'lt is a 'withal d congratulation with
our geople that they have here in the
heart of our busy, bustling city an insti
tution where young ladies are trained to
think for themselves, to think well and
deep, and to , give expression to their
thoughts in language, pare, beautiful
and* concise. It``is pleasant to know
while the great processes of mechr,n
ism, art and science go on in the
diegy workshops unceasingly, ant
swarthy, muscular men advance
steadily in their _ useful knowledge,
that bid away from the outer world, and
yet within hearing of the music of in
dustry, the minds of timid maidens, fu
ture wives and mothers, are being care
fully directed into proper channels and
so elev ated, shaped and moulded as to
render their possessors honorable and
useful members of the sothety, they are
destined to adorn. Those who were for
tunate enough to be present at the =-
anal essay contest% of. the Pittsburgh
Female College last evening, and
drank in the noble thoughts
and • sentiments framed by clear
heads and gushing from pure lind
guileless hearts, must have felt prouder
than ever of our city since nestles in its
soothegrimed bosom an institution ca
pable of imparting such education to the
young and innocent, and of laying the
foundation for lives of usefulness and.
virtue. The Essay Contests of the past
have ever drawn iorth mental offerings
of high order from the pupils, and have
been occasions highly enjoyable by edu
cated people, and it was therefore not
surprising that , the elegant College
Chapel was honored last night with an
assemblage conspicuous for culture and
refinement. -
The exercises were opened with a bril
liant instrumental duet by Misses Alex
ander and Kimball, after which was ad
dressed to the Throne of Grace an elo
quent and fervent prayer by Rev. W. B.
Locke. A vocal trio by the Misses Saw
yer and Miss Van Hook was rendered in
an artistic manner, the ladies develop
ing much power and brilliancy. The
first essay 4 God calls the workman
home, but still the work goes on," was
read in a clear; sweet voice by its author,
Miss Anna M. Lindsay. The audience
was struck with the depth of thought
and beauty of the composition and
awarddd the gifted young lady ear- .
nest applause. The subject, , pretty
and poeticitself, was handled
with marked propriety, the language was
elegant and arranged with admirable
good taste and precision. Perhapsit will
not be deemed invidious to say that the
essay exhibited in its construction and
depth more solid brain labor than any
offered. We secured the manuscript,
intending to lay it before our readers,
but its length deprives them of that Udel
-1 lectual pleasure. Miss Lindsay is gifted
with noordb3ary talent, end'will make
her mark high lathe field of literature if
shehas the perseveranceto go forward.
Next Miss Emma Sawyer favored the
audience with a vocal gem, in Italian,
from the (Vera of Martha. acquitting-her
' self with decided credit. Miss A. Dick
-1 son read a biographical sketch of Goethe,
I the German Poet, in which she exhibi
ted keen research and fall knowledge
of character. The closing part of her es
say was vigorously worded - , full of har
monious sentences and at times brilliant
and omexkling., Miss E. Kimball offered
a piano solo, which was raptur
ously- received and displayed the high
musical attainments of the young lady.
She was followed in an operatic gem by
Miss M. IVAdullen, a very young lady
with a marvellously powerful voice.
which she' has under good' controrand
fine cultivation. "Earth and its beau
ties" were ably discussed in Mire M.
'Duff's essay. Her sentiments were fresh,
well expressed and correctly ar
ranged, 'and altogether the essay was
worthy' the applause it reeeived. An
other vocal gem was rendered by Miss
E. Sawyer, atter which a classical instill,
mental performance on organ and piano
wee rendered by Mr. and Min. Blesther,
wile ' preside over .the Department of
Miele of the College. It was a grand in
terpretation worthy the high' musical
jo
reputation enyed b the performers ,
not only here at home y
but throughout
the entire country. The next essay was
offered by by Mite IL Patterson, whose
powers of elocution are very superior.
The essay was well writtten and ' heauti
ltd. It abounded in truths well told and
( werenot impressed with the lofty ideas
ever' and anon latinched forth by the
skillful young writer. Miss E. Kimball
sang Matilda Toots in , a • manner so
clever as to convulse the audience with
laughter, notwithstanding the cold
and fearful predicament the fair
Matilda Toots, with her four but
toned boots, was in, during the better
portion of the song. Miss Kimball in
rendering comic song is at home, and
with an interreter to sinher dis-
tress such
Matilda Toots p and her bo ots wduld
rapidly grow famous. The ckeingessay,
oiLlie " was from the smooth gliding
'pen and active brain of Miss U. Flem
ing. Her lessoning was clear and con-
elusive, and - her style concise and ele
gant.- Her essay denoted a mind well
stored with knowledge and a thcir
ough acquaintance with, philosophical
'matters and insight into the mysteries
of science: 'A ; sprightly instrumental
duet by Misses Darrah and Bowman
concluded the enWtainment. The
judges retired and after a half hour's con
sultatioh • returned with a sealed ver
'did in _favor of Miss Fleming, but
highly complimented . 'the', efforts of
all the other- centestants, asserting that
they had 'experienced much trouble in
&terming supailority where all had so
nobly aegiiitted themselves. The prize,
an elegant resenood writing desk, was
then formallY Presented to the fortunate
contestant in a brief speech by Rev. W.
H. Locke, the lady receiving it with a -
graceful bow of acknowledgmeat.

On the Boards Again.
It affords us pleasure to announce the
recovery of Mr.giV. C. Smythe, Manager
of the American Theatre, who it will be
remembered has for several weeks past
been confined to his room in consequence
of a gunshot wound in the leg. Mr.
Smythe is a model manager,and through
his enterprise and liberality - we can now
boast of a first-class' varieties entertain
ment, a want long felt but vainly wished
for in this city, until the present season.
The circumstances under which Mr.
Smythe accepted the management of the
American were by no means flattering,
but by careful management and a judi
cious expenditure of money, his deter
mination to give to the public a varieties
entertainnient second to none in the
country, has been accomplished, and he
is now receiving that remuneration
which is sure to reward the generous
and liberal manager of amusements in
this city. Mr. Smythe will appear for
the first time since he was injured at the
American, as Gilbert, in , the two act
drama entitled '"The Midnight Murder."
The Railroad Nuisance.
A special meeting of the Committee on
Railroads was held last evening to con
sider the matter referred to that Commit
tee at a recent meeting of Councils rela
tive to the nuisance which is said to (+alit
in the Ninth, Tenth and Tivelfth wards,
along the line of the Alleghenyllailroad,
in consequence of said Company neglect
ing to comply with the ordinance pro
hibiting the use of bituminous coal se
fuel for engines, within the city limits.
A number of witnesses were examined
and the Committee found that the nub!,
ance complained of did exist, and rec
ommended ;the parties petitioning to
Councils to have it abated to Proceed
agatnst the Company under existing or
dinances relative thereto, which are
deemed attaply sufficient for their proteo
tion.
The ordinance referred to requires all
railroad oompanies to use coke or hard
coal in their engines within the city lim
its, and imposes a penalty or fifty dol
-1 lars for each and every violation thereof.

The approaCh of spring sets all to be
stir themselves into new activity, and
while housekeepers will allot themselves
much work W do cleaning, renovating
and repairirig, merchants and dealers
will arrange their' plans for a general
painting up, remodeling and improving
of their stores and shops. Judging of
the coming season by those in the past,
thefts will be much painting done, and
we feel that it will be assisting our read
ers to make selection of a capable and
painstaking painter by advancing a few
wordiabout Mr. John V Gray, No. 64
North street, late Hand street. The high
many
reputation Whic h this gentleman has en
joyed for any years as an artistic and
finished lib se and sign painter, is suffi
cient guarantee of his proficiency.
Some of the finest painting • and
graining in the city bear his im
print, which is by all ,judges of
the art taken as evidence of supe
riority. Mr. Gray keeps none but
the most careful, steady and experienced
mechanics in his employ, and personally
superintends all work entrusted to him.
By using the very best paints, oils and
varnishes he is enabled to make his work
durable, and satisfactory in point of ex
cellence and finish. His rates are not
cheap, but are reasonable, as he prefers
doing work well or not at all, rather than
to derive his profits by imposing on pa
trons Inferior jobs with bad materials.
Sign painting, lettering and glazing are
made specialities, and those having .such
work to award cannot bestow it upon any
person in the business who will perform
it in better style. We have bad dealings
with Mr. Gray, and can commend him to
our readers as honorable and upright in
all his transactions.
A company is forming, for which ai
charter has been asked of the Legislat,
ture, and no doubt will be granted, to;
purchase lands in the West and to assist
each stockholder who emigratei to im
prove his lands. We look upon the com
pany and the manner in which they pre.
pose to operate as highly • commendable
and one of the best things that could be
done by the, mechanic, or laborer, who
can save from their limited incomes a
small amount each week or month and
invest it in the above, company. There
can be no loss in he investment, as
Western lands will always be improving
in price, and the better locations will
double or treble in a short time. They
propose buying their lands in bulk and
subdivide as will best subserve the in
terests of the stockholders. But we can
only refer those interested to Louis Roll
or Alderman Mays,of the Eleventh ward.
We have received from Mr. Simon
'Johnston, the well-known druggist, cor
ner Fourth avenue and Smithfield street,
a number of specimens of very fine toilet
soaps, which het imports directly from
Europe. and is sole agent for the manu
facturers in this •city. Th Glycerine
toilet soap and the Skin soap sre remark
ably fine and should find their way
into every household where - toilet arti
cles are considered of importance. The
first soap mentioned contains4o per cent.
pure glycerine, deriving therefrom
soothing qualities, softening the skin
and preventing chapping and unpleasant
roughness. As a shaving.soar) it is with
out equal, Mr. Johaston keeps a splen.;
