Secretary Robeson has directed that leave of absence be granted to clerks and employees of the Navy Department, and also of the Navy Yard, to go home to vote this month. Scarcity oF SMALL NoT@s.—The demand for five and ten dollar notes at the Treasury Depertment is rapidly increasing, but Treasu- rer Spinner 1s unable to meet the same on ac- count of the failure of the Bank Note printing companies in New York to forward to the De- partment a supply of the new issue, not gle note havirg yet been received by the Treas- surer, In New York, Boston, and other large cities the scarcity of small notes is haying a @ very disastrous effect upon business, and especially the retail trade. Complaints are daily received from the disbursing officers of the Government in those cities caused by the ‘want of small notes, but nothing can be done torelieve them. This ali results from remoy- ing the printing of the legal tender notes from the Treasury Depariment to the New York Bank Note companies, where the work upon it was retarded by the strike. —_-<+e-—___. -THE Mississirr!

Business men complain severely of the dull times, owing to the stringency of the money market.

The theaters don’t indicate “hard times,” and at the California” crowds are attracted nightly to see for themselves how much truth there is in the reported immorality of “Formosa.” It is handsomely mounted, and the company ranks No. 1 with any stock troupe in the United ‘States—on the whole the performance is worth seeing. The “Red Stockings” are at Sacra- mento‘ and will arrive here to-night, playing their first game on Saturday next. lively interest will be taken im the performance ot the champion ballists, but nothing to compare to the excitement to see such players in the East. ‘The races are in full biast and well attendea, but no borse has yet made better time than is claimed for every livery horse in the city.

The evidence showed that during the recess of the school which they attended, the boys were “skylarking” on the stairs, in the course of which Freeman threw Ricker so violently that he fell upon some hooks in the wall. one of which en- tcred bis neck and did him so much injury that he has pever recovered from the effects or it. The damages were laid at $5,000, aud the action bas been deferred till this late day when the parties became of age. The jury rendered a verdict for the plaintiff and gave him dam. ages to the amount of $3,250. No malice was imputed to the defendant, but the act tor which he is made to pay so smartly was the result of the rough play im which schoo! boys fre- quently indulge. —Concord. N. H., Patriot.
