Market In Clay Ward.

TO the Editors Of the OiSpdtch:
l was pleased 10 notice in the proceedings
of the Board of Aldermen published In your
nsper Of Yesterday that the committee hay-
ING charge of the subject had reported IN
favor Of three locations for the market in
Clay Ward. Twas pleased w'th the location
recommended on Broad and laurel streets
because, in my opinion, it IS an admirable
one. Broad street. in the opinion of many,
is The only proper location for market in
that ward, because it Is not only very accss'
sible to the residents of that ward, but quite
convenient to many of the people OF the
southwestern part Of Jackson Ward and
those residing in the western part Of Monroe
Ward. A market, if located on Grace street
would damage greatly the many handsome
private residences on, that street, whereas II
located on Broad .treet (Which is one hun.
dred and eighteen feet wide) it would mol

The THEATRE-OLD CURIOSITY SnoP.-The
severity OF the weather last night kept many
people from the Theatre, but there were
enough braye.hearted ones who yentured
out to make an audience for Miss Putnam
above the average size. The management
displayed enterprise in having an additional
stove for the parquette, and will no doubt
be encouraged to further etfjrlS in that di.
rec:on, seeing how that was appreciated and
-patronized. Katie as the Marchioness and
Little Nell showed that she has improved a
great deal. She has lost nothing Of her gale
tv, and sue acls with more etfectivenessthan
ever before.
The piece was presented in way different
in many respects to what wea are accustomed
TO see. Most Of thealterations were improve
mcntS. Mr.. L. Ii. Burns as Dick SWiveller
was decidedly good, though he lacked tie
dash aud easy swing of Edwin Browne. Lit
tie Dot, who was one of the living features
of Mrs. Jarley's way-works exhibition, was
decided attraction, and was made to respond
to two encores by songs and dances. She i:
lively little creature, and commences life
upon the stage with bright prospects.
Asa whole the support given Katie is fair
The members of the company generally
satisfy the public, and no doubt with tempe
rate weather and larger audiences they viii
even display decided talent.
