One Of the ''surprise parties" which
have enliyened social life in the west
ern suburbs Of our town this winter,
occurred at Mr.. Frank Warren's on
Wednesday evening OF last week.
Neighbors and friends gathered to the
number Of thirty or more, making the
evening very enjoyable, which enjoy
ment was greatly enhanced by the ad-
dition Of a.'taffy pull. They talk of
forming q permanent association and
collecting funds for some charitable OBJ
iect. A good idea. @

We failed to give the Tennesseans
notice last week only for lack of
room. We are sorry not to be able to
commend the entertainment but truth
compels us to say that they did not
meet the expectations raised by their
bills. They were not the original Ten
nesseans except in name, and their
music had nothing attractive to one
who has previously heard negroes sing
plantation melodies. Their voices had
only strength to recommend them.
They were both harsh and uncultivated
and their songs lacking novelty were
scarcely worthy the patronage receiy-
ed. We learn from our exchanges that
In some respects they were equal to

A Lax and Incapable Mayor.

A communication addressed to the several
Police Commissioners was Issued from the
Mayors Office yesterday, in the name OF
EDWARD COOPER, the nominal Mayor Of the
city.
Mr. COOPER says the government and dis
ciplne OF the police force have become lax
and incapable" Exactly what tho Mayor
means by Incapable discipline we do not un-
dersiand. 1t seems to us that the whole let
ter shows the Mayor himself to be lax and
incapable-just what his best friends all
along feared he would show himself to be
after getting into office.
The accusations against the Police Com
missioners are drawn up in the most general
terms, and very loosely, in such manner
as to admit OF no specific answer. 1t is not
pretended by Mr.. COOPER that no has ono
atom Of proof in their support.
Mr.. COOPER complains that the police
force has become demoralizcd. Mr.. COOPER
himself has done all he could to demoralize
the force, during the past week. by circulating
baseiess scandals. secretly procured by him,
about Gen. SMITH, President of the Board
Of Police Commissioners; So accepting this
statement 20 be true the Mayor may chiefly
blame himself that it is true
The entire document is very discredtable
TO Mr. COOPER. 1t indicates a foregone con-
ciusion to remove the Commissioners, Justly
or uniustly. The object in doing this is
well understood to be political. Their
places are wanted for politicians OF par
ticuur stripe.
We learn that the Mayor was circulating
great numbers OF his discreditable letter
yesterday, printed, of course, at the expense
Of the city-a proceeding most undignined
and unwarranted. What right has he to
put the city TO an expense OF this kind?
Indeed, IL has already come to be univer-
sally understood that EDWARD COOPER is
not the real Mayor.
