Have had for a year pasta rather hard time
of it. The city officials got a spasm of vir-
the, and where the odlcers on the beat were
not properly “ seen,” they were liable to
constant " pulling". Pardon the technicali-
. ties. . But the gamblers have at last silenced
the guardians of the law,and they are going
on as usual. 01 first-class gambling house

The establishment is knewn among sports
as a “Club House." Externally, it is a quiet,
rather elegant house, that tho passer-by
would suppose to be the. dwelling of some
reputablcpwell to-do citizen. You ascend
the: flight of steps-éthe'outer hall. door is
open, and you ring. You noticethatgiufthcj
inner halhdoor is a wicket. This Wicket flies
open and a gentlemanlyanegrolsfaceappears.
If you are known you are admitted without
ceremony; ifnct, a card orireferenec’is re-
quired. Entering the,_ha_ll,,you :fi'ndltt the
-. end of it a reception .room,.gorgeously fur-
nished. There is' _an elegant side-board on
which stands bottlesof every possible varic-
ty of liquors, which are free. to all visitors.
Nay more, if you desire a mixed drink an;
obliging waiter stands: ready to inix’them
for— you. You need-have no hesitation of
partaking; the more youzdriuk’ the better.
the proprietors are pleased! in what in any,

merchants in a small' way and. merchants in:
a large way, bank clerks, speculators, com-
mercial and ,_uncommercia_l travelers, rail-I
road runners, street-car 'cbnductors, mer-
chants, clerks and contractors seated side by,
side eagerly watching the turn of the cards,
The proprietor of the house mixes with‘his,
guests in an easy, pleasant way, congratula-.
ting the winners of his money, and saying
pleasautthings to the losers! the latter.ser-;
vice. being th'e most onerous. - .;
At mid-nightprecisiely the game closes for,
supper. A magnificent supper room 15}
thrown open and everybody is invited to enkg
ter. And. such a supper! John Chamber-,
lin pays his head cook $5,000 per annum,-
and the servants are of the best possible
class. The table absolutely groans'under its
load of delicacies. If there is a’tlsh- that it
particularly rare—worth say, 31,50 per;
pound—you may be sure of seeing it on the
table name at no matter what cost ; dishes .
such as a Roman Emperor would have mort-
gaged a province for, are as eammon as pos-
sible, and wines, bless me! Delmonico nev-
er had such—for the public at least. And
all this absolutely free! .Mauy well-known
‘gourmands whodo'uot play, frequent these
houses, and Iisk'tltl or $20 just for an ex-
cuse to stay at supper.
But as lavish as is this expenditure for en-
tertainment the business is wonderfully
profitable. o'l‘lie bank his about six'chances

merest wrecks. The laws of nature are in-

THE CENTENNIAL.
A committee of Philadelphiaus are in the
city now, eudeavoring to get up some inter-
est in the great exposition which is to be
held in Philadelphia in 1870, commemo-
rating the Ccnteunial of American Independ-
ence. New. York has regarded this great
enterprise, unfnvorably, probably from the
little jealousy that always exists between
great cities that are so near each other.
But the committee succeeded in removing
the feeling, and New York will join heart!-
I y with Philadelphiaiu making the Centen-
nial the greatest and ' grandest occasion the
world ever saw. The Exposition will open
in April and continue till October. The
buildings will be on a scale of magnitude
never before attempted, and all the coun-
tries in the world are invited to show there-
in their best work. What an occasion it
will be! The Nation will be an hundred
years old. The thirteen sparsely settled
colonies arenow almost three times that
number. One hundred years ago we had
no manufactures; now we compete in the
markets of the world with the older peo-
‘ples. In Philadelphia, where American lib-
erty drew its first breath, the people of this
country will meet, in friendly rivalry, the
worll. England will have on exhibition
the results of her, “divcrsified industry.
France, Belgium, Germauyrand the Oriental
countries will allrpnrtfcipgtc. ; The Ameri-
can who does not.wls;lt_‘thin'greot enterprise
all success is not‘gyioftks‘éof his birthright.
The funds necehsaryircibeiug raised part-
I y by the state ofPennsy-i'vauia, partly by the
city of Philadelphia audits citizens, and by
subscription to its capital stock. The shares
havebeen put-by Congress at .10, and are
being rapidly taken, as- they should be.
Frederick Fralcy, 004'Walnut 'St.,‘Philadelo
phia, is the Treasurer. Speaking of the
Exposition, the first sewing machine ever
made in this. country is now, I believe, in

other criminal, that he shall be shoved into

Gordon W. Burnham, of the firm of
Benedict & Burnham, Waterbury, has od'cr-

Daniel Webster. if the park commissioners
will accept his conditions. The statue is to
be of bronze on a granite pedestal, and
cost about $30,000. The condition of the

got out of". . .
' At Big CreekpArkansas, they have a
peculiar fashion which sometimes proves
embarrassing. As there is no preacher
within thirty miles, the way for marrying
is kissing across a table. Recently a New
York drummer was out there. He put up
at a private house, and became quite inti-
mate. One evening he was fooling around
one of the girls, trying her sweet temper,
when she gave his whiskers a pull and run,
He followed. She got the table between
them. He chased her around it several
times. When out of breath he stopped on
the other side, made a wild plunge, caught
her» in his arms and gave her a hearty kiss.
She then sat. down on the sofa and they
talked pleasantly for a couple of hours—he
thinking it singular that she should sit up
85 late.
At last she said, “Don’t you think itaboui
time we went to bed ‘3"
“I guess you are right,” he remarked,
“let’s go.” -
She lit a candle, and he was about to do
the same, when she said, “I reckon one’s
”enough. One candle will light two folks
to bed."
“Undoubtedly it would, when those two
people occupy the same room. But your
candle w'on't illuminate my chamber."
“Ain't we going to occupy the some
room ? Ain‘t w'c married?”
“Ain‘t we what i” shouted the gentleman.
-“Married! Didn’t you kiss me across the
table? That married us.”
Acold sweat spread over the drummer.
He knew that if he said he wasn’t married
to her she would make an outcry, and then
her loving and much-tobaccooonsuming
father would arise in. his wrath and carve
him into cutlets, and her brothers would
bringdown their shot-guns and empty {the
contents into him. He must be strate-
gic. He must put her off. So he said .
‘fFairest of your sex, permit me to re-
mark'that I did not know that kissing
across ‘he table constituted a marriage
ceremony. ButIam content. Ihave never
seen one who so completely filled my idea
of a beautiful, sweet, loving and modest
woman.- However, I never think of hold-
ing on to this marriage until I had asked
the permission of your father to pay my
addresses to you. To-morrow, at dinner,
when the entire family are preseht, I will
propose for your fair hand.”
, This satisfied the lady, and, after bestow-
Ing upon him’ a fervent kiss, she went to her
room and he went to his. He packed his
carpet-bag, took 00‘ his boois, and made
tracks for the nearest railroad station. He
didn’t feel entirely safe until he had reached
St. Louis. He hasn’t informed his wife of
write out to Arkansas for the facts in the
bigalny. Women won’t sometimes listen to
reason you know.
It is only by labor that- thought can be
made healthy, and only by thought that la:-
bor can be made happy. '
They were going to put a man out of a
San Francisco theater for creating a disturb-
ance, when a voice cried, "He’s all right,
he’s killed a Chinaman !" and they let the
man alone. . -

THE “ BARTRAM.”
The Bartram Sewing Machineis thelatcst prodnc
tlou of inventive genius. It has the
. Simplicity
of the Wilcox J: Gibbs’, but makes thelock-stitch
with a revolving shuttle, which, revolving on its
carrier, is subject to no wear, and requires no oillnz
by which the thread would otherwise be soiled; and
the wear and friction of a "race" is avoided. This
style ofshnttlemoves withgreater
Rapid/ivy
and ease of operation makingone-thirdmoreatitches
with the same motion of the foot, than any other
- machine,
1 .
. Ease. _
Iris the casiéstrunnlniz of the family of Sewing
Machines. Delicate’ladics who cannot use others
can operate the Bartram with out fatigue.
Best Needle.
It has the best needle in the world—short and
straight with a flat shank. By simply putting it up
in the needle bar as far as it: will go. it is set right
and never has to be varied for thick or thin goods.
Durability.
It is, *hontqncstibn, the most durable machine
In the market, as it is so simply constructed (having
but five working parts), that friction is reduced to
the lowest poss ble degree. All the wearing parts
are made of thgfinest steel, and hesntifuilytlnlshed.
General Efi‘lcéency.
The inventor, (Mr. W. B. Bartram,\ has kept one
Important feature in view, viz., that it should be so
constructed as not to limit its usefulness to lany
specialty of work, but to be adapted to both light
and heavy sewing equally well.
. __ . _
_ We Joe/vote
the public to call at the agency and examine this
new and wonderful Machine, and allow the agent to
prove all and more than we have said of the merits
of the “ Barman.”
