Old-t'me English will not do justice the excellence of tbe musical entertain ment and the general ec jo. ment afford- by the Old Folks Concert at the Congre gational; Church last evening. The success of the concert was complete in all essential points, and the expressions of satisfaction to day from all who were so fortunate as to attend, give assurance that a rousing u-e will greet the men and women singers if they shall accede to the very general desire for a repetition in due season.

This remark applies particular to the "Easter Anthem." Another point to be noted is that the gem r-1 ap-p'ause of the old so- ga of real merit such as the anthem, "Strike the Cymbal" and The Dying Christian," was rather wetk, re pra se being given to "Cousin Jtdi- diah" than to all the other old-fashioned music. This was partly because it was ui. cal, nut also on account ot Mis Pt rkins' skill in the solo. A noteworthy lea lire ol theold time music was that Mrs. ker sang "counter" from a music ok i rl.

Council men's Criticisms. On Tuesday evening last the fficers of Eagle Hose Companies Numbers I and 2, held a special meeting at the Empiie House, to consider the resolution offered by Councilman Holloway and passed by the Council on Monday evening. I he resolution was a verbal one, the object of which was to discharge the drivers of the hose carts, providing any one but tbe drivers should be found on the carts while going to or from a fire. It wH be remembered that tbe Council passed this resolution without making any invest gallon or inquiring into the facts of the case, notwithstanding the Chief ot the Fire Department was present and stated that tbe carts were so constructed that it was absolutely necessary that two men should ride on the cart to balance it However, without arguing the question it would seem that at least three men should ride on the cart, to lay the ho when the scene of the fire is reached. For some time past the different organizations of the Fire Department hae been dissatisfied with- certain speech and remarks made in the Council, whii seemed to reflect on the Department as not doing, in all what tbe Council deemed to be the dutv of all well-regulated Are departments.

When the Holloway resolution was pass ed on Monday evening, and word of ihe action reached the Eagle Hose Company, they felt that, considering tbe tact that the company never receive any recular remuneratron for what they do, it was not just, oa the part of the Council, io wrongfully accuse one of their mi tnbers and threaten him with expulsion. For this reason the officers of Eagle Hose held a special meeting on Tuesday evening, at which time it was decided to let tbe mat ter rest until the regular meeting, which was held at tne rooms ot the company in Commerce block. At the meeting, last evening, nearly every member was present. The committee which had been appointed at the officers' meeting on the previous evening, to draft resolutions expressive of the 'eel-ingof the company in regard to the above mentioned action ot tne City Council, re ported as fellows To the Members of Eagle Hose Company Tour committee appointed to draft repolutti ns favoring the diibarding of the Eagle Hose Company, beg leave to report the following: WiiEBEas, We consider the action of thi' Akron City Council, in passing the Holloway resolution on Monday evening, jNovemocr uncalled lor and an insult to us as a company and Individual members, therefore be it Besolved.

The preamble and resolutions were unanimously adopted. A committee was afterwards appointed to present tbe so lution and letter to the President ot ti Council, which duty wa perlormed this morning. This action ot the Eagle Hose Compa ny is declared by the members to be ce cisive. After December 9, the city will be without the service of one of the best fire organizations in the State, and none will feel their loss so mucb as tnose who have received the benefits of their prompt services.

Odd Fellows' Meeting There was a grand outpouring of the brotherhood'Monday evening.on the occasion of anoffii ial visit from Hon idney Foos.

Drake and family, sid taking a fair share of enjoyment to themselves. Mr. C. G. Auble, 1 the firm i Auble, Brown Co and wif'p, residing ou Cen ter street, were pleasantly surprised last evening by a crowd of friends who com-pletely filled the house.

The tact that yesterday was the 27th anniversary of Mr and Mrs. Auble's married life may in a degree explain the gathei ing if last evening.

BLACK BEAR. Tells W. Litigations In announcing in Saturday's Bbacon Judge McClure's decision that morning in the Summit Common Pleas, adverse to the motion of the Bischoffsheim party to strike of the plaintiff's reply (the trustees off the consolidated mortgage being said plaintiff) and the Atlantic Great Western Railroad Company's answer to Bischoffshelm's clam against tne com pony, tere was only time to announce lor whom thedecis'an was given. Monday we had the pleasure of printing udge McClure's opinion in full, and it will be lound of interest, aside Ire in the maeni ude of the amounts in volved, ou account of its touching upon points, believed to be now passed upon bv an Ohio court for the first time, name ly, the right of a deltndant against whom a iMOHs-netition has been filed by a CO- defeudant to interpose as a defence there to matteis of sel-oll ana couuier-ciwiui.

Kailroad The fai ta ol the esse, as the brooeh out, are luily and clearly given by Judgej McClure in his opinion, to the preparation of which he gave elaborate care and research, and which is universally spok en of, among the mtmbers of the bar who heard it, as very able. THE NEXT MOVE will be the trial upon the merits of the case itselt, the $600,000 claim of Kischotf-sheim upon the road and the $2,500,000 claim of the road upon Bischoffsheim go ing before the Court together, the prob- eb'litynowis that this trial will take place belore ex Juf ge HeuDen mtcncock, ot Painesville, as Referee. It will occur as soon as ihe papers and proot can De prepared by the respeciive p-rties, a pro ceed ng whicn will require some ume.as the greater part of the testimony will have to be obtained in England.

Even this, though, will cause less, delay and cost than if Judge McClure's decision had been in favor of Bischoffsheim, for in that case the railroad company would have had to go to Loudon, in order to criyon a suit against him for the amount mat it Claims to oe owing irom niiu. A Hood tual Strike. The Franklin Coal Company, of this city, nas at length got fairly tnrougn a 'horse- back" in its mines, alongside oi which and through which it has been working for two years past, and is now entering upon a 4i toot vein of the finest coal ever mined in this vicini'y. A large specimen block now at the office of the Secretary, Mr. J.

J. Wagoner, is a marvel for purity, being so pure in color and so excellent in texture as to seem like a chunk of solid bitumen. The coal gives every promise of not only heing most excellently adapted to general manufacturing and to domestic uses, bit particularly of being entirely fittad for coking aud for iron making. As the present show is that their are 30 or 40 acres of this new "find," it is a lucky thing not only tor the company, but also tor the general interests ot the commu nity. The New Fence Company.

The art'cle in Wednesday's issue of the Ayus, concerning a new fence mnufac-turiutr film, whs incorrect in nearly every particular. The name of the firm just besinn'Dtr to manufacture a new iron lence at the i unction of Carroll and Ex change streets is not Van Dorn, Goodrich Parker, but Fralick, Parker Gutrig, the latter named gentleman Demg ine patentee or the fence in question. The firm is to be known as the Eagle Fence Company. The work was first begun on the patterns of the fence some two weeks ago, and in a short time the firm will be ready to turn out an entirely new style of malleable iron fence, of several differ ent styles, claimed bv tbe patentee to be stronger and better man any Kind Heretofore manufactured. The main feature of the fence is the double oval bar to which the pickets are fastened.

Graduates of tbe Akron High School. In the forthcoming report of the city sch ols it is desirable to present as full a history as possible ot the progress ot the schools. A complete list ot ail who nave graduated from the High School would be an interesting feature of such ahif-tory; but the incompleteness ot the early rec ords main it very difficult to obtain re liable intoimition. Ine object ot th's notice is to call upon all who have any knowledge of the lacts to report to me the names of any who have graduah frrm the High School prior to 1868, to gether with the time of their graduation and their present lesidence ana occupa tion. Any information which may enable me to obtain these facts will also be gladly received.

Any person having knowledge ot tbe whereabouts of any of the old records ot the Board ot Education will confer a favor by reporting the same. s. JVINDLEY, Superintendent City Schools. Empire Fence Works. The Empire Wrought Iron and Mal leable Fence Works of A.

ile nder, for merly at the corner of Carroll and Ex change streets, have been removed to the more accessible and commodious build ing near the deot just in tbe rear of the east end of J. Park Alexander's stoneware ware house. Mr. Bolender will 1 ereafter occupy this building until the increasing trade shall necessitate the building ot a larger shop, which will probably be the case before another year, as the orders for the Empire fence are rapidly coming in. Mr.

Bolender has just improved his fence, by the invention of an adjustable foundation and post which is so simple in its arrangement as to make it far preferable to the old style of post, which being once out of place, could not be cnanged without altering the entire fence. It is the intention of Mr. Bolender to exhibit his invention at the Centennial Exposition next year and thus add another to the already lare list of Akron rep resentatives. Assault Only. At the Court of Common Pleas, Jacob Taylor was tried yesterday before a jury for assaulting Lucinda Por ter with intent to kill.

An agreement is being circulated among the creditors of Barnes Bro. to release that firm from 75 per cent of their relesse, on condition that the remaining 2o per cent, sliould be paid in six months. The liabilities aggregate $125,000 and the assets are appraised at about and if torced to sale would bring at the two-thirds limit $30,000.

A number of parties have signed paper in question since it was started yesterday morning. nore Stone-Throwing. There is a gang of villains, big or little, near the Old Forge, who deserve a term in the county jail in order to bring them to a just respect for law and decency ua several occasions we have been called upon to record the throwing of stones at passing trams. at this point, and last evening tbe offense was repeated in a somewhat more aggravated torm. A 8 the 5:12 p.

Fortunately, no- one was injured, though there was quite a stampede tor a lew moments. The Last and Best. The last gtand re ception given by the Eagle Hose Compa ny, at menix llall last evening, was in every respect a decided success.

The decorations, a description of which was given in yesterday's Beacon, were one of the greatest attractions of the entertainment. The music was the best that could have been secured, and the "boys" did all in their power to make it pleasant and agreeable for their guests. Many participated in the dancing, while the gallery was filled with spectators. At 11 :30 p. M.

all departed for Alling's Dining Hall and partook of the good supper that had been spread by him for the company, alter which they again returned to the dance, which was kept up to a late hour. Among those present were several of the members of the City Council, who seemed to enjoy the festivities greatly.
