prurient fancy. Men have been found to get
themselves up in imitation of the parties in
that affair; and woman assumes 10 personate
the wanton who played so prominent part in
if. The press to its credit, without a single ex-
ception-or at least with no exception unless it
be a paper or two which no man pretending to
decency will own to ever having read-was
earnest, even bitter, in denouncing the vile play
But it holds its place on the stage, and its
author has had the effrontery to publish de-
tense of it, on ground that he has merely car
ried into effect the proper function of the drama,
"to hold the mirror up to nature" 1t is a
grave question with me as 10 what is the duty
of the press in such cases am half inclined
to believe that the eloquent deuunciations of
this play attracted to it more than they repealed
from it. There are many to whom anything
beastly is attractive; and these criticisms were
enough TO assure them that in "Black Friday"
they would find beastliness to their hearts con-
tent. A. II. C.

conference committee on the difference between
the two branches concerning the bill relating TO

the house concur with the senate, with an
amendment. The adjustment is that sureties
must be required on second and subsequent
offences, but on first offences the requirement is
optional with the court Mr. Thompson kicked
against this, and Mr.. Loring replied, but the
house was too thin TO take vote
Conference committees are multiplying, the
speaker having appointed two this morning
one on the disagreement between the two
branches as to the bill to limit the term of ser.
vice of jurors, and the other on the bill fixing
the compensation of officers of courts. The
house non-concurred in all the senate amend
ments 10 the state police bill, save one, land
that on an immaterial point, and as the SEN
ate insisted, another committee of conference
was necessitated. However, as the senate de-
cided to recede from its Inconvenience in the
house amendments to the bill to fix the com
pensation of courts, one of the house conference
committees is rendered needless.
The committee on banks and banking made

disapproyed by the legislature.

frightful scene was transpiring in the bow

their destructive proceeding.
