The show at the Academy of Music
last Wednesday evening was good, and
we unqualifiedly commend to our neigh

They are away above the average, and
as square in their dealings as they
are excellent behind the footlights.
Is il fact that a regular. everyday
aud-night crap room has been fitted up
in a building down town, right under
the caves of the Temple of Justice!
We were about to ask that the author
tiles determine whether it is so. or
not-but. alas. outside of Sheriff Fish
er, whom is there to call upon?
If the prevailing epidemic-dipthe-
ria2-is the result of the bad sanitary
condition of this town, then the whole
country--from east to west, from north
to south. from centre to circumference

most deplorable plight. The Ironton
smelling committee in order to oversee
0oxious things in all their notifications
will have to make Wandering Jews OF
