the street, because there is no punishment
provided for the misdeuneanor. Imprison-
ment over night is the very thing that the
intoxicated or stupid rereller wants after
the first stages of his spree have been
passed. Filming is virtually a dead letter
i'll the law, because even when the habitII-
al drlInkard or marauder has the money to
pay the sum assesSed-which he seldom
has-the penalty is so light that it neither
answers the direct purpose of punishment
or the better but more indirect one of a
preventive of future excessive liba-
tions.
The one thing OF which we are in need is,
work-house system. Of course this
could only be secured in a town of this
size in modified form: but even then it
would be one of the most beneficial regrl-
lations which could be put into effect. If
the breaker OF the law were compelled, in
case he had not money to pay his fine, TO
work upon the streets or roads, as is the
case in many OF our cities, the exhibitions
of drunkenness upon oi.r streets would
become soon less in number. The Town
Council have power to pass an ordinance
TO the above effect. and the subject is at
least worthy OF serious consideration in
that body.

"The glorious anniversary of our Ma
tional Indedendence" was observed in
this place, according to common report,
by Indulgence in the sOmnOlent feeling
produced by the warm weather preceding
the great holiday, and by occasional
awakenings, on the part of the older pop
ulation, caused by the bursting of a crack
ker OIL the snap of torpedo, that gave
evidence of the more active enjoyment OF
Young America. The old and the mid
| dle-aged slept, in short, anu the young,
| assisted by all the agencies that modern
| science and ingenuity can invent, made
hideous noises all day long.
| sNor yet at eve their notes suspended
Nor vet when eventde was ended"
| Many of our towns-peOple went to
Cleveland or Chardon or Ashtabula,
where they could participate in some OF
the many gayities that those towns pre-
sented. The few people who remained in
/ town undoubtedly were as happy as those
who wandered elsewhere. At least the
sthome bodies' kept dry-that is, from the
rain-while most of the pleasure-seekers
at pic-nics and excursions came home
with wet clothes, sadly streaked and
striped and spotted with mud limp and
lank and loose with rain.
i The interest taken in our National HOli-
dag is every year growing beautifully less
and in half score years more, at the rate
and in the direction of the present retro
gression, the day will be celebrated onl!
by universal slumber.

The location OF the schooner Jesse An

by the officers of the tug W. A. Moore,
on the upward passage from Buffalo to

Long Point Cut, distant u miles. in 50 feet
of water, She was grain laden.
Arrests of officers for the cruel treat
ment oftheir men on board ship have been
frequent of late, and in one or two in
stances they have been followed by pen
atty. In emergencies instant obedience
to the orders of the mate is necessary
such as to take in sail in sudden squall,
or to cut away the rigging or spars, or 60
aloft on duty, when the mate may enforce
obedience by positive force. But the force
is justified only as Il means of compelling
the performance of duty admitting OF no
delay.
Frank Hackett discovered, few days
since, sunken scOW laden with stone,

miles from shore. Two or three vessels
found this Scow last year much to their
regret. and as a warning to vessels Mr..
Hackett has located an anchor buoy at the
place. 1t will be necessary, however, for
deeply laden vessels, when passing that

The ennui of the day after the Fourth
was broken by the eniivening sight of a
fAt, in which one Sinclair was the lead
ing spirit. The scene OF the affray was
the meat market of one Hotchkiss
who, with his friend-Douglass-
Sinclair in causing the excitement. A
few blows were exchanged and two of the
cOmbatants rolled in the mud, locked in
each others embrace, after which the en-
tertainment was brought to close and
the interested pectators went their
several ways. During the entire perfor-
nance the crowd in attendance MAIN
tanned good order and paid the strictest
attention to the leading disputants that
could possibly have been shown. The
vIgilant and ever watchful police were
not present TO interrupt the amusement
and it was not until all was over that the
chief sufferer in the melee was taken 10 the
office of the J.P whence, after awaiting his
honor for an hour or more, he was allowed
to depart in peace.

sit is very strange, but is nevertheless
true, that it is very seldom we hear of an
inyentress. A lady in Chicago has recent
ly invented an article very much needed
for ladies use called Madam Dewey's In
visible Dress Elevator, which makes it an
easy matter at the option of the wearer to
change in an instant, a long dress into Il
short street costume with an overskrt: !:
and as quickly, when entering house Or
church, drop it to full length without be-
ing observed. 1t is used for both long and
short dresses, and is very useful at a

will devote their time to the business, and

tory, very desirable terms and a splendid

is made soon. Address with reference

The expense in keeping on the road a
show like that which Phineas T. Barnum
has organized can only be met by enOr-
nous receipts; and these in turn must de-
pend on grand aggregate of popular ia
yor that can be secured only i'll a ma%ni-
tude of attractions. For more than quar-
ter of century Barnum has held the po-
sition of king among showmen. His en-
terprise, vigorous in those elements of
character that discourage failures, and
comprehensive in an unlimited knowledge
has driven his rivals to full use of their
resources in order that they may not be
left behind in the race for public praise.
Mr.. Barnum's genius is of that restless
kind which is always searching and al
ways grasping at those features which
will amuse anu instruct the people. The
SO increased by an unrestricted eXpendi-
ture of means that it stands far above the
large aggregate of curiosities which he
had last year. For further evidence of
