A LITTLE HAND.

1.
Perhaps there tendsrsr-sweeter things
Somewhere in this sunbrght land,
But thank the Lord for His blessings
And the clasp OF little hand!
III.
A little hand that softly
Stole that day
When needed the touch loved much
To strengthen the way.
Softer il seemed than the softest down
On the breast of the gentest dove,
But its timid press and It's sweet
Were strong in the strength of love-
It seemed to say, in a strange sweet way,
Il love you and understand"
And calmed my fears hot heart-tears
Fell that little hand.
Perhaps there tenderer-sweeter things
Somewhere in this sunbrght land,
But thank the Lord for His blessings
And the clasp of little hand!

the committee, contains an amendment
which Is looked upon BY the theatrical

This amendment attempts to stamp

amendment outlined above the Alder

There is some hope entertained by

The Executive can veto a measure

gave a performance in their canvas
theatre at the corner of Fourth and
Court Street last night The tent was
packed and many were turned away
because there was no more room.
The idea of presenting a minstrel
performance under canvas is quite
original, and judging from the crowd
last night we judge that it is a paying
venture. The tent is arranged with
stage scenery and curtains the same
as an opera honse.
The performance as a whole was
meritorious. The sayings and gags
were all very good, as the choruses,
ballads and other singing. The or
ehestra was also good. In the olio
the male electric electrical dance, the
terpsichorean artist and "Pastimes of
the Levee" were amusing, and the
riproaring farce presented as a finale
was a highly ludicrous and mirth-
