Good Beer at last.

Ringwald & Co. have our thanks
for the present Of a half dozen bot
ties of f1rst-class lager beer, which
they are manufacturing at their
brewery on ella street. This beer
is pronounced by Judges to be
equal to any made anywhere. 1t
has fine body and is rich, refresh
ing and wholesome. They also
make ale aud porter. They are
entitled TO a liberal patronage for
getting up so excellent an article,
for be il known that malt liquors
are for more innocent as a beve-
rage than distilled spirits.

WE are requested to state that
the reason that the Mutual Ad-
miration Society" did not hold
their regular meeting for the
election of officers, last Sunday
evening, was that there are only
two members in town now, and
while they might constitute
themselves Chairman and Secre-
tary, there would be none to
make, second and carry motions.
Therefore the meeting stands
postponed to POGO tempo. We
have been unanimously proposed
for membership, at the request of
the ladies, but we shrewdly sus-
pect that for this pleasant notice
we will be unanimously black
balled. Such is the fate Of Gent
us, coupled with personal atrac-
tions.

a GREATPANTTNG lost.

Dubufe's great painting, the "PrOdi-
gal Son" was recently burned to- ashes
in the fire at MelOdeOn Hail., Cincinnati.
The Cincinnati Gazette, in commenting
on the disaster, says: This work was
first placed on exhibition in this city,
and here it met its fateI Only three
years ago, at the beginning of the expo
sition in 1873, Mr.. II. w. Derby brought
it here and set it up in MelOdeon Hall.
The venture was not encouraging. The
art gallery at the exposition, and the alb
sorbing interest of that exhibition was
unfaYorable to the unknown painting,
and it was removed to Indianapolis,
where it was exhibited with great success,
Since that it has been seen by hundreds
of thousands of people, and hiss received
the most unqualified praise from all
classes of critics and connoisseurs. Its
most notable success was in Chicago,
where in February, 1874, it was visited
by forty thousand people. In Septem-
Der, 1874, it was exhibited again twenty
eight days to fifty thousand visitors, the
total receipts for that time being S12, 247.
In Boston 1t was almost as popular. In
Buffalo fifteen thousand people visited 1t
in one day. II is probably the best
known painting in the country. 1t was
enormous in size, being twenty feet high
and forty FIVE feet in length, 1t is the
work Of EdOuard Dubufe, sonot Claude III.
Dubufe. The artist was the pupil of his
father and Of Paul Delaroche. He re-
oeived commission for his work from a
French gentleman in Paris 1t was COM
Melted in 1867. In 1872, Mr., Derby, who
il a well known collector Of paintings,
purchased this one for about $50, zoo.
He estimates its commercial value at
from s1OO, 900 to $4,000. 1t was in
sured in this city for $4,000.
Mr.. Derby still has small copy, and
the artist is living, but it is not probable
that its reproduction win ever be at
tempted. The inspiration that guided
bis brush cannot be recalled at will,
