marching and counter-marching some

lor's Opera House, where they
participated in most elegant supper
comprising all the choicest delicscies
Of the season, served in exquisite
taste, and enlivened with many sal
lies Of wit and humor, and happy
speeches. From the supper table
they returned in company with the
Hand in Hand to their house and
were dismissed for the night On
Friday morning after partaking Of
sumptuous breakfast further bospi-
tally Of the gallant Hand in Hand,
they visited the different institutions
in that charming city, and about one
O'Clock they fled in line and marched
to the State Prison. Cautiously re-
ceiyed, they were shown through the
same and the various working depart
ments, and were most favorably
impressed with the general unexcep-
tionable appearance Of the prison and
systematic management By a very
polite invitation they then visited the
Eagle fire company, and enjoyed
rich banquet very handsomely pre-.
pared by the Eagles for them, and
whose hospitable table they only left
when summoned to the cars, Upon
arriving home, they were escorted by
the Beverly band, who acquitted
themselves in a most satisfactory
manner, and their particularly de-.
Gghtful visit closed without an
incident to mar the occasion. We
are requested by the Young America
to express their hearty thanks to the
Hand and Hand for their courtesy
and marked attention in every partic-

ship, they hope to reeiprocste the
generous Inequalities extended them.
They also feel much indebted to the
Eagle company, whose fraterDal feel
ings will long be remembered and
warmly cherished.

TIE ELECTRIC ALARM.

Had there been the least desire
to know aOhy the water works alarm
after working satisfactorily upon COM
pletion, failed partly to respond the
morning of the fire at Kirby & Bros.
canning house, and as mere act Of
justice and an ordinary courtesy to
the parties concerned, the simple
truth would have been learned that
as anticipated, (but for certain reasons
thought best to test it, the bell in
the engineers house proved too small
for the purpose. At the moment
alluded to, the bell at the works was
heard distinctly in Pearl street, some
800 feet distant. An alarm similar
to thatin question, and one of full
10000 erected BY Messrs. Partricl
&Carter during the past three years
saved Allen Fl. Gangewer's hous.
on Greenbank, from robbery 9 few
nights since. The NEWS will be th,
