FREDERlCA.

/ Not being a resident of this town
any more perhaps had better not say
too much on the subject intend to
speak of, viz: The entertainment
given here on the evenings Of Decem-
Der 2jth and 2Gth, by the Standard
Comedy Co., of Philadelphia. Every
one was disappointed, and many laid
the blame upon the Dramatic Associa-
tion for engaging them; but it is very
unjust for the people to do this, as they
could only judge them by their pro-
grammes and by recommendations
they held from other parties.
There is no one who feels the disap-
pointment more keenly than the COM
mittee of one, who waited upon the
manager ofthis company and engaged
them. l, for one, think that the Ora
matte Association of Frederica de-
serves credit for an undertaking ofthis
kind even if the entertainment did not
come up to expectation. It showed
that they had the nerve to take a risk.
The people must also be slow to con-
denim the Standard Comedy Company,
for they appeared in Frederick under
adverse circumstances. One OF their
principal artists was taken sick on the
evening previous to their coming down
to Frederica, and the manager was
compelled to substitute another lady,
of whom he knew but little.
In my opinion, the main fault lay in
the piece played; instead of farces, they
should have selected good drama, and
the audience would have enjoyed it
more. VISITOR.

OUR STREETS.

A road could hardly be in worse con-
dition than was Causey avenue and
Walnut street during the thaw last
week and it is only q foretaste of what
we shall have to endure if some action
is not taken at once. We know that
our citizens want those streets put in
good order, and that they will not COM
plain of the cost.
The Town Council should at once
contract for enough shells to cover the
streets from the depot to Lowery's
Hotel with from six to twelve inches,
have them delivered at the depot, and
the next time the ground thaws spread
them. They would settle into the
mud and the result would be solid
rOad-bed that would need no repairs
for year. If it is not done at once,
the citizens of Milford should hold a
meeting and compel the Council to do
their duty.
When Hon. w. F. Causey donated
to the town strip ten feet wide the
whole length Of Causey avenue, there
was written agreement that the town
should put the avenue in good order
and pave the sidewalks from Mr.. Caus-
ey,s grounds to the depot. The ground
was given without solicitation, solely
for the good of the town, and to have
such liberality met by such petty
meanness, on the part of the town, is
poor encouragement to any of our cit
izens who might wish to improve it.
The pavement cannot be laid pow; but
when the spring opens we shall bring
the subject up agaiu and keep it before
the people till some action is taken TO
redeem the credit Of the town. In the
meautlme let US lave the shells,
