Monday evening next Rev. Reedy and
his W. g. s., will cease to be known ir
Steubenville. 1t is going to follow the
example of the Arab, by folding its
tent and silently stealing away" The
place that knew Mr.. Reedy and his girls
will know them no more. They are go.
ing to search for new fields for their ls-
bors, and new people for their patrons.
No doubt on that evening the Steuben-
vile youth will give them rousing
benefit, and tender sad, reluctant fare
we'll. They will linger as long IS pos
sible around the fair girls, snd quatf 3
glass OF lager 10 the health and prosper
lty of those about to depart. They will
wish them sbundsn. happiness and any
amount Of conquests in the new place in
which they pitch their tent, and that the
authorities may receive them with bet.

and the establishment will be conducted
after the manner Of those in the Smoky
City," There is one thing in favor
of this institution that Reedys estsb-
lishment did not enjoy. II is situated in
a part of the city where very little busi-
ness or travel takes place, snd the resi-
dents are not the most refined or psrticu-
lar of our citizens, and are not likely 10
create much cf a "howp' over any
little disturbance that happens to take
place. The boys can go there,
have their fun with the girls,
settle their little differences according
to the code lsii down by the "manly
art" and no one will likely have any
thing TO say, ard therefore the Mayor
will rot feel csllei upon 10 invoke the
strong arm Of the law to suppress IL.
The wife of a saloon keeper, who holds

from the effects OF the potstlons she i'm

Capt w II. Bradley, formerly Captain

manner are greatly missed by those who
have been in the habit Of spending their
leisure time in his company.
