A number of would-be young lad ies
and gentlemen kept up disturbance
at the Congregational evening services
last Sunday. Where young folks think
they are old enough to go into society
it would seem they were old enough
to behave at gathering where other
people wish to hear. Such i'll manners
are disgrace to themselves, and also
to their parents, who doubtless think
their children are lady-like and gen
tlemen when away from home.

sprinkler, and the good effects of his
work were soon quite noticeable. 1t is
hoped that the business men will re-

council (s2O a month"; is not near
enough pay for good work, although
it is all the council is warranted in
appropristing for that purpose.

STEAMERS BURNED.
Big and Destructive Fire I'm the River at
Cincinnati, %.

CINCINNATI, Aug. 6.-The levee was
visited by a 100000 fire Monday after
noon, in which one half of the Laidley
river steamboat line was destroyed
within two hours. At 1910 o'clock a
pile of 1000 bales of hay stored
in the west end of the Gin
cinnati & Memphis wharf sudden
ly burst into flames and in ten minutes
had communicated to the Louisville
mail line wharf tied just above.
To this wharf were tied the
steamers Big Sandy, Carrollton
and II. X. Bedford, the first two
of which were entirely consumed
their black bulls sinking in the murSy
waters at o'clock. An up-river wind
was blowing SO stifily that although
the Carrollton and Big Sandy were cut
loose they refused TO float down stream,
but were blown against the wharf and
caught fire, Notwithstanding all efforts
to save them.
The loss on the Memphis wharfboat
is placed at 500 900; on the Louisville
wharfboat, Sl2, 900; on the Big Sandy,
$4,000. The steamer Big Sandy was
valued at $50, 600 and the Carrollton az
SO, 900. All the steamers and wharves
were the property of Commodore Laid
ley, president of the White Collar line,
and were insured for about two-thirds
their value.
The excitement during the fire was
intense and several employees received
burns Several children on the boats
were rescued at some peril, but with
no fatality.
