Two m irrors belonging to the Masonic Hall were carried oil Tuesday night by parties wh » wore in .ttoada 10# upon tim - calico ball. The parties who took these glasies nro known, and they are request ed to return them and thus save unpleas ant publicity, which will fellow a failure to do so. The fla' os belong to the lut.ll, and tho managers of the party do hot wish to replace them with money that should go to the benefit of tho orphans. Another Esrspfl from the Chain Hang. Another prisoner -uceoedeJ in effecting his on cape from tlio chain gang night be fore last, and is still at large. We do not know how many have made their escapo from tho gang, but the number nmounts to about half of all who have been sen tenced by the County Court. This thing is getting to lie monotonous, and if sonic arrangement :s not made for an efficient guard for these prisoners it is worse than Useless to send them out. It amounts to so punishment at all, and is equivalent to turning tho prisoners loose. Street Improvement. Since Mr. Gustin, our street contractor, left the Tark two months ago, ho lias made great improvements in Orange, Arch, First, Second and Fourth streets, in fact lia* put them in a better condi- I tion than they ever were before. I Heretofore, the water, during heavy rains, accumulated in vast quantities on j the hill in and about Orange street, and in perfect torrents dashed down across First nnd the streets below, washing deep gullies across them, and frequently mak ing them impassable. By means of a system of ditches, sewer* and embank ments, this immense sluice of water is now diverted from running across First street, and is carried safely through the factory grounds to tho branch in the rear, and is so conducted ont of the city. Having thus provided against washes, Mr. Gustin has proceeded to givo tho streets a proper shape, providing for a perfect drainage. Clay and gravel have been added, which gives a hard smooth surface cither in wet or dry weather. This work is now going on, and in a few •recks will bo completed, and it may be safely affirmed that tho streets thus at tended to will bo in better condition than they have ever been. During the recent rains Second street ha* presented no standing ponds of water. There is not the shadow of a wash upon it anywhere, and the surface remains as firm nnd smooth as could be desired. Tho work will stand, because it is well done. v Held far Nitaxc. The following letters are held for post age in the Macon post-office: F. M. Long, Atlanta, Go.; Mrs. S. N.
