The hall was fairly thronged, the gallery was crowded, aDd every available seat at the sides and rear was occupied, whilst the floor, prepared for the occasion, was graced with myriads of merry dancers. Some of the toilets of the ladies were sim ply superb, and in contrast with the various arrest OF A NOTORIOUS DESPE RADO. The Perpetrator of the Effingham Conn- ty Outrages in Custody. Arrangements had been made by our mil itary to commemorate the one hundred and forty-fourth anniversary of the birth of Washington with unusual eclat and enthusi asm, but the elements intervened, and the anticipated pleasure and brilliancy of the occasion were considerably marred. The programme provided for a general parade, but in consequence of the rain which set in about the time announced for the rendezvous of the several corps, this was interrupted, and the various companies paraded on their own account. OGLETHORPE LIGHT INFANTRY. The Oglethorpes did not come out dur ing the morning, although a large num ber of the members appeared at their armory in uniform, but in consequence of the change in the general plans for the cele bration they were dismissed to meet at in the afternoon for parade and their prize drill. the republican blues.

We did not anticipate seeing a very large audience at the Theatre last evening, consequence of the numerous attractions elsewhere in the city, and conse quently ^were somewhat surprised to find so large a house. Josh Billings, the great American humorist, made his appear ance punctually at eight o’clock, aud was greeted with loud applause. For over an hour and a half he entertained the audience with random selections from his readings, aud kept the house iu a continual uproar. His quaint sayings contained a mint of wis dom, philosophy and sound common sense, and the audience were not slow to appreciate the many capital hits that were made. One may not only derive amusement but instruction from hearing Josh, and we advice those who desire to pass an enjoyable evening to be sure and see him. We commend the entertainment to our friends in other cities. Billings is a trump, and knows the weak spots in human nature and knows how to touch them on the raw. The audience last evening was thoroughiy pleased with the lecture, as was evidenced* by the frequent and hearty ap plause. “Who is the Author We learn that some curiosity has been ex pressed regarding the authorship of the highly interesting article on the Lee family which appeared in our columns on the 19th of January, and one on the early history of General Washington, which appeared yes terday. Some have attributed these sketches to a prominent lawyer and military gentleman of our city, whose devotion to Southern chivalry is well known, and who bears the same initials as those signed by our con tributor. For the benefit of those who love to guess, we will simply state that the author is not a member of either the legal or the military profession. His literary scholarship is equalled only by his polish as a gentleman and his geniality as a friend. Ho has enjoyed peculiarly favorable op portunities for learning much that is in teresting regarding the past and present nobility of old Virginia, and has kindly furnished us this information for the readers of his favorite journal in the South, the Morning News. Davy Crockett. This evening, Mr. Frank Mayo, an actor of rare ability, supported by a strong and excellent company, will make his first appearance in our city, at the Theatre, for a brief engagement of two nights. On this occasion will be presented the thrillingly emotional and exciting drama of “Davy Crockett,” depicting iife on the border. Whilst this drama is exceedingly exciting, there is no blood and thunder gush about it, and the portraiture of the noble character of Crockett is considered one of the finest pieces of artistic acting on the American stage. Quite a number of secured seats have been taken, and it would be well for those who desire eligible locations to call at Schreiner’s without delay. Re member, Mr. Mayo remains here but two nights. The New Synagogue. The corner stone of the new Synagogue Mickva Israel, will be laid by Grand Master David E.

Anderson, who also presented full ranks, after marching through several of the principal streets, proceeded to the Park extension where they went through some evolutions and then returned to tho city and were dismissed at their respective armories. jasper greens were out under command of Captain John Flannery, and made a short parade, and proceeding to Washington square, they fired a salute by platoons in honor of the day. They then marched to Captain Flan nery’s residence, where they were hospita bly entertained, and afterwards returning to their parade ground were dismissed to meet in the evening at their new armory and enjoy the festivities of a social hop. JOHNSTON LIGHT INFANTRY. The corps made their appearanco under command of Captain A. Pratt Adams, and presented unusually full ranks, having out nearly thirty members rauk and file. They made a fine display, and their full ranks were the subject of many flattering com ments from their numerous friends. They proceeded out Bull street to the Park, and after parading through several of the prin cipal streets marched to their drill room and were dismissed, previously marking their commemoration of the day by certain convivialities. GEORGIA HUSSARS. The dashing Hussars assembled in .the morning on their parade ground, in force, determined to celebrate the day, and made an extensive parade through the city, after wards proceeding to the Park where they were put through cavalry drill, aud return ing to the city were dismissed. It is need less to remark that they had a lively time of it, and made the occasion pleasant to their friends. CHATHAM ARTILLERY. This, the oldest organization in the city and State, made a splendid appearance un der command of Capi. Wheaton, and hon ored the day by firing a salute of thirteen guns at noon in the Park extension. The miserable condition of the streets and the disagreeable weather prevented anything like the usual demonstration, but what was { lossible under the circumstances the Chat- lams did. GERMAN VOLUNTEERS. The Volunteers assembled at their usual rendezvous early in the morning, and by half-past eleven o’clock commenced their parade. They visited a number of their friends, and were entertained in the gener ous, hearty manner characteristic of tbe Germans, and had a very pleasant day, des pite the unpropitious weather. THE GUARDS. The Savannah Volunteer Guards Batta lion, under command of Major W. S. Bas inger, assembled at their arsenal at 10 o’clock, aud, proceeding to Wright square, were formed iu line and supplied with blank cartridges. They theu paraded out Bull street to the Park, aud returning halted at the intersection ot South Broad aud Bull, where the command were exercised in firing by sections and platoons. After tbe firing the Guards proceeded to their armory and were dismissed, with instructions to re assemble in uniform at their arsenal at 9 o’clock to march to Masonic Temple to par ticipate in the pleasures of the grand ball tbat had been arranged to crown their cele bration of the day. CONVIVIALITIES. After the return of the Blues and Chat- hams to their respective quarters about one o’clock, a committee of »he former visited the Cbathams at their armory and extended them a formal invitation to partake of the hospitalities of the Blues at their drill room. The Cbathams were formed in column of twos, and under escort of tho committee of the Blues, marched to the armory of the latter, on Broughton street near Bull, where three rousing cheers were given in compliment to that popular and veteran organization. The guests were then escorted up stairs to the drill room, where a fine collation, bounte ously flanked with choice liquids, had been prepared. As the exercises of the day had given zest to appetites, ample justice was done the substantial, and when the liquors were brought under discussion tongues were loosened, and speeches, toasts and songs followed in rapid succes sion. After a very delightful hour or so spent in these convivialities the commands bid adieu, the Blues being expressly ordered to report themselves in the evening at the headquarters of the Chathams, there to re ceive a “punching” commensurate with their merits. PRIZE DRILL OF THE OGLETHORPES, At half-past 3 o’clock in the afternoon the Oglethorpe Light Infantry assembled at their drill room, there being thirtj men in ranks, under command of Lieutenant S. W. Branch. After being formed, the company proceeded out Bull street to the Park ex tension, where they were put through the usual evolutions, acquitting themselves most creditably. Returning to the city, they came down to the Bay, and, marching up Whit aker, complimented the Morning News office with a salute. This is the first mili tary company that has thus compliment ed the Morning News siuce its removal to the present quarters. They pro ceeded direct to their drill room, where arrangements had been made for the com pany prize drill for the gold medal. The room was soon crowded with their com rades of other companies and friends, aud the contest was watched with great interest. The drill commenced at five o’clock, and pro gressed with but few interruptions for rest until six o’clock, the full ranks, having,unde r the «evere ordeal, dwindled down in the meantime to the following six: Sergeant IPournell, Sergeant C. S. Law, Corporal F. M. Gage, Privates J. 8. Steven son and B. C. Kennedy. This small band stood the ordeal without fliuching for nearly thirty minutes, and there was no room for speculation as to who would be the victor, as each seemed to be perfect in the manual of arms. At o’clock the contest was resumed, and the interest began to increase, as it was evident that the drill would have to be brought to a close in a short while. After a few minutes the ranks were broken by Private Stevenson stepping out, followed few seconds by Corporal Gage, then Sergeant Pournell and private Kennedy. The contest was thus narrowed down be tween Sergeant Law and private Kennedy, and the drill was quite spirited. Finally the question was settled by private Kennedy stepping out, leaving Sergeant Law as the victor, for the second time, he having won the medal at the last drill. The contest closed shortly after seven o’clock. The company was reformed, and Sergeant Law was called to tho front and centre, when the prize was presented him by Lietuenant Branch, in a very neat and appropriate speech. Sergeant Law was warmly con gratulated by his comrades upon his hard earned victory. After the presentation the company was dismissed. tion on the 29th. illa*azine» for March. and illustrated Connor’s News All the latest magazines weeklies can be found at Depot and Circulating Library, No. 23 Bull street.

Masonic Temple was ablaze with beauty and chivalry last evening, in houor of the grand ball’ of the Savannah Volunteer Guards, aud graud it was indeed. Proba bly, in point of brilliancy and artistic beauty, no grander scene than was wit nessed in the splendid hall of Masonic Temple last evening has ever marked the annals of social gatherings in our fair city of Savannah. The hall was very magnificently and most profusely decorated. The stage was occupied by the Guards’ Brass Band and Professor Straub’s orchestra, the scenery in tho background constituting a woodland view. Above the stage was stretched a banting with the fol lowing inscription in evergreen letters : “THE BRAVE DESERVE THE FAIR,” a most appropriate and felicitous quotation, considering the occasion and the gathering. Along the eastern wall of the hall, amidst artistic decorations, appeared the names ot all the commanders of the Guards from the date of their organization until the present time, to wit: Cummings, 1802; Marshall, 1808- Fell, 18ii- Tattnall, 1818; Jackson, 1832; Robert son ’ 1837; Bowen, 1840; Richardson, 1845; Screven, 1S52-1858; Basinger, - Beneath this scroll of honored names, and between tbe windows were gracefully group ed the various flags of the Guards, with guidons and swords; in swords in one section, a largo portrait of Gen. Lee, with a small one of Major Basinger above; in the other & portrait of Washington and above that of Gen. Joseph E. Johnston. The entire room was most elaborately deco rated with hanging loops of evergreens and flowers, with here and there bird cages, with silver voiced occupants, suspended, the whole gracefully and artistically ar ranged In the southwestern corner of the hall amidst a bower of ivy and flowers, and’amongst a group of feathered song sters in beautiful cages, was erected a fountain charged with cologne, and the falling sprays into the basin created.a de licious perfume that permeated the vast deed fair to look upon. The gas lights disseminated their brilliant rays upon a gathering of fair women and brave men the like of which is seldom seen. It would be impossible in the brief time allotted us to describe in full this ball, suffice it tbat the Guards can refer to it as one of the grandest and most brilliant ever given in the South. The supper was well in keeping with the other appointments. It was a most elegant feast, and did rare credit to the taste and skill of the ladies of the Episcopal Orphans’ Home, who pre pared it. About half-past twelve o’clock the dancers adjourned to the supper room over the hall, and there we left them. But later, the sound of delicious strains wafted from the hall was a token that they had again re turned to the services of Terpsichore, and as may be presumed, these pleasing ser vices were kept up until the “wee sma' hours,” and then, we doubt not, they were reluctant to leave. It was the ball of balls, and the participants will ever remember it with pleasure. THE HOP OF THE JASPERS. The Jasper Greens, one of the most popu lar of our Savannah companies, and rejoic ing in a historic name, celebrated the eve- ning by a grand hop at their new armory in the Masonic building, corner of Bull and Broughton streets. The hop was, far as attendance and pleasure is concerned, one of the most successful ever given by the company. The hall was crowded, and among those present when we dropped in, at a late hour, we noticed repre sentatives of the other companies in the city. We congratulate the Jaspers upon the success of their ball, which was credita ble to even so important an occasion as the celebration of Washington’s birthday in the centennial year of American Indepen dence. THE CHATHAMS’ SOCIAL. The Chathams gathered at their armory about eight o’clock and received their com rades of the Republican Blues, in conform ity with previous understanding. Of course that mammoth punch bowl with the harmless liquid was on hand, with other good things, and the merriest evening imaginable was the result. Under the inspiration of this po tent punch, bright ideas and brilliant thoughts found expression, and speeches, anecdotes, songs, repartees, passed alonj: the line in quick succession amidst roars oi laughter and vociferous applause. The read ers of the Morning News are so familiar with these entertainments of the Chat hams, noted for their boundless hospitality and incomparable jollity, that we consider the simple statement that the occasion was equal in all respects to the previous enter tainments of this old and veteran corps, amply sufficient to convey an idea of the experiences of last evening. WASH I NCI TON’S BALL. Dedication of the New Hall. The Washington Fire Company last night celebrated their anniversary, and the oc cupation of their new hall, by one of the most pleasant balls that the company have participated in since its organization. The new hall was brilliantly lighted, and was crowded with merry devotees of the Terpsi- chorean goddess. At the old hall a table was laid out with a full supply of champagne and other neces saries. The Mayor, Board of Aldermen, Chief Fireman Blair, Assistant CLiet Osceola Butler, E. A. Soullard, Esq., and others visited the hall during the evening, and ex pressed themselves highly pleased with the appearance of the building and its appoint ments. They did not, however, forget tne old hall, where, over brimming glasses, many good wishes were tendered tho company and a pleasant time was spent, the officers and members of the company vieing with each other in courteous attention to their guests. In the engine room of the new hall a table bountifully supplied with all the delicacies of the season was displayed. This supper, so well arranged, was provided by Mr. Hi G. Ruwe. The new hall is most admirably arranged, and the company feel gratified in its occupa tion. On the first floor is the engine roonx which is very large, with ample accommo dation for the steamer, stables for tho horses, a wash room and water closet. The second floor is an excellently designed aud pleasantly arranged hall, with a spacious gallery at the northern end for music, and under the gallery are two rooms intended as sleeping apartments for the en gineer aud drivers. We bid the Washingtons good speed in their new quarters, and hope the centennial year will be a prosperous and successful one with them. Tlie ltaces at Thunderbolt. Notwithstanding the exceedingly unpleas ant weather, and the varied attractions in the city, there'was quite a large crowd at the Thunderbolt Park Course yesterday af ternoon to witness the trotting race an nounced to take place. There were four entries, but only three started, as follows: William Lovell, New York, enters hr. g. Barney Kelly. W. B. Crawford, New York, enters br. m. Annie Collins. M. J. Doyle, Savannah, enters b. g.Faugh- a-Ballagh. The track was in fair condition and the several heats were well contested and ex cellently managed, and to the entire satis faction of the visitors. The first heat was won by Faugh-a-Ballagh, Barney Kelley second, Annie Collins third. Time, 2:45. The second heat was also taken by Faugh-a-Ballagh, with Annie Collins second, and Barney third. Time, 2:4G. In the third heat there was a change, Annie winning by short odds, throwing Faugh-a-Ballagh second, and Barney third. Time 2:45. The fourth heat excited considerable in terest, as in the event of Faugh-a-Ballagh failing to \un there would have to be an other heat, and the result of which would have been doubtful. A fine start was made and the nags swept by tho stand in fine style,Faugh-a-Ballagh at the turu of the halt taking the lead and coming in ahead oq tho mile, winning the heat and the race, Annie Collins second, Barney Kelley third. Time, 2:49. SUMMARY. 12 1 2 12 Barney Kelley 2 3 3 3 The race was for a purse of $250—1150 to the first horse, $75 to the second, $125 to tho third—mile heats, best three in five. We understand that the fine performance of Faugh-a-Ballagh was due to the fact that he was provided with the toe weights patented oy Mr. P. J. Burns, of this city. These weights have the effect of regulating the pace of a horse, and facilitating the driver in bringing him down to work when he breaks. Captain Doyle expresses himself greatly pleased with these weights, and con siders that tho victory of Fangli-a-Ballagh over such competitors is maiuly due to their use. Faugh-a-Ballagh 1 Annie Collins 3 We understand that Bines came to the city yesterday on the Central Railroad, in company with a negro woman, and proceeded to a house on Jefferson street near Wayne. Information of his presence here was received by Mr. Tarver, Supervisor of the Central Railroad, who, with the as sistance of Mr. Ferguson, of this city, took measures to effect his capture. Fortunately their efforts were successful and Bines was secured about five o’clock in the afternoon and was at once carried to the Central de pot, where he was confined in a room. A messenger was sent for some handcuffs, who soon returned, and tho negro was properly braceletted. He was then placed in custody of Mr. Kilpatrick, and left on the six o’clock freight train for Eden, where he will be turned over to the authorities, warrants for his arrest having been issued. We learn from parties direct irom Eden that great excitement exists in the neigh borhood, and strennons efforts have been made to arrest Bines, who is believed to be the ringleader and principal perpetrator in all the crimes that have been com mitted in that section lately. There is strong proof, we understand, that he murdered Mrs. Cochran and her daughter, and also Mr. Zittrouer, whose body was found on the railroad few days since a short distance above Eden. He is also identified as the fellow who fired at Miss Seckinger. The news of the arrest spread rapidly, and quite a crowd gathered at the depot to see the prisoner. Uinta for the Ladiea—Centennial Ilalr- Dressinff. Inquiry into the fashions of our fore mothers convince ns that abominations were then no less practised than at the present and especially in the matter-of the coiffure, since powdering the hair was then more generally inriavor than now. In the matter of powdering the hair, however, in the Centennial dress there is no inflexible de maud for the powder. For matrons, and those to whom t£e style may be becoming, the Pompadour coiffure, if the cap be dis pensed with, is that most nearly in accord ance with what obtained in the days of G randmothers and great-grandmothers; but or younger ladies, as Huntington’s picture shows, other styles are admissible, and as near nature as possible in the careless dis position. Miss Chew, who is just nnder the wing of the nation’s chieftain, is rep resented with curls drooping low over the back of her head, and over her forehead light fringe of ringlets, similar to the style of hair-dressing afterward adopted by tho Empress Josephine; while another young lady, near the right hand of Mrs. Washing ton, appears in a full coiffure of long, luxu riant ringlets. Indeed, the picture abounds with suggestions, and from these our ladies in their dress on the 22d instant will signify their reverence fi-r the glorious early days of our republic, a veneration for our ances try, and a love for their country. Gloves for evening wear are in cream color, faint shades of salmon, apricot, lem on-yellow, straw-color, rose, blue, lilac, lav ender, pearl, and other tints now seen iu the evening silks ; while with white cos- tallies and for wedding receptions, white gloves are still the most,popular. In all cases, evening gloves have from four to six buttons, according to the depth of the sleeve of tho dress; end there are extremists in fashion who insist on from eight to twelve buttons.—Ladies’ Journal. Send Up Your Stamps. A tardy debtor up the country states that he is so hard up that it is impossible for him to obtain stamps to pay postage on letters in reply to them, and intimates that if they desire to receive answers to their inquiries they must furnish him with stamps. Tbe following extract from his letter to a firm in this city will amuse the reader: Lowndes Co., Ga., February 17, 1876. Messrs. . Gentlemen: I wrote.to Messrs. L December last to notify my creditors in Sa vannah the disappointment I had met with and to ask for further extension of time. ] stated fully to them the cause. I have two good lawyers trying to collect a claim for me, which, when or if collected will settle at tho compromise all I owe. I did not want to go into bankruptcy unless pressed to do so. My claim should have been col lected last summer, and my creditors would have been paid at once. I did not write to all my creditors, as I had no stamp to pay postage. This was true, and I have but five cents to-day—three cents goes for this stamp. My creditors will have to forward stamps if they want answers, as I have not, nor can I get ,anv money. Very truly, .

The Police Court attempted to hold a matinee yesterday, but it was a failure, there being no case of interest. Our young men are becoming exceedingly amiable. Quite a number were “ punched” in the head yesterday, and did not resent it. If the reports which were current last night be well founded, there will be some exciting news for our readers to peruse to morrow. Captain C. P. Hyde, of Virginia, well known as one of the representatives of the jassenger service of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, is in town. The cost of lighting the streets lamps with gas is a little over $24,000, not $50,000, as lias been stated, but the use of kerosene will save $19,000 any way. The Schooner A del a 8. Hills. This vessel, reported in the marine column of yesterday’s Morning News as having been spoken at sea with loss of masts, etc., is commanded by Capt. Weston Gregory, an officer well known and very popular at the Southern ports. He is an able and skilful seaman, a man of courage and experience, and it is hoped will succeed in getting his vessel 4nto port. The Adela S. Hills was built for Captain Gregory at Rockland, Me., about a year ago. She "was intended for the Southern trade, and is a first class double deck schooner of 4G5 tons register. Small interests in the vessel are owned here and in Charleston by fnends of Captain Gregory. splendid Butter at 25c. and 30c. per pound, at the Red Grocery, 22 Barnard. feblS Beautiful Sugar at 10c. per pound, at the Red Grocery, 22 Barnard. f e bl 8 Levanted. Upon the opening of the Police Court matinee yesterday, the name of Simpson, the sprightly commercial traveler from Philadelphia, who distinguished himself by insulting some young ladies in Forsyth Park Monday evening, was called, but Simpson re sponded not. Inquiry revealed the fact that tho festive Simpson, with his compagnon du voyage, had kicked the dust of Savannah from his heels and had left for Charleston on the 10:25 train Monday night. In hen of of a bond for his appearance, this gay in dividual had deposited at the Police Bar racks two hundred dollars iu cash and a gold watch and chain, and some other valuables, which are now in possession of the police authorities. In view of the fact that the Mayor could not have, under tho ordinance, imposed more than a fine of $100 upon this worthy, it would seem that he had acted very foolishly in levantiDg, unless he had apprehension* that after the settlement of the case he might be encountered by some of the friends of the ladies and receive a severe drubbing. This is likely, from what we can hear, the cause of his sudden departure. Wool Cotton. The following paragraph, from the Char lotte (N. C.) Observer, may be of interest to some of our readers. We have never heard of a bale ot cotton of the character described having been received in the Sa vannah market: “A bale of cotton, such as has never been seen in this market before by the oldest cotton buyer, was received yesterday by Messrs. Oates Bros., from Isaac Harris, Esq., of Mooresville, Iredell county. It is of the exact texture of wool, and is greasy, and feels to the touch just as wool; it has almost no staple at all, and while certainly a species of this staple, has very few of its qualities. Handfuls of it have been brought here before by the farmers, among whom it is known as vegetable wool cotton, but this is the first bale ever seen here. It has no merchantable vaiae in this market, and will be shipped by Messrs. Oates Bros, to Phila delphia. Mr. Harris expects to realize a large price for it, but cotten men here doubt if he will be able to do this, since the growth cannot be adapted to the uses to which either cotton or wool, strictly speaking, is applied. It is so far from being cotton that no classification can be fonnd for it, and it is just as far from being wool.” Despondency, if allowed unchecked, will often produce a morbid condition, so that the least unsatisfactory affair that happens will swell into terrifying Droportions. The mind being warped often imparts torpidity to the body, all of which more frequently is the effect of inaction of the liver than from any other cause, and by resorting to Sim mons’ Liver Regulator the mind will often find relief with the body. feb!8-F,M,W&wl Flgarea. The New York Financial Chronicle of the 19th inst. says that, for the week ending Friday, the 18th ingt., the total re ceipts have reached 110,576 bales, against 118,582 bales last week, 131,379 bales the previous week, and 152,359 bales three weeks since, making the total receipts since the 1st of September, 1875, 3,295,251 bales, against 2,836,183 bales for the same period of 1874-5, showing an in crease since September 1, 1875, of 459,068 bales.

Compared with last year, there is a de crease of 28,000 bales this year in the week’s shipments from Bombay to Europe, and the total movement since January 1 shows a decrease in shipments of 103,000 bales compared with tho corresponding period of 1875.* “ I Abhor Scandal.” No, my dear—goodness be thanked—no person can say that I ever scandalized any one, not even my worst enemy, no matter what he or she may do. I’ve had chance enough to talk if I had a mind to, as every one in this town knows full well. Of course, living right here in the high street of the town I can’t help seeing many queer things, and when our windows are’open and tho blinds shut in summer time, I can hear them, too. But I never repeat them- scorn to make mischief. I never lisp word, except when I get hold of some per son like yon, my dear, that I know I can trust. And if a body is never to open her month among her own intimate friends, why, the world isn’t worth living in, is it But that isn’t scandal, yon know. I hate and abhor that just as much as you do, and I don’t think any one can say I was ever guilty of it in all my life. But then, as I said before, it isn’t for want of tbe chance. Why, only last even ing as ever was, who do you think I saw walkiug up by here, in the bright mooul light, as brazen as you please, but Miss Lennox and Colonel Parke. Fact, as sure as you sit in that chair! and they were walking close together, and talking so con fidential ! I suppose you know all about that dis graceful affair with the school girls ? No ? My dear, you must really live in the dark ll Why, they have been writing a lot of anony mous letters to people here in the town, and the Postmaster suspected what was up at last, and he just kept a quiet lookout and] caught some of them putting the letters in. I don’t know what Miss Clackett w ill do. Expel them, I hope ; great girls like those have no business to act so! There’s Mrs. Price going by. I suppose she has been down to cheapen’a fowl, or get a half-penny or two taken off a joint of meat. She ; s the stingiest thing, my dear; it would really make your heart ache to hear of the way she manages and contrives ! And there is her husband, one of the richest men in the town, and folks do say that he can’t get a decent meal of victuals iu his own house. Wouldn’t you— What! going ? Can’t’you stay any longer?) I Well, do come again very soon, won’t you I [Good-bye! Thank goodness, she has gone ! I reall thought she was going to stay all night. I heard a nice story about her, by the way t last week—how shamefully she treats all her servants ! Suppose she thinks I don’t know it. I might mate mischief enough in her| Ifamily if I chose.
