Mr.. Bishop says OF President Tack

An eye witness who took somewhat
Iocose view of the days events wrote
tnat the most remarkable feature about
jackson as he marched down the aisle
OF the senate with a quick. large step.
az though he proposed TO storm the
capitol, was his double pair of spec
tacles. He habitualIy wore two pairs.

Ing at distance, the pair not In use
being placed across the top of his head
On this occasion, says the eye witness.
the pair on his head reflected the light
and some OF the rural admirers of the
old hero were firmly persuaded that
they were two plates of metal let into
his head to close up holes made by
British bullets. When he appeared on
the portico we are told that the shout
which arose rent the air and seemed to
shake the very ground. The cere-
mony ended, the general mounted his
horse to proceed TO the white bouse
and the whole crowd followed him
The president" says a contempor.

motley concourse OF people. riding

derstood that refreshments were to be
distributed"
An abundance of refreshments had
been provided. including many barrels
OF orange punch. As the walters
opened the doors to bring out the
punch In pals the crowd rushed uponi
them, upsetting the pals and breaking
the glasses. Inside the house the
crush was so great that distribution Of
refreshments was impossible, and tubs
OF orange punch were set out in the
grounds TO entice people from the
rooms. Jackson himself was SO
pressed against the wall Of the recep-
ton room that he was in danger of in
jury and was protected by a number of
men linking arms and forming a bar
rier against the crowd. Men with boots
heavy with mud stood on the satin COW
cred chairs and sofas in their eagernegs
to get view OF the hero. Judge Story
wrote that the crowd contained all
sorts OF people. from the highest and
most polished down to the most vulgar
and gross In the nation. Il never saw
such mixture" he added. "The reign
OF King Mob seemed triumphant. /
was glad to escape from the scene as
soon as possible"

much good IL sectional bitterness Is
avoided. As the matter stands now,
the publishers are entirely to blame.
There are firms in the school-book pub

THE CITY HOSPITAL.
A Meeting WILDE Held, This Even.
ing, at City Hall Building
For Election Of Officers and to Lay Out WorI
For the Year.

A meeting of the Augusta City Hos
pital Corporation will be held, this
evening, at the City building, at 80
for the purpose of electing officers and
laying out the work for the ensuing
year.
1t is hoped that all who are interested
in the hospital will show their interest
by being present. With the new board
of directors to be selected depends
largely the success of the enterprise
A good sum of money has been
pledged and a three days fair is pro-
posed to, be held later in the season.
The Legislature will also be asked to
appropriate a yearly sum for this. as
it also does for hospitals in Portland,
Lewiston and Bangor.
No particular effort has yet been
made to solicit contributions except
from persons who would give large
sums. but the members of the commit
tee are much gratfied at their success.
A personal canvass viii soon be made.
and all given an opportunity to con-
tribute what they desire to this worthy
causes
Augusta is the center of the Kennebec
valley, and a hospital here would re-
ceive the patronage of as large popu-
lation as the hospitals of Bangor or
Lewiston. They are already success
full and calling for larger quarters.
Shall not Augusta be equally progress
sive?
