SurDrIRed.

A very pleasant and enjoyable event oc- cured at the photographic apparatus factory of the Scovill Sr Adams company at S1 Day street, last evening just as the works were being closed for the day. MT. A. B. Dobbs, the general superintendent, who has occupied that position for six years, was summoned from the office by the engineer to & distant part of the factory to examine some machin- cry that needed looking after at once, and upon reaching the room found the entire force of seventy-fve hands assembled there to meet him. Tho superintendent was invited to take a seat in 8 very elegantly upholstered reclining chair from the warerooms of Cham berlain & Co.,, and Contractor Robinson in behalf of the workmen in a very neat speech then presented him the chair together with 8 handsome oxydized silver smoking set from Geo. H. Ford's token of their apprecia- ton and regard. The superintendent was so completely taken by surprise that it was with great difficulty that he choked down his emo tions and controlled his feelings in order to respond, but judging from the applause it received his reply told plainly that there was the best of feeling between the manager and the men.

The Postomce and the Postmasters- Colonel Knowlton To Resume-A P0uular Official.

The PostofHce and the Postmasters-
 Colonel KnOwIton To Resume-A
 Popular Official.
 Whenever MT. E. F. Meeker retires from
 the postofice in this city Colonel J. W.
 Knowlton will resume the charge. As post
 master MT. Meeker has acquitted himself
 honorably and will retire from the position
 with the good wishes and respect of the com
 munity. Colonel Knowlton was appointed
 postmaster by President Grant in the year 1875 and held the office until November, 1886. His term of office would not have ex- pired by limitation until December, 1887, Following the precedent established by MT. Cleveland's administration in respect to the retirement of Colonel Knowlton, it is possi- ble that MT. Meeker may be asked to vacate the office before the expiration of his official term, but this the future will alone deter mine. The change, if made, will probably not be hastened by any action on the part of Colonel Knowlton, but it is proper to say that business men, irrespective of political connections, are anxious to have the postal service placed in the best possible condition without unnecessary delay. In reference to the successor to the New Haven postmaster ship, it is considered probable that the in- coming appointee will take hold May 18th, which date or thereabouts will complete the present iucumSent's four years, and that the change will not be deferred until year from next January.

Cunning and Savage, whose office will be at Room il, Insurance Building, have organized the United States Collection agency. A branch office will be located at St. Louis and others will be estab- lished in the Eastern and other States.

HIS Personal Experience.

L. T. Harrington, ex-sberiff of Chautau- qua county, N. Y., writes
 l am to say, from long personal experi- ence with Allcock's Plasters, that am able to endorse all the good things that have ever been said about them, and supplement these by saying that frankly believe their value cannot be estimated. Their breadth of use- fulness is unlimited, and for prompt and sure relief to almost every ache and pain that flesh is heir to, no other remedy, in my opinion, external or internal, equals them in certainty and rapidity. I have used them at one time for rheumatism, another for back ache, again for bronchitis, always with the same result-a speedy cure.
