Now the owner of Watkins Hall has always shown himself a man of cncrg yaml willing to do any thing that would add to the eointor of the public; nnd were tho llall used often enough to warrant the fix ing better seats and accomodations, lie would certainly do so; biitour city people don’t think it hardly right to pay anything for the use of it when 'tis for the benefit ol churches chari ty &c I think the owner 1ms been over liberal for such purposes, too much so for any complaint ns to comfort and the writer of tho article in the Progress knows this well enough. 1 am sorry for any thing that may have been uncomfortable to him, anil 1 would suggest a PILLOW next time he goes to Watkins’ Hull, for his own especial sitting.
