The tent at the afternoon performance was well filled, and the performance was one of much excellence.

The acrobatic feats were of a high order of exoellence, the Seigrist brothers in particular giving au excellent rfornmi)ce.

Tbe necessary dies, and regulations aud instructions have ltecn received by the postmaster, and all arrangements will be completed to inaugurate it successfully on the date mentioned. Tbe system is the outcome of a very widcfclt need, aud is for the transmission of small sums, nndor five dollars, through tho mails. It closely resembles the money order, but is intended to be an adjunct to that syrtem, aud not to take its place.

A remitter may nt his opinion select either the money order or the postal notes as a means of remitting money by mail Dot aoiiwtut Bra UiAirnioa tuat postal note Is sent the remitter's risk, while the government is responsible for the pay-ment of a money order to the true payee. The postal note consists of an engraved form about the size of a bank note. Two columns on the left side give the months and yenrs up to 1804. Iu the wide colnnin a post office mark for when sent tho fee vignette, three cents, and the dated stamp of the paying office. The body of tbe note gives the conditions und instructions, being used "To the postmaster of the money order office at to bearer, nt any time withiu three mouths from the last day of the month of issue, the sum of blank dollars blank cents signed by the postmuKter.

This is also payable to bearer at the office of issue, with the same limitations as to time. If lost or destroyed no duplicate thereof i.unoil Ti. right-hand column contains the figures for uouurs, iiimes and eeuts. The amount ranges from one cent to fonr dollars and ninety-nine cents. When the amount is five dollars, it becomes a money order.

The uniform fee is three cent. The note obviates the trouble of sending silver or stamps by mail. It is a currency payable to bearer, and as such is almost the same as the money itself, the only difference being limitation upon the payment. A Polar! Accident to a Child.

Communicated. The Fire 4artla. Mkssrs Editors. Iu yesterday's issue of your paper I noticed nn article beaded "The Fire Department Question" over the signature of "Volunteer Firemnn." The author of the said articlo states that he has been a volunteer fireman for sixteen years aud that he know soniething of the ins and onts of the system. He further says that be ia heartily iu favor of a paid department from the fact that he thinks it would not only be in the end cheaper than the present system to tbe city, but would pay the ones wbo are no the backbone of the department, to say nothing of the willful carelessnes which occurred at tbe Lebach fire on Saturday night last.

It may be that tbe gentleman has been a volunteer fireman for sixteen years but I doubt it unless he gives us bis name. There is some difference between uu active, live fireman and a volunteer fireman such as the author of the article in question, and if we had their names off the respective companies, books it would 1e better for tbe companies, for they are of no nsc or benefit to tbo department at all. What we want is live, active, volunteer firemen. He ulso says that paid fire department would be cheaper to the city in the cud thau the present, volunteer fire system. If he thinks such wonld be the case why didn't he give ns the facts to prove it.

He failed to do it. I feel satis- liedjn my mind that he knows nothing about the cost of running with a paid or volunteer department. I doubt it very much if he is at the present time an active firemen of the department. I also feel pretty well satisfied (that he knows very little about the ins and outs of the present system. Let us have your name.

The active volunteer firemen wonld like to know who yor are. Come, dou't be ashamed to let ns know your name. Yours Respectfully As ACTIVK FIRF.MAX. A Laaarvltf Sariety rajaalaea'. A peculiar association, designed tohe national, was organized under a speeVl charter in Erie on Wednesday.
