Our City Marshall would do great
service to our citizens and the ladies es-
pecially, if he would, at the least, occa
sionally, visit our Post Office during the
time of the distribution and delivery of
the evening mail. No one can form an
idea Of the rowdyism among our boys,
and even young men, until they witness
it themselves at the Post Office. Such
showing, chasing, pulling and hauling, to-
gethcr with the most lewd and pr diane
expressions. can hardly be exceeded any
where while the Post Master is entire
ly unable to attend to anything but his
most pressing duties, during that time,
when the Office is crowded with anxious
applicants, for correspondences and
news.

The musical and theatrical entertain
ment at Turner Hall on last Friday for
the benefit Of the Episcopal Church was
the most pleasing and successful of any
we ha yet witnessed in this City.
The ladies sang beautifully, every one
Of them; the Tableaux were splendidly
executed, the recitation by Mr.. Alan was
almost perfec.. The scene from W;Iow
Bedot was never played BY the widow in
better style anywhere, and the Charade
was performed by all the actors IN a style
that would have obtained the highest
praise in any of the best theatres of this
country even the childrens songs were
beautifully executed and encored, and
very deservedly so everything produced,
earned the most enthusiastic praise and
although the entertainment offered by
the Jones Library Association is of an en-
tirely different character and more artistic
skill, we shall be we'll satisfied if its efforts
will be crowned with an equally happy
success

for skating was offered to its votaries
last Friday aud Saturday, on the lake

out again safely we hope the cold bath
did him good, in making him more care
full hereafter. The plentiful snow. on
