTY TO SCHoLAR.-In consequence
of the prevalent report that pupil in the
North School on Monday last bad been very
severely whipped and otherwise abused by
teacher majority of the committee on that
school met yesterday afternoon to investigate
toe case. The mother, Mrs. Porter, (the father
i, absent at work in Boston) % Atlantic street,
with neighDor, appeared to state the case in
behalf OF the pupil. She demanded the dismiss.
al OF the teacher and told her story. Miss
Lawrence, (the teacher charged) Misses Pen
neil, Scales and Boothby, teachers who saw
more or less of the transaction, and Mr.. Went
worth, Princical, also appeared. The investi-
CATION was quite thorough, occupying two
huurs and all that was said and done on the
occaion pretty thoroughly ventilated.
1t happened that the teacher requested the
pupil to stop few minutes after school, which
he not only refused to do, but kicked up such
row by scres ming, as to be heard in distant
parts of that large building. The child is but
five and half years old, aud had been to
school about four weeks-yet two of the teach
srs who were in the case, testified that they
were shocked at the profanity used by the
child. The broken slate, which was shown
dpou0 as having petA UGOkeu tOVef his head-it
was proved by two or three witnesses the lad
broke himself in his rage, by thrashng it on
the desk. The teacher, in order to preserve
any show of discipline, was obliged to detain
him, although he persisted that he would not
stay. In punishing him, he received some
slight discolor ations, although it was not clear
but that he infected most of them upon him.
self in his temper.
Without going into the particulars of all
that was said, it seemed is us to be ga pretty
large tempest in very small teapot" How it
struck the con- mittee may be inferred from the
reading of the following report, which was
unanimously adopted:
The CON mlttee, after full hearing, are sat
isfied that the pupil was obstinate and tubul-

the teacher, and deserved the punishment, and

he told Mr.. Wentworth that he did not appre-
mend any permanent injury and thought he
would cause the child to be sent to school the
next morning.
