and onnnot but take some little credit to themselves
for the good which they believe they have done La
earning out their first intention, that of making the
New York Mercury
a medium for the familiarization of the reading
public with the best works of the niot
Distinguished American Authors,
To secure this end, ther have spared no expense f
and whatever they have thought could ratify the
taste of their THOUSANDS up READERS they
have done without questioning either the labor or

tT In our notice on Monday, ol the six iodi
riduals"arrestrdfordruokeansee and disorder"
on Friday sreniog last, we did not intend to
convey the impression that any one of the four
who were let off, had pii the police, or any
body alee, for a clearance. We understood Of
fleer Clark to I ay that 6 persons were arrested;
that two only were fined, while the others were
let oft We preeomed, as he did not say any
thing upon which to form at y other conclusion,
that foar of the men were net before the Mayor.
Hue their discharge waa effected, we did not
know, but suppossd it was dons by begging off,
and a promise not to repeat a like offense. It
is poaaibls that we were unfortunate in choos
ing lsnguags to convey our Impression; we are
very certain that ws did not mean to Insinuate
that any ooe-.lbe Mayor, or any of the police
had dose anything wrong lo the matter.
We hare not bean one of those connected with
the press in this sity who hare been in the
habit of nibbling at the Mayor or police; we
hare not been a "reflex" of complainera, al
though we have heard enough complaints from
all classes of community. We will endeavor
hereafter to learn eU the facta in police opera
tione, before we publish them.
ST Mr. 8chaffer, whose fconee waa the scene

TThe original Forrest Divorce case, it will
be remembered, terminated io January 1852, by
Mrs. Forrest obtaining a judgment of divorce
against her husband with alimony of $3000 pe

was concerned1 and ordered a reference to be

M. Editor. I tse, by your paper, that
Mr, Nichols, recently ' conneoted with the
Phillips Uouae, .in this city, has tuken the
"N eff House," at Yellow Springs, and fitted
it up for the reception of visitors during the
present season.
In years gone by, I hare viaited the Yel
low Springs, and I always considered it one
of the most delightful plaoes of resort, du
ring the summer season in this section of
onuntry. Tb location ia beautiful, health-
fut and romantic in the highest degree.
The water of the Yellow Springs are cele
brated all over the West, for their purity
and sanative qualities, and those in search
of a quiet and pleasantshc of sojourn, du
ring the hot weather, cannot find a more de
sirable locality any where.
The house has been fitted op iq elegant
style, and in that reepeot nothing will be
wanting to eeanre the lessure and comfort
of visitors. Mr. Niohols is a gentleman ad
mirably fitted to oonduot an establishment
of this kind, and all who patronize him may
safely depend upon the very best accommo
dation. The Yellow Springs are situated within
two or three hours drive of Dayton, over
on of the finest turnpikes w have, running
through a delightful section f country. 1
think our citizens, who ere disposed tb enjoy
few days respite from the cares and toils
of city life, can not do better than make the
"NeCrilouBo'1 plaoe of sojourn. Tbey will
secure cordial welcome at the hands of
its gentlemanly proprietor, and nothing will
be omitted on bis part te make it all they
