Next Monday night this entertainment,
which has for the last two weeks furnished so
large and varied field for innocent amuss-
ment to the generous and fun loving people of
our city, will close. 1t has been very we'll
patronized as general thing, though we have
heard it remarked that a number of the moro
prominent members of the congregation have
made themselves conspicuous, thus far, by
their absence. This, however, is accounted for
on the hypothesis that these gentlemen have
been outstanding their resources for the purpose
of making the closing nights of the Fair all
the more exciting and enjoyable, hence those
who wish to have right royal time, to COM
pass their desires will only have to attend at
the now historic hall, corner Common the
DerbiGny Streets this Saturday evening or
Sunday and Monday nights. The friends of
the contestants for the several prizes should
bear in mind that the time for assisting those
in whom they are interested is limited. Some
of the contests will close tonight, while the
counting of votes in others has been fixed for
Sunday and Monday nighte.

OFFICIAL CHARrTY.-Ellen johnson went to
the Charity Cemmissioners' Office in Will
loughby street, Brooklyn, Saturday, with her
four small children. Their condition denoted
the worst degree of poverty. She said that
her husband had abandoned her, and that she
could not work and attend to the children too.
She asked for charity. Oue of the political
clerks showed her into cheerIess room, and
apparently forgot all about her. She remained
there four or five hours without anything to
eat Her children cried Piteously for food
She went to Judge Walshs court and asked to
might get something for her little ones to eat
She said that her youngest child was almost
dead, and the moaning cry of the babe con-
firmed her story. Judge Walsh gave a court
officer two dollars and sent after food for the
family. He then committed them to the iail
for three days. and sent an officer to look after

weeks getting votes for their respective organ

can flag at st. Joseph's Fair. Evenly m matched
in numbers, influence and the liberality of
their meubers, the contest is most exciting,
and the Returning Board (whic", unlike that
of our unfortunate State, has for it's motto

1HE N. o. MEDICAL AND SURGICAL JOURNAL
we are indebted to the publishers, Messrs.
Stevens and Seymour, Sc Common street. for
the May number of this valuable scientific BIZ
monthly, and commend it to the attention of
our medical friends. Two original commun;oa-
tions by DR.. Stanford E. Chaille, Professor of
Physiology and Pathological Anatomy in the
University of Louisiana, are especially worthy
OF the attention of the general reader. The
nrst treats of the "opium Eating Mania" and
OF the pretended cure of this Ienslaving habit
by sooalled specifics daily advertised by sordid
quaoks. The second treats of the influence of
climate and altitude in the diminution of CON-
sumption and of the Importance of an "Ameri-
can sanitarium" for tho treatment of said
disease. Asheville, in North Carolina, is speci-
ally indicated as the only place in America
possessing such An institution for the present,
and the doctor afffrms that it is admirably
situated for such q purpose. This number of
tne Journal closes the third volume of the new
SERIES We hope continued success will crown
the efforts of the publishers in making this the
Oest medical journal in the South.

such results cannot be attributed to chance
They must flow from the skillful management
OF the gentlemen in charge. It was to be ex-
pected from their we'll known character of
combined caution and shrewdness that doubt

avoided. Of course, some apparent loss of
business would result from this policy, but
that would naturally be moro than compepsa-

agement IN all legitimate business. In fact
Mr.. Henderson has not failed to impart to the

OF promptness, energy, and discretion which
have signalized his business history. Seconded
