The entertainment oiveo I

The entertainment given by the
IRVING LITERARY INSTITUTE on
Saturday evening WAS very credita-
Die affair. Thisis rot ouropinion only
but it WAS the universal expression
of the large audience present. The
members Of the Institute especially
the younger onee-are making good
progress in general knowledge, in
parliamentary rules and usages, and
in the art of public speaking.
The speech of the evening was
made by Hon. W. X. Alexander.
1t WAS mastery effort on the affir-
NATIVE side of the question, and won
fer it's author golden opinions tron
all sources. We only wish the old
man Tuten had been here. IL he ia

speeches made, especially that Of

R. B. Hayes Was privately sworr
in rs President of the United States
to which he never was elected
the White House OH Saturday even
ing. over twelve hours before Presi
dent Grants term had expired. In
his indecent haste to get possession
of the stslen Office, Hayes makes a
most pittiable figure of himself. 1t
will avail him nothing. An outrag-
ed nation NAV submit TO the infamy,
but the stamp of fraud is 50 in
delibly fixed upon his imbecile brow
that all the waters of the Mississippi
and Missouri combined, can never
wash it out. All the fine words Of a
labored inaugural-all the fair prom.
ises OF conservative administration
can never efface the fact that he is
simply a receiver of stolen goods.
