The black fish excursion Tbunday,
on the Passport seemed to have been
at least an enjoyable affair, if not a com
plele success as a fish-catch. However
1 .t - - ....... . j .
nearly all the fishermen we saw had a
good siring, and some bad plenty for
their friends.
Tne erection of the livery and sale
stables on the corner of Fourth and
Mulbu( streets, by Messrs. Merritt &
HollingsKortb, is quite an improve
ment in that lcciiityj-and make's busi
ness have a brighter, aspect in that por
tion of the city. " J
Chas. Reed, colored, escaped ;from
the City Hospital Thursday night.
Reed was arrested a few days back, on
ou a charge of larceny, and in attempt
ing to escape, he was shot at and wound
ed in the lfg. Uerce he was placed
in the hospital for surgical treatment.
Wasn't that a cass of leg bail?
Now U itie ' ;eison - "for 'renovating,
painting &.'.., and our peopie seem I to
think so. Oaf painters are kept pret;
ty bny,- as a siroll c round the City will

plenty to do, and trusl that they
get fairly paid for it. Think of salt
