Street HandbfIls.

Mayor Robertson, of New Haven, has per-
 formed public duty, and attacked public
 nuisance which is becoming intolerable, in calling the attention of the police depart ment to the distribution of handbill advertise
 ments to everybody on the sidewalks. This thing is an abominable nuisance in Hartford, and it seems it is so in New Haven. People of course fling away the handbill as soon az it is glanced at, and the streets and gutters
 are shamefully disfgured with these white and colored papers. Here, colored men are hired, dressed up in scarlet and tinsel, to hand out these street advertisements to every body who will take them. Mayor Robertson deserves the thanks of his own city, if not of ours, for what he says on this subject "There is another nuisance" said His Honor 'sthat troubles to what should be done I re-
 to the distribution of handbs to people walking
 through the streets. I don't want to disturb any
 body getting honest living, but this bill dstribu
 tion is annoyance that really ought to be forbid den. The gutters in some places are clogged with
 them, and they fill up the catch basins and make 8
 great deal of work for the road department. I've
 made rule about dumping coal the sidewalks and
 leaving it there and don't allow more than one
 dumped until the last got out of the
 way.'
 Probably way could be found to stop this,
 like any other public nuisance.-Hartford II21ais,

Brfdgeport,s CommerciaI Interests.


 Since the decline of the whale fishery busi- ness deprived this city of a thriving indus try Bridgeport's maritime interests have amounted to but very little. In the way of foreign imports, about the only commodities received are salt and plaster, and but com paratiyely small quantities of these articles are delivered here. It has been the opinion of those well qualified to judge that if some of our business men chose to undertake the enterprise, an extensive and profitable West India trade could be built up. Negotiations looking to that end were begun by firm of this city about a year ago, and, we are glad to say, will probably prove successful, ar rangensents having been practically compile ted for the establishment of regular line of vessels between this city and the West In dies. It is the plan to have two schoonerR- one fast sailing vessel of about two hun dred tons burthen, to run as a fruiter, and the other a vessel of about four hundred and fifty tons burthen, to carry general merchan- disc. The schooners are already selected, and unless some unexpected and improbable hitch in the arrangements takes place, will begin running early in the fall. Captain John Evans, who has had twenty three years experience in the West India trade, is inter ested in the enterprise, and will probably have the general management of it.-B'Tdge- port Farmer.

Madame Etelka Gerster, supported by 8 first class company, with MT. George W. Col by as musical director, will appear at Carll's Opera House Wednesday evening, May IS. It will be one of the finest opera companies that has visited this city during the present season, and the house will doubt be crowded.

 THE GREAT REPUBLIC.
 This and tomorrow evenings and Saturday afternoon Professor J. M. Hager's popular and unique entertainment entitled ssThe Great Republic" will be given at Peck's Grand Opera House. Professor Hager will be assisted by Professor B. Jepson and six hundred young ladies and gentlemen of this city, who have been selected from the public schools for their special vocal talent. A cal cium light will be introduced at times to add to the splendor of the allegory and tableaux, and the entire entertainment will be one of rare merit and beauty. Librettos and re- served seats are on sale at Loomis'.
 ANNIE P1xLEY.
 This evening Miss Annie Pixley will appear at the New Haven Opera House as ''MLiss" in her celebrated play of ''The Child of the Sierras." She will be supported by g first class company, and will appear also to-mor- row evening. A Philadelphia paper says of her: 'tAnnie Pixley is always and deserved ly favorite in Philadelphia. Her personal attractiveness has much to do with it-as much, perhaps, as her excellence as an &C., tress Miss is probably her most accepta- ble as well as most celebrated speciality, and she has long since won fame in the presenta- tion of the title role Her re-appearance last evening at the Walnut in this character was the occasion of an ovation which must have been highly gratifying to her, and showed the hold she had on the public. She is well supported by MT. John E. McDonough, sterling actor, as Tuba Bill and the remain ing characters are well sustained.
