CITY BMJLETIIS.
Chowdkb. —The weather clerk to-day is in a
pet. He this morning sent a snow of half an
hour’s duration that equalled in volume-any
snow-fall of the season. He then tantalized
us with a full-orbed glimpse of a golden sun
He then ordered up his water-pot, and spread
himself in a malicious He then
peppered us with more snow. He is doing so
still. His perversity gives us.no surprise. We
felt it coming through the premonition of a
set of corns that never lie. Barometers may
be very valuable. In the integrity of the
honest old ache in our left boot is as little
discount as in the best thermometer in Me Al
lister’s store. , . ..
Business in Chestnut street is again moving
westward. The demolition of residences 80.
1410 and 1418 Chestnut street was this morn
ing commenced. In their stead will arise two
stSelv stores. Not many years ago Mr. James
Kerr was derided for building China Hall op
posite the State House. The then inhabitants
looked upon the enterprise as building “ too
fftr out of town.” The only trouble is that
Wm. Penn didn’t foresee what was to bo the
growth of the city, and so. lay out Chestnut
street that its architectural beauties- could be
scrutinized without the danger of twisting off
one’s neck. , ‘ . T „.
The summer course ot lectures at Jenersou
Medical College was inaugurated at noon to
day by the opening lecture of the junior Pro
feasor Gross—a young gentleman who already
shares the mantle of his father. If any doctor
can earn fifty dollars by smiling at a broken
ankle or shaking his head over a fractured
knee-pan, that Doctor is Prof. S. W. Gross. In
the prescriptions of a medical man . whose
mere presence is a palliative to the pangs ot a
patient, there can’t certainly be lack of efficacy.
We this morning enjoyed a distinguished
compliment. One lady pointed out the writer
to the other, sotto voce, as the “ Chowder man
of the Evening Bulletin.” The lady was as
beautiful as any Houri that ever inspired the
dreamtof a Mussulman. We’d willingly give
a week’s revenue for the privilege of changing
places with her breastpin.
Many years ago two business signs 'on t rout
street stores read respectively “ James Schott,”
. “ Jonathan Fell.” “ James shot and Jonathan
fell” was a smile-provoking reading in that
day. well remembered by many who read this
now. Mr. Fell was some years since gathered
to his fathers. The useful ami honorable life
of Mr. Schott lias passed its Kdtli year. .It is
unruffled hv a single cloud. A truer heart,
than his never yet pulsed in human breast.
He was tlielirst President of the Girard Bank.
Ho retired, leaving the capital whole, and a
surplus of about half a million.
Rev. Dr. Wadsworth said, lftst night,that he
was in favor of congregational singing, pro
vided a congregation ‘-knew how to sing.”
What lie didn’t like was to hear niusic.from a
people in which every man .selects his own
tune. The sermon in which he made this re
mark was upon the subject of the organ. The
instrument was “wetted” on the week before.
What Dr. Wadsworth wants is either the host
singing or none at all.
Monumental Akt.-Laurel Hill is,' per
imps, the handsomest place of burial in the
country. The grounds are in a beautiful log.l.
tion and are tastefully laid out. In the way
of handsome tombstones and large and im
posing monuments it, can scarcely he sur
passed. Inabhort time the monument to be
. erected to the memory of the late Mathias W.
Baldwin will he placed in position there. It
■was executed at the marble works of Struthers
& Son, No. 1022 Market street, and is now re
ceiving the finishing touches. It will be the
largest monument in Laurel Hill, and in
beauty and workmanship none there now will
surpass it. It is cut out of Manchester marble,
in the Boric stylo of architecture, and will
stand thirty-three feet high. The die is highly
ornamental and beautifully carved. The en
tire work Is one of which Philadelphia may
justly feel proud.
At the same establishment, a beautiful tablet
intended for the adornment of the grave of
Bov. James Giiborne Lyons has just: been
completed. The design is novel, and one not
often seen in this country. The tablet is of
l>ove marble,whichisiulaid withmosaic work
on brass #half inch in thickness. Upon the
latter the name, age. &c., of the deceased are
inscribed. The workTias been well executed,
' arid has been greatly admired by all who have
Be jfor the Philadelphia Lincoln Monument,
designed by Mr. Kandolph ltogers, and now
■being cast in Munich, the base is now in prm
grebs at the works of Struthers & Son. It is
of Quincy • granite, and will be eight feet
square and ten feet thick. The sides are
highly polished. The front one bears the in
scription—“ To Abraham Lincoln, from a
Grateful People.” Each of the other three lias
upon it an appropriate motto, selected from
the messages of the martyred President. But
little work remains to he done on the base,and
it will he ready to he placed in position as
soon as the statue arrives.
In addition to the works mentioned, there
■are now being, executed at the same establish
ment, a number of small but neat and hand
vouic mantel ornaments of unique design, in
i ended for the mansion of a gentleman well
jknowu for bis zealous eucouragiueut of Phila
delphia artists.

Om9cuabv.— Evgry opo who knew Mr.
Edwin N. Thayer will feel regret upon learn
ing that, at two o’clock this morning, that
estimable genUemafi breathed his last. He
died at his residence, No, 261 Madison street,
with the tranquillity of infancy, and in lull
possession of all his faculties.
Ho was born in the vicinity of Boston, and
had attained the age of 73 years. He received
a collegiate education. An appointment as
midshipman being offered to him, he acooptod
it, but the profession palled upon his tastes.
He relinquished it lor the stage. Aboht
the year 1835 the Old Bowery In New.
York was l so prosperous that a rival
establishment- was projected and com
pleted. V.- It was .then known .as the Franklin,
it is tho present Chatham Theatre, very. mate
rially enlarged. Here Mr. Thayer laid the
foundation of his reputation as an eccentric
comedian—a reputation that afterwards took
him to the Park Theatro, patronized by the
elite of that metropolis. In various theatnmn
this city lie wan a general favorite. H^refcirea
from tlie stage when tho Walnut Street Theatre
passed into the possession ot Messrs. Clarke
& Booth. Tho immediate cause of his death
was hemorrhage from tho viscera, of wlnoli
the attacks had been frequent for some years
past. He married the well-known actress,
Mrs. Fisher. He leaves three adult qjnlaren
to share with her the sorrow of the present be
reavement. Everybody who knew , Mr.
Thayer esteemed him. He was most loved
by those who best knew him. His life was
alike placid and blameless, and from his pew
at Grace Church (Bov. Doctor Suddards), of
which both himself and Mrs. Thayer were
members, neither was ever willingly absent.
With the annals of the stage his name will
long be lovingly linked; -
