Steamer Adolph! Loonlng to

In reading the article in the last issue
of the Gazette relative to the manage-
ment and speed of the Adelphi of late.
we think that credit should be placed to
whom it is due. We have often noticed
the strict attention given to the engine
apartment by the new man, whom the
compsny have been so fortunate as to
select in Mr. Guyer. who took the po-
sition the first of this season. He is up-
piirently of a very retired disposition,
and very attentive to his business, al-
ways at his post. which in our opinion
accounts for the excellent time made.
and shows, as we have always consider-
edthe Adelphi to be a very fast boat,
and admirably adapted for our route,
and it. would be a very difficult task to
replace her with anything better, morn
particularly in speed; and at the same
time being ii very comfortsbldbost to ride
on: is very free from of jar or noise from
the engine. The only thing the travel-
ing public can hove against the Adelphi is
on account of her misfortune in 1878,
while leaving our harbor on the morning
of October 28th, since which time the
Adelplii has been put ti“ excellent con-
dition, with an extra heavy boiler and
such attention paid to her mschinery.
which now puts her among the clinic of

PATIENCE.
The Dsnbury “Patience Company"
will appear at the Opera HousinNorwslk
next Mondsy evening. The Dsnbury
News in speaking of the opera and per-
formers says:—-“Tlierc are many pretty
songs and much concerted music, and
the dialogues overflow with irresisti-
bly funny reflections, wathetic sayings.
etc. The play was rendered by the com-
pany in it highly creditable manner and
evinced much painstaking practice and
an artistic interpretation of the various
characters.
Mr. J. Clarence Harvey in the role of
Archibald Gmsveuor, an idylic poet,
was insthetically picturesque, with flue
poetical breadth of dignity and bearing,
and in hiauiukc-up looked the part to
perfection. Ilia almost cunnterpurtJtegi-
nald Bunthorne, fl fit-shyly poet, as im-
pcrsonatcd by Mr. F. L. Butler, was
made ii living character. He divested
the part of all lackadaisical ideas and
gavoitn spirited “setting“ with much
taste. and skill. Miss Currie Allen as the
capricious and coy coquette. Patience
was graceful and pleasing. There is
considerable breadth to her voice and s
sweetness in every note she utters. The
character of Lady Jane, one of the rap-
turous maidens, was given sprominence
by Miss Mamie lloyt that was not only
pleasing but very forcible where the
deeper intensity of passion was called
for. Mrs. l“. L. Butler as Lady Ange~
liiia gave the character an excellent im-
personation and was intensely pathetic.
Miss Julie Stebbins as Lady Saphir. and
Miss Belle Watson as Lady Ella, were
equally happy in their rendering. The
audience were almost constantly in ex-
pressions of applause, and the various
actors nil received their merited shore.
The play was richly and elegantly cos
tuiiied, and this added much to its pic.
turesqueness and msthetic cast.

Grocers can know but little of the

from epidemic cud other causes, they

Common soap has no beefs for merit
—Iscking in body, it quickly waste
sway, leaving nothing but the strong
slkslies and mineral substances which
compose cheap soup, u the only wash-
ing quslity of such goods, which at once
naturally rot. and destroys the texture
sud usefulness of fabric.
It is an actual fact that no ordinary
family will use more than ten dollars
worth of first-class soap in s year; sod,
while the difference caved to them by
buying 3 common soup would hardly be
three dollars, they lose in wear and ten
of dry goods more than ten times the
difference. Thinkingsss majority do
that fabrics are getting more and more

they will find they have deceived them-
