IMPoRTANT.-Professor Bernhard will positive
ly remain in this city only two or three days long
er. All persons needing his services should call
at once at his Office in the National Hotel. He is
able to cure long standing inflammation and other

chose who are partially blind. His lenses are
pronounced by professional to be the best
adapted to remedy defective vision that have
ever been manufactured. This is probably the

that may be offered in Norfolk for years. Let
all who are afflicted make no delay, but call at

yiNege of the he disguised as, and doust as
heSpleased. This the proprietor would not tole-
rale, and requested the Masquerader to sit down
ahd be quiet, but showing fight, he was knocked
down by rap on the noggin, hence the COM
plant to the Mayor. A man has a perfect right
to keep order in his own house.
Jas Adams, charged with making the streets
a race track, was fined So for the privilege.
John Murphy made complaint to the Mayor,
that Jas Stewart Waterman had threatened

Ann Sykes an unfortunate damsel of bacon hue,

Minister and brother brought suit against Mary
A. Weston for the amount of 500 claimed to be
due on a note.
This case was likewise transferred to the Hust-
PENDANT.
The city was happily peaceful and orderly on
Tuesday night, quite a contrast to the two pre-
ceding intervals of darkness. For the sake of the
reputation of the law abiding citizens, we hope no
more such disgraceful proceedings as occurred on
Sunday and Monday nights, may ever again take
place, for indeed they are reproachtul stigma
upon the standing ofthe whole community.

IA MENT IN CITY LOTS!
THE BEST HOTEL SITE IN THE CITY,

ELEVEN VALUABLEBUILDING LOTS FOR
SALE.
Owing to the great and increasing demand for
Stores, Offices, and Dwelling Houses,
In the central part of the city, the owner has
been induced to offer for sale
THAT VALUABLE UNIMPROVED PIECE OF
PROPERTY AT THE CORNER OF MAIN
AND NEBRASKA STREETS,
On which the old City Hall and Jail formerly
stood.
This property stands next to the centre of bust
aess in the city, and is located of necessity
it must Immediately be brought into requisition
for business purposes, in view of the rapidly i'm
proving condition of the city, and consequent sx-
tension of Stores for the accommodation of trade.
The location of this property is
Midway between the Market House and
the Depot of the Norfolk and
Petersburg Railroad,
Which will be in operation now in a few months.
1t is also
EQUALLY CLOSE TO MOST OF THE
STEAMBOAT LANDINGS.
And the entire site presents an
UNSURPASSED LOCATION FOR A NEW
HOTEL,
Which the increasing business of the city already
calls loudly for. A Hotel built this entire
property could be arranged to have
TWO FINE STORES ON MAIN STREET
AND THE HOTEL ENTRANCE,
Besides Eight or Ten Stores on Ne
braska street,
All of which could be rented at once, so great is
the demand for business locations.
If not sold entire, the property will be divided
eff into eleven Building Lots of rs feet front each,
and sold on terms to suit purchasers. The Lots
fronting on Main street will extend back 100 feet,
and those on Nebraska street extend back from
rs to 80 or 80 feet.
The owner deems it unnecessary to say anything
here regard to the rapidly increasing value Of
this property. Every one familiar to the urgent
demand which already exists for Stores, offices,
and Dwellings must at once see its desirability.
