Different would be the case, were every man permitted to employ his little capital and industry in this kind of traffic. Again: Do away with the prohibition to by in market hours to sell again.

I have never seen any difference in the made by the farmer and that made bythe huckster. In- deed, in many instances, market stuffs are pur- chased cheaper from the latter. I look upon the huckster as a public benefactor, and I cannot see how we could get along without them in our markets, and am decid in favor of their hav- ing the largest liberty, and with that view, urge the repeal of the license imposed on them by our Corporation.

Commitrsp —Yesterday, Charles Curtis, an em- tts of the late show company which was ex- ibiting on Ninth street, opposite the Center Market, appeared before Justice Donn to answer to a charge of assault and battery on Mrs. Hassen- meyer, the proprietress of the lodging-house where the company boarded, Curtis was one of the plaintiffs in the cases which resulted in the dissolution of the concern, and Saturday night, after the performance in tue tent, the officer who had the property in custody sent Curtis to get the quilts be was accustomed to use in sleeping in the tent. Curtis went to get them, and the lady dis- puted his right to take the quilts and claimed the one he took hold of as her property. A scuffle ensued, in which it was shown. by the evidence, that Curtis, while Mrs. H. bad bin by the hair, struck her in the side. The result was that Mrs. H., who was in a delicate condition at the time, has since been seriously ill. Curtis was com- mitted to jail. Ovp Fetirows’ HaLt.—Our citizens have no idea of the wonderful talent displayed by the “Holman Troupe,” now giving entertainmentazs above. Those tiny little crea‘ures, Sallie and Julia, are wonderful specimens of pri ity.

Altogether, we Lave never seen anything them, and well may their tents point to them with pride. The bays, Alfred and jamin, too, have been tutored in a good histrionic school. Take it all in all, it is an en- tertainment that must please every one. Our citi- zens must bear in mind that this troupe only re- mains for three nixhts. A matinee will be given on Wednesday, at 3 o’clock, for the accommoda- tion of ladies and children. ALexanpnia ITzMs.—Rev. C. B.
