That's in Chestnut street, number one thousand and six, The ball is next door and that's easy to fix. Upon you're going with us indeed we are bent; Your dress, you know, Grandma, won't cost yon a cent; You can wear your new cap, and your frilly lace • collar, And the tickets for three will cost only one dollar. Now listen, dear Grandmamma, ^whilst I explain, If you should go with no, or even nurse Jane, They don't ask any more than it we w"nt alone, For they let in two children and one person grown To take careat them'there, for a dollar, you see, And its fifty cents each for lust Willie and me.

And of course you know, Grandmamma, we will be there. You say we're too small to do much more than play, And, so our poOr soldiers we'll help in that way; And whenever we meet with a poor wounded Man We are anxious to do for him all that we can.

Encouraged by the stu‘e.esa 01 la ': winter, the gentlemen in charge of lie 9 ''' Anaus e merits" to he given for the benefit of ,lle (-Irrea Central Fair, have had the Reading Roo. 'n com pletely refitted, and those who were so fon' unata as to have secured tickets of admission for last evening found that it had been converted into o." cf the - most charming and complete little theatres . imaginable. As it stands, it has cost almsst nothing, as every one called upon has contributed materials or labor "without, money and without price. " The drop.curtain, painted by Mr. Rus sell smith, is one of the happiest efforts of that admirable artist, while ; thesoc ener;,. contributed by him and Messrs. Wiser Berger, will compare favorably with that of i Rosedale." Three com panies have been organized to appear at this. y - theatre, and a series of entertainments will be given which will extend over several weeks. Last even ing Goldsmith's comedy of She Stoups to Con7ufr Ink, produced. The performers are all well Known in fashionable life, and the personal interest attach ing to their attempt was naturally great; but the excellence of their acting was such that they could have safely relied upon the intrinsic merit of their effort It - would generally be invidious to allude to individuals in connection with such an enter. tainment, but we are sure that the other members of the company will agree with is in thinking that it would be unjust to make no allusion to the Miss Hardcastle and Miss rievilf , e of the evening— more than an allusion we have, perhaps. no right to make. As / the performance will be repeated on Thursday evening of week after next, for. the pre. sent we refrain from saying more. On Saturday evening there will be an exhibition of tableaus, and on next Tuesday evening Die litre/taut of Venice will be presented by another ' company. We believe that the time is not yet fixed for the first attempt of the third company; but Scribe's bnlliant comedy of The Royalist is in rehearsal by them. The receipts of last evening will be considerably over five hundred dollars, which will be handed over to the Fair, without any other deduction than for the trifling expenses connected with lighting the building and keeping it in order.

A very large number were also conveyed in ambulances to Jarvis General Hospital, while the remainder, some two hundred, were sent to Patterson Park Hospital.

CITY, It 0.. -April 15, 1664. —Olt last Tuesday night, the lath inst., the notorious bushwhacking ganirof Shumate and Clark went to the'house of an industrious, hard workirg Ger man tanner named Kuntz, whe lives some twenty five to thirty miles from the month of Osage river, and demanded his money. Ennis had saved soma money for the express purpose of sending for his family to come aver from the old country to his new home. He stonily denied having any cash, but the fiends not believing him, or per,baps knowing that he did have some money, deliberately took down a. wood saw, which was hanging up in the cabin, and cut his left leg three times. below and four. times above the knee, with -the saw. Loss of blood, pain and agony, made the poor-fellow in sensible and he was unable to tell 'where themeney was concealed. His maagled body was found: next day, life extinct. A boy who lived with him. silent ded in making his escape terror stricken, to give the alarm. After leaving Kuntz's' the gang went to an adjoining American farmer, whose name I was unable to learn, and not suc ceeding in their demands for money they destroyed everything in and about -the place, took the - man. out and literally cut his head off. All of this la vouchethfor by the whole neighborhood. COURTS. Dis•rntcr Cornr—Judge Hare.—Anna 31:Smith VS. Lucas Mist. This was an action to recover damages for loss, alleged to have been suffered through the wrongful conduct 'of .defendant, as counsel for plaintiff. In 1560, the plaintiff held a judgment note for IWO which defendant repre sent, d to be good, but which defendant subse quently recommended to be substituted for a bet ter and more valuable_ security. suggested a.. bond and mortgage, and Mrs. Smith, through her son as her agent, assented, and the mortgage wee executed through one Charles B. Nndd and the judgment note was given as part of the considers don. At the time of the transaction, it is alleged. that the defendant represented that he had made the proper searches and found that the property was unincumbered and that it was good market able real estate. It is now alleged that the mort gage was worthless and 'valueless, and the mort gagor had no right, title, interest, or estate in the lands. and she now complains that through the representations of defendant she was a great loser. The defence deny these allegations of misrepre- Sentatlon. It was averred that the judgment note. which plaintiff represented as worth $6OO was not. worth anything; that it was known to be worth less, and that Mrs. Smith's son, the alleged real owner of the mortgage, was fully aware of the. nature of the transfer and the value of the mort gage.
