answering With evident pleasure the
numerous questions with which he was
piled by the newspaper men. AT the end
Of the corridor opposite the front door OF
the prison, the turnkey raped with his
key upon an iron door, which opens
into narrow apartment upon either aide
OF which arc located the cells Of the
male prisoners. Immediately colored
man CAME out Of one OF the cells to the

The turnkey handed him a key, which

cells, the colored man returned to the
door and handed back the key; the turn

The MAY CoRONATION.-We have
read the programme of the May fes-
tivities to be conducted on the 10th
under the auspices of the Ladies
Fund Society at Franklin Hall. Know
ing the energy and refund taste of the
Ladies who have undertaken it, we
know also that our advice is superfu-
Gus. yet We give it: Let young men
and maidens, old men and children
and every one who delights in beauti-
full innocence and harmless gaiety,
crowd the hall under penalty of re-
GREETING it for the rest of the year.
Flowers and fairies and music fill
the thoughts which spontaneously arise
at this season, and we know at least one
little fairy included in the arrange
ments who would grace the court OF
Queen Titania herself. Who will not
be there? We know of one old bach
elor who will and enjoy it as keenly as
if he were just sixteen.

DURING our recent trip to the cOun-
try we spent night with one of our
old friends. We roomed with two
young men who had worked hard all
day following the pillow. Whilst we
were turning from side to side in pain,
those young men were enjoying tired
natures sweet restorer, balmy sleep,
to the full extent. We envied them
not that we had any desire to debar
them from rest, but heartily wished
we could be in a condition to sleep as
soundly and awake refreshed and feel
as bouyant as they. Let others hoard
up riches, but give us health and free
dom from pain.

BURaLARY.-On Friday night of
last week the residence of Mr.. E. S.
Bringhurst, on Madison street, was
entered by burglars and two valu-
able watches, one gold, the other sill
yer, stolen. It is supposed an en-
trance was effected through window,
the party or parties engaged evidently
being well up to the business, as the
work was accomplished without dis
turbing any of the inmates of the
house. An old pocket book, also taken
from the house, was found next morn
ing in the lot back of the house. Be-
yond this no trace of the guilty party
has been discovered.
