Last night, while the Newcomb Minstrels
were seated alonx in a row at Masonic Hall,
qiito annusing Incidont occurred. A roong
the audience there were two ladies of more
rusticity than experience in the amusement
line. They were from Iheunpaved portions
of the country, and had belure the war
owned slaves, who, had since disappear d
as ball and tayonet made history in the
Ireedom iriC '. The ladies were evident
ly mother and daughter, or aunt and niece
we know not which. The naturalness of
their simplicity was refreshing to say the
least.
.No sooner bad the performance commenc
ed than the two ladies in question com
menced a whispered conversation in regard
to the dramatis pereonic.
'-La roe that does look so much like our
Jake," said the younger of the two,refvrriDg
to the one on the right.
"Yes, and It Is our Jake," said the elder,
adjusting her gln'ses.
-We, I, I'll declare, and that a thewiddow
Williamson's Sam, too," said the vtber
closely eyeing Harry Robinson.
"Ain t he stuck up, though?' said the
other. .
'Yes. andvthata what they've done;
they've gone and edicatid thesj ut groes,
now- they . think they are powerlul smart,
so they do," sajd the mint.
'-Did you evert'' said niece. "Heap bet
ter be back in the corn-Held, so tbey bad.'i
said aunt, looking aiotind in nmnz-ment
that any one should be amused. Satisfied
that one was ''our Jack" and another
'Sam' and that thu whole troupe was com
posed of real negroes, the .two ladies left
f eling willing to wring the necks ef "Abo
lisbioneis" generally, and the ones that
trained "Jake" and "Sam" io particular.
' Tuk Poou or ficw Yokk Hood's
"Song of a Shirt" comes forcibly to mind
as We read these note frour the "short mid
and simple annals of the poor," tn New
York city: Mrs. A. make vesta at eigh
teen cents a piece for a wholesale house.
She can earn $8 a mouth by working four
teen hour a day, including Sundays. She
pays $3 a month for her attic, and has two
small children to support. She has
eaten meat once only aud tboj it was
given to her siuce tbauksgiving Day.
Another case: Kate A., a "iiuiiber" of fine
shirls, makes about $2 a week, working
bsrd for It. She has a grandmother to sup
pert.and "hue often lived for weeks on-bread
and water, in ore'er .to afford the old wo
man a little broth every day." The New
York Star,, which is enabled to describe
these cases from the diary or a lady who
has visited them, gives still more painful
instances of the hardship caused by scarci
ty of employment or inadequate Wages.
The German Arctio Expedition Com
mittee have sent to Capt: Hall a letter re
questing him to furnish theuj with a report ol
bis'receut exploratons In tbo Arctic regions
and sketching the programmeof theexpedi
tion sent out by Ibe Germans last Jane.
The ships are provisioned for two years.
''The plan is to reach the eastern coast of
Greenland this year, and during the next
summer to go a far north as possible, either
by land or water. The ships were seen last
on the 1st or Aug. in latitude 73 north and
longitude 16 west ol Greenwich. Accord
ing to the account received from whalers
cruising in Itue regions at that time we
have reason to believe that our ships will

which surround the eastern coast or Green
land, so that after a wintering tbo expedi
tion may have a good chance of exploring
these unknown legions farther north than
baa over been reached by any one before.''
Capt. Hall is requested to take letters to
tbo expedition if be Btarts In the spring us
be intend.
