vantages for perfect drainage of our city,
you are aware that at the time We came
into Office the streets of the city we're in bad
condition and generally out of repair, max
ing it absolutely necessary that something
should be done at once, more especially on
the eastern portion of Third street and

A reader Of the Times, who perused in Sun,
days issue the interesting story connected with
the burning Of Pennsylvania Hall by pro,
slavery mob in 1888, remarked Yesterday:
"When the mob got around iuto Thirteentn
street, above Callowhill, and started to apply
the torch to the African Orphan Asylum, it was
felt to be the crisis OF the disorder. The old
GOODWILL Engine Company are entitled to the
credit Of breaking the backbone OF the riot.
They were the first and, think, the only COM
panY who had the pluck to cndcavor to save tile
city from the disgrace aud monetary responsi-
bfity of the destruction Of the Home. The
other companies werHcowed bv the threats of
the Southern students and the rut1ians who
had threatened to cut the hose when Penn
sylyanta Hall vas burned. But If fight
fellows were just on 1t. They stood to their
pumps and they kept the crowd away from their
hose. As soon as the first stream fell on the
Asylum ; deatening cheer went uD. 1twas the
auietus Of the mob,-the restoration Of sober
sense and good citizenship. The disorderly
skunk away, and the people turned in and helped
the fremen, and the building Was saved. And
all through little rluck. Well, years rolled
on, fifteen of them. believe; some Of those
orphan black children grew up to manhood and
Win boys had had in the riot was lapstns into
tradition. One night-ft was somewhere along
in the '50s-the boys were having little eocial
time. They were INTERRUPTED by the appearance
OF well-dressed young colored man, who car
ried case under his arm. They were all asog
in minute. The visitor had a quiet audience,
you may depend. He removed the cover of the
box and Displayed handsome silver pitcher.
In few graceful words be referred to the
gallant sct Of the uudismayed Goodwill boys,

all done SO quietly and easily thar the members
