Messy Greek Academy.

1t was announced in the Vihdica,or of
last week that the annual Exhibition at
this Institution would take place on FRI
day the 23d inst, and that j. d. Imboden,
Esq, of this place would deliver an ad-
dress. 1t will be seen, however, by no.
tice which appears to-day, that Thursday
the 22d will be the day OF Exhibition, and
that DR.. Junkin. President of w arlington
College, will deliver the address, instead
of Mr. ImbodeD This latter arrangement
has been made at the suggestion of Mr.
Imboden himself, he only having consent
ed to serve as speaker, in the event the
services of DR.. Junkin could not be Sc
cured. We have no doubt the occasion
will be interesting, and that those who
may be present will not regret it.

Reasiing Roo1n.

We are pleased TO see that Mr.. Gresham
is now making arrangements to open a
Reading Room, above his Book store
Room, opposite the Virginia Hotel. He
will have all the prominent dailies of
the United States, aud a great variety OF
weekHes and instructive monthlies and
quarterlies. Each person availing him
self of the privileges and advantages of the
Reading Room, is required to pay S. for
the year-which is as cheap as could be
desired. We trust the enterprise will be
encouraged, and that the proprietor will be
amply rewarded.

Last week cattle declined $3.50 in the

ket, and so cents in the Baltimore market.
If these markets have any influence over
the prices with us, the fact will be gladly
received by our consumers. Beef is now
selling in this market at nine cents per
