On Wheels. -The chivalry of the day is not confined to school girls and maidens. At half-past three yesterday a dozen married ladies were noticed on Elm street quietly drawing a barrel of flour and other "fixins," and proceeding up Hanover street, they deposited their "material aid" within the parsonage occupied by Rev. Mr. Clark, of the North Methodist Society. The affair was managed decorously and skillfully.- Kendall, himself could not have drawn the hand-cart with more precision, and a very fitting, off-hand speech was made by Mrs. Sarah W. Young. In the evening, a pleasant party met at Mr. Clark's house, leaving tokens of their regard and good will.
