What He Thought of Mime. Cnrreno
SnUrpf.

From the Fort Wayne tIndanal Sentinel
After the concert was over, he quietly
took us aside, and gave vent as follows to
his pent-up feeling: II tell you. mister she
was slasber. Our GenDe couldn't hold
candle to her. When she first set down, she
looked kind wild, then with howl dug
her finger rails into them rough notes, and
shut 'em like lightning up into the thin ones.
Then she paused for reply, mister. She
then commenced at the right hand side,
went a rippin down and over fist till she
got clean down, maxim noise like thunder.
She then yanked handful out of the cen
ire. and planted them al the end, then wig
gled around with two fingers, grabbed up
another fsttul punched right and left, went
ripety-hopety- schotchy up and down, and l
tell you that ere palmer howled. She then
gave another snort, aud when she went she
busted in like mad. raised up off her chair,
stuffed three iingerstul there, caromed six
more in the corner gobbled up few more
tunes, and settled their hash in about
minute. After that she tackled it with her
lett hand alone. Between you and me,
mister. the man that owned that ere plan
ner went shiftin around on his chair as
though he had carpet tack under Linn.
Good night, mister

The Necessities OF the Poor.

Two informal meetings were held yester-
day by some we'll known citizens for the
avowed purpose of devising means to pro
vide for the excessively poor of this com
munity. Several propositions were made,
the principal one being to establish an
agency or depot where the unemployed
might make known their wants and state
what kind of employment they desire, in
order that people in the country might be
informed, thus bringing the idle and the
employer into communication. One gentle
man announced that he had an application
for a squad of wOodchoppers, and that he
had found the men but they were actually
unable to purchase axes. This matter was
quickly settled by member Of the commit
tee announcing that he would advance sutfi
Gent money to procure the tools. The axes
will be consigned to the planter, and not be
given to the men until they are on the
ground prepared to use them. One teacher,
several carpenters and some laborers have
already been provided for in the country by
this committee
Various propositions were made to relieve
the necessities of our poor, but as the COM
mittee was not as fully organized as was
desirable nearly everything was postponed
until tomorrow morning at ten o'clock,
when meeting will be held in the Office of
the Sun Mutual Insurance Company, corner
of Camp street and Commercial alley.
A committee on organization was ap-
pointed-Messrs. Harrod, Burwell, Harris,
Payne and Sage. The duties of this sub
committee will be to perfect the association
and to provide plan for operations. A
number of reliab gentlemen will be EN-
powered to solicit all kinds of aid, and
regular depot will be established, forming
an agency between those who wish la5orers
and the laborer.
Several letters have been received from
the country, rendering free use of land for
those who will till the SOIL Other com
are in the hands of the commit
tee from planters and farmers who wish to
hire hands.

Nayra Il Otfner's No. Ia Canal street

Celia Burleigh has made herself conspic-
GUS by saying that girls have right to use
j ack knives. OF course they have, and they
have right to do very many innocent
things without being talked about. Pussy
people who have failed in life appear to
have no other active motive than to com
ment on the lives of others. Thousands of
little ones have been made miserable by
taking upon themselves, under advice, the
behavior OF rheumatic exemplars. Children
are made to feel that everything they want
to do is improper, that everything which is
nice is naughty; they wish they were not
children until they are not, and then they
are often proper enough to wish they were
in the world to come. Let innocent young
persons alone, especially the girls.

Ways That Are Dark.

Ways that are dark-the ways leading to
the offices of the collector, surveyor and
United States marshal. in the Customhouse
This remark is made for no other purpose
than to see if little more light could not
be afforded in the passages leading to the
principal business offices of the Custom
house. To those who are in the habit of
cropping their way through this building
daily in search Of office the dread of danger
there occasionally, and on business of a
different nature, not liking to take any great
risks of breaking their necks, would go
through with much more confidence if more
light could be afforded.

CRESCENT CITY RAILROAD CoMPANY.-
The stockholders of this line of city railway,
running on Tchoupitoulas, Annunciation
and New Levee streets, held meeting
yesterday to consider it's affairs. 1t was
deemed best that there should be change
in the management for though the stock
commands fair consideration the advan-
tages the company possesses ought to in
crease its value. The presence IN New
Orleans of DR.. HUI. Kennedy, one of the
largest stockholders, was taken advantage
of and he was elected president.
This is a fortuitous circumstance for the
company. DR.. Kennedy has always COM
manded respect by his ability, personal
qualities and reluctance to assume public
prominence. His present position. in the
decline of life, is taken by him with the
same motive, and will equally rebound to
the benefit Of those he desires to serve.

The constant drain OF golc from Califcr-

be the reason, as it leads every one who

send it East for sale. At the beginning OF
