We would call the attention Of our corporate
authorities to the condition of the pavement
at the corner of Third and Frederick streets.
The Mounted Guards" new cavalry com.
pany, of our town, organized themselves last
night, by the election Of W. NJ. Stuart, Esq,
Captain Esau Pickrell, First Lieutenant; Ste.
phen Cough, Second Lieutenant; s. D. Linn,
Third Lieutenent; j. Fl. Newman, Orderly
j. A. Barber, Quartermaster. They are fine
body Of men, and will make a fine appearance.
The following additional officers were elected
by the Scott Guards last night, viz: James
White, First Lieutenant; - Lazenby, Second
Lieutenant; John Owens, Third Lieutenant ;
W. F. Williams, Ensign; Wilson, Orderly.
1t would be well if the military of our town
would select officers from their own midst, in
stead Of from other loc ,lities. Care should be
exercised in the selection of members also.
One of the branch mains of the Potomac

would advise all persons who have an ap.
petite for pork flesh to call and see the display
OF porkers to be found at the corner of High
and Bridge streets, at Mr.. W. II. Tenney's. One
might suppose, that if he was secessionst,
he was laying in supply for the South Caro-
lima army. The amount there on hand, and
the quality, are probably not to be surpassed in
the District. | would suppose that he has, at
least, $4,000 pounds on hand. Dealers would
do well to note the fact.
Markets remain unchanged. Pork is selling
from Sc 81 to 800 from wagons, and $7.25
